SUGAR FOR JAM-MAKING.
DELAY TO SHIPMENTS. The sugar which the Government has ordered from Australia, with a view to meeting the demand for jam-making, is likely to be delayed in transit, owing to the stewards’ strike. No definite information has yet been received as to when the sugar will be shipped, but the authorities are apprehensive lest it be delayed for such a period as to defeat the object for which it is being imported. A quantity of Java sugar, destined for New Zealand, is at present delayed in Australia, and there is some uncertainty as to when it will be delivered in the Dominion. In one or two instances contracts for the delivery of Java sugar during the present month have been cancelled, owing to the impression that there is no possibility of the sugar being delivered by the specified time.
