Viticulturists Would Smile if Prices Were to
Go Up
New YORK, Jan. 24.-There is a good
deal of talk among the west side frIlit men
about a corner in raisins. Some of the
largest handlers of raisins have been TAX
ing all of the loose muscatels they can
gather in, and it is supposed their purpose
has been to corner the market, as they are
not offering the fruit freely in the public
market
The quality known in the trade as ''three
crowns" is the favorite brand bought by
the combine" and report has it that the
consgnments shipped from the Pacific
coast TO interior points have been placed
under the control of the cornerers.
Some say that certain influential men,
bers OF the fruit trade will resist any at
tempt OF a combine to unduJy advance the
price of raisins, and the outlook is for
merry war in the near future among those
who deal largely in these goods.
