Eastern and Foreign Markets.-The
political disturbances in Cuba, to which
we called attention in our previous cir
cular, rendered necessary intervention
by the United States and the occupa-
tion of the island by a military force
has served to maintain a government
adequate for the protection of life and
property, thereby removing former
fears of a serious curtailment to the
coming sugar crop through destruction
of cane fields or damage to factories,
The clearing of the political atmos-
