A number of sales of the new crop
have been reported during the week and
a few 1900 crops have also been picked
up. The American Tobacco Co. have
commenced emptying their warehouse
here and also the one at Fulton of their
1900 packing. The tobacco is being
shipped to Richmond, Va, and there will
be 140 car loads of it altogether, 60 car
loads from Baldwinsville and so from
Fulton. E. G. Munroe has purchased

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET,
EDGERToN, WIS.,. Nov. s, 1901.

EDGERTON, WIS.,, Nov. 8, 1901.
Probably at no season of the year has
there been such dearth of news in the
local market as at the present time, and
transaction in any class of goods is
hard to find. AS regards the new crop
the buyers seem wholly undisposed to
buy any portion oft at present, although
a few weeks hence may materially
change the phase of matters.
The recent hard freeze had it's effect
upon the hanging tobacco, and the un-
cured will undoubtedly show few fat
stems from this cause. The general
opinion is, however, that a large per
cent of the leaf was far enough advanc-
ed in the curing stages that some bene-
fit from the cold snap may be derived
The sale of five thousand lot from
the Vernon county packings of the BAN
berger firm is reported. George RumriIl
of GAINESVILLE has purchased portion OF
the Merrill packing.
Shipments out of storage reach total
of 13 car loads, $50 cases, from this mar
ket to all points during the week. Since
last report 721 cases of cigar leaf were
exported from New York.

LANc AsTER New ERA Oct. %, 1901.
The market developed no new features
during the week, but things kept Jogging
along in the usual way, everybody hop
ing something new or interesting would
turn up. The only thing of note, how
ever, was the big sale of tobacco in Phil
adelphia at the latter end of the week.
Our packers were represented in liberal
numbers, some as disinterested and 9TH
ers as very much interested spectators.
The prices were very good and some of
our dealers say they would like to dis
pose of their own holdings at the same
rates. A very little was purchased by
our own dealers. The sales of tobacco
in the home market during the week, as
reported to US, were as follows: M. M.
Fry sold 289cs; G.. Ell. Welchans q Co.
sold 5OOcs; B. M. Mowery & Co. sold 105
cs and bought 44cs; Jacob Mayer sold
15Ocs, and Isaac FL. Weaver sold 375cs.
For the corresponding week of last year
1192cs were sold.
A correspondent of the Philadelphia
Press under date of October rs, sends
more than column long article to that
paper from this city, which contains the
following very interesting bit of news:
"The tobacco crop of 1901 IN Lancaster
county has all been sold." That will
make the four or five thousand growers
of the county open their eyes in surprise.
The fact is that out of the $4,000 or more
cases grown in the county, this year, 500
cases or less have been sold. The entire
article is made Up of statements that
have been published a hundred times
without single new idea or fact in it,
evidently by one wholly unacquainted
with the subject he has attempted to
discuss. There has been no recent
movement in new tobacco, every one
holding off, but there are speculations in
abundance as to what will probably &C

NEW YORK, Oct. 80, 1901.

Generally speaking only fair busi-
ness has been done in domestic leaf cir
cles during the past week. There seems
to have been something of furry in
1900 Wisconsin, however, and something
over 1900 boxes changed hands. They
sold in lots of from 100 to 800 cases and
brought all the way from 15 to Is cents,
according to quality and assortment.
Apparently the Wisconsin epidemic
spread to the old tobacco as well, for a
lot of 1880 cases of the 1899 crop was sold
to large New York jobbing house at
from 13 to 131 cents.
Considerable interest is manifested in
the new Pennsylvania but as these goods
do not show to advantage at the present
time, owing to the lateness of the cure,
packers are reluctant to exhibit samples.
In fact, many of the packings have not
yet passed through the samplers hands.
Sumatra.-A canvass of the Sumatra
market this week elicits conflicting news.
Some importers complain of poor busi-
ness, while others report very satisfac-
tory weeks trading. However, data at
hand shows that at least 600 bales have
been sold, of which, $50 went to local
manufacturers. The fancy tobaccos
have already been we'll thinned out by
appreciative buyers, and from the pres
ent outlook no good or even medium
grade tobaccos will 60 a-begging. Strict
ly light goods at ordinary prices are now
out of the question until the next crop
is marketed.
Havana.-A slight improvement was
noticeable in this market this week, and
few fair-sized sales were put through.
Tho inn1irv for factory vegas and all
wrapper grades is growing stronger, but
importers find this demand difficult to
supply.-Leaf.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2, 1901

NEW YORK, Nov. 2, 1901.
It was Wisconsins turn in the leaf
market the past week. Not less, and
probably much more, than ten thousand
boxes of 1900 Wisconsin moved into con-
SUMPTION from packers hands, and they
were sold in blocks of from one to three
thousand cases, and they were bought,
with the single exception of a thousand
cases, by manufacturers. A Philadelphia
house that stands IN the front rank of
Wisconsin packers sold over five thous-
and boxes to manufacturers, and New
York house sold three thousand boxes to
a manufacturer; one thousand boxes
were sold to jobber, and the balance
went off in smaller lots. The prices nat
urally varied. But it can safely be stated
that the bulk was sold above 16c. If
manufacturers are commencing to buy
binder leaf in such huge blocks at such
by, viz: u The prospective scarcity of
binder leaf; ~ the hopelessness of wait
ing for fall in prices, and 81 that not
all manufacturers are being scared out
of business. If there is one thing GER
is concerned, it is veritable famine in
back now in supplying themselves for
the needs of two years will not only have
to pay three and four and probably five
cents more for Wisconsin few months
hence, but it will be positively impossi-
BILE for them to get any at all at any
price.
The Sumatra market is in good, act
i've condition. The sales, while not large
in every instance, are steady, and, what
is more to the point, they pass into i'm
mediate consumption instead of being
boarded in bond. This is the healthiest
sign of the market.-Journal.
