It is also ad vised ~ that the Commission will hold meetings, in Frederiksted tomorrow and io <his ' town on Thursday at which the mer- ' ehants will be he'rd as regards L heir . stock of sugar-and be required t-der . oath to state the guantity they have on ' ~ hand. ; | It is argued that the sugar factories ' hold considerable stocks ot sugar and | should be. prepared to make some effort | to relieve the present unusual cornditicn | of the market, and il necessary sustain | some loss in doing so, they being in a " more favorable position to sell sugar ' cheap than the Jtew merchants who have bought the sugar from the factor- ies and at hest made but small profit and hold no large supply. 'This ~onten- tion mmy sound very well and perhaps it is not wholly unreasonabie; but it must not be overlooked that the Factories have al: ready sold to the local merchants con- . siderably more sugar than has been eon- sumed or. in facr, retailed since. This is ~an evidence that a surplus remains in the hands of those who ought to dispose of it at fair prices seeing that they cannot ship it and command the prices ruling in the States the iucrative market there being the ¢xcuse for wishing to put up prizes here. Whv should the sugar factories be required to surreader a parc of their stock at this time waen the very people to whom they sold it at the then low price still hold enough to meet the local de nand for some time. | LOCAL. [ ' It is learhed that a merchant here has sold his stock of sugar for export ~ to Porto Rico receiving 14 cents U. S. - currency apound. | The Lighthouse tender which arrived . here on Saturday went to Frederiksted . and left there yesterday taking Lieut. | O’Hagan’s family to Porto Rico where | he is now stationed. | The New York quotation for sugar as | publishad by the W. I. &P. Tel. Co., | last night, is 15.30 cents; or 19.28 local cu.rency. Itis the highest price ever 1° known quoted for sugar in all the annals of this island’s history as suzar produc- ing territory. * An enjoyable evening was spend at . the theacre last night when the pro- ! gramnme advertised was presented be- fore a representative audience.
