The New York Commercial says, under date of September 20: ‘‘There s some increase i activity in California raisins, due to the an- nounced purpose of the assoclation to advance prices Yc after October 5. Supplies for Sep- tember shipment are exhausted, and most buy- ers are purchasing for October, but no rates are possible beyond October 8. The association has ‘said that rates would probably go up at that time, and unless the declaration is modi- fled, purchases for October will be compara- tively small until after the change. It was sald yesterday, however, that perhaps 20 cars had been taken for Octber shipment at pres- ent figures, though the statement was uncon- | firmed. ‘ommission men are not entirely satisfied | with their treatment by the assocation, but few care to express their views openly. They feel, however, that too much uncertainty has prevailed, and even now they do not know whether 'the assoclation will advance prices or not. The latest information Is that If the officers think best prices will be advance But that Is too indefinite to ingure steady busi- ness or satisfactory dealing in any form. ““There is nothing new in prunes, Prices are unchanged, and trade inclined to be moderate, Demand 18 largely confined to large sizes, of which there are none procurable. Medlum slzes are all the trade can get, and there Is no prospect of any change in the situation. Futures attract little interest, even In the face of short crop reports, which are being con- firmed dally.” The local market is quiet and unchanged.

N. Westheimer, managing director of the Standard Consolidated Mining Company, says: ‘While in accumulating our cash one or more dividends may have been held in the treasury, we beliéve in this conservative manner of pro- viding through the means of a larger capital in the future for still greater results, and we are thus enabled to acquire new properties of value if such present themselves to us, and having on September 1, 1598, $80,000 cash on hand, with but our usual output, we will have by January 1, 1889, besides providing for an- other dividend, $100,000 cash on hand, thus hav- ing pald three dividends of 10c each on a stock selling under $1 75 and our mines in excellent shape for future work, besides our large sur- plus o secure our position. During the past year our able superintendent has opened up several new producing points, from which we hope to get extensive ore.” BTOCK AND BOND EXCHANGE. MONDAY, Sept. 26—2 p. m Bid. Ask. Bid. Ask.
