Journal of Commerce says : A few years ago New York waa the distributing center in the East for Cali fornia dried fruits. Nearly all of the business in the territory east of Buffalo and Pittsburg and north of BaltimDre, was conducted through the jobbers of the city. At present, according to state ments of prominent members of the trade, there is practically none of thia outside trade left to the city, as in recent years the practice has increased among the shippers of . dried fruita in Califor nia of consigning their goods to local points Aa a result of tbia change, trade here has suffered severely.

The general opinion of the trade seems to be that all classes of these fruits have been affected by the change, but that it has been most noticeable in the case of THE INSURGENTS ROUTED.
