here that the ordinary Washington trader

at some time in the near future. This

The name of Mr. Rockefeller is n:en-
tened in connection with the sugar deal.
He vas undoubtedly one OF the comoiua-
tioa which forced up the price yesterday
and Monday. 1t will be remembered that
the first intimation published that Mr..
Rockefeller was largely interested in Sugar
appeared in this column some weeks ago.
The story as printed in The Times was
that Mr.. Rockefelier was buying up all
the floating stock of the sugar company,
and acquiring an impor tant interest. He
dill this, of course, to make money, and
ii is almost sure that lie bought Sugar
at this time with the intention of keep
ing it, because the sugar company has
Just such monopoly as he is fond OF,
and pays just the kind of dividend, and
has just the kind of surplus that he likes
It is possible that he took this interest
in sugar only temporarily, for the sake
of the few thousand or million dollars
that could be cleared upon this little deal,
but it is much more likely that, having
prpfiteG by the deal, he will continue
his interest in tire company. This factor
is another one why prudent trader
should never be without a little Sugar
for fear some such rise as this may occur.
