The press dispatches announce
the death of "Billn Briggs, II noted
gambler, in San Francisco, with rs
much solcmnity as if II great bene-
factor to the world had departed
this life. Briggs in many respects
was man superior to his class, and,
says the Telegram, it is doubtful as
to whether there is an old Cali
fornian in the city of Portland who
did not know the departed sport
either 10y sight or reputation.
In 1874, II Telegram reporter had II
TREND In san Francisco who was at
that time paymastcr's clerk ON the
man-of-war Pensacola. This person
was engaged to marry, but he was
almost strapped of funds, having
only $500, In moment Of despcri-
ton he visited Briggs faro rooms
and won Sl2,OOO, During the time
he played he drank considerably,
aud when Briggs saw what II con
dition he was in he directed his
"dealcrS" not to allow the young
man TO play amy moro, Briggs took
the money from him aud had him
put to bed, The following day the

SUGAR producers in the West
Indies are thought to be trying to
corner raw sugar. The stock
IN hand in this country is only
about One-third what It was a
ycarngo, ard supplies are difficult
to obtain. Cargoes arriving are
small and deliveries on contracts are
made earlier in the season. Within
two months raw sugar has advanced
/. cents and refined sugar | cent.
As the American consumption is
more than 1000, ,0O0 tons Il year, the
increased cost to the country will be
over So, ,OOO, ,OO0 at the present price.
But the advance is not likely to
stop there The sugar refining trust
is evidently preparing to take adj
vantage Of the situation and its
certificates went up rapidly last
week on the exchange, where they
