Condition Of the Market in New
York.
New York, Feb 2.-The situation of
the market in California raisins is with
out the slightest sign of Improvement.
London Layers, the well-known brand,
have been sold as low as 81 so, and some
OF the finest in the market at 81 %,
whilst stock considered a trifie ''offs' is
offered at 81 75. Correspondingly low
figures are named on loose raisins in
boxes. The bag stock has also depreci-
ated. From the line out of which sales
were made at 64c for Three Crown and
5ic for Two Crown early in the week
transactions We're recorded Saturday at
&c and DC, respectively. The goods are
not claimed to be frst-class in every par
ticular; but slight inferiority is no offset
to the reduction in price. In some GUAR
ters it is intimated thai the stock of Cali
fornia goods in this market is nearer 100
than seventy-tive carloads.
California prunes moved off in a quiet
way to a very fair extent the past week.
Stocks here are comparatively light at
present. In most quarters a confident

CONGRESSIONAL.
THE FORTIFTCATIONS BILL DIS
CUSSED IN THE SENATE.
Reduction Made in the Appropriation
for Gun and Mortar
Batteries.

Special to the RECORD UNION
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-The Senate met
at 2 P. NJ.
Turpie introduced joint resolution
(which was referred to the Committee on
Judiciary proposing an amendment to
the Constitution for the election of United
States Senators by direct vote of the
people.
Sherman asked immediate action upon
the measure referring to the treaty with
the Hawaiian Islands. The Executive
officers, said he, are now embarrassed
from the fact that duties are being levied
in violation of the treaty, and this fact is
disturbing very seriously the condition
of American affairs in the islands.
After some discussion, Sherman said
that in the absence of Carlisle he would
not press the bill now, but would ask the
Senate to consider it at the very earliest
possible moment.
The fortifications bill was then taken
up.
The amendment reported by the COM
mlttee to reduce the appropriation for gun
and mortar batteries for the defense of
the harbors of Boston, New York, San
Francisco, Hampton Roads and Wash
ington from 81 100000 to $3.50, 900 gave rise
to discussion, Dolph opposing the amend
ment, and speaking at much length on
the necessity OF gun factory on the Pa
cific coast.
Cockrell favored the amendment.
Discussion was continued by Hawley
and Blair. The latter offered an amend-
ment looking to an international confer
enee for the suppression Of the slave trade
and the trade i'll intoxicating LIQUORS fire.
arms and gunpowder in Africa.
Cocl>rell read the report of the confer
ence OF American nations on the subject
of international arbitration, and arpued
that the appropriations for war prepara-
tlons was placing the United States in q
false light.
Dawes stated that the reason why a re-
duction in the appropriation had been
recommended was that there was an unex-
pended balance OH hand for the same
works of 81 ,22l 900, which, with the sum
recommended. would make within 81. 900
of the S2,000,000 to be expended.
The amendment was finally agreed to
and the Senate adjourned.

STOCKTON SENSATION.
The District Attorney Refuses to Rec

The District Attorney Refuses to Rec
cgnize Certificates of Deposit.
STOCKTON (Cal.), Feb. 2.-The new
District Attorney created sensation in
banking circles to-day by refusing to
recognize the certificate of special deposit
in the bank as legal equivalent for
money. When the new Treasurer took
office last month he received certificate
of deposit in one of the local banks, and
charging the depositary, accepted their
certificate for coin, his bondsmen being
principally stockholders of the bank.
The county, furnishes no safe place for the
money, and it is the custom to deposit it
IL local banks.
When the Chairman of the Board of
Supervisors, the Auditor and District At
torney called to count the money this
morning, a certificate of special deposit
for S250,C00 was not recognized by the
District Attorney, while the other officers
were ready to accept it. The count was
not made, and there is talk of taking the
matter into the courts.

TRADE RELATIONS WITH CANADA.

TORONTO, Feb. 2.-The Empire. the

Blaine Baker correspondence, says:
Blaine remarks that there are no nego-
tiations whatever on for reciprocity
treaty with Canada. Doubtless the Sec
tary is correct, but the Empire affirms it
is true that Blaine expressed to the Brit
ish Embassador at Washington desire
tormore extended trade relations with
Canada, and that he would like to dis
cuss in an unofficial manner with Sir
Julian Pauncefote and one or more dele
gates from Canada, the whole question of
trade relations, with view to arriving at
a basis for official negotiations We are
are in position to state that, acting on
this suggestion, the Canadian Govern
ment has requested the Imperial Govern
nent to propose joint commission for
the purpose named.'

Emin ignored the orderto found station
on Victoria Nyanza. Instead he hoisted
a flag at Tabora, in spite of Commissioner
Sclamidfs efforts to dfssuade him, the
commissioner objecting on the ground of
great expense. Emin spent 150 600 marks,
instead of &c, 600 marks allowed him. He
repeatedly complains of the insufficiency
OF his supplies, owing to which, he says,
his men were becoming mutinous. He
therefore declines responsibility for the
