Rawz.--The week under review was
interrupted BY holidays, Saturday TO
Monday inclusive leaving four days
for business a
The buying Of raws during these DAYS
was mostly limited to requirements OF
refners to cover sales of their refined
product for export.
The offerings Of holders 10 meet this
demand were restricted and resulted in
an advance for 96 deg. Centrifugals
from cole to 6.27c per h., duty paid
basis. 81
The business included prefeC 8tial
and some fill-duty sugar, as hordu fifth;
the latter was most desired bys ret|f.
ors for the export business. The exnort
purchases for the week were about 2OO,-
900 barrels for several countries, but
chiefly to the United Kingdom, prob
ably to supply the local demand for
refined sugar.

herewith to August 2Sth show at that

mostly for arrival, about half q million

What will be the influence of the

United States enters that market re-
mains to be seen and will largely de-
pend upon the continuance or suspen.
sion of war.
The advices given herein from Ger
many indicate that the German beet
crop, estimated at 1886, 900 tons, will
be mostly secured, and if the war ends
IL will be let loose for export and
produce quite different sugar condi-
tion than If that crop is tied up still
by war.
This report excludes the possibility
Of those German beet fields, which are
between the Russian army and Berlin,
being destroyed later on.
Our weekly Cuba cable gives Island
receipts 5000 tons, bringing total visls
