THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL. PORTLAND. SATURDAY EVENING. 'DECEMBER 11. 100'J. ,ATET NEWS W WmW)9 MMIEEHS "MUKIJACK JACK" TO JK(iivKXin:AiJixa so 10 TO 20 CENTS HIGHER Dry Granulated Put on the f Same Basis as Berry and Fruit Grades Today. ' Yhere waa an advance of 10c to 20c per J 00 pouwls In the prie or susar tltis roornin:, the change taking effect ni ones, . Both refineries re quoting t)i uiki .figures. . The adtama in reaular gradee of su par amounted to 10c. while ordinary ratio granulated waa advanced 20c. This put the latter on exactly the same ft.ndtng aa fruit and berry. Thla la ?ha first time that uch lias been tha rati for a long; time. . While tl advance In sugar had been expected In noma quarters for a long time, lust why euch a movement waa Dim! at thla time la a mystery to the trade. However, there la no denying the strength of the market because under- normal conditions the price of ordinary granulated would not have liewn Placed on a. oar with tha finer grinding". Saga Was Thing of ast ' In today'o taking off of the differ ential between coarse and fine sugar t lie trade haa come to the conclusion that the various refiners ara working hand in hand. There haa been no such change tn prices, except during tlmea r.f erarelty, since tha advent of tha California Hawaiian Sugar Refining company Into the coast field. In noma quarters It Is even rumored that the California 4 Hawaiian com pany haa been practically put under tha wing of the. American Sugar Refining company, the sugar trust, and in con trol of the Western Sugar Refining company. . Should this be so It would prove a perlous blow to the trade, as competi tion would be completely shut off. Jlowever, so far as competitive prices ere concerned, it has been a long time since such "ruled In this territory. An advance or decline by one refinery is' always followed by a similar movement by the other. . ; Today's jobbing price on fruit or bprry is 15.95. while ordinary dry gran uiated has been moved from $5.75 to ;the game figure.
