TRUST SHUTS DOWN.
Orders Issued by the Com

RefinePieS.
$4,000 MEN OUT OF WORK.
Threats OF Free Sugar Cause
1t, Says President
Havemeyer.
$4,000 MEN OUT OF WORK
BEEN RUNNING AT A LOSS.
VIII Remain Closed Until the
Market Warrants a
Resumption.

New YORK, Nov. 26.-An evening
paper says: "Orders were issued today
from the headquarters of the American
Sugar refinery in Wall street to shut
down completely all the reineries of
the company in Boston, New York and
Philadelphia" Fifty thousand opera.
tives were affected by the closing Of the
sugar works.
President Ii. o. Havemeyer. of the
American Sugar Refining company. said
this morning: 1.-The sugar business has
been bad for some months past. We
have been hoping against hope all
along, and tried to weather through the
period Of depression, trusting that busI-
ness might Improve and that we would
soon be able to run our works to their
fullest capacity, but everything was
against us.
1.-The reaction that followed the pas
sage of the tariff bill brought about a
dull season and the war among the
wholesale grocers In several sections of
the country still further tended to de-
moraliZe trade. When to this was ad-
ded the excitement of an election cam
vass and the general report that con-
gress would pass free sugar bill max
ing all sugars free, you can readily see
that there was enough cause to compel
US to shut down completely.
But we ran our works up to the
present time with reduced force in
the hope that. Micaber like, something
might turn up. Our firth in the future
has failed US, and beginning tomorrow
we shall shut down all our works in
Boston, New York, Philadelphia and
Baltimore. This will affect 80, 600 oper-
atives. We cannot do anything else.
We are sorry for our men. aud have
been trying to ward it off all along. But
the truth is. we have been running our
works at loss for several months past,
and its time TO call quits now. The last
congress is responsible for The present
situation, and if they pass the free
sugar bill at Washington as it is report
ed they will, they will kill the sugar in
dustrS completely. Things could not
be much worse than they are now
There is very little difference between
the prices of raw and refined sugar, and
there is no reason or justice IN contlnu~
ing business at a.heavy loss.
1--WE must either have enough profit
to cover the bald expenses of CARRYING
on sugar refining or else 20 out of the
business completely. We cannot COM
pete with the wages paid in Europe,
and our men and their families could
not begin to support themselves and
their families at such figures. And yet
we are asked to run our establishment
with only the margin in refining that is
to be found between the cost of raw and
refined sugars. which is now a trihe less
than half cent per pound.
No, the only thing for US to do is to
shut down completely until there is
market for our goods and until we can
see our way to pay expenses. And |
can see nothing cheering or reassuring
in the outlook at the present moment"
