The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1899-08-11
New YORK August 5. '99.

The month of August has opened quite
brislzly and breaks the spell Of dullness
of the dog days. Plenty of buyers are in
the market and their eagerness to pur-
chase is restrained only partly by the
incompleteness of the sampling of the
new crops and partly by the damage
which the sampling has disclosed. The
truth has to be told frankly and plainly,
for it cannot serve any possible purpose
to conceal it. The Eastern goods show a
good deal of damage: in goods that were
thoroughly cleaned in packing the dam
age is comparatively slight and confined
to the lower grades. But the percentage
of damage increases in goods that were
packed as received from the farmer and
in some of these instances the percent
age is rather high. The clean goods are
buyer, and they command pretty stiff
prices Connecticut seconds sell for 20
to 3Oc, and some lots were sold at the
big as the selling figures apparently
make it, because the value of the thrown
out and damaged tobacco has to be de
sold for export at the rate of about 4115c.
NoEoTluoltSS several nuuQICu CdS0S OI
the new Connecticut Havana seed, mostly
seconds, and nearly thousand boxes of
Big Flats are in demand for little cigars
and fine Connecticut seconds as a sub
stitute for light Havana wrappers: hence
the high figures. Of old filler stock,
some good sales were also made. Among
them one of a couple of hundred boxes
of 81 Zimmer's at near 22c, and of '97
Pennsylvania at 18c. These, however,
were exceptionally fine packings.
In the Havana market the sale of nine
hundred and odd bales of Remedies, of
which full details are given elsewhere,
was the most remarkable transaction.
In other respects Havana sells at such
lively rate as the few thousand bales in
stock will make it 60 around.
The Sumatra sells now rather below
than above the average of the weekly
consumption.-J

HAS SEEN GREAT EVENTS
STIRRING EXPERIENCES OF
COTTON CLAYTON.
London Times Correspondent Now
Here Who was i'm Jemieson's Raid
and Saw Dewey's Great Victory.

Cotton Clayton. a correspondent OF
the London Times, who has been i'm
and been a part of some OF the world s
recent most stirring events, is a vsi-
tor in Honolulu He came here from
Manila where he was during the whole
time of the Spanish American war and
witnessed Dewey's destruction of Mo-
tojo's fleet from the British man of war
Immortalite.
Before he went to the Orient he had
been all over Africa and was with ia
mieson's raiders i'm the Transvaal in
1895. In this picturesque fiasco ne re-
ceived two bullet wounds from Lee
Metford rifles, the scars of which he
carries yet.
Mr. Clayton reached Manila March
Both of last year, just three weeks be-
fore war was declared, and just a
month before Dewey sailed into Ma
Mia bay with the American fleet. Near
ly all the descriptions of Dewey's vic
tory which have reached American
readers have been written from the
view point of the American fleet. Mr..
Clayton saw it from the British fleet
and his description adds many matters
of interest which necessarily escaped
observation from the American vessels.
Not the least interesting of these are
his descriptions of Spanish marksman-
ship. The utter lack of craftsmanship
from the Spanish vessels as he de-
scribes 1t seem more like the farce of
comic opera than one would imagine
possible in the serious business of real
war.
The rapid introduction of certain
Americanisms into Manila is one of the
after results which struck Mr.. Clay
ton. Among these are the flood of
American newspapers that have sprung
into existence there within the past
few months, and the torrent of saloons
which have inundated the town. When
he went to Manila a year ago there
there were twenty-seven saloons in the
city, When he left nine months later
there were LOO. The price of whiskey
during that time went down from a
dollar a bottle to dollar a quart,
and good Scotch whiskey at that.
AS to the situation there, Mr.. Clay
ton thinks the Philippines are the big
gest white elephant" a nation ever
got it's hands on.

DISARMAMENT OF d.

Company D, N. G. H., has been final
ly mustered out of service. At a meet
ing of the command held last evening
Colonel Jones read the reply of the
president to the petition for reinstate-
ment, in which the same was denied.
The adjournment was sine die.
The disbandment of d is the begin
ming of a policy of reducing the mill
tary forces to one battalion of four
companies. 1t has been generally felt
in the community since annexation
that the force is twice as great as it
might be.

MINING EXPERTS OPINION

The force Of the following comment
by Aiming publication on the methods
Of the average mining expert. is about
right. as the experience of many an
old prospector has proven, but IT works
both ways. Expert opinions have
poured vast amounts Of money into
worthless sections. and on the other
hand have retarded the development
of many a good district. The thing
evens up somewhat, except that in the
first instance the money is a total loss,
while in the latter the holding back is
temporary. and where merits exists
lasts only until the hackers Of the dis
trict disprove the experts opinion by
opening up claims and showing the
values right there. The article says:
1T is inexplicable why the opinion
of the professional mining expert
should be implicitly relied upon by so
many apparently intelligent men. He
goes into a camp Of which he is entire
ly ignorant-knows nothing Of its for
nation and Theological pecullarities.

damn or praise the mine he is employ

In ninety-nine instances in a hundred
subsequens developments prove him to
be wrong. We contend hat nobody
can 60 through a mine as If a con
stable were after him and know any
thing about 1t. Study Of the ground
and the peculiarities Of the localities is
necessary. No two mining belts in
the world are identical in their charac-
teristics, yet experts seem to judge
from one standpoint s
