Advance in Refined Sugars.

New York. May 3-The American Sugar
Refining company today advanced the
price of all refined sugars sold by it Is
cent per pound. Standard granulated
was thus placed at 53s cents, against 514c
yesterday, and SIS a month ago. The
move was quickly followed by all indie
pendent refineries. The current advance
was really begun IN London, where SUI
gar prices have been hardening for some
days. / was forced by the decided firm
ness in raw sugars which cut down de-
cidedly the margin Of refiners' profits. I'M
ports of raw sugar in the United States

unnatural affection, brought little to add
to the story Of the tragedy, save in the
testimony Of Mr.. Hassell, the estranged
husband Of the murderess. He stated that
in London when his wife was Miss Vir-
ginie Rieke she formed the same sort Of
an attachment for young woman as she
did here for Mrs. Hickman. Then it re-
CURED much influence to break off the mad
infaruation the woman had for one Of her
own sex. Here when Fac first met Mrs.
Hickman she showed the infatuation that
was marked in the old country and the
husband tried to break it off but could
not. The jury found that Mrs. Hassell
shot and killed Mrs. Hickman as she slept
and then sent a bullet into her own head.

Madame Cespedes, Who Is
Seconded by Gomez.

Havana, May 3-The future of Cuba will
probably be largely Influenced by a wo-
man, Madame Cespondes, whose salon is
visited by the best known men. not only
OF Havana, but Of the entire island. Gen
eral Maxine omez Is constant visitor.
and a welcome guest Of this lady, and
dimes with her from three to five times

Of the first president of Cuba in the Ten
Years War, and decisions reached at her
salon are far more effective than any de-
cree passed by the recently defunct Cuban
assembly. Men of standing who are de-
voted TO the principle Of Cuban national
independence are welcomed to the salon
and assist in its councils. II is believed
by persons who are in a position to know,
that full understanding has ben reached
by Madame Cespodes and eneral Gomez
regarding Cuba's future AMI the first real
president Of the proposed republic, for all
Of the former presidents have had Office
without power. At one time General
Gomez was seriously considered for the
presidency, but after the action of the
assembly in assailing his course it was
considered that his candidacy would prob

result of conversations at Madame Ces-
podes' salon, it is asserted that the first
president of Cuba shall be Carries Cespo-

of General Gomez believe that it is none
too early TO begin a movement in hehalf
of aCrles Cespodes, as they expect that
American occupation of the island will
end before next summer and probably by
April, 1900. 1t is represented that aCrles
