 New York, January 10.-In the local market for raw sugar there was less pressure to sell, promoting steady un- dertone, although there was no change in prices which were on the basis of 4.33c to 4.54 for centrifugal. 3.60c to 3.75c for mo- lasses, and SEC for Cubas, cost and freight. Sales included 10000 bags Cubas late Saturday for first half January clear ance, at 31ac cost and freight, and 32,00O bags last half January clearance at 7-16c cost and freight There were also sales of 45OOO bags Cubas first half February clearance worked today at 3ssc cost and freight. Reflners were still indifferent and granulated was quiet at the old quo tation of 5.95c in the local market. Buy CTS appear to be holding off awaiting an expected readjustment in prices which seemed to be suggested by reports that two Philadelphia refineries had reduced their list quotation to 5.S5c. Trading in futures was unimportant, with prices point lower to points higher at the close. January sold from 3.60@ 3.59c, closing 35Sc; February. S.37c. clos | ing 3.37; March closed 3.S7c; May sold | from 3.47c to 3.45c, closing 347c.
