States ASSAY offices at New York, Boise
City. Idaho, and at Charlotte. North
Carolina.
Section 81 provided that this act shall
be known as the .scoinage act of 1873,
and it also repealed all other acts and
parts of acts pertaining to the mints
and assay offices and coinage of the
United States, inconsistent with the
provisions of this act.
The principal changes made by the
law of 1873 was: /. Making the gold
dollar consisting of 25.S ounces the
unit of value. For eighty years prior
to that time the silver dollar had been
the unit of value. 2. The standard
dollar was dropped from the coinage
and the coinage of the trade dollar,
I! grains heavier, was authorized. ).
The legal tender quality of silver in
amounts exceeding S. was taken away.
In the act OF 1873 nothing is said of
ratio. but the ratio of silver to gold was
virtually increased. for the weigt of
the gold dollar remained at 25.S grains
standard gold. while the weight of the
silver dollar was increased.

Los Angeles, March /.

i>os aASSicst mhiSh IL
The dried fruit trade seems to have recov-
cred from its long period Of stagnation. A
marked improvement has manifested itself
within the past few weeks. The local repre-
sentative OF j. X. Ormsby & Co who handle a
large portion OF the dried fruit product OF Cali
fornia, reports business good since about the
middle of February. Shipments are quite
heavy now, as compared with the earlier part
OF the season. good many car Dads have
gone to Chicago and other Eastern distributing
points recently.
Prices have improved a shade. but the ad-
vance is not commensurate with the increased
demand. The average price for apricots in
carload lots is about sc, peaches SIC, prunes
q4c and pears DC.

prices have an upward tendency
Pears also show considerable improvement

Quite large amount OF very choice fruit re-

not keep pace with that for peaches
D. Prunes remain weak.
Nectarines exist only in such small quaint
ties as to be not worth quoting for the general
trade.
The following dispatch from San Francisco is
of particular interest, as it discoses an anon
ay in regard to the prune market Dried
fruits are quoted in the local market at figures
considerably higher than the wholesale
prices in Chicago:
San Francisco March Lit was stated at the
meeting of the Horticultural Society today
that dealers are keeping up the price OF prunes
in this city to double the figures they sell at in
the remote mining districts OF the state and
for higher prices than they sell for in Chicago.
