LATEST SUGAR CIRCULAR
Sugar, Coffee. Rice, Provisions and Feed Markets.
Opinions on Worlds Crops---San
Francisco Shipping.

!! from Europe during September Deem
Der last year and consequently the a.
bove 10000 tons, coupled with the in
creased shipments of Javas to United
States ports, gives from these two
sources supply of nearly 100000 tons
in excess of the quantity received from
them in the same period last year, but
! against this there are at this time 3d.
/ 600 tons less sugar in all hands in the
Atlantic ports and 10000 tons less
stock in Cuba, making a total of 261, 900
, tons less sugar in United States and
| Cuba available for use of refinery.
| Supplies from other cane countries
| than those mentioned are likely to be
| less than they We're last year. and as
melting should be larger in the closing
months of this year than they were in
/ last, it looks as if further purchases of
| beets may be necessary to meet re-
| liners requirements up to the end of
the year. Until January Cuba will not
| be a factor in the market, as the total
stocks are now only about 81, 600 tons
and the sugars already sold and in pro-
cess of shipment will reduce this
quantity to minimum. Market for
refined sugar continues firm and in
dications point to a steady market with
good distribution for the near future.
! The season for preserving of fruit is
now in full swing, and refiners are
melting largely in order to supply what
/ is needed and every effort is being
made 20 ship the sugar in good time,
but deliveries are now behind from ten
to fifteen days. Domestic beet sugar
will be coming into the market to some
extent during the last half of this
month, but will not be well under way
until October.
