THE CROP WILL BE SHORT
Unfavorabe News Received as to Con-
dition of Tobacco.

uitlOll VI j CDdCCO'
According to accounts given by farm
crs in Ae city yesterday the tobacco crop
is in an extremely bad way. and is suf-
fering greatly for want of rain. wide
spread drought is burning up everything
already in the ground and rendering it
impossible to make any Roadway in
planting.
The condition in Louisa county, which
is tributary to the Richmond market. was
graphically told yesterday morning by MY.
R. P. Holland, a well-known planter of
the district. who is now in the city. Mr..
Holland lives in what is known as the
Roundabout neighborhood of Louisa. All
in that section. he declares. certainly
not more than one-haf OF the new crop
has been planted and that one-half is
seeing hard time of it. Besieged by cut

upon the tobacco crop, a"e gloomy IN the
extreme II rain doesn't come quick and
in large quantity it VII be all up with
them There is an old saying among
tobacco men, said Mr.. Holland. that
if they can get stand by June 10th they
are all right. But June 10th is gone and
there is still no crop planted
Sun-cured tobacco, now in such de-
mand here, is raised in Louisa. The
sun-cured belt covers also to Hanover
Caroline. Fluvanna and some others,
and the drought extends all alons
there and in the neightorhod of Lynch
burg and Danville as well. what IS
true of tobacco is true aiso IN many
cases, Of vegetables.
The conditions in the bright sections
OF the State are a little better because
OF the fact that bright tobacco is plant
ed earlier in the year than dark. Mr.. b
Retts, a prominent planter OF Smiths
Cross Roads, Meclllenburs county. was in
the city yesterday and says that so far S
dark tobacco is concerned the drought is
as bad in his section as it is in Louisa
Even in bottom lands farmers have to
carry water in buckets from streams
and branches to put upon their plants.
Such an occurrence is extremely I'M
usual A good deal of bright tobacco is
raised in Mecklenburg. and while that
is suffering, too. 1t is. for the reason
stated above in a somewhat better
shape; Cut worms and bugs are doing
considerable damage here. too.
From all that can be learned from
North Carolina, that State is in the grip
OF the drought. too. This is another blow,
for the Old North State sends lot of
tobacco here Meanwhile tobacconists OF
Richmond are keenly awaiting further
news Many of them expressed them
selves gloomily this morning. and were
inclined to take a view by no means
cheerful. Unless weather conditions
changed at once. they saw no possible
show of relief

The papers were served upon Will

ton of legal representative of several
of these concerns. The action is in
line with the contentious of ATTORNEY
Herman w. Chaplin, who has ad
vance the theory that the pubIc's
rights must be respected.
The basis of Mr.. Chaplin's argu
ment is founded on the utterance &C

States supreme court, in delivering

stituticnality CT certain laws made By

sation to be received for the handling

companies in Chicago.
Property becomes clothed with a
public interest when used in a man
ner to make it Of public consequence
and affect the community at large
When, therefore. one devotes his
property to a use in which the public
has an interest he, in effect, grants
to the public an interest in that use,
and must submit to be controlled by
the public for the common good, to
the extent of the interest he has thus
created"
This finding is based on the prin-
ciples of common law, it is alleged,
which have come down to us, not only
from our American predecessors, but
also from immemorial usage in the
English courts.

and his men into q musical frenzy that is

inclusive.
Creatore, is wonder, a very musical,
whirlwind and cyclone, absolutely the
most startling personality the band world
has any record of. He conducts band of
fifty players, and produces effects so sensa-
tional, and climaxes of such volcanic
power that the listener is electrified, in
voluntarily clutches his seat, and simply is
forced to sit up" AT first hearing one
is inclined TO ridicule and belittle
Creatore's violent mannerisms, but little by
little the terrific earnestness and superior
musicianship of the man assert themselves,
the scoffer of moment before becomes the
most devoted of admirers and hangs
breathlessly upon every move of the man
who is hypnotizing his players into
breathing" the music into which he is
throwing the vigor and temperament of a
dozen men.
The New Exposition management has
not accepted Creatore upon heresay, but
has had its own representatives hear and
see him under varying conditions, and for
that reason asserts with confidence that he
will take his audience absolutely by storm.
Suburbanites will regret it all their
lives if they fail TO hear this marvellous
man and his band, not once only, but re-
peatedly. For their convenience all rail-
roads leading into Pittsburg have made
preparations 10 handle with ease enormous
crowds Of excursionists al the one-fare rate.
While the New Exposition music is its
great attraction, the high excellence of the
DISPLAYS and special features must not be
overlooked. OF exhibitors there are forty-
