Greater Activity and Strength
Shown in Recent Trading
Than for Months, Price
Is Up

NEW YORK. July eo.-The sugar
market has shown greater activity
and strength during the past few
days than at any pre- vious time in
months. Prices continued to advance
during the week, raw sugars increas-
ing from 4.25 to AGO cents a pound
and refined rising from $50 to BIS
cents, less the usual cash discount.
AAheavy increase in the demand
from consumers has been in evidence
since the first OF July. Retailers and
wholesalers have been keeping, their
close to the floor for months
and were compelled by increasing
sales to place orders with rehners for
immediate delivery. The refners
themselves had allowed raw stocks to
fall to. a fraction of their usual pro-
portions. They were quickly over
sold and had to repenish their raw
sellers views.
The Cuban sugar commission.
which hos been out of the market for
weeks. maintained its position that
Cuban raw sugar was worth 3 cents a
pound. cost n freight equal to $50
cents duty paid. and was able to

sis, the market having advanced to
meet its views.
Reports from interior points state
that existing stocks of beet sugar are
being rapidly absorbed. Information
from Chicago Is to the effect that be
tween 10000 and o 1000 tons had been
moved in the first hve business days
the month and that stocks had
been reduced % per cent since
