CALIFORNIA RAIsINs IN NEW YORK

NEW YORK, Nov. 7.-The Journal of Com merce says: Recent arrivals of California raj sins have been freer than for some time past. but are still below the quantity expected. and the market is kept closely cleaned up. An active demand for seeded for holiday trade keeps seeders working night and day, and they are still much behind in deliveries. Next weeks receipts of loose and layers are expected to be quite large, three steamers are ex- pected from New Orleans. and these, 1t is understood, will be quickly followed by two others.
