Tobacco Market
RICHMOND. VA, May ~

RICHMOND. VA, May ~.
Not single real interesting feature
has presented itself this week in our
market, and it is mystery how the trade
a, large drags along from day to day and
week 10 week. with so little to occupy the
senses. To day there was no auction or
private sales, and the week through sales
have been very light and Of a most nom
descript character A few medium plan.
tiers crops sold at better than last weeks
prices, but there is nothing fine or eyen
very good Offering The seasons we
have had ought to fully test the quantity
of tobacco in planters hands, as they can
prize easily in this season. Re-dryers
and shippers have had good strike this
week, and no doubt our house receipts
will sooL be swelled with re-dTied stock
from all parts BY the middle of June
the Government contracts will probably
be awarded and in full operation. France
has already announced by the Consulate
of New York that her wants Of Virginia
and Western leaf will be 90 per cent less
than last year II remains to be seen
what prices will be paid. The 1887
crop contains some excellent export leaf,
which is also one adapted 10 home use,
and we hope for the latter reason that
foreign buyers will not be allowed to
have their own way with prices. The
old common and medium stocks carried
over is the greatest drawback TO the
trade. For these there is no present de-
mand or outlet. Foreign markets that
usually take these grades, such as Spain,
Antwerp, and Bremen, are very reluctant
in having more; the two latter markets
reports are dscouraging to shippers. The
English markets are with all
very quiet, and seem to follow
only the movements and spirits of our
home markets In the face OF all this
unsatisfactory condition OF tobacco. in
this Sta'e we have the uncertainty Of the
tax, making business worse still. IL the
members of Congress only knew from
personal observation the distress and
damage caused by their delay, it would
surely arouse every one of them TO
quicker action In the matter. Planters
who read little that is printed and heed
less what they read. and regard all that
is said about tobacco simply against
their interest, will no doubt. II they
possibly can, plant big crop in Virginia
and North Carolina, and as surely as
they do il will be for them a
worse failure than il they had entirely
failed in plants this year With The
markets at present stocked with what
cannot be sold without the greatest sacri-
fee, they will persist in making bad
worse by another big crop. The weather
has been good for plants aud planting, as
the plants are only somewhat backward.

The Silver State gives an account of q
sad accident Saturday night at WInne-
mucca which resulted in the death OF
Simon J. Lark, a young man % years
of age, who was in the employ of tho
railroad company as car sealer. About
midnight he got off the yard engine
which began making up a train, and
soon his lifeless and mangled remains
were found on the track, the engine
having passed over him. How he came
to his death is not known, and probably
never will be, as the last seen of him
alive was when he got off of the engine.

ED. INDEPENDENT,


ED. INDEPENDENT,
Dear Sir:-Your correspondent had
the pleasure of visiting tho home of
Hugh Martin Esq, of Bruneau, on the
4th of July and starting from this place
at about 6 P. N. on the 3rd, accompa-
MED by Mr.. s. Smith and wife and the
'Kid of the I. Fl. Ranch" with Mr..
Enos as our escort, and after q ride
over the hills of about six and half
hours we were compelled to camp for
the night at distance of about one and
| half miles from Mr.. Martins house.
On rising the next morning we found
| that We had taken u circle and had
traversed it more than once. But we
reached Mr.. Martins at about sunrise
on the morning of the 4th, and, after
partaking OF a hearty breakfast the
guests poured in en- masse, and to say
that We were entertained handsomely
would only half express the sentiment
of all who were present. Our host in
the first place made us aware that we
were gathered there for the purpose OF
celebrating the Anniversary of Americas
Independence, and the manner we did
celebrate will never be erased from the
memory of any one TINT was among the
number present. I will only mention
few that I remember of the fair sex /:
Miss Addio Hunter, Mrs. ]. Adams,
Miss Adams, Miss Cullen, of Elko;
Miss Scherff, OF Wells; Mrs, Hoover
and Miss Hoofer, of Mountain City;
Mrs. West and family, of this vicinity;
Mrs. Schofeld, Of Island Mountain; Mr..
and Mrs. Samuel Beroth, of Bruneau
Valley, and host Of other ladies whose
names do not remem Der. The gentle
men present were SO numerous that to
mention theln would require more space
than care to claim
We we're entertained with horse rae
ing, foot racing and dancing until the
sun rose on the morning Of the 9Th, and
after partaking OF repost prepared by
our genial host We babe him good bye,
wishing him many happy returns Of the
day we celebrate.
