NEWS OF THE STATE
Tomato Trust Formed.

Led by the farmers of Cumberland
County, the tomato growers of South
Jersey have started in on trust Of
their own to oppose the Gamers next
season. 1t is brought about by the
very small figures the farmers secured
for their crop of last year and the very
large figures which the Gamers are
getting for the canned goods. The or
ganization was started by the Cum
berland County farmers, who nave
held their first meeting in Bridgeton
Forty farmers were present, and Bur-
lington, Salem and Cape May counties
were represented. For two hours the
tomato subject was discussed, ana
there was not a farmer present who
was willing to accept next year the S6-
per-ton price paid last year, nor yet
the reported 81 per ton that some OF
them had heard the Gamers We're Will
ing to contract for next years crop.
Finally it was unanimously decided to
demand So per ton In the new con.
tracts. and every man pledged himself
not to accept less. 1t was declared by
more than one speaker that II tney
could not get $S per ton they should
unite in not raising tomatoes at all Tor
this season, but turn their attention to
rorn. This sentiment was roundly ap-
plauded. 1t was also unanimously de-
rided TO organize every tomato-grow-
ing county, and representative farmers
are now at work in those counties Sc
curing the Endorsement of the growers.

Sheriff, $50 just took him by the back

spanked him good. and that ended
the trouble Bonifiglio was sentenced
to be hanged on December 5 at Mays
Landing, but when the case was ap-
pealed the Governor granted a re-
prieve until January 2, 1902. The
granting of a new trial nullifies this.

POTATOES BEING IMPORTED.
Price, Including Freight and Tax, Far
Below Cost of Home Product.


Price, Including Freight and Tax, Far
Below Cost of Home Product.
New York City.-For the first time
in seven years New Workers are eat
ing imported potatoes. The Red Star
Line steamship Southwark, which has
arrived with consignment OF 10000
bushels of Belgium potatoes, will be
followed by a Rotterdam ship and a
Glasgow ship. both potato laden.
The explanation of the importation
is simply that potatoes have reached
q price at which 1t is more profitable
to import them than to purchase them
from home growers. Time was when
this farinaceous vegetable could be
bought at sixty cents barrel. To-day
they command from $3.50 to $2.40 n
barrel
When this price is reached the pur-
chasing agent of the American i'm
porter buys potatoes in Belgium,
France or Scotland at seventyfive
cents barrel. The duty on potatoes
being twenty-five cents per bushel OF
sixty pounds, the importer is taxed
another seventy-five cents for his bar
rel. Another twenty-five cents for
freight brings the cost of potatoes up
to $1.75 barrel on the pier at New
York City.
The fact that the grower in Michi-
gan, Maine and New York demands
more than this ON the ground is induce
ment enough for the importer to run
the double risk of slump in the
market OF of his potatoes spelling on
the way.

Revolt of the Liberal Colon
bian Rebels.
UNEAsINEss AT PANAMA

Distinguishing Feature of the Revo-
luton Is the Actual Support the Lib
erals Are Receiving From Venezue-
la, Ecuador and Nicaragua.
Colon, Colombia, Aug. %, via KINGS
TON, Jamaica, Aug. 26. 6.-The censorship
here prevents the transmission of politi-
cal news or news unfavorable to the
government.
The revolt of the Liberal Colon mbian
rebels, now two years old, lately as
sumed a more serious aspect by the
Liberals concentrations on the isthmus.
1t is believed they are contemplating
aggressive action.
Consequently uneasiness prevails at
Panama, the Liberal objective, which
was nearly captured a year ago. 1t is
not believed the rebels will molest the
railroad, or interrupt traffic The re-
cent rebel raids along the railroad
amounted to bloodless raiding and the
robbery of Chinese stOrekeepers, which
the presence of a few government troops
apparently stopped. There is a report
that the government is bringing troops
to protect the isUhmus. This will be
difficult, without exposing to rebel at
tacks the points whence they are taken.
The area Of the revolt is extensive.
A nOticeably distinguishing feature
of the revolution is the actual support
the Liberals are receiving from Vene-
zuela, Ecuador and Nicaragua in which
countries liberal governments prevail.
ColOmbia's Conservative government is
popular with the governments Of the
countries mentioned; but is popular
with the revolutionary elements in the
same countries. The situation can be
hkened to disrupted federation, COM
posed of Venezuela, Ecuador, Colombia
and Nicaragua, in which Liberal and
Conservative partisans are helping each
other and intriguing together, But,
being separate nations, the political and
armed lntrigues threaten international
trouble.
1t is reported that the Conservative
revolt in Venezuela against President
Castro is receiving actual support from
the Colombian Conservatives. Nicara-
gua's threatened revolution will prOba-
bly, be similarly aided on the occasion
arising. The conditions give ground
for the reports of actual or threatened
international complications between
the countries mentioned, in which the
Liberals are generally opposed to Co.
lOmbia's Conservative administration,
whose prophesied downfall is accompa-
MED by talk of a federation under the
idea of a Grand Colombia,
Colombian government is in straits,
financially, at present.
