The Results OF the Trust.
Wiue,t * Ham-eu's weekly circular Q.
March 18th. besides the usual complete
statistics. contained the following obser-
vatious On tine sugar market:
Prices-The developments Of the
week all over the sugar world have
brought to more conspicuous view the
strength Of the sugar position and the
poorly prepared state Of the United
States markets 10 meet such an issue as
now s-ares Us in the face. Rehners have
secured all the sp0t. CentrIfugals and all
the ahoats, but the quantity Is insignlt-
cant when compared with the require
ments Of the approaching large season OF
consumption, and It remains to be seen
AZ what prices producing countries Will
part with their moderate supplies, :
considerable portion Of which are al
ready in the hands Of local speCulatOrs.
Tue beet countries are advancing prices
rapidly, thus putting out OF reach the
only competition which cane producers
fear
Under these circumstances. We have
70 record for the week the remarkable
advance Of &c. per pound on raw sugar,
leading also 10 an equal rise in refined,
with such IN increased demand for the
latter that on some days refners refused
10 meet It, or were unable 10 do so.
With stocks II United States decreased
-.744 tons f0r the week. and now re-
duced TO II ,55S tons total, or, say, i 1876
tons less than IT the same time last year,
we have to note on the other hand IN IN
creased consumption OF say II ,Ulo tons,
thus f1r this year, over the same time
last wear. Raw and refined are now Ic.
per bound higher than at this time last
wear. and the conditions are certainly
Indicative Of Z much more considerable
advance before new crops, not yet soWn,
can come TO the relief OF the market.
The present condition Is more or less
due to. or i the material result of. the
depressing policy pursued by refners
since the formation Of the Trust" This
great power ignored the existence Of
well-orsanizad sugar business which
heretofore included c1a=igueES, con
Sigu1rs. merchants. importers. bankers,
brokers and agents. who in their com
biued capacities. helped the producer to
carry his sugar and dispose Of it, and

Oriental Justice.

DR.. Henry NJ Scudier relates a
case of Oriental Justice that could
hardly he outdoue for SHARP and sui
tie determinations -Four men, par
hers in business, bought some cotton
bales That tie rats might not de-
stroy the cotton, they purchased a
cat. They agreed that each of the
four should own a particular leg Of
the cat, and each adorned with beads
and other ornaments the leg thus ap-
portioned to him. The cat, by an
accident, injured one of It's legs The
owner OF that member wound about it
a rag soaked in oil. Tie cat, going
too near the FIRE. set the rag on fire,
and being IN great pam, rushed in
among the cotton bales where she
was accustomed to hunt rats. The
cotton thereby took fire and was
burned. Il was total loss. The three
other partners brought an action to
recover the value of the cotton against
the fourth partner who owned the
particular leg Of the cat. The Judge
examined the case and decided thus:
The leg that had the oil-rag on it
was hurt; the cat could not use that
leg-in fact, it held up that leg and
ran with the other three legs. The
three unhurt legs therefore carried
the fire to the cotton, and are alone
culpable. The injured leg is not to
blame. The three partners who owned
the three legs with which the cat ran
to the cotton will pay the whole value
Of the bales to the partner who was
proprietor Of the injured leg. La.

TO Prevent Express RObberies.

The railroad companies think they
have hit upon plan to prevent ex-
press robberies, and one which is so
simple the wonder is that it was not
thought Of before. All the cars are
being supplied with stationary safes
with combination locks, the combina-
tion Of which is unknown to the mes
senger. When money is shipped
representative Of the company will 60
to the train, deposit the money or
valuables, check it with the messenger
and secure the safe. When the train
reaches another point representa-
tive acquainted with the combination
visits the car and assertions from the
messenger if there are any valuables
in the safe for that point, and so on.
So, if a car is attacked by robbers
they can only get into the safe by
blowing it open and thus giving the
alarm, as the messenger himself
knows nothing Of the combination

In nearly every parish in the State

are that the result will be the same
