changed from the last previous sale, but
was $3.50 above the price prevailing when

The special committee OF the exchange
recently appointed for the purpose of
formulating rules governing the trading
In raw sugar futures on that board In
less than cargo lots Is still actively at

ment. They have signlfied their inten-
tIon to aid the movement all they can
