Not Much in Favor of II.

PHILADELPHIA, October 5.-The
American Sugar Refining Company.
which controls the Spreckels and the
Franklin refineries of this city, is
said to be making preparations to go
into the package sugar business, in
company with the Arbuckles of New
York, who have had this trade entire
ly to themselves. Nlen are mt work
putting the old Delaware sugar house
into condition to be used as plant
for putting up package sugar"
At the office of the Franklin refine
ry one of the officials admitted that
the building in question was to be
used as plant here for putting up
package sugar and that it was eN-
pected to begin business within the
next sixty days.
\ well known sugar broker. in
speaking of this new movement of
the Sugar Trust, said: The majority
of the sugar factories and wholesale
sugar dealers and grocers are not
much in favor of the package sugar
industry. as they believe it will clash
with the regular trade of selling refin-
ed sugars by the barrel. The trade so
far in this style of sugar has been
mainly in the country, but what the
future outcome may be no one can
tell. 1t is generally believed in the
sugar and coffee trade that the trust,
with the Woolston Spice Mills in Ohio
turning out package coffee and a
package sugar plant in this city, and
package sugar in New York means an
irrepressible trade conflict between
the American Sugar Refining Company
and the ArbuclIleS for the mastery in
these lines of package goods"
