a continuance of the break in Sugar this
morning was expected and Ii came with
the opening and continued until the stock
was selling at ll5 at II o'clock The re-
mander of the market was little affected by
Sugars weakness, an excellent sign of its
real strength, as in most cases such a
break in this stock would have carried
everything else with it. The railway list
generally, and some of the industrials
opened with advances from last nights
close and there were fractional gains during
the morning hours.
The course of the war in South Africa
and this new game in Sugar may eause
temporary fluctuations of some moment in
either direction. but careful market pe5p!e
believe that there will be good buying on
all declines. The favorable matters in
the news of the morning were the reduc-

Kitchener in South Africa, and number
