Poor Quantity of Vaienciu Rafsin.

fered the trade lately has been anything
but satisfactory. Many grocer whose
chief aim is to furnish good goods to his
trade has already found this fact out,
and others will later on.
A large portion of the crop this season
has been seriously injured by rain and
in very many instances the first
was not fit for consumption. The
Spanish packers, disregarding the
unfitness of many Of the crops, have
packed them in boxes, and those boxes
are now in this country. They have, in
order to deceive the buyer, placed good
fruit on the top and the poor below, so
that the grocer who locks at the top only
feels he is getting the same grade all
through the box, and only discovers hi,
mistake when he begins to retail them
Some of the trade that has discovered
the trick Of the Spanish traders, Offset it
so to speak-by offering the goods at q
low price in order to get rid of them
The retailer, however, who wants his
customers to have good goods, does not
want these raisins at any price. The
grocer who doesn't care what kind his
customers get, wants them to be sure
that he is not paying full price for them

WASHINGTON, December 3.-Long be-
fore the hour for the meeting of the Sec
end session Of the E,iftieth Congress the
public galleries were filled with specta-
tors. On the floor handshaking was in
dnlged in, and congratulations on re
election or condolences on defeat were
exchanged among the members.
Jocose raillery on the part of the
Republicans and patient resig-
nation on the part Of the Demo
Gratis was everywhere evident.
The Republican members who are prom
inently mentioned in connection with the
Speakership came in for an extra share
of felicita,ion, it being generally con.
ceded on the floor that the next House
will be Republican with from three to
seven majority. When Randall entered

On motion OF Mills, OF Texas, reeolu-

That portion of the message in which

derision, would appear upon the face Of
some enthusiastic Republicans, but the

, Complication of Receiverships.

CHICAGO, December 3.-This afternoon
Judge Tuley, OF the Superior Court, is
sued rule on Judge Prendergast. of the
County Court, forbidding him to proceed
to appoint receiver for the bankrupt
firm Of Lindaner Bros. & Co., clotbiers.
Judge Prendergast held that Judge
Tuley had no jurisdiction in the prem
ises, and proceeded to appoint a
receiver. He named Michael ].
Schwersthal, Of the International Bank
as assignee. The matter was further
complicated this afternoon by the action
of Judge Horton who, on petition of the
attorneys for the insolven,s and several
New York creditors, appointed Bernard
Kuppenheimer receiver for the failed
firm. 1t is said the petition of these
creditors was part of plan to outwit
Judge Prendergast, and they certainly
now have the best of the matter, as Re.
ceiver Kuppenheimer took complete pos
session of the property tonight before
Assignee Schwersthal put in an appear
ance. According to Judge Tuley's rule
Judge Prendergast must explain his

MORMON CHURCH PROPERTY.
4 Motion TO Advance the Case In
the Supreme Court.

WASHINGTON, December In the Su-
preme Court to-day Hon. G. F. Richards,
of Salt Lake, made a motion for the ad-
vancement of the case of the United
States vs.. the Mormon Church for the
forfeiture and escheatment of church
property to the Government, an appeal
from decree of the Supreme Court of
Utah. After stating the claims of the
Government and of the appellants. the
following reasons were given for the ad.
vancement of cause, viz That it is a
cause in which the United States is a
party, that it involves the constitution
ality OF certain acts Of Congress; that it
affects not only the people OF Utah, but
the rights of church corporations OF every
denomination in the Territories, and
is therefore a question of public in
terest; that large amount of
church property had been seized and
is now held by receiver, much of it be-
ing Of a perishable nature and thus liable
to ire eparable loss and damage if left till
the case can come up to it's order, and
the delay, with the great expenses en-
tailed, will amount to virtual confisca-
ton Of said property that nearly half a
million dollars Of personal property has
been thus seized, when there is no law
or semblance of law for the seizure of
personal property; that part of the real
estate so seized has been held by eaid
Church for over thirty-fve years and be-
fore the act of 1862 was passed, limiting
the amount of real estate to be held by
Church corporations, and that another
part has been held as parsonage and is
exempted in the terms of law. For
these and other reasons appellants ask
an early hearing Of the case. Counsel
for Government offered no objection.
The Court took the matter under advise
ment.

the attraction for tomorrow night.

that the company's elegant costume
will not be soied, a street parade will
be given at about 10 80 o'clock in the
forenoon.
"The Black Flag" was given at the
Opera House last night to a fair au-
dience. The company is above me-

ially effective. The leading roles
were sustained by r. G Guptill and
Marie De Lano.
