The price of sugar has swung
around into level that Is saner than
1t has been for sometime, or to put
II more properly, during the last Two
days of the week there has been a
tendency to wipe out the remarkable
disparity between the quotations of
London and New York. On Friday
the price OF centrifugals had advanc.
ed to Az and beet sugar had drop.
ped back to. iSs parity 4.76 This Is
undoubtedly due to the shipment of
centriiugals from Cuba to the Lon
don market. And this will produce
a leveling of prices, but by no means
reduction In the price Of centrift
gals. As u matter Of fact. sugars
from Hawaii going onto the market
at this time will realize five dollars
ton more than was expected for this
season Of the year. II IL now the
middle of January when the Cuban
grinding season Is well under way;
IL reaches its height the middle of
January. Consequently II prices are
to drop they must do so In hurry
and this they will not do unless some
unexpected disaster occurs.

Sugar stocks hold public attention.
New building plans, appropriations by
Congress, nothing in fact Is able to
distract the public from the sugar
stock market.
But this IL not surprising. This
Territory. on the heels of one Of the
best years II has ever experienced, is
apparently on the verge Of another
better one. A year good In the yield
of sugar and unparalleled in the price
of sugar for the whole season. For
this reason stocks are going up when
It was expected they would sag. and

offered at the ruling prices knowing
full well that the day OF six percent
