SUGAR MARKET UP
And Prices Expected to Ad
vance Still Higher,
1 0 CENT ADVANCE ALL AROUND
Change Is the Result of Increased
Strength of Raw Sugars In the
East Package Coffees
Also Advance.
The expected advance in sugar materialized
yesteraay, wnen all grades of the reflned ar
ticle went up 10 cent. The market remains
very strong, and the largest holders on the
Coast look for a further advance of at least
20 points. Dry granulated is now Quoted at
Fruit sugar Is offering at SC. 15. The
market is temporarily bare of beet sugar.
The advance In prices Is solely duo to the
situation In regard to raw sugar In the great
markets of the world. The statistical position
Is decidedly strong, with spot stocks showing a
reduction of about 40,000 tons In the past two
weeks. A. New York trade .circular thus ex
plains conditions:
The improvement In the demand is the com
bined result of the better demand for roflned
sugar, the additional decrease In the stocks
here, due to arrivals being only one-half of the
meltings, and the renewed advance In the En
ropean market. The latter we consider the
most influential factor, because tho advance
took place notwithstanding the recent compli
cations in international affairs, and the con
6equent higher rates for money In the Euro
pean ananclal centers.
The favorable statistical situation to which
we have .referred so often, continues to Jm
prove every week, the shortage in the com
bined stock in the United States and Cuba
being now 314.000 tons, or 14,000 tons more
than last week. These figures, at a period
when consumption Is at its height, have not
had the effect on prices which was generally
expected, owing perhaps to the fact that at
each slight rl6e our refiners, have been offered
comparatively large quantities of sugar on the
spot and for shipment, which induced them to
withdraw for a short time, resulting In
temporary lull in the market. The always-
available large quantities of beet sugar in Eu
rope for immediate shipment, to be bought at
a small premium, have also kept the market
from reaching tho prices CArarranted by the
stocks on this side.
Should the dry weather In Europo continue
1 the extent of making an appreciable de
crease In tho output of the growing crop, con
ditions will bo materially changed, for that is
the only source from whore prompt sugars
larg quantities can be drawn unril October.
When the bulk of Java sugars may now be con
sidered as negligible. After October, Louisiana
and the domestic beet sugars will also com
mence to partly supply the demand, especially
as this year the higher prices aro bound to
stimulate an early start of factories.
The outlook for sugars Is favorable for :
further advance, which, however, may be de
layed for some" time by refiners continuing to
make their purchases In a Judicious -nannsr by
shifting their field of operations from one mar
ket to -another, thus securing a air quantity
of sugar without disturbing prices matirlally
Javao continue being offered at 10s 4fcd to 10s
Cd. August-September shipment, but ?u;ll with
out attracting buyers. Unless beets Cecllne. It
is only a question of a few weeks lo-iger v ben
these Javas will find a market here at these
prices, or even higher. The first eteamer
bringing sugar of Java's present crop arr.vtd
in the early part of the week.

CONTRACTION OF TRADING
DIVERSION OF SPECULATIVE IN
TEREST TO PRODUCE.
Resumption of Gold Exports to Eu
rope Has No Effect on the
Stock Market.
NEW YORK. Aug. 5. There was a decided
contraction of business In stocks today. Cam
mission-houses reported the amount of outside
orders as "Insignificant, and the speculative
operators showed hesitation and talnty.
This Is partly due lo a large diversion of
sffcclatlye interest to cott.tn and train
markets, and partly to "the conflicting inflU'
ences from the cotton and wheat crop pros
pects. The effect of these is to cause alter
nate advances and declines In the markets as
a whole, as the effect of the cotton prospects
the wheat prospect becemet: alternately
dominant. The nndertono of the market was
firm today. So far as the produce markets
were an Influence, there was a feeling of sus
plcion of yesterday's violent rise in wheat.
and the roporta of damage to the crop which
accompanied It. Tho r action In the wheat
market itself encouraged the view that the
frlsht over the situation had been -exaggerated.
The views on the exteirt of the damage to the
Spring wheat crop have become so mixed that
nrary operators express a determination to
nwal'. the publication of tr.e uoveraiucitw
estimates of condition ot Angus; 1, wh.cb i
to appear on the 10th, before venturing on fur
ther commitments.
Tho encasement of $2,500,000 in gold for
shipment to Europe next week, and rumors of
further engagements seemed to be accepted
with perfect equanimity by the stock market.
The shipment to Cuba Is of sucn a special
character, and has been so clearly foreseen
that it was totally Ignored, but the movement
to London la regarded as an Indication that
the usual recourse to that center for funds to
move tho crops will be denied this Fall.
The money market was entirely unaffected.
The estimates of tho week's currency move
ment show that the tide from the "Interior Is
uninterrupted, and the large loss to the Sub
treasury on account of the payment of a Cen
tral Paclflc note has been successively reduced
by the dally debits of the Government Insti
tution. A gain of over $3,000,000 In cash by
fhn witiV! is indicated. The sharp recovery In
voonsols in London, helped the early market here.
Reactions at the last were only sugni, uui u
closing was heavy.
Bonds were firm. Total sales, par value.

REACTION IN WHEAT MARKET.
Bearish Advices Cause a Weaker Turn at
Chicago.
CHICAGO. Auk. 5. At tho opening the
wheat market showed .some signs of weakness.
September being unchanged -to Jic lower, at
00e97l4c. With the exception of tavoraDie
weather, however, there seemed little to war
rant any alteration of the recent bullish atti
tude of traders. Influenced by the strength in
English markets, shorts covered freely soon
after the opening, aavancmg tne price oi aep
tember to 9SVic A reaction followed as a re
sult of heavy proflt-taklng. The bearish turn
to the market was clinched by a report of a
Minneapolis crop expert, who has within the
past two weeks sent out numerous extremely
bullish advices regarding the condition of
Spring wheat In the Northwest. According to
the Interview given out today by this author
lty, while wheat ifi the Dakotas and Minnesota
Is damaged by rust, there will be, on the
whole, an excellent aggregate production, with
much 'variation In sample. Many reports re
ceived during the day from the Northwest,
however, were flatly contradictory in tenor.
The market closed rather easy, with September
up.aS'Hc, at 97H37c. Minneapolis, Duluth
and Chicago reported receipts of 222 cars.
against 225 cars last week and 284 cars a year
ago.
Proflt-taklng by Eastern holders was Instru
mental in creating. a weak undertone In corn.
The market closed weak, with prices near the
lowest point of the day. September closed at
52i4'ff52Kc, a loss of &c,
The oats market followed corn in preference
to wheat, a. weak undertone being In evidence
the greater part of the day. September closed
at S3c the low figure,
Provisions were weak in sympathy with lower
prices at the yards, and on selling credited to
local packers. Trading was more animated
than of late, but the volume, of business was
not large. At the close. September pork was
off 17i4c, at $12.77. Lard was down 7H210c,
at $6.90. Ribs closed 7&c lower, at 7.62.

Signs of General Improvement.
NEW YORK. Aug. 5j From almost every
part of the country from which tho Interna
tional Mercantile Agency has received spe
cial' reports this week there are signs of an
Improvement in trade, with better business
on hand than is customary at this season
of the year, and few cancellations as a re
sult of the rather calamitous reports that
have been sent tho past few days from
Spring wheat sections in the Northwest. This
Is a splendid augury for the trado for the
next six months. It is quite remarkablo
how llttla alarm has been evidenced by the
labor troubles that already exist and those
that threaten. Locally, the strike of the
men In the packing-house trade Is of small
consequence, while indications In the West
are that It will soon bo settled.

SAN FRANCISCO MARKETS.
Slump In Speculative Values of Leading
Cereals.
SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 5. (Special.)
Local speculative values of leading cereals
had quite a slump and closed weak. Wheat
futures here have lacked leaders all along
and were easily affected by the Anal drop
In Chicago. Spot wheat further advanced
lMc early in tho day, but may be lower
tomorrow. Barley eased off with wheat op
tions and on heavy receipts. Several large
holders in the country are making a clean
up. The French hark Francois was char
tered to load barley for the United King
dom on private terms, but reported 'to be
Shipowners' Union rates. Oats were Arm.
Flour was well sustained, with good China
Inquiry. Feedstuffs were 'steady. Hay was
easy.
Good shipping peaches, Bartlett pears,
apples and plums were In fair demand for
the Portland steamer at Arm prices, selected
stock being somewhat scarce. Canners have
commenced to buy peaches. Tho ruling
rates aro 525 to $35 por ton for freestones
and $40 to $50 for clingstones. Sultana
grapes are arriving by the carload from
Fresno and the market Is easy at 75c a large
box. Bananas are very weak. A carload
of choice Valencia oranges Is selling at
$2.50 to $2.75.
Potatoes were quieter, the recent advance
having checked trade. Tho Arst Merced
sweets of the season arrived and brought 3c.
Onions were easy. Tomatoes were steady
and selling well. Other vegetables wero
weak. 1
Fancy butter was In lighter supply and
firmer. Cheeso was steady and eggs weak.
Receipts, 54,000 pounds of butter, 07,000
pounds of cheese. 29,000 dozen eggs.
