IA WE LocAL MARKEr.

The stirring Geographic news of the
morning Of the big Sugar fluctuations on
the New York stock market made quite q
furry among Wilmington investors. Of
these there is much larger number,
though of course in limited amounts,
than is generally known.
The bulletin boards at the various
brokers' offices along Market street were
watched with intense interest all the
morning. Sugar opened at SO and then
dropped to IS. The points then com
menced rising again. As the figures began
rushing into the SOS the interest was re-
markable. There was little furore when
the century figure was reached. Then the
stock dropped to 90.
All this took place before IL o'clock
Tuesday morning. To the restricted number
who daily watch the stock fluctuations,
and whose attention has been given very
closely TO Sugar figures for the past month,
1t was as exciting an hour as they have
known for IL years.
