Raws.-The last week of the old year
and beginning of the new has been ,
quiet for the greater part, ana the ,
only feature of interest to note is the !
conditions of the Cuba !
crop at the beginning of the new year. !
Very little sugar has been made in
Cuba and only 20 centrals are at work /
against 100 last year. The holidays |
in connection with continued rainy |
weather, produced this result and has |
left the sellers of contracts for ship ;
ment during January in bad posi- !
ton, they being not able thus far to
procure supplies sufficient for contracts
and are compelled to ask refiners for
delay. Refiners on the other hand, APP
pear to be in need of sugars for use
and are willing to pay current quota /
lions for any offers, but in Cuba the
short sellers have paid 116c. to 3.32c.
more than current quotations. The out
look for the month is for steady, firm
markets. At the close Philadelphia
