A Boom in Cigars.

The fear that American tariff laws
may come into effect here very soon
and practically without warning has
trade In several directions,
During the past few days there have
been extensive operation in cigars.
All the retailers are keen to gain long
stocks OF the Manila smokers and the
consumers who generally buy By the
box are in many instances laying in
supply by the thousands, The duty on
cigars here Is one cent each. The
United States tariff Is so heavy on
tobacco that II will quite upset the
habits OF the heavy local smokers.
Cigars have been extremely cheap
here, but they will now burn into
money at quite a lively rate.

Sent 20 Washington.

The Advertiser Is enabled to publish,
as news, the two letters below They
throw light on tho gossip that mer
chants here had formed plan TO make

manner. This intimation is repudiat-
ed by the responsible houses signing

Agent: AL
AN INQUIRY.
Honolulu, December %, 1898.
Harold NJ Sewall, Esq, Special Agent
of the United States.
Sir:-The attention of the under
signed importers Of merchandise in
this city has been directed to Wash
ington dispatches OF the 18th and 10th
instants, published in the Pacific Com
mercal Advertiser OF this date. in
which the statement is made that you
as Special Agent for the United States
Treasury, have informed the Secretary
Of the Treasury Department that the
immediate extension OF the tariff laws
Of the United States to Hawaii is i'm
perative in order 10 prevent the "irreg
ular entry OF goods TO the United
States by way of Hawaii" and it is eX-
planned that this irregular entry
means that "a concerted plan of for
eign dealers to send large quantities
OF merchandise to Hawaii and enter II
under the Hawaiian tariff, with a view
Of taking advantage of the nominal
duties, and subsequently ship 1t to
other ports of the United States as
articles Of domestic commerce"
We are OF course unaware as to who
is pointed at when the expression for
eign dealers" is used, but. in justice to
ourselves, II Is proper for us to in
form you that II this communication to
the Treasury Department is correctly
reported, and II by foreign dealers
you desired to intimate that any OF the
undersigned were employed in the i'm
pOrtation OF goods destined for re-eX-
port to the United States whenever the
United States tariff was extended to
the Islands, you have made an unjust
accusation, as no such concerted plan"
exists among the resident foreign deal
erB whose impOrtations are made in
the regular course OF trade and for ex-
elusive use in these islands.
Trusting to be favored by the assur-
ance that the reference to foreign
dealers" above quoted was in no way
intended to apply to us.
We have the honor to be, Sir, your
most obedient servants

A short, clear, entertaining and yalu-
able lesson for amateur weather obsery-
ers is given in the September Ladies
Home Journal in the form of Ia series
of pictures of clouds, with brief explana.
tory notes. The page is well worth
examining and saving, for there is
nothing in the article which could not

ever before as to what the weather will

twenty odd stories about him; none Of
which have ever been printed. They
are of course, of the dcoll sort, bat
not more funny than the snapshot
pictures Of Mark which his friends
have also lorned the magazine. These
too, have never been printed.
