The sugar Market
The Trust has been yainIy 81

have but one weeks supply and the
season II al hand during which the
largest consumption takes place.
Total stocks il the world amount 70
$4,000 tons which Is $4,000 tons
less than year ago.
In London the market for beet sd
gar Is quoted at 23-. 81. for April and
Z35. 4 4. for May delivery. Raw su-
gar l. now higher than the highest
point touched IN 1892 which was : u

very satisfactory little margin OF
profit The advance has been steady
and continuous and seems likely u

for raws. and graduated Is now
quoted at s. cents per pound in San

first to receive the 7.47 basis.
The New York Shipping List Of
April 10Th says: The situation IN
the country Is singularIy unique.
because the direct importation II
sugar for sale IN this market has
been almost abandoned and accord
ingIy rehners have been obliged To
enter producing markets IN cOmpeti-
ton with buyers from other cOnsum
ing countries in order 10 secure their
necessary supplies. while holders,
approaching the advantageous posi-
ton that they occupy. have held
their stocks with stubbOrnnes4.
Still another feature that has been
very disappointing TO buyers l. the
fact that high prices have failed to
bring out the more liberal supplies
upon which they confidently relied. :"
In Cuba some holders are asking
as high as 81 cents for 50 centri-
fugaIs. This Is equivalent to a
shade more than S cents in New
York. II the present European
prices are maintained, then S cents
will have yet to be paid in New

The Deputy High Commissioner
Of Queen Victoria at Fiji. Sir J. B.
Iuur7tOu, has quashed the Judgment
Of the Deputy High Commissioner
at ApIa, under which Mr. Stephen
J. Cuza"k, editor and proprietor Of
the Samoan Times, was fined $50
aud costs for libel at the suit Of DR..
knappe, Consul, on behalf Of the
German Government and Navy.
Fine and costs have been returned
% Mr.. Cusack.
Mr.. Gebauer, manager OF one Of
the German plantations, has been
tined 300 marks and costs. in the
German Consular Court, for stating
hat the German postmaster had
permission TO open the mail bags and
detain any letters he suspected to be
written 10 the newspapers affecting
the Germans IN Samoa. He had
made the statement to support an
accusation against Mr. Lodge, a
British subject. charging the latter
with writing a lot Of lies to the
Colonial and American newspapers.
Lodge lodged complaint with the
British Consul: hence the prOsecu-
ton Of Gebauer.
The Times editorially mistrusts
DR.. Steubel, the new German Con
shl, from Of old, as he was recalled
two years ago, for conduct almost as
reprehensi0Ie as DIR. Knappe's. 1t
calls attention to the fact that the
German declaration OF war posted in
Apia has never been withdrawn. In
a news paragraph it Is stated that
Mataafa has sent orders to Sayaii for
his men to return to Apia immedi-
ately. This Is IN consequence Of re-
ports that Germany Is sending fresh
warahIps to take revenge on the Sa-
means for German sailors killed in
battle. The Times suggests, if the
SamOans are TO remain quietly in
their homes. the declaration Of war
should be withdrawn.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

The lecture on photography by
Prof. Brigham to morrow evening
ought to draw ont full attendance.
IND Judging from the number of
tickets already sold, is likely to do
80. The subject is one in which a

Ell iust rrv .1han ever before. and
trc lecturer is a gentleman of un-
usually attractive and entertaining
qualities as speaker as well as en-
tirely familiar with the subject In
addition to these cousiderations,is the
fact that the lecture field here has
been entirely unoccupied for a long
time. Two more lectures by the same
gentleman viii follow at early dates.
These Will be upon some aspects of
physical culture. The particulars
Will be announced hereafter.
Our readers viii find in this morn
ing's issue a very full digest of the
foreign news received bv the
Umatilla and Mariposa. Though
lacking in any special sensa
tional element, the intelligence
from the outside world contains a
great nay matters of interest.

erably lvyond the anticipations of

ance of anything like presentp prices,

the net value of our sugar export.
1t Will be remembered that a differ

WORLD OF SPORTS.

The Rochesters are paying John Fitz- gerald of this city $250 month.
 Bob Petit will receive $500 for playing the balance of the season with Toronto.
 Myers of the Philadel phias has made two errors in twenty one games.
 Sowders leads the league pitchers in bat ting with on average of .3l2.
 Up to Tuesday Burns of Chicago ac- cepted 30 chances without an error. The Torontos are after Gerhardt. The Worcesters would also like to have him. Old Joe Battin is playing as good third base as he ever did in his life if Sporting Times is authority.
 Person has lost all his three games against Cleveland, and O'Briep has won all of hfs three against Washington.
 Pitcher Daley of the Bostons has struck out 27 men in three games. In two games | with Indianapolis he struck out 16. There are few league batsmen who re- ceive as many bases on balls in proportion to games played as Carroll ot the Pitts burgs Most pitchers would rather allow him a base than chance heavy hit.
 Miller of the Pittsburgs is not only catch ing in wonderful style, but Is tatting ter ritically. He has batted safely II conse cutive games, and in them has made tlvt doubles and two home runs.
 The London club has released First Base man Esterbrook and Pitcher Geiss. It i after Ray of the Bostons and Pitcher Ger man of the Lowells.
 The Boston management will not be in hurry to release Ray unless it can get it price. Ray is anxious to get away iron Boston as he is tired of playing on tn bench.
 Baker and Dooms of the Newarks, Burn and Sullivan of the Lowells, Stafford an Burkett of the Worcesters, Horner ant Sworbach of the New Ravens and Wrinkle man of the Hartfords are star pitcher compared with such man as Garfield o the Pittsburgs There is an abundance c fine young pitching talent. The Omah club has the best i'll the western countr in Clarke and Nichols.

Stamford Is AE1tated.

Two weeks ago the Rev J. w. Richard son, of Stamford, delivered sermon in his church upon Sunday dissertation that has stirred Stamford to its depths. The Stamford Advocate came out last week with three columns of comments and crit icisms of business and professional men only one of which endorses the stron 2 Puritanical ground taken by MT Richard son. Among other things the preache, stated that certain Waterbury druggist had refused to sell anything but prescrip tions and other medical necessities, and has been more than prosperous. He claim ed that the burgesses and other borough officials were delinquent, all of which said officials take exception to. The agitation however, seems to have accomplished the work that the preacher intended, viz, to draw public attention to those abuses which make Sunday in Stamford, with it's close proximity to New York and it's notorious Shippan point resort, anything but a model New England Sabbath

It is question whether the coun- ty commissioners can order the removal of a bar from a rear room, but there is nc question as to their right to refuse to li- cense person who maintains bar in any room which is not plainly visible from the street

LONDON, Aug. 1.-The proposed Con gress of American Republics at Wash ington is attracting some attention from the European press, but is nowhere treated as an event likely to lead to i'm portant results. The German press sneers at the proposal as an obvious aping of the methods of European diplo macy by the great American Republic The Vienna Tageblatt ridicules the idee of great confederation of American Republics such as is proposed, and says such copfederation would be even more grandioso than the Eiffel tower.

HOW A LOAN WAS NEGOTIATED.
Michael Claffey Arrested for Obtain ing Money Under False Pretonses.

Michael Claffey Arrested for Obtain
 ing Money Under False Pretenses.
 Michael Claffey was arrested by Officer Dodds yesterday afternoon charged with obtaining money under false pretences from Michael Woods, the Spring street blacksmith. In court this morningClatfey asked for a continuation of the case until August IA, and his request was granted. MT Woods told the following story of the affair to DEMOCRAT reporter: On Tuesday, April 9, Claffey came into his shop and wanted to borrow SIS. l Woods said he had no money to spare, but Claffey succeeded ill nego- tiating the loan, leaving his insurance pol icy as security. The policy was in the Berkshire company and Claffey claimed that its cash value at the time the loan was secured was $150. A few days after wards Claffey asked Woods for the policy saying that he wanted to surrender it to the company and secure its cash value, after which he would return the borro wed money. The unsuspecting blacksmith gave back the policy and that was the last he heard or saw of Claffey for six weeks. Upon investigation he found that the pol icy had no cash value and came to the con- clusion that he had been swindled. Clatfey promised to pay back the money by install
 ments, but did not do so, and when patience
 ceased to be a virtue Nr Woods presented
 the facts in the case to Prosecuting Atior
 ney Burpee who caused the mans arrest.
