SUGAR PRICES DROP

Sugar prices are tumbling. But
men who know the market are by no
means certain that the prices will stay
down. The present drop is in part due
to the arrival of the seasonal crop, and
in part to the arrival in our ports of
shipments of sugar from Java and
from Europe-sources of cane and
beet sugar that have sent us no sup
ply for years past. These distant pro-
ducers have been attracted by the
famine prices which the sugar trust
has forced on the American people,
thanks to Attorney General Palmer.
If this new supply keeps coming for
a month the trust will have to sacri-
flee some of it's loot But if it can
stop the shipments, by any device,
then we shall presently be enjoying
the privilege of paying more.

Weekly Cotton Review
By Associated Prss

New York, February H.-The cotton market has shown continued nervous ness during the past week, and fluctua- tions have been more or less irregular On the whole, however, the tone has been frrner owing to the absence of pressure from southern spot holdings, and there was a particularly sharp rally during to- days trading on active covering by Wall street and local shorts. May con- tracts, which had sold off to 31.50c on the big break of last week, recovered to SS.75c this afternoon, with the ad- vance promoted by the steadier ruling of foreign exchange, the continued strength of the Liverpool market and talk of a renewed trade demand. The strong technical position of March con tracts here also appeared to be attracting considerable attention. owing to rumors that local and southwestern spot houses were long of the near month and were planning to take up deliveries.
 With only about 750O bales of cotton cer- tificated in the local stock, these rumors evidently caused covering by both March and May shorts, although the most gen. eral opinion appeared to be that holdings of March would be liquidated at a pre- mium of from 250 to 900 points above May. Nothing more definite has been reported with reference to possible shipments of cotton back here from Liverpool and the steadier ruling of sterling exchange has been accompanied by. activp Liverpool
