New York, April 12.-There was little more activity in the sugar market today, with the committee reporting purchases of 10000 bags of Cubas for April ship n,ent. Prices remained at the fixed leve of 4.9s5c for Cubas, cost and freight, ecual 10 6.005c for centrifugal.
 In refined some complaints are still heard, although on the whole the oe, mand seems to be fairly well suppneu ,vith mast of the refiners making fair .Ieliveries. The arrivals have been so ir, eyular that some refiners have with drawn from time to time, although as the raw sugar arrives, meltings should increase and supplies be about sufficient to take care of the early summer de- n1and. Prices are unchanged at 7-46c for fine granulated.
