Provisions To Be Adopted

Negotiations for the fotation Of
$10,000000 State of Rio Grande do Sui,
Brazil, loan in this market are nearing
contamination, it was learned in bank
ing circles yesterday, and formal an
nouncement of the closing Of the deal
Is expected early in the week
The loan will consist of twenty
6ve-year per cent bonds which will be
non-callable for the first ten years. An
ample sinking fund will provide for the
retirement of certain amount Of the
issue each year through open-market
purchases after the first ten years. The
bonds will be secured by lien against
the revenues received by the Brazilian
state from several specific tax levies.
According to present plans, the issue
will probably be offered at price
slightly under par.
This is the first time the State of
Rio Grande do Sui has come to this
market for funds. In this operation
the proceeds will be used for port i'm
provement work and other construction
purposes.

There was a further sharp decline
in the cotton market yesterday, owing
to continuation Of the selling move
ment which was started by the unex-
pectedly heavy ginning returns Of the
earlier week. All deliveries made new
low records for the movement, with
or more than &c below the price ruling
iust before the census report of last
Wednesday morning, and 567 points

Der. Last prices were at the lowest,

Inventories Check Buying

Dry goods jobbers are showing a
disposition to cut down on their pur-
chases as much as possible in order
to close the year with light inven-
tories. 1t is rumored that banking
institutions, regardless of the i'm
provcment in business, are still frown-
ing upon heavy Inventories among
their dry goods clients. Several big
orders, it is understood. have been
held up, pending the taking of inven-
tories at the close OF the year. One
commission agent cited an instance of
fairly large order, which was can
celled, but which is likely to be rein
stated shortly after the turn of the
year, when inventories have been COM
pleted.

Cuban Sugar Commission
Still Problem for Planters
Approach of New Season Finds Large Stocks of Old
Crop; Many Suggestions Made for
Relieving Situation
spscsai FOREIGN Finaacia, correspondents

Spectai FOREIGN Financial Correspondence
HAVANA, Nov. 3.--Sincc the creation
of the Sugar Commission last January
it he's come in for censure from all
sides. December, the first month Of
grinding the new crop, approaches and
finds Cuba with not less than 100000
bags of sugar on hand, and sugar prices
actually lower than in the ten yearG
previous to the war.
Many interests contend that had the
sugar crop been offered freely last Feb
ruary and March at any price the island
would have been far better off to-day,
and they contend to-day that the
Sugar Commission should be dissolved
end sugar offered freely for whatever
price it might bring. Counter interests
are fighting this plan by proposing a
law to forbid grinding cane before the
middle of February, 1922, and impos-
ing a prohibitive tax upon any sugar
that is ground before that date. Natu-
rally those interests who were fortu-
nate enough to have shipped almost all
their stocks under the term of con-
tracted sugar are clamoring for early
grinding of cane and freedom of action.
The Fordney tariff bill, which in
creased the duty on Cuban sugar from
S1,03 to $1.60 the hundredweight, is
considered blow to American trade
with this island, which stands at the
head of all Latin America as 8 good
customer.
Investments in Cuba
One might safely say that United
States interests have close to $1,000
100000 invested in Cuba and own ap-
proximately 65 per cent of the sugar
business of the island and control by
affiliations of one kind or another a
large share of the balance; that Amer
lean banking interests have outstand
ing loans on the island of $500, 100000,
mostly loaned to sugar mills and on
stocks of sugar in the warehouses; that
in numerous instances the banks must
take over and operate the sugar mills
in order to secure the next crop; mer-
chants throughout the island owe
SAC, Zoo, 600 as the lowest estimate to
American manufacturers and export
ers, and with the stagnation that now
prevails except in the sale Of articles
of first necessity any blow that Wash
ington deals Cuba in the way of in
creased duty on sugar will, opponents
of this part of the Fordney bill assert.
be blow against the interests of the
United States itself.
Early in January last, when the price
of raw sugar was tumbling from prices
around 20 cents a pound toward that
of 31z cents, this government, with the
consent of the State Department at
Washington, acting under the advice of
the most powerful of both Cuban and
American sugar interests here and
with almost unanimous urging of
creditor banks, Cuban and foreign, ap-
pointed commission to control the

Removal of Distress Grain

Prices; lie Above Recent
Low; Corn Follows Wheat

CHICAGO, Nov. 12.-The wheat mar
ket was active and strong to-day and
final quotations were only slightly be-
low the highest, with net gains of 3ss
to 4ssc. Shorts were active buyers
throughout the session, while, further
more, there was q good commission
house demand based on evidences of a
general improvement in the situation
at large.
1c over ,ur holiday on buying credited to
exporters and the British markets were

ceased offering new crop wheat and 1t
was the consensus of opinion among ex-
porters here that the distressed wheat

There were further export inquiries in

high point of the day values were up over
II cents from the low point of the move

The corn market showed firm under
tone. and at one time prices were up / y C
from the final of Thursday, and closing
premiums were sharply higher owing to
efforts on the part of exporters to make
purchases. and shorts covered freely on

sale of the entire sugar crop of the
island.
The Cuban government was obliged
to obtain the consent of at least 75
per cent of the sugar owners Of the
island in order to establish the com
mission, and the laws governing it's
functions were carefully studied to
and clearly indicate that Cuban sugar
was to be sold at competitive prices
with offerings from other countries,
and that all sales must be made
through the commission.
CONTRACTED Sugar"
1t should not be forgotten, however,
that in bringing about the formation
of this Board of Control, or Sugar Com
mission, much opposition arose from
large interests owing to the fact that
they had already made contracts for
the delivery of sugar prior to any
agreement regarding the entry OF their
mills into the control of the board, and
consequently they insisted that their
contracted sugar should be shipped
free from any control, and this was
finally consented to, and the balance of
their stocks of sugar went under the
rule of the commission, but more than
100000 bags of sugar went North
under the term CONTRACTED sugar"
Factors that upset every expert and
prophet began to enter into calculation
early in the year. The actual start of the
grinding season was fully two months
months, and consequently the experts
contendcd that the crop would not pass
100000 tons, but nature irtervened
and gave the island ideal weather for
sugar cane and the soil seemed called
upon to increase the percentage of
sugar in the cane, until lands that nor
mally might be counted upon for cane
running 6 per cent produced a super
abundant crop that ran close to IL per
cent sugar in each stock of cane. Ex-
perts foretold how the statistics given
out from the states as to quantities of
sugar on hand with jobbers, grocers
and householders were totally unreli-
able, and that undoubtedly heavy
shortage prevailed. This, coupled with
the fact that Cuba had board of con-
troll, went toward making everybody
vie with everybody else in producing a
staggering crop of sugar, 28,000,000
bags.

Days Dealings in Bonds

Bond prices maintained strong tone
throughout last week in the face of
considerable proft-taking invited by
the extent of the recent recovery. At
the close yesterday ten railroad bonds
stood at 1881 in the average, against
77.98 week ago; ten industrials at
82.75, against 82.36 week ago; and
five utility bonds at 1880, against
77.30 week ago. These were all new
high averages for the year. The mar
