Sugar Falls
in Face of
New Probe
Several New York Operators
Served With Subpoenas by
Federal Agents; Action by
Grand Jury Rumored.
Officers Refuse to Talk

New York. May 11.--lnvestigation
10y a federal grand jury of trading III
raw sugar futures on the New York
Coffee and Sugar exchange was fore
cast today, when several operators in
raw sugar were served with sub
poenas by agents of the Department
of Justice.
Federal attorneys investigating the
high cost of sugar refused to affirm
or deny that the subpoenas were for
appearance before the grand jury.
While none of the sugar men sub
poenaed would disclose the nature OF
the summons. the news spread
through the exchange and caused a
general liquidation Of raw sugar fu-
lures. prices closing at % to 50 points
lower than Thursday.
Spot Prices Slump.
Spot sugar declined t.Sc as the
news spread and large offerings at
3-Sc per pound, cost and freight,
were made. with no takers at the
close. The sugar traders had be-
ieved that the government would not
continue its investigation of sugar
prices after the federal circuit court
had denied its application to join
trading in raw sugar futures on the
exchange.
No information could be gained at
the offices of the federal attorney re-
garding the nature Of the investiga-
ton for which subpoenas had been
issued. Government agents would
say nothing in regard to the govern
ments next move. 1t was pointed
out. however. that an indication Of
the true state of affairs could be seen
in the fact that. although the supply
of raw sugar remained the same. the
prices of raw sugar futures had de-
that the grand jury would investigate.
Conspiracy Charged
Despite the fact that the govern
ment's petition for a temporary in
junction to restrain trading in raw
sugar futures unless backed by
actual ownership or control OF the
sugar dealt in had been denied by
the federal circuit court. it was stat
ed that the governments case charg.
ing that raw sugar futures trading, as
operated by the exchange and its
clearing house, constitute conspir-
acy in restraint of trade in violation
Of the Sherman law had yet to be
heard.
The % subpoenas issued for mem
bers and officers Of the exchange and
its clearing association were still in
, force. it was said.
