The production yields of Lambda s, <(Lambda)over bar>s, Xi(-)s, and <(Xi)over bar>(+)s relative to the production of negative particles are presented for sulphur-tungsten interactions at 200 GeV/c per nucleon. These production yields are compared to those produced in proton-tungsten interactions and the enhancements of strange and multistrange baryons and antibaryons are presented.
