Contract Sugars Disappear

The Federal Sugar Refining Co, in
discussing the refined situation say:
"The undertone to the market is bet.
ter, due to the fact that there is more
inquiry and keen demand for second
hand sugars, on the basis of 1850, but
practically none Obtaipable.
As previously pointed out, the trade
now has no sugar on contract, and
from this time forward will be in the
market daily to cover their immediate
wants. This will make better demand
Than we have had previously, and,
Gded by seasonable weather, might
very easily make a very brisk demand
for prompt shipment sugar, that re.
fners would find it difficult to fill, on ae-
count of the commitments already made
for export during july

VauX.

After q seyen-day battle-witain-a-
battle. waged at tremendous cost,
the German forces in the Verdun
region are in possession of Fort
Vaux.
If what Germany now wants is
gains at any price, the news of which
can be posted in big letters in Ber-
lin, no doubt Vaux counts for some
thing in the German plan. What
Germany has won at Vaux, how
ever, is not a fort but a position.
Of the Notifications only clutter
of ruins remains.
Vaux may be an advantageous
height on which to post artillery.
But it is far from being thelast that
protects Verdun. The French have
still intact half circle of inner
forts, including the heights of Tavan-
nes and Souville. This line is still
from FIVE to six miles outside Yer
dun itself.
The French artillery will make
every foot of this ground a costly
prize for the Germans, even meas
ured by the standards of appalling
sacrifice the Kaiser's generals seem
to have have established for Verdun.
Is It not possible that the French
can we'll afford to lose Verdun pro-
vided they can slowly and deliberate
ly draw on the Germans to a Pyrrhic
victory the disastrous cost Of which
shall not be apparent until after it
has been paid?
Meanwhile the Russians are gath.
ering vast armies on the eastern
frontiers of the Teutonic empires.
Austria is already giving way before
them. How long before Germany
will feel the impact?-New for&

succeeded. after long, spectacular
campaign, in putting through the
Hart.Agnew bills against betting on
horse races.
Notable among the reform bills of
the Hughes administration was the
creation of the Public Service Com
missions. which did away with the
State Railway Commission and the
Rapid Transit Commission. He was
essentially legal in his attitude to-
ward legislation. Attractive in the
ory as measure might be, his law
yer's mind revolted from it if it was
open to attack on the grounds of
constitutionality. Conspicuous ex-
amples of this were his vetoes of the
2-cent railroad fare law and the 5
cent fare to Coney Island.
Gov Hughes's reorganization was,
in effect, an operation of the direct
primary principle. The bosses would
have been happy with almost any
thing else but him, but there was a
popular insistence that compelled
them to name him again. He was
elected and served until 1910, when
President Taft nominated him for
the supreme court.
The new Justice took his place on
October 10, 1910, the Youngest men,
Der of the court. He still retains
that distinction, for Justice Nc
Reynolds is two months his senior
and Judge Brandeis six years.
Justice Hughes lives as orderly q
life as his habits of mind would lead
one to expect. He works nine hours
a day and his one recreation out of
doors is golf, which he plays with
care but without especial enthusi-
asm. He is fastidious in dress and
his spare figure when he has donned
frock coat and high hat gives him
the appearance of more than his 5
feet 104 inches.
One son and namesake, Charles E
Hughes, Jr. has just entered upon
the practice of law in New York
City. Two daughters, who are just
finishing school, live at the Washing
ton home of the Justice, No 2401
Massachusetts avenue. The family
lives modestly, for the Justice had
but started upon the really prosper
Gus stage of his career when he be-
came Governor. His wealth is reck-
oned at materially less than 500, 900.
