Indies, .c6ietiS the islands -of Cuba and Por,o
Rico, US the result of much more abundant
sugar crop at each Of these localities This prod
uet OF the cane has however ceased 10 be In a
great measure, an article of direct consumption,
as In former years, about 30 per cent OF The i'm
poTtations of foreign molasses being reboied In
domestic establishments for the purpose OF ex.
lracting the unerystalized or bastard sugar that
itcontains. and the remaining 20 per cent repre-
senting the quantity delivered for dill, ct
consumption. since the manufacture OF glu'
cose reached its present proportions, pure, I'M
| adulterated molasses has lost lis ident'iy rs an
article of direct consumption, nine-tenths of
what IL sold throughout the country AS mo-
lasses or syrup for table use being simply a
mixture or initiation composed largely of corn
syrup or glucose, Of which no adequate idea OF
| the actual consumption can be formed.
| The importati0ns OF foreign molRsSss are
chiefly used for reboiling. These operations,
which have been carried on at philadelphia,
have consumed 2269G7 hogsheads, Of which
| Philadelphia used 1854 hOgsheads, New York
5000 hogsheads, Boston IL, 0iS hogsheadS, Balti-
more 1856 hogsheads, Portland $500 hogs
| heads; against total OF or hogsheads In
1881, s7io do In lsso, 2ls,0 do in iS79 100 Oo0
do. in 1878 and ~ 900 do. In 1877 The pro-
duc,ion of bastard sugar in 1852 amounts to
cLl5G tons, which is said to be the

boiling establishments. 1t has. been
sold exclusively to refiners, ranging in
price from ga cents up 10 81 cents y ID for SS
,st while the residuum, known as black strap,
or sugar-hOuse mOlRSses. has iluctunted between
1907 Gents q gallon for ordinary and extra
heavy qualities.
The receipts of foreign molGsses at the Allan
tic and Gulf ports for the year lSS! have
amounted 10 3SGj6,375 gallons, against q, 49,
1859 gallons in 1881. an increase of l2lS9.2l6 gGl-
Ions, o. about i6.05 per cent, while the con
sumption OF foreign Is llFiO7l gallons in ex-
cess of last year OF an increase OF 1899 per cent,
Tho yield OF the domestic crop obtained from
Louisiana, Texas and other southern statos is
materially smaller than that of the previous
year. In the first named state. according to the
reliable authority, Mr.. A. Bouchereau, OF Now
Orleans uniavOflble weather and reduced acre
age OF cane resulted In short sugar crop aud n
reduced yield OF mOasses, although the average
per centage obtained was greater, owing TO the
green condition of the cane when harvested.
The production OF the Louisiana crop du-
ring the crop year 1881 So the bulk of which
was distributed during 1882, amounted to
963l, lOi gallons, of which there was received ut
New Orleans 100 92S barrels, against S26,36l do,
or 1928 e29 gallons in 1881. In the other states
where cane Is grown It is estimated that the pro-
duction reached 230S. S96 gallons, which, added
to the above, gives total domestic production
OF l2OOoO0O gallons, against l6,OOlOOO do. In
1881 Adding this Quantity to the consumption
of foreign cane, moasses gives total consump-
ton of 49, 100 HS gallons, against A. 0S6 377 ditto
in 1881, an increase of 7l7i,O7l gallons, or H. OS
percent. Respecting the prospects of the crop
that will come TO haud next month and form the
sources OF this years supply, there does not
Gem to be any reason for apprehending any
material falling of as compared with last year. |
AT nearly all the nearby West India Islands the
crop Is late, but the yield, IL Ia thought will be
fair one. rather above the average and closely
appr0Xlmating II not equal TO, that of 1881. The
domestic yield will necessarily be n large one.
since the sugar crop Is estimated as the largest
Qt th.s .t..Va
to January 18th amounted to 2il,9Si barrels, |
against 1880 same time last year. The better |
grades appear TO be comparatively scarce, tho !
