LEAF TOBACCO MEN

DON'T WANT FREE TRADE Be
TWEEN UNITED STATES AND
ISLAND POSSESSIONS

NEW YORK, May 1.-The third an
nual convention of the National Cigar
Leaf Tobacco association was continued
tins afternoon John r Young Of Phila-
1elrhia. iresided. The secretary, Walter
q. Wilson, of Philadelphia, read the re-
port of the committee on resolutions
ono resolution pres ented. prepared at
the association. was credibIy informed
that that the manufa cturerS in various
parts of the country, and notably III Gin
cinnat were doing a leaf-tobaccO bCs-
mess without having paid the special tax
OF dealers in leaf tobacco, that they
avoided this tax by taking refuge under
the section Of the law which permits
manufacturers to sell to other manufact-
urers such leaf tobacco as may be un-
suitable for their own use.
The resolution taken up cealt with
the method of calculating the weight Of
imported tobacco in assessing duties At
present the dock weight is taken, ami
this is usually much greater than the
weight taken after the tobacco has been
in the warehouse for some time.
Another resolution passed directs the
executive committee 20 keep a repre-
sentative as heretofore at Washington.
Still another resolution was passed,
hewever, directing that no effort be made
at present to secure the amendment of
the tobacco schedule in the tariff, except
so as to secure a uniform rate as TO
leaf tobacco.
The real Importance of this last men
toned resolution does not appear, it is
said, to the lay mind merely in it's text.
1t does not contain the slightest reference
to Cuba, and yet its real purpose, it was
said today, was to commit the associa-
tion to oppose any legislation looking
towards reciprocity arrangements with
Cuba by which Cuban tobacco could
come into the United States free Of duty
or at lower rate. This was not men
toned in the debate which was very
brief, but members who were ask d
about the matter admitted that the reso-
luton was inimical to reciprocity ar
rangements, (which should cover tobac-
co coming from Cuba or any other coun-
try" as one member expressed it.
One resolution providing that when a
salesman leaves one employer who is a
member Of the association, he shall not
be employed by another as long as he
might be indebted to his former employ
er This resolution was defeated by
large majority.
The association decided to hold it's
convention in Cincinnar1 next year.

there was not the slightest charge

Baron Won Richthoffen, the foreign

awarded by the commission now sitting

N. p. PREFERRED STOCK
RumOr Revived That 1t Will Be Re-
tired Next Year.


NEW YORK, May Tt is announced
or good authority that the $75,O0J,OOO 4
per cent preferred stock of the Northern
Pacific railroad is to be retired at 10 in
3 per cent bonds thus leaving the COM
mon stock free to enjoy all of the net
receipts. Persons close to the manage
ment declare that the company can cas-
lily pay per cent on the common stock,
and that it will do so under it's close
working arrangement with the BurIing-
ton and Great Northern railroads. The
Northern Pacific has the right to retire
the preferred stock at $1OO a share, but
1t would be impracticable to make a
cash transaction of it, and it is calculat-
ed that the offer of 31h Per cent bonds at
ITO will prove attractive to shareholders.
and that the transaction will go through
without hitch when the time comes
that 1t can be legally done.
Th1s plan was outlined several months
ago, and it was foreknowledge of this
that led some to predict that Northern
Pacific common would go to $125 a share
Inat prediction was more than realized
yesterday, and the preferred shares also
enjoyed good rise on the notion that
a Sh per cent bond will sell close to
par, making the present preferred stock
worth perhaps los or LOG.
Besides the saving of nearly one-half
OF per cent on the bonds to be issue
in exchange for the preferred stock, off,
cials of the Northern Pacific expect to
save from 1 to 2 per cent additional by
the operation of the Burlington, thereby
yielding net earnings for Northern Pa
ciflc of or per cent even in dulIer
times than the present

STATUS OF CUBA.
HAVANA CONVENTION WILL ACCEPT
PLATT AMENDMENT.

HAVANA, May 1.-THE special commits
sion of the Cuban constitutional conven-
ton, which returned here from Washing
ton May 5, at the secret session Of the
convention today presented an extensive
report of their conference with President
Mckinley and Secretary koOt and a
glowing account of the banquets and re-
ceptions rendered them.
Senor Giberga objected to Incorporating
an account of the social programme in
the report, but the commission insisted
upon this section.
Referring to the third clause of the
Placc amendment the report stated that
the United States would not intervene
unless Cuba was attacked by foreign
power, or unless there existed in Cuba
a condition of affairs similar to that
which existed under Spain at the time of
the American Intervention.
Regarding coal stations, the report set
forth that the places so desired by the
United States were Capes Maysi and San
Antonio, and another point commanding
the entrance to the Gulf Of Mexico.
These would be definitely determined
upon when drawing up the treaty, and
that the object of these stations would be
the maintenance of the independence Of
Cuba, as well as the protection OF the
United States. The report also said that
the United States would not interfere in
the local government and that President
Mckinley had promised to appoint a
commission to meet a commission from
Cuba to settle the economic question and
to draw UP a commercial treaty as soon
as the republic is established, and that
he advised the Cubans in the meantime
to study the situation in this respect
The representatives announced that
Secretary Root had said that there was
nothing in the Platt amendment to pre-
vent Cuba having diplomatic representa-
tiVes in foreign countries. The report
has evidently made good impression,
and only few Radicals will continue 10
oppose its acceptance.
The convention will meet Thursday. and
is expected to take definite action Satur-
day.
