The attorneys for the Union Tobacco
Company Of America are Seward, Guth-
RE & Steele. Messrs. Guthrie and Steele
said yesterday that. while they had in
corporated the company for some of their
clients, they were not at liberty to talk
Of the new corporation, and declined TO
give a hint Of its plant and scope or Of
the real promoters of the enterprise. The
men named as directors are, as usual in
such cases, dummies" One is a clerk;
the others have no place in any directory
Of New York or Brooklyn.
While the course of the stock market is
not considered correct gauge of crcum-
stances affecting an industry, It was re-
marked that when the news Of the incor-
porauon Of the Union Tobacco Company
was published the common stock of the
American Tobacco Company which at the
opening Of the Stock Exchange sold at
125 -, declined to l25 IL, but quickly rail-
lied. and the last sale was at 100 IL,
against 1876 tho last sale on Monday. At
the same time, two stories, neither Of
which was confirmed or found to be with
out foundation, were current In the Wall
street district. One was that the new COM
pany was formed by men Of the Tobacco
Trust, or who are or have been prominent
ly identified with II. who are dissatisfied
with its management, who have unlimited
capital at their disposal, through an I'M
Outstanding with John ID. Rockefeller and
others identified with the Standard Oil
Company, and who proposed to start in
formidable rivalry TO the trust. 1t was
further stated that at the start the new
company would make a speciality Of the
manufacture Of cigarettes. and that when
permanent officers were elected they
would be found TO be tobacco men who
have been among those at the head Of
the American Tobacco Company.
a more specific statement named w. H.
and James G.. Butler. of st. Louis, and
w. A. Marburg. OF Baltimore, the latter
Of the firm of Marburg Brothers. bought
out by the Tobacco Trust in 1891, as in
terested In the new company. Another
report was that the Union Tobacco Com
pany was simply a revival, under the
best Of financial auspices, of the Con-
tinental Company, and that a policy Of
comfy OF interest between 1t and the
Tobacco Trust as TO plug tobacco would
be followed. Nobody in the lower Wall
Street leaf tobacco trade appeared to
have any information in regard 10 the
Union Company.
George Arents, treasurer Of the Ameri-
can Tobacco Company, said last night
that he had read the announcement OF
the incorporation OF the Union Tobacco |
Company Of America, and that he was !
unable from IL 20 say who the promoters |
OF the enterprise were or what would be |
the operation Of the company He de- |
clined further 70 discuss the matter.

What Is the use OF making a better
article than your competitor II you
eau not get q better price for "?
Ans.-As there Is no difference 10
the price the public will buy only the
better, so that while wi profits may
be smaller on a single sale they will be
much greater ia The aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your make is the best?
II both articles are brought prom
~inently before the public both are GER
tam TO be tried aud the public will
very quickly use cnly the better one.

THERE is a great deal Of talk about
Che Nicaragua canal, aud an earnest
effort will be made to get the bill
providing for It's construction through
this session OF congress. Those who
are enthusiastic in its behalf claim
that II is greatly to the interest OF the
United States to have the canal built
at the earliest possible moment. This
II rather a broad statement, for there
are large sections OF the United States
shat have no interest in the canal, one

which the canal will seriously hurt.

Brief History of the Former "Partso-
Her Armament.
AT the time when so much interest
is being taken in the cruiser yale" a
brief history of the boat may be of in
terest to the public. The steamer was
built by ]. & W. G. Thomson in Glas-
gov In 1889 for the Inman line. with
the understanding that she could be
used by Great Britain as an auxiliary
cruiser in case of necessity. The boat
was named by the company "The Citv
or Paris, according to their custom
OF naming boats after the great cities
of the world. In 1892, by an act of
congress this boat, with the others in
the same line, were given American
registry on the condition that the COM
pany, the name of which had been
changed to the american Line
should build in the United States. two
boats of equal tonnage to the paris"
and New York." within five wears
The boats built were the est Louis"
and the "St. Paul" When the name of
the company had been changed from
the "Inman Line" to the "American
Line" the names of the boats were also
changed, the words "City of" being
dropped, and the last name only being
kept.
The yale" which is the sister shin
of the Harvard was built one wear
later than the Harvard" The boat
is $50 feet long, 63.3 feet in breadth and
has depth of AZ feet The gross ton
mage of the yale" is 10, 795, and her
net tonnage $3.50 tons. Her engines in
dictate 10000 horse power. The govern
ment will not put armor on the yale"
or an any of the other boats of the
same class, but will rely on their
speed to take them out of danger if
they are attacked by heavy battleships.
The boats are efficient against other
auxiliary cruisers and small gunboats.
The armament of the yale" will con-
sist of several modern rapid firing
guns, the whole number not being over
fifteen or twenty. The Yale" is now
on her way for New York. Her best
record in crossing the ocean is 3 days.
