NEW YORK. Aug 81.
The weakness of sugar in spite of the
fact that it has obtained the protection
gwen ii in the Senate tariff bill is one of
the anomalies of the market. Its steady
decline since the bill became law, appears
however to be the result of the sale of lonss
stock, indicating that certain of speculative
interests in the industrial are marketing
their holdings. Yet so far as the condition
and prospects of the company are known 10
the public there seems to be no reason why
this should be SO. The weakness of sugar
was drug on the whole market today. We
believe that with sugar out of the way the
rest of the it would be firm. The, general
market under the circumstances although
dull and narrow is indeed remarkable for
the steadiness with which it resists the de-
pressing influence of the slump in sugar and
the ATTACKS of the bears. One feature of
the situation cannot fail to attract atten-
ton and that is the excellent showing that
is made by Southern railroads and Southern
interests generally. Comparatively the
South seems to be doing better than therest
of the country, and this is probably due to
the fact that it's liquidation and depression
came sooner than that of the North, and is
therefore the first to show marked signs of
recovery. In the good showing made by
thesSouthsthere is promise of the same de-
gree of improvement in the North and West,
when there shall have been the same time
for recovery Besides the South has been
less subject to disturbances on account of
the tariff than the North, which is now,
happily, freed from that course of unsettle-
ment. The interest London is taxing in l..
& N. is one of the features of 1.-The market
this week that stock has been one OF the
mainstays of the speculation on the full
side. and today. it suffered less from the re-
action than majority of the railway lists.
