This week has seen the end of the
recent downward reaction and the be
ginning of the recovery which is fol
lowing.
The easier tone noted last week, when
spot centrifugals were sold at 4.l7c,
was due largely to the decline in Euro
pean markets; in fact, too much
attention was given this, as it was
not realized that prices here are fully
justified by statistical position. where
as the European quotations for old crop
are unduly inflated.
If prompt beet should decline even

Of centrifugals at 4,31c., our present
quotations would still be warranted, as
they are not more than .32c higher than
last year, when the position was not
near so strong and as we will require
not only all the available privileged
sugars, but a fair quantity of full duty
paving sugars before the next Cuba
crop can come to market
Further business at 4.17c. was done
early in the week. but the market soon
became firmer and large sales have

Holders have become encouraged by
the improvement here, followed by a

The weather, with the exception of
few local complaints, appears to be
very favorable for the growth of beet
roots In France the reports on the
crop are veriable, due to the irregu-
laritv and backwardness Of the crop.
The scarcity Of laborers is also causing
trouble. From Germany reports of dry
ness are received and that the state of
The beet roots is not particularly good.
In Austria Hungary We hear complaints
Of drvness. and our friends in Russia
write that the drought has caused CON

general the European crop does not find
itself in a very good condition, but all
this can be greatly changed by favor
