attempt to revive the ban on mus

LONDON. October 20 Correspond

cline in the worlds sugar production
of about ii per cent, as compared
with the season 1874. was regis
tered during 1888. according to fig-

the Cuban output-from 100000 tons
in 1894 to an estimated 100000
tons in 191S19-the decline would
have been much more serious, says
the Journal.
The worlds production of raw cane

which is consumed locally. rose from
100000 tons. in 1884. to 100000
tons in 1859. an increase of 100000
