WlLLETT & GRAY'S
LATEST SUGAR REVIEW

/ Willett & Gray New York; under
! date OF. September 5 say in part:
The conditions of the sugar markets
as outlined fully last week have con.
| tinued in full strength during the
week under review, resulting IN fur.
Their advance in quotations of &c. per
| h. tc-Sc. c. & f. equal 4.36c, per ID.
for 90 deg. test centrifugals The
| scarcity OF available sugar on this
side has also brought to the front the
important fact that sugars from Eu-
rope are to be required to some ex-
tent at least before new domestics
and Cubas become available. The no
table feature of the week is therefore
the purchase by American Refiners OF
some $4,000 tons of beet root sugar
during some days past for prompt
shipment from Hamburg at probably
las. c. & I. to New York equal to
about 423c. per ID. for SO deg. test
centrifugals. The price IL shillings
c. & I. was extremely low and, evil
IDENTIFY, was accepted In order to as
sist in. squeezing the bears.
This purchase cannot Eow be re-
peated as its effect on the European
market is shown in the very consider
able advance in quotations abroad,
from lis. SID on September 2 to LIS,
Sd. {. o. b. Hamburg, caused by the
taking OF this important amount
of sugar from the small stocks held
in Hamburg. estimated recently at on
~ about Sc, 900 tons.
New crop Beets are also drmer, al
though the crop reports Indicate that
the beet roots are of full weight, yet
reports vary as to the saccharine con-
tents.
The fact that part Of the beet seed
sown fas deficient in quality may have
an influence on the sugar outturn OF
the crop which can only be developed
later on.
In any event it seems probable that
crop prospects are suchs as to insure
a comparatively steady, firm and full
price market without phenomenal adj
yances until new sugars are ayahaDie
in quantity
Crop reports continue more favor
able than otherwise but, of course, at
the particular moment there is more
or less uncertainty as to the future
ofall crops, particularly as to Europe
and Cuba.
I The Cuban political and labor situas
ton is by no means as. satisfactory as
is desirable for the safety and manu-
facture of the coming crop.
After this month our domestic crop
of Beet refined comes on the markets
and in view of price prospects. will
be as rapidly placed as possible. leay-
ing much reduced demand for theI
Cane refined product from the Attain
tic and Gulf refineries, and naturally
less raw sugar win be- required.
The scarcity of tonnage throughout
the world is the cause Of much Of the |
delay in arrival of Cuban sugars;
some August shipments were extend
ed to early September shipments.

Decrease IN Death Rate From Tubereu.
Iosis Means Saving Of 27,0oo
Lives In Ten Years.

In the decade from 1901 to 1910. the
death rate from tuberculosis in the
United States declined from 1863 for
each 100000 persons living to 1903, q
decrease of 1877 per cent, while the
general death rate, including all causes
Of death, declined only one-half as fast,
or at the rate Of 81 per cent, from
1850 to 1868, according to figures
given out by the National Association
for the Study and Prevention Of Tu-
berculosis. The figures are based on
data distracted from the reports Of
the United States Bureau of the Cen
sus, and cover the registration area
in this country According to the
statement. the tuberculosis death rate
has declined steadily since 1904, when
1t was 201.6. On the other hand. the
general death rate shows huctuation
downward in general trend, but not as
steady as the tuberculosis rate. The
decline in the tuberculosis death rate
in the last ten years means saving
of $4,000 lives at the present time.
