Willett & Gray's Journal for June p
contains more than usually interesting
matter. Besides forecasting a de-
crease of stocks until December, it dis
cusses the withdrawal of Great Britain
from the Brussels convention, draw
ing by the same country on the Philip
pine crop and the Cuban outlook. Of
raws the Journal says:
AS indicated at the close of last
weeks report the downward reaction
came to an end and was succeeded
during the present week under review
by frmer and advancing tendency,
closing with sales at the highest point
of recovery and showing Improvement
for the week of .165e. per ID. in spot
and nearby sugars, and .06c. per Id. in
futures for July shipment.
"The receipts in United States were
quite large and in excess of require
ments for MEETINGS, thereby increasing
stock in United States to 441,S78 tons,
and in United States and Cuba to-
gether to or, S7S tons, against $780,
246 tons last week and $50, 167 tons
last year.
"Now that Cuba crop manufacture
is over and will not be resumed until
the next campaign in December, the
combined stocks as above will continue
to decrease from week to week, and a
corresponding increase of value result
up to the parity of beet sugars re-

sumptive requirements for the cam
paign.
Java sugars, which are now at the
same parity as beet sugar. will have
the preference of our buyers, but for
the present neither Javas nor beets
are required. For June-July shipment
los. 71ad c. & f. is now asked.
"In London market 9s. SID. proved
the low point of reaction for beet su-
gars and under very dull and quiet
conditions and favorable weather for
the growing beet crops, the price re-
covered at the close to 9s. Cd. per
cwt f. o. b. Hamburg.
1.-The action of Great Britain in re-
firing from the Brussels Convention in
September, 1908, is commented upon
| chiefly as risking the resuscitation of
the old bounty system with its cartel :;
but this result is hardly to be expect
ed. as the effect upon the European
beet sugar industry of the abolish
ment of bounties has proved to be I'M
harmful, ana as the retirement of one
party to the convention will not neces-
sarily be sufficient to disrupt the con
vention or change its effect very mate
rally outside of the United Kingdom.
"Inasmuch as some 1000 tons of
Philippine Islands sugar have gone to
the q. X. this season one effect will
be to increase the exports from those
islands into the T. K during succeed
ing years, doing away with any neces-
sity for reduced duties on thosea su-
CARS in the United States, and adding
stimulus for the further increase of
our domestic cane and beet industries

"The statement of Secretary Taft
that the U. S. protectorate in Cuba
will last for IS months longer at least,
carries with it assurance of peace and

SALE OF PUBLIC LAND.

There was very successful sale of
Territorial land here, this week, by
Land Agent George H. Williams. For
the right of purchase leases men were
in line for twenty-four hours, and all
of the 202 acres were taken. There
were eight lots submitted for cash pur-
chases, three of them being auctioned
off much above the government upset
price. B. Won Damn secured one of
these at an advance of $57. The whole
227 acres realized $6273. Last of all
there were four cash freeholds, al
most 100 acres, that sold for $677. The
last lot went to plucky Mrs. NJ. Hamil-
ton who was run up in price by Ha-
waiian, a dollar each bid, while the lady
had made up her mind to have it
and went FIVE dollars better. When it
was knocked down to her, the crowd
applauded.
