Is the consensus of opinion of large poten tial and well informed sugar dealers, who. having m mind their senous louses dur ing lit 20, are now proceeding very cau tiously. These men. who know actual conditions, are all united In the belief that the most of the 1.21MV.O0O ton Cuban surplus of January 1. 192U. hum gone to make up our present invisible supply. Considerable quantities are held by importer- and speculators and but a small percentage has gone to increased con sumption. This large surplus stock ha merely been transferred from Cuba to the United State and having been at tracted to investors on account of the very low prices prevalent during the spring will, with the first signs of weak ness, press these holdings on the market, thus precipitating a decline, resulting In losses of lones of recent date at prevail ing high prices. Suggest caution to buyers. Wiliett & Gray, sugar statisticians, say there is 1,275.202 of raw sugar In Cuba, American ports, and anoat to ports. This amount, with the new beet sugars just becoming available in the wpM, and the Louisiana crop yet to be harvested, is. in our opinion, ample to prohibit further In creases In price of raw sugar.

Many Stocks Score Gains and Practically All fclose at Day's Best Prices. BY ALEXANDER DANA NOTES. - (By Chicago Tribune Leased VVire.) NEW YORK, Aug. 7. Such news as came, to light over Sundty concerning: either our own labor controversies or the London conference was sufficiently re assuring to prove that the stock ex change bad been well advised . last week in its attitude of composure. v To oay's market reopened in what appeared to be an a-tmosphere of still greater con fidence that the solution of the coal and railway strike problems was not far dis tant. Railway shares led the further recovery which occurred, many of them advancing a. point or more And praciicai 'ly all of them closing at the day's beat prices. - The president's proposal made to both parties in the shopmen's controversy in the afternoon that the seniority question be left for decision to the railway la bor board may have embodied the turn of events which financial markets liad been expecting. Probably it will not be regarded in conservative financial cir cles as an ideal solution, when the re fusal 05 the executives to concede' resto ration of such prior rights to returning strikers was based on the ground ol! good faith to the loyal men. and when uniform precedent of previous railway strikes has been against such restora tion of rights when a strike was set tled." If the new proposal Is accepted bv managements and unions, the shop men's strike will doubtless end, but the judicial quality of the labor board would be tested exactlngly afterward. Without regard to this proposal in the railway strike, financial judgment con tinued hopeful regarding results of the ma t strike conference ; this rtotwU h- reasonable basis for agreement. This hopefulness rests largely on belief - in the recognition, -by both sides in the controversy, but especially iby labor, that the fuel embargo cannot be allowed to continue; there was no news from Cleve land during the day, either confirmatory of that view or otherwise. Nor was there any means of learning what was the actual drift of things at the "London conference, which today resumed discussion of German repara tions. This time the course of foreign exchange gave little or no clew even to financial judgment. The Paris rate de clined, while the mark rose slightly, and sterling was distinctly strong. Today's top rate ofc $4.4$hi for sterling was the highest mark reached In more than sev en weeks. COPPER STOCKS SHOW DEMAND -4. " ' , . Rubber Tire Stocks t'nder Pressure and ' Lose Points.
