THE SUGAR MARKET.
A Strong Advance i'm Cuban and
Manila RaWS.

The San Francisco correspondent of
the ADVERTISER sends us the good news
of a further advance in sugars, both in
the Manila and Cuban basis, each being
quoted at nearly one-fifth cent higher
than at our latest advices. German beet
has also advanced AID, and all the mar
kets are firm and very strong, This up
ward tendency of the sugar market is
confined to raws, as refined in New
York has remained quiet for some time,
though there is an advance since our
latest reports. Our correspondents in
formation from the various sugar centers
of the world is as follows
THE LONDON MARKET
There has been a much healthier tone
apparent, and a considerable business
done in refining West India at frmer
rates. Fast India kinds have also been
in more request. Beet root has fuctu-
ated but slightly. Floating cargoes con-
tinue to attract attention. Grocery crys-
tallized has been in more request, and
good trade has been done privately at
full prices to slight advance. This APP
plies more particularly to brighter par
cells, which appear to be now scarce, the
bulk of the sugar now on sale being pale
and gray undesirable kinds.
THE NEW YORK MARKET.
The market has ruled active and firm
at prices that show a further advance
and indicate the buoyancy OF the market
Refners have shown disposition to sup
ply their wants steadily from spot
stock, and the increasing demand for re-
fined, as well as the hardening tendency
of the London market, has increased the
confidence of buyers as well as sellers,
and resulted in higher prices being paid.
In refined there has been a steady i'm
provement in the demand, which has
absorbed all the available offerings at
hardening prices, and in some instances
refiners have sold ahead. On one Occa-
sion the market was swept clean before
noon without meeting the demand,
which was so urgent that a further adj
vance could have been obtained had
there been anything to sell.
In giving our latest quotations on Sep
tember 18th, the day OF the departure OF
the Alameda from San Francisco, 1t IS
advisable to draw attention to the facl
that there have been two advances in
the Manila grade since our former
advices. On September LIST, Manila
raws were quoted at 5.53 cents, but they
subsequently advanced to $50 cents,
and, on the 14th instant, further rise of
one-tenth to so cents took place. This
is a total increase of II within a fort
night. The advance in European beet
sugars occurred some time before the de-
parture of the steamer, which explains
our report, on 18th instant, that the mar
ket was firm though not quotably
higher. Our latest quotations stand
thus:

SUGAR SUBJECTS.
Ahe California Refinery Advances
Two Cents "a Pound on all Grades.

The special correspondent of the AD-
VERTIsER, writing from San Francisco
on the 10Th instant, states that the great
est sensation in sugar circles on the
Coast, far exceeding that of the rumored
sale OF Hawaiian sugars to the American
Refinery, occurred on the announcement
OF an advance OF two cents a pound on
all grades by the California Refinery.
IhIS announcement was made on the
morning that the Alameda sailed. AT
present the California Refinery has
everything in it's own hands, the i leri-
can Refinery having little or no ,tocks,
and not expecting any from Manila for
about sixty days. The California Re-
tinery has $4,000, 900 pounds of raw and
refined sugar in store, which, at the adj
vanced rate of two cents pound, means
clear profit of 81 100000 within the
next few months, when it will be dis
posed Of The jobbing grocers of San
Francisco are not displeased with the
change, as there is no money in sugar
when prices are low. Those who have
supplies on hand, which they purchased
at low rates, are exceedingly jubilant.
The American Refinery Company has
been singularly unfortunate in its opera
tons since the commencement of the
new order ofSthings. It's excavations
for the new building are suspended pend
ing the termination of law suit between
English & Co. and the San Francisco
Bridge Company. It's wharf, shed and
several thousand bricks have all col
lapsed into the sea. 1t has no sugar on
hand, and cannot obtain any for several
months. Its new building even when COM
pleted, will be insufficient to manufac-
ture the increased product that it will
have to handle, allowing for the quantity
necessary to be stored, even in process of
manufacture, and provided that every
pound of sugar be sold as soon as it is
manufactured. This fact can easily be
ascertained by anybody who cares to
calculate the cubic contents of the pro-
posed new structure and to make allow
ance for the space that Will be occupied
by machinery and handling Further
than this, their capital is insufficient
to cope with the plans originally outlined
and which will be necessary to insure a
successful business arrangement. In
the meantime the California Refinery,
having no opposition to contend with,
the sugar market strengthening through
out the world, and having advanced its
local prices for refined, will net about
million dollars profit within a few
months.
We quote the present rates OF sugar, as
sold by the California Refinery, from
18th instant, thus

Owing to collapse of portion of the
Filbert-street wharf, San Francisco, the
American Sugar Refinery lost about 10000
bricks, which were precipitated into the
water. These bricks were part of con-
sienment of $50, 900 intended for the addi-
ton to the refinery.
Hawaiian Commercial Company's stock,
which had advanced in San Francisco to
S124, was quoted on the departure of the
Alameda at S1OA. Holders were asking $11.

Cavi..r the Russian Relish.
FRANK Leslie's Illustrated

Caviar, the welLknown Russian relish,
is made from the roes of large fish,
especially the sturgeon. The process OF
manufacturing consists in thoroughly
cleaning the roe from its membranes;
salt is then mixed in, and the liquor
pressed out, after which the caviar is
dried and packed for SALE The best kind
is usually packed in kegs. while an inferior
quality is made into small thin cakes
Although Russia almost monopoliZes this
branch of commerce, Hamburg has also
taken up the industry.
