CALIFORNIA RAIsINs IN THE EAST.

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-The Journal of Com
merce under this date says: On spot loose
raisins are scarce. and though there seems TO
be comparatively little demand the market Is
firm. Recent arrivals. however. appear to nave
been ample in rather quiet condition OF con-
sunfnr trade to cover immediate needs Of
consumption but full deliveries, we under
stand, have been impossible because of tardi-
ness of shipping lines. and some of the re-
ceivers here are said to h far behind in their
deliveries this account.
California London layers and clusters are
scarce and under increasing demands the
market is firm. Foreign raisns are firm under
small Offering and fair consuming demand
There Is a firm feeling in the market for
larger sizes of California prunes, but quota
lions on smaller fruit seem to favor buyer
For either old or 40s alone holders are
Indifferent, sellers and prices are higher Old
4Os are closely cleaned up, and small sales
have been made up to 9l3c. New 4Os are said
TO be very difficult to obtain except in con-
junction with 50-60s and 60-70s, when If equal
quantities of each in 25-lb boxes are taken, &c
will be accepted. -
Nominal quotation for new 4Os alone is s1a0
1012c in 25-lb boxes. according to holder. April
cots are firm, but we hear OF few sales either
for home or export account.
