Sugar Prospects I'm Louisiana and
Cuba.
The New Orleans Times says:

The New Orleans Times says: rH
1t is now generally conceded by those
who have taken the trouble to inform
themselves upon the subject, that the
yield OF sugar in Louisiana this yearrwill
be much smaller than was at first antici-
Pa ed Our country exchanges confirm
this opinion by their crop reports. The
excessive rains, Listing Throughout the
period when she cane required the most
tention being given to it, but permitted
the grass and weeds to grow up
and impeding their growth. Ia some
cases the cane could not be properly '"iafd
by " on this account, and the consequent
ces of these mischances is a very back
ward crop on nearly every sugar estate in
Louisiana. In the Island of Cuba the
very reverse seems to be the case. The
weather has been more than usually IA
vorable, no mishaps of any nature have
occurred, and there is every prospect at
present that the labors or the Cuban
planters will be rewarded with a most
abundant yield of cane sweets.

The week closes on the cheapest money
All of the lea ring borrowers have rad
their wants promptly provided for at the
extraordinarily low rate.ofs3 per cent. on
the public funds, and 4 per cent. on rail-
way and other acceptable stock collater-
ais. The available supply has been far
greater than the requirements of the street.
The demand has been almost exclusively
speculative. The stock exchange and gold
room brokers have been the principal ap-
plicants for accommodation. The offer
ings OF prime commercial paper have
been limited, and have found ready
market at from 51z961z, theihside rate for
the very best selection.
