DANvILLE's TOBACCO MARKET
Decrease in the Sales, But BETTER
Prices for Planters.

Decrease in the Sales. But Better
Prices for Planters.
Danville, Va. June 3.-The records show
that for the first eight months of the to-
bacco year, ended May 81, the receipts and
sales of leaf tobacco on this market, as
compared with the same period OF the last
tobacco year. have fallen of 2,26S,541
pounds. Those in position to form a cor
rect estimate predict a continued decrease
in receipts for the next four months that
will make the decrease for the tobacco
year ending September 80 fully 5000 900
pounds, as compared with last tobacco
year.
Last year the market sold within a frac-
tion of 10000, 900 pounds. The sales for
the first eight months of the present year
we're IS, ,22s,067 pounds. which shows a de-
crease as compared with same period of
last tobacco year of 2.2s8.541 pounds. 1t
is claimed that at least 50 per cent OF the
crop of '9S has been marketed, and not
more than five to seven and a half mil
lion pounds remain in the hands of the
farmers in the territory contiguous to
Danvilie. to be marketed.
The farmer. however, has not lost by the
short crop of 'sS, for while ii was not near
so large as the crop of the previous year
the tobacco has brought better prices and
in the aggregate, SO far, has brought
equally as much, perhaps a little more, in
dollars and cents than the big crop of
1897.
Reports from all over the BELT" agree
that a very large crop has been planted
and barring the lateness. it was put out
under very favorable conditions.

CITY RAILROAD AFFAIRS.
Closing Up the Metropolitan and CO.

lumbia Purchase.
The Washington representatives of the
Stevens-Crosby Lieb syndicate have been
in New York for several days on business
of the syndicate. The returned yesterday.
1t is understood that they have been max
ing the final arrangements for the closing
up of the purchase of the Metropolitan and
Columbia railways. and the Incorporation
OF the holding company which is to con-
troll the affairs OF the railroads.
The sum still due on the various pur-
neighborhood of s4,000.000. This entire
amount. or very large part of 1t. will go
into the hands of local people. There has
been much enquiry during the past week
as to the exact date when the payment is
to be made and the rumor has been cir
culated that the cash will be turned over
within few days. One statement made
yesterday by real estate man was that
the entire final payment is likely to be
made at one time by the syndicate without
waiting for the full time allowed by the
contracts Business men are of the opin-
ion that local affairs viii receive a decided
stimulus when the cash is received II is
expected that nearly all of the money will
be reinvested in local securities and real
estate. and IL is known that several large
real estate deals will be closed as soon as
the cash is ON hand.
The status of the holding company"
with regard TO the railroad and other COM
panies purchased by the syndicate is
matter of much comment. AS stated here
tofore in The Times, 1t is generally under
stood on semi-offeial authority that this
holding company will be incorporated
within few days. No statement has been
made as yet by the syndicate as to the
amount of securities to be issued by the
new company. or the exact value of the
old stocks and bonds that the new issue
will represent.
A broker who is somewhat familiar with
the affairs of the syndicate, as a semi
insider, made the statement to reporter
for The Times yesterday that the old Sc
curities purchased amount to about S15,-
000,000 In the aggregate He stated it AS
his opinion that the expenses incurred by
the syndicate up to the present time would
equal SO much more that il would realize
only fair profit on its deal IL It disposes
of the bonds of the holding company for
$50 000, 900. One story that has received
general credence is that there will be an
issue Of $50. .000,0 600 in bonds and $l0,000.0 900
in stock. It is thought that part of the
stock may be given to the purchasers of
the bonds as a bonus. Another theory is
that the bonds may be sold and the stock
held by the syndicate.

Rouen. France. June 3.-The beautiful
mand of Captain Matthews. formerly mas
ter of the late Baron Ferdinand de Roth

Thursday night from Amsterdam, via Hav-
re, having on board the owner, Sir Thomas
Upton, and party of friends. She is the
largest British steam yacht afioat and one
OF the finest She is most luxuriously fitted

besides several colored stewards. whom Sir
Thomas brought from Ceylon.
Cingalese are very rarely seen in Eng
land or on the Continent, and they excite
great curiosity by their novel appearance,
dress, and the peculiar manner in which
they arrange their long black hair. Hun
dreds OF people continually crowded the
quay to see the Erin, which is certainly
the largest and most luxuriously appointed
yacht that ever visited Rouen.
Sir Thomas expects to leave this morn
ing for Cherbourg, and then probably
cross the Channel to the south coast of
England. He is now making sort of
trial trip.
Sir Thomas, who is a most thorough
type of the gentleman sportsman, has al
ready expressed in a genial manner his
conviction and perfect satisfaction that
the best boat will win the Americas cup
.tn he ,.,iI1 friend <
and the most loyal of opponents.
On being asked wnen the launch Of the
Shamrock would take place. he stated
that 1t would be about the end OF this
month but he did not mention the date
He is, however. satisfied il will be launch
ed in plenty of time to obtain all the trials
he desires, and added that Fife is thor
oughly satisfied with the manner in which
the work is progressing, everything in con-
nection with the Shamrock having come
up to expectations.
When she is completed he will first take
her around the Solent then to the Ban
gor regattas and afterward to the Clyde.
According to the present arrangements she
is expected TO leave Ireland for the United
States about the end of July, which will
give her rather more than a months prac
tice before the races begin.
1t is Sir Thomas intention TO accompa-
ny the Shamrock to America in the Erin.
Doubtless some guests OF high rank will be
on board. This visit Sir Thomas is look
ing forward to with pleasure and interest.
He expressed the hope that the friendly
contest In which he is about to enter will
assist in some degree in cementing that
union of sentiment and aspirations between
the two nations which is SO desirable and
be fruitful of the greatest benefits TO hu-
manity at large.
