Our cane and beet crop estimates
are subject to changes as events de-
yelop. but for the present, at least,
they represent our opinion as experts
as fairly as can be made without pre-.
judice to any country or interest
Note the difference in consumption
Of sugar in Great Britain caused by
the advanced prices in August and
September. August consumption fell
/ to 116,90S tons and September to 104,.
232 tons against 156,253 tons and 1873.
7s4 tons respectively last year. The
action Of the British government in
limiting prices at retail prevented the
buying there OF uslimited amount of
sugar for future use, as was the case
] in the United States, where no re.
striction existed. The result Is now
being shown in the small demand and
constantly lowering Of values in the
United States domestic trade. ..>,-..
| We call attention to our special let
ter from the Cuban crop experts re,
lating to the very favorable crop con.
ditions recently. prevailing. Note that
our United States beet crop estimate
is 85,29S tons less than last year.
At the close, market conditions are
unchanged. with the sellers in the
foreground ready to meet buyers in
any position at 3Ac C. & T., or 4.26c
per ID. duty paid. i. ~.
| NEUTRALITY.-In our reports OF
damage to the European beet crops we
aim to give the results as they appear
to us by the reports which reach us
as to the actual movements of the ar.
mics from week to week, and are not
to be taken as indicating In any de.
gree any Partially toward the army
movements Of any nation. Our publ.
cation is intended to be strictly neu.
trial, especially as to everything relat.
Ing to sugar facts.
