NEW YORK, February PA rise
OF seven points net or nine and one
quarter points from the low price of the
morning was the sensational record of
the American Sugar Refining Company
stock today. The closing price of the
stock was 1924 and the top price 143.
The dealings were i'm 100. 100 shares.
The expectation of an increase i'm the
dividend to be declared next month was
one of the reasons given for the adj
vance Another report was that the
forecasting agreement regarding the
duty on Cuban sugar was one that
would favor the sugar company. In
the sugar trade the authorities were at
a loss to account for the advance and
ascribe 1t to stock market manipula-
