Connecticut Valley.

There is but little doing in the valley at
present in the way of selling of the to-
bacco. Occasionally we hear of sale,
but generally the price is not given. So
it is really of no particular value, SO far
as such information goes. The Porto
Rican tobacco finds it's way direct, in
stead of through Cuba, as of yore. 1t is
put up in the same way. The duty is
now SIC on a pound of filters, as theig-
crop is largely filters, while the few wrap
pers have to pay tax of Is per cent,
$1.85. A convention of leaf tobacco
dealers met at Chicago May 7 to devise
some action regarding tariff on tobacco
imported from the Philippines and to-
secefe lower duties on Cuban tobacco.
and other matters. So we can fully un-
derstand how the wind will blow by and
by.
The weather has been SO cold that
plant beds not protected by either glass
or cloth can make little or no growth,
The protected beds are being weeded;
and when we'll cared for their owners are
swapping stories as to their size. Many of
the hills have looked white with snow.
Farmers are exceedingly busy preparing
the land for the crop. Our correspon-
dents is mostly relative to the back
wardness of the spring, and of the crowd
ing of the needful work into a short
space of time, and not sale is men
tioned.-Cultivator

New York.
New YORK May 9, 1900.

The domestic leaf market continues to
show decided lack of animation. Buy
ers are scarce, and the bulk of the bust
ness done is the result of hard work on
the part of travelling statesmen. The dull
period has lasted much longer than was
at first anticipated, and complaints of
poor business are numerous. Although
no great activity can be expected until
the season is further along, it is quite
likely that the condition will be consid-
erably improved before the summer sets
in.
Sumatra-The desire on the part of
jobbers and manufacturers to take hold
of the new Sumatra becomes more ap-
parent with each passing week. AS more
tobacco arrives in port and is sampled
and shown, the interest in it increases,
and the indications are that the first few
shipments will pass readily out of first
hands. Sales of new tobacco reported
for the week amount to about 300 bales.
Havana-The past week has been
rather quiet one in Havana leaf. How
ever, importers are not worrying, and
some of the larger holders are, in trade
parlance, sitting on their tobacco. Owing
to reduced stocks, little effect is being
made to sell to outside trade, and many
importers are practically doing nothing
but waiting for the buying of the new
crop to begin. Predictions of high prices
for the 1900 crop are being mere freely
made.-Leaf

Wisconsin again scored an inning this
week in the market The same Pearl
street packing house that sold the pre-
vious week thousand boxes of Wiscon-
sin to an uptown concern disposed of 600
cases more to another packing house
downtown. The fact of this purchase
proves that faith is being pinned to an
advance of the '99 Wisconsin. AS for
the other types of domestic leaf, several
hundred cases of force -sweated New Eng
land leaf were disposed of, and some
small lots of filler stock, but an extensive
business in seed leaf cannot be done, be-
cause there is no stock left to do it with
Of the new Sumatra about $50 bales
changed hands. 1t is still, however, in
probationary state, but there is not the
least doubt that if only the factories
take hold of it, it will go faster than al
most any other previous crop did. For
it is agreed on all hands that there never
was crop of greater yielding capacity
brought into this market. The result Of
the inscription on Wednesday last con-
firms the prediction made by the cable
gram published last week in this place.
The offerings of suitable foreign marks
are evidently falling off, For of nearly
$4,000 bales only about 1900 bales were
taken by American purchasers, the
smallest quantities secured at any of the
inscriptions this year. OF the two
American houses that have so far been
the largest buyers at every inscription,
the one did not buy bale and the other

A little trading is still being carried
on in the '99 crop though but few deal
ers are interested in the movement.
Goods remaining in the baEdle are being
lifted at moderate prices as grow

Geo. Rumrill purchased 33cs of '97 and
'9S of A. Fadness and 27cs of '97 of Mar
tin Keegan and sold 15Ocs of old leaf

purchased something over 1OOcs of '90
from growers in this vicinity.
A few warehouses are yet handling
bundle leaf and several others are trans
ferring their work to tips and shorts.
The plant beds are making good prog

of an abundance of plants for early

MCCLUREs MAGAZINE for May gives an
intimate, vivid presentment of General
Lawton as man and a soldier, with
special reference to his Philippine cam
paign, in an article by his close associ-
ate in the Philippines, Professor Dean
G. Worcester. The article is illustrated
with a series of portraits of Lawton,
showing him at different ages from
seventeen to fifty-five, and with other
pictures. An article by Professor Simon
Newcomb tells all about the time and
course of the total eclipse of the sun
which is to occur on May 28th, and also
what astronomers have previously learned
by such eclipses and what they hope to
learn by this one. A profusely illustrat-
ed article by Earl Mayo describes the
great Atlantic liner Oceanic" in her un-
equaled magnitude of ten thousand tons
weight and seventh of mile of length,
telling how she was built and how she is
now manned and operated. There are

NOTE BOOK SKETCHES,

The writer of this columo was prlvl-
legged to attend the second annual con-
vention of the Cigar Leaf Board of Trade
of the u S. at Chicago last week and
participate in the hospitalities which the
Chicago leaf dealers had prepared for
the occasion. Representatives from the
leaf centers were present and partici-
pated in matters of trade Importance
which came up for consideration. The
address of Pres. Young of Philadelphia,
reviewed the work of the association for
the past year, recounting the success of
the legislative committee in securing
reversal of an obnoxious warehouse rul-
ing from the Internal Revenue Depart
ment as we'll as other matters which the
leaf trade are vitally interested in. The
convention acknowledged it's willingness
to cooperate with the cigar manufac-
turers' association. 1t decided not to
press at present any changes in tariff
legislation, while year ago it went on
record in favor of uniform rate of duty
on all leaf tobacco. It also went on
record as favoring a bill before congress
creating department of industry and
commerce. 1t was resolved that the
convention take no action on the ques-
tion of inspection and sampling. The
only contention in the convention arose
over the defining of the meaning of the
constitution regarding representation in
future conventions. A spirited but
friendly discussion came out on this
point involving sharp parliamentary ma
nouvers but in the end Chicago was out
voted. Mr.. John R. Young, of Phiia~
delphia, was reelected president as
fitting recognition of past services; JOS
Cullmans, of New York, vice president;
W. G. Wilson, of Philadelphia, secre-
tary, aud Geo. J. Schuster, of Milwaukee,
treasurer. New York was selected the
next place of meeting i'm May 1901.
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1900-05-18

The success of such a convention sug-
gests the question if it would not be a
good idea for the leaf dealers of Wiscon-
sin to organize and send it's representa-
tives to future meetings. 1t has been
we'll said that the chief benefit of the
convention lies in the fact that it brings
the representatives of the different trade
centers closer together, that it harmo-
nizes their interests and gets them used to
working as a unite. 1t certainly does
missionary work, which is bound to
spread, to affect, and to bring into the
organization every member of the trade,
from the smallest to the largest. These
are certainly desirable things for the
Leaf dealers, and it seems to the writer,
the local leaf men ought to get together
Already movement is on foot at James
vile for such an organization. Let every
one interested in the 'leaf trade en-
courage it. Make the organization to
include leaf dealers and representatives
of eastern firms in the whole state.
Some practical good We are certain will
come out of such an association besides
foster fraternal spirit that ought to be
cultivated and extended.

The social features of the convention
were in charge of the Chicago Leaf To
bacco Merchants Association which
fully maintained a reputation for being
royal entertainers Tuesday morning the
delegates and their friends were taken
for 80 mile steamer ride down the
drainage canal to Lockport. Nothing
was left undone to make the excursion a
pleasant and memorable one. On We'd
nesday tally-ho ride was taken to the
stock yards and other places of interest.
The festivities closed with banquet
rendered the delegates by their Chicago
entertainers at the Wellington Wednes-
day evening which was considered to be
one of the most elaborate affairs ever
given in the city The menu cards were
an unique arrangement of tobacco in
spectors tickets and called for the best
the cuisine art affords. Several bril-
liant addresses followed in the program
of toasts, the whole closed by story tell
ing entertainers of no mean ability. The
hospitality of the Chicago Leaf Associa-
ton will be remembered with pleasure
by every delegate and visitor in attend
ance.
