APPLE MARKET.
AUSTRALIAN OFFICER’S INVESTIGATION. fiy Cable—Press Association—Copyright. Australian and N.Z. Cabio Ar-ociation, (Received April 29, 5.5 p.m.) LONDON, April 29. A special officer sent from Australia House to report bn the marketing of apples at Liverpool, Manchester and Hull, says tho prices are most disappointing despite the quality being good though there are some exceptions. The setback in prices could ho attributed, partly to the presence of stored American apples, and partly to the arsenic scare concerning American fruit, from which the public did not distinguish. The Australian health officers at the three ports, unanimously absolved Australian apples from containing sufficient arsenic to require action.
