SUGAR SCANDAL IN HAVANA.-lnforma-
ton from Cuba reflects upon high officials,
who are charged with filling their own peck
cts and bellies in the midst OF the war. Men
have done such things before, and it was
strongly suspected that something of the
sort was done in this country during the
lste unpleasantness. In the Havana case
it is stated:
"In respect to confscated sugars, the
Roberts family are now the talk of Havana.
Mr.. Lopez Roberts, who ID civil Governor,
and has charge of the business OF conhsca-
tion has a brother who is q broker, and To
whom the sugar is turned over to be sold
The amount of confscated sugars is now
very large, and they are all sold by the
brother of the civil Governor. No one
knows what they bring. A large lot coming
from the estate of Senior Mora (San Joa.
ouin) has been lately sold to Perez and
Meyeros, Spanish spectators. These gen
tlemen would not report the price ct when
the sugars were bought, even when pressed
for on answer by some of their friends ana
other brokers. Bills of exchange to the
amount of $500, 900 are reported as having
been drawn recently in favor OF Lopez no
berts, the civil Governor"
Half million is o most respectable LOAF
