The New York Commercial says: Demand
appears to be increasing in nearly all lines.
and there are fractional advances in some de-
partments.
The ralsin situation is clearing since the
recent change in prices. Dealers are making
freer purchases, and the opinion seems to pre-
vail that the combination is able TO maintain
prices II this is true, the situation Is much
better than IL ever has been, and the outlook
for growers IS more encouraging than in pre-
vious years. In sympathy with increased prices
on the coast there has been slight advance
here but insufficient TO make any difference
in trade.
"Prunes are steady at previous quotations
and all spot supplies are held firm. All large
sizes are scarce and practically unobtainable
except in mixed lots to move less desirable
goods Italian prunes coming from Washing
ton and Oregon are deficient in large sizes. and
are held firm in this market and in first hands
No French prunes have come forward as yet,
and the probability IS that none will come
owing to difference in prices. There would
be profit in shipping prunes TO this market
at present quotations. and the possibility or
the future scarcely warrants 1t.
''Apricots are steady and prices unchanged
Holders are firm in their views and indisposed
to make concessions to secure trade. Peaches
are in the same condition. There are few in
first hands, and all supplies in this market are
concentrated -

EASTERN MARKETS.
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET

NEW YORK. Nov. 1s.-Apparently the
watchers who have been waiting for reaction
in the market TO buy stocks made up their
minds that this mornings decline was the most
that could be looked for under the circum-
stances and they accordingly came into the
market in great force, and before the end of the
day had wiped out the earlier losses almost
entirely and established a higher range of
values than yesterday throughout. Although
net gains are in nearly all cases confined to
fractions. the extreme rise from the low point

and quite strong at the top Morning losses
