MEXICAN HEMP 0VERS0LD
Situation Aggravated by Lack of ship
ming Facllities.

The crop Of the hemp growers o.
Yuyatan. % was learned yesterday, has
been overso'd, and the commission rep
resenting the farmers in this city are
refusing TO snake quotations for future
deliveries. The situation has been ag-
rrayated by the shortage of ocean ton
rage.
There is q small supply in the hands
OF she commission, however, which WI.
supply the immediate requirements OF
American users Of Mexican hemp or
sisal. One Of the reasons for the lack
Of shipping facilities given was the
unprecedented demand for bottoms m
che West Indian sugar carrying trade.
