Matanzas, Aug. 13. 



LIVERPOOL. — Since our last report the market 

 has remained steady and for good extracted honey 

 we quote 40 to 42 cents per lb. The Controller has 

 not yet fixed his price, altho we have attempted to 

 get him to name it. Honey on the spot ha.s there- 

 fore realized good prices becaus-e Iniyers are anxious 

 to get it before any control is exci-cied, when their 

 supplies would probalily become limited. i'here 



have heeii al oul I. (!(»() I.arrels sold al llie following 

 prices:' Chilian, Ist gi'ade, 4:ic per lb.; 2d grade, 

 4 2c; 3d grade 41c; 4th grade, 40V^c; ungraded, 

 :!5-;i7c. Cuhan, 38 to 42c. .lamaiean, 4iy2C. White 

 Haytian, 42c. St. Domingo, 4iy2C. The market 

 for beeswax still remains dull with prices remaining 

 at 48 to 50c per lb. 



We have tried to obtain ,s6me information from 

 the Ministry of I'^ood respecting their contemplated 

 action in controlling honey. We telegraphed them 

 to tri,< to get some definite assurance that the con- 

 trolled iirice would not be less than the present 

 market value, but they replied thoy were unable to 

 give such an assurance. No definite announcement 

 has been made so far which is very vexatious to 

 traders. We ourseilves had an offer of 600 barrels 

 for direct shipment from Cuba but we could not risk 

 bringing it in under the present uncertain circum- 

 stances. Taylor & Co. 



Liverpool, England, Aug. 1. 



MEDINA. — Prices continue firm with oft'ers of

 honey offeirs are very limited. For fancy white

 comb 50c less. Extracted ranges from 19 to 23c at 

 first hands. The results of the order of Aug. ID, 

 putting honey on the Export Conservation list, re- 

 main in doubt. The A. I. Root Co.
