CALIFORNIA RAIs1Ns.

NEW YORK, Sept. 2O.-The Journal Of Com
merce says: The present situation in Califor
MIA raisins does not seem to be at all satsfac
tory to commission merchants in the East.
Accepting prices and terms made by the Cali
fornia Raisin- Growers Association they have
gone ahead and sold freely for September ship
ment and in very short time understand
all that Is available for September shipment
had been contracted for. Then sellers in the
Eastern market solicited and obtained orders
for the first half of the October shipment, but
before many of these orders were confirmed
notice was sent out by the association that the
time for shipments at the opening prices had
been extended to midnight, October 50 only, af-
ter which 1t was probable that an advance of
Ac per pound would be made by the associa-
ton and all goods SHIPPED after that date would
be subject to increased price. Sellers are in
doubt to whether the increased prices will
g. and which could not be shipped on or before
that date only to orders for the October
shipment that might be received on the Sth of
that month or thereafter. If first, merchants
here claim unjust advantage will be taken by
the association in putting higher price on or
ders that were received, Int could not be con-
frmed before the time at which the prices
would go into effect. good deal of telegraph
ing to the coast was done to-day, we under
stand, with a view to ascertaining just what
sellers here are to expect, but-up to the close
nothing definite seemed to have been obtained
Many of the local commission merchants seem
to think that they have not been we'll treated
by the association and of them go so
far to intimate that II the present course
of that organization is persisted in, it's influ-
ence be lost.
