Raws.-Following the large business
in Centrifugals just at the close of last
weeks report, the market has natural-
ly taken on a more quiet turn in the
week under review, but with the quo
tations firmly maintained. In instances
the buyers have tried to obtain con-
cessions, but without result thus far.
Buyers at the close indicate lac. for
Sc degrees test Centrifugals on spot,
but sellers firmly maintain their pre-
tentions at 4 slice. The tone and tend
ency, however, at the moment is rath-
er on the buyers side as Europe shows
some slight concessions under rather
improved conditions relative to the
beet crop.

today reads: Crop prospects are be-
coming more favorable

however. is too late to repair very
much of the actual damage previously
done the crops. Mr., F. O. LIGHT has
not yet published his estimate OF the
new beet crops, but others are counting
on an outturn of 100000 to 100000 tons
less than last years crops. If the re-
ported Improvement does not continue
to the time of harvest, the maximum
estimate of shortage may not prove to
be excessive
Actual business during the week Is
insignificant. Refiners being well sup
piled, the quietuess may continue
through the coming week.
No business in Javas is reported this

now include one cargo due to arrive

Cuba has been virtually out of the
market for the week. 2 15-16c. per
pound for 50 degrees is the highest
salable value for shipments, which
shows no change from the last large
business, but merely that sellers pre-
tentions for an advance are not al
lowed.
