RUssELL's SUGAR LETTER
NEW YORK, May 21.-As advices from Cuba
this morning indicated that the Inauguration
yesterday was not accompanied by any undue
disorders on the part of rebels, sugar futures
reacted quite sharply, declining to 10 points.
The sharp advance of Saturday believed to be
due principally to expectations of uprisings on
the islands, and further damage to cane fields.
Most of the buying this morning came from
prominent trade houses with Cuban sonnec-
lions, but tie other hard there was also sell
ing by large Cuban people. Wall street bought
moderately at the start nut later turned seller
and there was scattered liquidation by outside
interests. Owing to tax that government ALL
nOunced that Il would Intervene the part Of
present administration r rebels attempted any
further uprisings. 1t is felt that the situation
on the island has improved materially and that
there Is no longer much danger of cane fields
being destroyed plantations damaged.

GRAIN MARKET OPINIONS
Harris, Winthrop & Co.: The trade consists |
largely of an evening up process and II prob |
ably will continue more or less while the |
present restrictions hamper ordinary business |
operations.
Ware Leland The market exhibits some |
congestion and looks as though liquidation was
nearly over for the present. Oats prices keep |
strong in accord with the cash situation.
