QUIET MARKET FOR DRIED FRUITS.

NEW YORK. Feb. 21--The Journal Of Com
merce says: The market for dried fruits as a
whole still presents a very quiet appearance
Raisins are unsettled in sympathy with ad-
vices from the coast regarding uncertainty OF
the future of the combination Currants are
easier. There is more demand for peaches ana
apricots and the market is firmer, but not
quotably higher.
In California the loose muscatel raisin mar
ket is dull and the feeling is unsettled in view
of the uncertainty TO what may be the out
come of the mass meeting of growers in March,
when the fate OF the California Raistn Grow
ers' Association will be settled one way or
the other. The general impression seems to
be that the combination will not be renewed.
So far as the resolutions Of the combine
garding the disposition that is to be made
OF cheap stock are concerned traders In the
East do not feel any more treasured by them
than they felt before the claim was being
made that there is nothing to prevent wineries
from reselling these goods below the market
prices. a they have done before.
