| Inere mas Deen neaVy demand for sugars
the past two weeks stimulated by rapidly ad
vancing markets. Raw sugar has not kept
pace with refined in the upward movement
| The former has advanced nc and the latter IL
per pound. jobbers are in a quandary as tc
what the future will bring. If the trade could
be assured that the present level of prices
| would be maintained demand would quickly
| assume normal condition and still more
| active movement would soon set in, as the time
of the year foT great activity is at hand. There
is, however, a natural fear of a reaction, on
account of the strong and quick advance. The
future OF markets depends almost entirely on
the course of reiners. who control production.
This week will define their policy. They have
been controlling the output of late, and if this
line of policy is pursued there is little doubt
that they will get their price. It is only a ques-
tion ofthe greed of refners as to what mark cts
will be. In the meantime, joDoers are at sea.
Consumers are likely to pay dear for their
sweetening this season.
