Consul General Crittenden Sends Re
markable Report Of Brilliant
Possibilities.

Washington, Nov. 20.-Consul- General
Crittenden reports from Mexico to the
State department that Mexican tobacco
promises to take the place of the fine
grades OF Cuban tobacco in the markets
OF the world. The report is an exhaustive
review of tobacco resources of Mexico
and presents the subject in new light.
Gen. Crittenden makes no mention of
the Cuban war as cause of the de-
pletion OF Cuba's tobacco crop, but he
points out that under normal conditions
Cuba's soil has become impoverished.
Under these circumstances, the Consul
General says the worlds requirements
OF what are generally known as Havana
cigars can be supplied only through the
use of Mexican leaf tobacco. Already
great tracts Of country are being operated
as tobacco plantations and the product
equals che best from Havana. England,
France and other countries are using
large quantities of this tobacco General
Crittenden says. 1t promises to make
Mexico rich from it's tobacco alone.
Necessarily, however, Mexico will raise
the leaf and it will be manufactured
elsewhere.
In conclusion he suggests the advis-
ability Of United States commissioner
TO investigate the tobacco and coffee re-
sources of Mexico.
Baltimore, Nov. 19.-Reported pur-
chases Of Havana tobacco in Baltimore
by New York dealers who are endeayor-
ing TO corner the market was confirmed
to-day by local importers. 1t is estimated
that within the past few weeks over 600
bales have been bought in this city by
New York firms.

THE SENATORSHIP
The Populists are Hot Because 1t Ii
Thought They Would Betray Their
Principles

Col. f. A. Olds telegraphs his papers:
'"The names Of the following gentlemen
are mentioned in connection with the
United States Senatorship: Walter
Clark, Cyrus Thompson, Spier Whitaker,
w. A Guthrie. The information that
some Republicans high in their party,
seek the defeat of Pritchard comes very
straight indeed. The Populist State
chairman said to-day he had letters from
twenty-five or thirty Populists, members
Of the Legislature, denying that they
were pledged to vote for Pritchard or for
any gold man. Senator John Mitchell,
one of these, writes that he made the
positive statement before the Populist
and Republican county committees that
he was for no gold man, and he denounces
the statement of Republican Chairman
Idolton that Populists were pledged to
Pritehard as false. Senator Il. IL. Nc
Caskey writes in the same strain, and de-
clares he does not believe a solitary Popu-
list has Internationally pledged himself
to vote for Republican for the Senate.

The Giant Of the Campaign.

Frou the Springfield Mass Republican
II Is only fair TO say that the bearing
OF M Bryan has been such as to invite
and hold the popular respect. II is posi-
bic 10 dissent from many Of his opinions
and yet recognize the brilliant
persistent. desperate f0rtitude that has
made his leadership persuasive beyond
precedent. Ii was his fight. and he has
shrunk from 10 labOrs and spared 10
expenditure IF strength in the battle
which has ended in his defeat. Out Of
the material az it command the Chicago
convention made no mistake in com
hitting its cause 10 the orator who
carried its favor by storm. No other
man could have leiit disorganizel and
clashing interests with the same courage
and untiring faith. or directed a crude
campaign 10 any better results. That
the faith Of this man in his cause has
been unquesti0ned and unfailing no one
need question.

Bryan Might Easily Have Won.

From the Washington Post lndl.
An examination of the figures of last
Tuesdays vote results in some very
curious and interesting revelations. 1t
will be remembered that the Post. from
the very first, insisted that BRYAN s
chances were good, that at any stage
OF the campaign his election was a
possibility, and that McKinley's cleo
ton, although we regarded it as highly
probable, depended after all upon very
narrow and uncertain margin. As IN
answerable proof that we were right in
this, we now call attention to the fol
lowing table, showing how a change of
little more than 25, 600 votes, distributed
over nine states, would have elected
