SHORTAGE ON SUGAR
All Grades of Refined Take
Ano'-her Advance.
CANE AND BEET 20 CENTS UP
Raw Sngrar Advancing All Over the
"World Active Trade la
Green find Country
Pfoduce.
Sugar moved up 20c per 100 yesterday, an
ad-ancc of COc la the past week and 80c in
the fortnight. The advance, -which- was expect
ed, covers all grades. Doth cane and beet. One
reason for the strength of the sugar market is
raid to De the short crop of beet sugar in
Europe, which in Germany alone is estimated
to amount to 1,200.000 ton. This shortage
has caused a material advance of raw sugar
all over the world, particularly in Germany,
-which seems to be the present controlling fac
tor in establishing the values of sugar. The
raw sugar is today higher in Hamburg and in
London than it is in the United States. Amer
ica Is still compelled to draw a good portion
of her supply from Europe. The refiners have
to pay this advance, and in order to get out
even, they necessarily have to advance the
price of the refined article. The prices that
have been ruling up to about GO days ago for
the raw article have been the lowest ever ex
isting, and far below the cost of production.

pany. The wire stated that a block of 70 car
loads was picked up In one district alone yes

STOCK TRADING LIGHT
PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY WAS IN
AMERICAN SUGAR.
Movcraent Dnc to the Advance in.
Price of Refined Developments In
the Money Market.
NEW YORK, Dec 0. Today's transactions
In stocks - were smaller than those. - of. yester
day. Only-a few got as much as a pointaway
from last night's cloe at any time during the
day. There 'was a slight advance in the morn
ing In sympathy with" special' movements In
one or two stocks, hut a reaction' in the after
noon carried the level of prices below last
night all around, and the market closed easy
but very dull.
Quito an active speculation in Sugar was the
principal Influence In saving the day's dealings
from actual stagnation. The movement was
accounted for by the announcement during tho
day of an advance in prices of refined sugars.
After this announcement, the stock reacted.
The emphatic disclaimers of recent rumors o
a compromise among the warring copper fac
tions and a late reaction in the London cop
per market today combined to cause a reac
tion in Amalgamated. The movement of these
two stocks had an Important sympathetic effect
upon the whole market, owing to the prepon
derance of the dealings In them. In the late
weakness Louisville was conspicuous for a drop
of li below last night.
Today's developments In the money market
offered no prospect of early relief, and until
that- prospect appears, no revival in specula
tion Is expected. The Subtreasury took from
the money market $1,418,000, bringing its total
absprptlon since the last bank statement up
to $2,584,000. The Subtreasury also had a
.credit at thev clearing-house this morning, in
dicating a continued drain from the money
market. Late in the day rumors were' current
without confirmation, of a further shipment of
gold to be made to South America. Today's
sterling exchange market here was firm, in
eplte of additional offerings of loan bills, and
another day's - large foreign demand, both or
wheat and cotton, but the sterling rate at
Paris 'reacted 1 centimes, the United States
raising the gold export level of sterling. The
call loan market was not quite so stiff, owing
partly to the almost total lack of demand but
CO and 00-day loans were made at 7 per cent,
and for four month both C and 8 per cent were
paid. Holders of stocks are very loth to mar
ket securities, owing to the poor absorptive
power of the market. On the other hand, there
is little active Inclination to pay above G per
cent for money to hold railroad stocks at prices
which yield generally less than 5 per cent.
The bond market was little more than nom
inal, and the movement was Irregular. Total
sales, par value, $1,655,000. United States old
4s. coupon, advanced , and the registered
declined U per cent on the last call.
