CINCINNATI TOBACCO MAEKET.-
Cincinnati, o.. November 4, 1898.

The tobacco. trade the past week
has continued at about the same
prices, with little more snap in the
market at times for the better
grades, which were offered more
freely than for some time, but pri-
ces were not up to the holders ideas
for these handsome redricd tobac-
cos, as they have been calculating
to get from Is to - cents. Prices
have ranged from II to Is cents.
and a few of the shippers have been
disposing of their holdings at the
market prices. Medium and low
grades continue in demand and
were firm. The only reason We see
for the good prices of these lower
grades and the low figures for the
very best tObaccos is that the man.
ufacturers are producing manufac-
tured tobacco to compete with COM
petition, and they are using the
lower grades of leaf, and until the
public demands better tobacco We
can only expect the slight difference
TO exist in the prices of the medium
and best grades.
The stocks are gradually decreas-
ing and there is no doubt the entire
stocks on hand will be required to
serve the manufacturers before the
new crop can be manipulated for
use.
A great many of our tobacco men
are of the opinion that the contin-
ued agitation of the manufacturers
combination has a depressing effect
on the leaf trade, but when every
thing gets into working order the
leaf trade will revive, and the small
stocks will he taken at better figures. |
The new crop, IN small quantities,
is coming into market, but being
in winter condition, and with only |
a few buyers for the new goods, |
prices are not established to base
the future upon. The desire to get
a few hogshe ads of new has caused
some very good prices to be paid.
The crop shows some damage by
houseburn, and it is the general
impression that n good portion of
the crop has some damage in this
way, but We hear that certain Sec
tions of the country have some eX-
cellent tobacco. and while it does
not show the color that is dcsirab Die.

LOUISVILLE TOBACCO Market
OFFICE OF THE WEED" Saturday,
Nov. 5, '9S-The Burley market
opened this week with a slightly
better feeling on the part of buy
ers, who were out in full force, but
with no improvement in prices.
The offerings Of redried sweet Bur-
leys were Of fairly good dimen-
sions, but prices continue to drag
heavily. Several lines of medium
types in good order were offered,
but prices were unsatisfactory and
reflections numerous. The few red
filters appearing were eagerly snap
ped up at figures satisfactory to
holders. This type of deaf is be-
coming scarce. Colory trashes were
thought by some to be a trifle
stronger than last week, but quota
tions must remain unchanged
Owners of dry sweet leaf are grad
ually pushing their holdings on the
market, showing that in their esti-
nation the outlook for better prices
in the near future is not encourag.
ing. New Burleys are slowly push
ing their way to the front, but the
quality is generally disappointing
nothing of exceptional merit has
as yet made it's appearance. Lack
of color and signs of house-firine
are the most noticeable features OF
the new crop. The comparatively
small receipts in the face of such
excellent weather conditions excites
considerable comment. The Bur.
ley market is in a waiting mood a,
present. Developments are looked
for consequent on the new deal in
the plug and cigarette trade, which
may have very serious effects OF
this market. The nature of thes,
form u fertile subject for speculation
among the buying element; mean
time the Burley market suffers.

tobacco is King Just Now.

All roads leading TO Viroqua have
been lined with vehicles ladened with
the '97 tobacco crop. The deliveries to
local warehouses and for shipment to
outside points have been large the past
week, and the banks have cashed
checks for fully $4,000 within the week.
During that period twenty carloads of
bundle goods were loaded and shipped
to GAINESVILLE and Stoughton. Samuel
Grund.y and H. Miller did the principal
business in shipping. Large shipments
will follow the current week. Farmers
are anxious to market their crops before
spring work commences.
The local dealers are experiencing some
difficulty in handling their purchases,
because of the urgency Of farmers to
deliver as rapidly as possible. They
are commencing to fear that sorting
and packing will extend into the sum.
mer.
A number of foreign buyers have been
riding the country districts of late, and
the word goes around that the crop is
pretty well disposed of. The prices
prevailing during the season are I'm
changed.
OF the conditions at Edgerton and
other tobacco growing centers, the
Reporter says:
It's the same story of hustle among
the tobacco buyers that has been going
on for two months past that tells of the
present condition of the market Bad
weather nor muddy roads hardly seems
to deter riding, for the growing sections
continue to be canvassed aud trans
actions keep up we'll towards the high
water mark. The present rate of buy
ing will soon reduce the crop 20 mere
fraction and the prospects point to the
cleaning up of the crop before there is
any let up. Prices continue about as
have prevailed heretofore, more of the
crop going at six cents than over that
figure.
The deliveries have been large of late
and most of the warehouses are packed
full of bnndle goods with stock enough
on hand to keep the sorting rooms busy

In its last issue the CENSOR gave an

death of Mrs. Thurston, wife of y. s.

which proved only too true. Local in

fact that she was reared to womanhood

A Washington item says Senator and
Mrs. Thurston were members of con-
gressional party which left Fort Monroe
March 2, for trip to Cuba on the yacht
Anita. The party had stormy mig hit
off Hatteras and put into Charleston
The trip was continued after few days
rest. The Anita first touched Cuba at
Havana and afterwards went to Matsnzas
and Ssgba la Grande. Mrs. Thurston
was in excellent health when she left the
city. She died of apoplexy.
Mrs. Thurston was born in Vermont q
few less than fifty years ago. She was
married to Senator Thurston, who was
then struggling lawyer, on Christmas
day, 1872. AS result OF the union are
three children-a 17-yearold SOD, who
is now student at Har yard college, and
two girls IA and II years old, who are
now in this city. Three children were
buried. Mrs. Thurston took great inter-
est in her husbands public affairs, and
assisted materially 10 his political prefer
ment. During his campaign for the
senatorship, she was present at seventy
four of the seventy-six appointments he
made She was his counsellor as we'll as
a lawyer, appearing in court even with
him as an assistant in several important
cases. She was brilliant woman. She
was literary and painted very well. She
did not have much time to devote to
social circles, as she directed the educa-
ton of her children until they were of
age to enter the high school.
