Washington, Oct. 28-The American
ship kroonIand, from New York,
bound for Naples and Greece, with a
cargo Of copper, has bssn detained at
Gibralter by British authorities, ae-
eording to report to the state de-
partment today from American consul
Spraoue.
Consul Sprague did not report the
reason for the detention of the kroon-
land but as copper is listed as condi-
tional contraband, it is assumed that
the British governments attitude will
be similar to that in the case of an
other American ship which carried cop
per to Holland. In that case when the
Holland government gave assurances
that the copper would not be reshipped
from Holland the British government
withdrew it's objection.

ANNUAL SUGAR REVIEW and
TIMELY CROP news IS GIVEN

This reduction fsadirectly account
able for the uns al increase Of con.
sumption, independent of increase oil
population, which increase is 6.S19 per
cent over the year 1912 against an
average of 4076 per cent for 80 years
and 1927 per cent larger increase than
the average of the 10 years OF Cuban
reciprocity.
The reduced cost of raw sugar ftr
refining was directly due to the large
increase of crops of free and prefer

than sufficient to supply the United
States requirements without import.
ing non-preferential sugars at the
higher rates Of, duty. This year is
the first in which this condition has
existed. In every year heretofore a
certain amount Of such full-duty-pay
ing sugar has been required for use
which has raised the average cost OF
raws each year. We have maintained
for. years that the way to, lower the
cost of sugar to the consumer was to
increase our local free and preferen.
tiaf crops by a moderate protective
duty. The year 1918 sees our fore
cast fulfilled to the letter.
| This feature of the year is really
the most important to which we can
call attention, except one other which
concerns the competition during the
Year among the cane refiners, as
shown by the decrease of production
by the American Sugar Refining Com
.pany to S6.27 per cent Of the consump.
tion from 3S4S per cent the previous
year. while the proportion of the in
dependents increase, from 1909 pei
cent to 1874 per cent The domestic
beet factories increased from 1891
per cent to, 100 per cent. and carried
over into 1914 slightly larger amount
Of crop production than last year.
All raw sugars in 1913 were sold
on the basis of values of Cuba sc de.

not on basis OF Hamburg parity. thus
fulfilling another of our previous fore.
casts. that with local production OF

come entirely INDEPENDENT of the
worlds market at Hamburg. B
In our last issue we covered the
matter of market quotations for 1918.
We have only to add that all crop con
ditions for 1914 promise sufficient pro
duetion to supply the q. S. with all
requirements without calling on Eu.
rope for any. and hence that prices
win continue to be made on the basis
of Cuban values in New York for raw
sugar. while reffners win need a larger
margin to work upen Il they are to
continue to, pay dividends or renew
them in cases where they are already
suspended.
