Sugar Trust Defeated.

| New YORK, Nov. 3.-Jndge Pratt, OF
the supreme court in Brooklyn, rem
| dered his decision this morning in the
celebrated trust litigation. 1t is a vol
luminous document, and recites the is
sues at stake very fully. The cases in
volved are known as the suits of Cam
eron against Havemeyer and Have
meyer against the Brooklyn Sugar
Refinery company. The judge justifes
the original injunction restraining the
plan of reorganization, but says that it
has been superseded by the publication
of the plan under consent of both par
ties.
The rumors of the probable receiver
ship frightened off buyers, and, as re-
suit the heavy selling coused a sharp
decline. In the first few minutes the
price dropped from 63S to 81, then raj
lied to "a on reports that no decision
had been handed down, and when the
official news of the adverse decision
was published the price fell from 64 to
59B The sales in the first three hours
were very happy, amounting to one
fourth Of the entire capital of the trust.
While the decline was in full force the
rest of the market became stagnant,
and during the greater part of the day
the transactions in sugar trust absorbed
all interest.
