SUGAR GOES HIGHER

The expected advance In sugar came yester
day, and it was larger than was looked for. ,
All grades, cane and beet, went up 4uc per
100 pounds. The market remained firm after
the advance, so a further upward movement
In the near future is predicted. The advance
Is due to the FtrW statistical position of the
sugar market, and the fact that the competing
refineries have adjusted their differences and,
are bringing their prices up to the level neces
sitated by tho law 4f supply and demand. Of
the short supply of sugar In the markets of
the world and conditions in the East, a New
Tork trade circular says:
Early in the week, when there was a slight
decline in European beets, our raw sugar mar
ket showed signs of becoming quieter, and it
was more difficult to sell distant sugars, espe
cially cargoes which could not arrive until
late In December or early In January. But
conditions suddenly changed when news was
cabled of the effects of the frost and thaw on
bets. with the additional Information that Mr.
Licht estimated the damage to German beets at
0 per cent. If the damage in Germany
Is 5 per cent, a decrease of 03,000 tons must
be made in the estimates of German produc
tion, and as similar weather conditions pre
vailed over the greater part of the European
beet sections, it is natural to suppose that the
damage extended to nearly all the- European
crop, and that the last estimate of a total crop
of 5.730,000 tons may yet be reduced to 6,500.
000 tons. As a result of the foregoing condi
tions, the world's visible supply on October 1,
1003. may only show 500.000 tons to 000,000
tons, to' ."be -carried into the following season,
which Is a small quantity in view of a con
sumption which has increased to over 10,000.000
tons per annum. The sugar situation is, there
fore, even -stronger than before, particularly
for prompt sugars, or for sugars for delivery
after the first pressure of new cane crops Is
over. Java new-crop sugars for June ship
ment hn-e lately been sold to Japan. -India,
etc., at 0s 3d c f.. which Is equal to nearly
10s c. f. to United States. Mauritius sugars
are also going to India, where, owing to the
countervailing duties on beets, higher prices
are obtainable for cane sugars. The disparity
between cane and beets Is rapidly disappearing,
and the two should reach the same level and
remain there until cane sugars become more
plentiful, which Is not likely to be before Feb
ruary, as Cuban sugars will be late.
Figures derived from official sources show
that the largest national consumption of sugar
is n the United Kingdom, where it Is 01.6
pounds per capita annually. The United States
comes next, with a consumption of 6S.4 pounds
per capita, and then Switzerland, Norway,
Denmark and Sweden, each far exceeding the
consumption of either France or Germany. The
nations with the smallest per capita consump
tion arc: Spain, 10.0 pounds; Turkey, 8 pounds;
Roumanla. 7.8 pounds; Greece, 7.2 pounds; and
Italy. C.1 pounds.
Relatively, sugar Is very, cheap In the United
Kingdom. The retail price there Is 4g?Gc a
pound, whereas lh sugar-producing Austria,
for instance, where only the local product Is
used, the price is a pound, presumably on
account of heavy special taxes.
It is estimated that- the -augar. production
of the world has increased eightfold in the
past CO years. In 1S40, the figures were 1.150,
0CQ tons, while now they are about 0.000.000
tons annually. The development of the beet
sugar industry accounts for much of this In
crease. The industry has grown from a prod
uct of 30.000 tons, in 1840, to 0,000.000 tons.
During the same period, the cane-sugar product
has Increased from . 100,000 tons to 3.000.COO
tons. In 1840, beets supplied 4.35 per Cent of
the world's total sugar product; In 1000, 67.71
per cent.
LATB HOP SALES.
Do Sot Indicate a Weakening: of the
Jfarket.
Hopgrowors are selling a little more freely,
which lends an appearance of Weakness to the
market. The condition Is apparent rather than
real, however, for the prices are as good, if
not better, than have been realised for the
same grade of - hops any time this season.
Latert sales ranged from 23c to dc for prime
to choice. No strictly choice hops are known
to have changed hands this week, although
many growers believe all their hops are of this
quality. It Is doubtful If many of the top
grade are still In first hands. Between 500
and CC0 bales have changed hands In the past
few; days. Carmlchael took Lee Loy's crop at
Butteville. some 200 bales, at 23Vc The Chi
naman's hops go to London. Phil Nets bought
103 bales at Woodburn at 25ic or 25&e, and
Metzler bought between 50 and 100 bales, at
25c
Brewers are not expected to do any buying
before the first of the year. Most of the big
breweries are stock corporations, and will close
up the year's accounts before they enter the
hop market as buyers. Local dealers say they
cannot get offers from the East. The New
York Journal of Commerce of Novembef 29
paid:
It was pointed out by a well-informed In
terest, who was a strong believer in the future
of that market, in figuring on the avail
able supplies in this country for the current
season that the probable increase in imports
this season, which were put at 20,000 bales,
are fully offset by the decrease In the reserves;
the crop, it is estimated, is about 50,000 bales
smaller than a year ago; consumption about
15.000 bales greater, and exports possibly the
same, thus showing an apparent deficit of 03 -000
bales.
More than half of the Oregon crop of this
year has been sent East. Since the opening of
the season. 46,000 bales have been shipped
East. There are In warehouses In Portland
and throughout the Valley. 23,000 bales, and
competent authorities estimate the amount In
growers' hands at only 12.000 bales. This
figuring will place the d902 crop at 81,000 bales,
which Is 4000 bales less than the estimates
made early In the season.
Albany Hop Sales.
ALBANY, Or., Dec. 4. (Special.) Fabcr &
Ntls. of this city, today purchased the Albany
Farm Company's lot of SS bales of hops for
25,c per pound. This Is the best price yet
recorded here.
J J. Graham, of this city, today sold to Lll
lenhal & Co. his entire crop of hops, consist
ing of 1P.700 pounds, at 25e per pound. Gra
ham raised these hops on 20 acres of ground.
Another Advance Expected.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec 4. Local dealers say
there would be no great surprisecccasloned
were the Western Sugar Refining Company to
e'.rvate prices again In the near future, as the
egar market here is still 20c per 100 pounds
less than the ratss In New York, which is an
unusual condition, as sugar prices are gener
ally lower In New York than In San Francisco.

Pepper Stock. Low.
Latest mall advices received from Europe
give some Interesting comparative statistics on
pepper. The exports of black from the Straits
to Europe and the United' States since 1892
have been steadily decreasing. During 1802
they were 20.100 tons, dropping to 0300 tons In
1808; In 1001. they -were 10.500 tons, and for 10
months ended October 31. 1002, they were 10,
520 tons. Stocks of white and black, pepper In
Europe decreased from 428,300 sacks October 1,
1807, to 206,300 bags October lf 1002; In the
United States during the same period- they de
creased from 72,400 bags to 9500 bags.

Attempt to Put Up Prices of Stocks
Ended in a Decline, With the
Market Stngaant.-
NEW YORK. Dec 4. There was another
attempt to put up prices of stocks this room
ing, but It did not succeed, and the market
soon became weak, final prices being consid
erably lower than last .night. After the first
hour business was stagnant until an active sell
ing movement developed In tho last hour and
carried urlces to the lowest point of the day.
In the interval there were occasional periods
of absolute Idleness On the floor 'of the ex
change. Many of the most prominent stocks
were not .quoted, at all from hour to hour. The
buslncrs was aimoit entirely In the hands of
professional room traders, and' many of the
more conspicuous commission houses had not
as much as 1000 shares to execute in the
market.
The effort to advance prices was apparently
based on the somewhat easier tone which de
veloped late yesterday In the call loan market,
but the developments of the day precluded any
hope of early ease In money and prompted the
traders to change their position. They then
sold stocks to force a lower level of prices for
the simple reason that they were unable to ad
vance prices without meeting large sales to
realize.
The tone of the money market, which con
tinues very firm, is convincing evidence that
the banks have lost to the Subtreasury. The
decline In the bank reserves thlsx week will
probably be between $0,000,000 and $7,000,000.
The Bank of England retained Its 4 per Cent
minimum discount rate this week, and the pri
vate rate went lower in tho London market.
The Bank of France statement shows a loss
of about $500,000 in gold, but Its loans have
been contracted about $36,000,000, although the
note Issues have Increased over $10,000,000.
The Bank of England has. lost gold to tho ex
tent of about $3,675,000 during the week. There
was no transfer of currency to the Interior
through the Subtreasury today.
The advance In the price of refined sugar and
in the price of copper, both here and In Lon
don, made Sugar and Amalgamated Copper
comparatively firm. Fort Worth & Denver
City rose sharply on the prospect of an In
creased dividend disbursement In February
Reports from trade authorities of a downward
tendency In the price of Iron products and a
holding back Of orders on account of high cost
were rather depressing Influences.
Bonds were dull and easier. In sympathy with
stocks. Total sales, par value, $1,860,000.
United States 3s, registered, declintd U per

EXPECT LOWER PRICES.
Ko Large Bnying In tlie Iron Trade
Movement In Ralls.
CLEVELAND. Dec. 4. The Iron Trade Re
view has the following to say relative to the
Iron market:
Art expectation of lower prices is. abroad la
the iron trade to an extent that prevents any
large buying covering a 'period of months. Yet
the amount of Inquiry coming up week after
week Indicates that consumption Is not lessen
ing, and the buyers are keeping close track of
conditions, so that they may not fall of needed
materials.
The reductions In Bcvcral finished lines have
affected the pig Iron market, bringing prices
to a more conservative basis and putting an
end to any lingering boom feeling. Railroads
have gained ground also In their attack upon
the freight embargo, ahJ furnaces In the Cen
tral West note a marked Improvement In the
coke situation. If this should be kept up, aid
ed by the release of cars that have been hurry,
ing coal to lower Lake portions f6r the last
trips up, there will be pfg Iron enough to go
around, and every month In the year will add
to the active furnace capacity.
While the Ideas or sellers of foundry iron as
to the proper prices for the second half of 1003
have been revised somewhat, there Is little in
terest In such sales, and the prospects are Tor
a hand-to-mouth market for the next few
months. MtanwhUe foundry iron for the first
quarter and first hair of 1003 can be bought
6C0J$1 lower than was possible a few weeks
ago. In the South an Important development
! a movement io consolidate some of the Iso'
lated furnaces In the eastern part of'AHbama,
with a view t6 strengthening them in raw ma
terials. The Central West, Including the Pittsburg
district, shows a waiting pig Iron market, wltn
no expectation of an early resumption of heavy
buying. Steel maintains Its firmness in the
face of light buying, and Bessemer bllletB have
sold at $20020 25 at .Central Western mills.
The Import movement ""is lighter, with ho
changs in price. Statistics for October show
that the total Imports of pig Iron, steel and
Iron and steel products In that month Wore
lighter than In September a significant turn
In the foreign trade that will be worth watch
ing. Rails have been the mo active department
of the market of lote. and It Is estimated that
2ffl).O0o tons -have been sold in the past-fortnight,
chiefly for dMlvery In tho Fall of 1903.
