EASTERN AND FOREIGN MAR
KETS.-The market was strong and
advancing during March, with heavy
transactions the latter part of the
month, attributed to various causes
among others the disappointment in not
receiving larger supplies from Cuba
also the advance and steady price OF
beets on the Continent. and we see nc
reason for the decline of yesterday un
less the Trust has entirely withdrawn
from the market as buyers, as We un
derstand they have declined to NEE
the cut made by Messrs. Arbuckle Bros
in refined Recent European advices in
dictate that the syndicate OF German
refiners has become an accomplished
fact, although its operations are no
to begin until September 80. II Is ais
reported that sales of the coming crol
made by Java planters are estimated a
400. 900 tons. although the quantit,
purchased by United States buyers !
small compared with those made up {
the same time last year. On the othe
hand new crop Javas have been pur
chased by China and Japan in muc
larger quantities than those of las
year. all of which should contribute {
the scarcity of cane sugars in the Me-
York market this summer. unless re
finers protect themselves by turtle
purchases.
