TOBACCO PAPERS FORCED OUT

England Saturday-Other
Tobacco Items.
The Hayden cigarette machine. which
is manufactured by a company of which
afr. L. L. Strause. of this city, is the
Itpresident, has recently been perfected
! and brought UP to a high pitch OF eN-
: jellence. The machine was invented by
AIr. Hayden. Of this city. and the COM
pany has been in existence for several
years; but it has only been during the
past month or two that the apparatus
has been perfected.
In its perfected form the machine
makes all sizes of pasted paper cigar
i cites, with granulated filler, tucking
. beth ends at the same time, which has
for so long time been desired both here
and abroad. particularly in Spain. The
machine should find use in catarrh ci-
sarettes and similar paper-wrapped
, smokers. AT first it made only unpasted
cigarettes, but now it may be either, as
the desire may be.
!: It is a curious and significant fact that
two well-known tobacco papers have re-
Gently been forced out OF existence
The Danyille Tobacco Journal has just
discontinued publication. the publishers
stating in their final issue that the step
was taken because of 1.-The extreme I'M
satisfactory condition now existing in
the tobacco world The Weed, of Louis
willie, KY. another popular trade paper,
preceded the Journal by a short time.
The coincidence is significant OF the
now frequent upheavals in the tobacco
world Commenting upon the situation
md referring to the two papers, tho
Winston Tobacco journal says this week:
..They found the business unprohtabie
notwithstanding they were issued from
the two largest leaf markets IN the word
and from cities with manufacturing pres
stge. There have been in years gone si1rl-
TAR failures at minor points In the SOUTH
Experience teaches that it takes some
rhinr more than a leaf market to sus-
Z tain a tobacco Notwithstanding more
Khan factory interests as Well. win the
drst alone success is q dream of the I'M
Uniformed, and with both together, as
matters now stand, it is doubtful.
Mr.. Wexford c. Reed, one of the rep
here of the Imperial Tooac-
t,co Company. and Mr.. Mcdonald, local
tsdirector in that company. Will leave sat
surday on the Cunard Line steamer Tor
england When seen yesterday MI Reed
declined to talk about his trip, more .hah
to say that it would be strictly busl-
sxs,ess affair. They will be gone for some
sSittle while.
! whether the visiting directors Of the
SsHmperiai, Messrs. Gum, Player and
tsf.larke. will accompany Mr.. Reed ana
aadr. Mcdonald cannot be said. These
rent,emen gave UP their rooms Sunday at
lV a r
q rival OF the Ogden party and presumably
q went out Of town. 1t is stated that Mr..
"a T. Thomas. who is associated with
AsMr. Reed in the office Of the Imperial
Eshere was also out OF town and thai they
ssxyent together. Mr.. Thomas was expect
= ed back yesterday.
4 Mr.. NJ. Ratclin Irby. who has long
kbeen in charge Of tho New Orleans
t!Rahranch OF the American Tobacco Com
u soany, is about to retire from active man
1spgement. He will be succeeded by MI.
ttGeorge A. Watson, OF Virginia, man
Y who is Of wide acquaintance IN the to-
Iebacco business and who has been assoc
I; .ciated with the AmeNcan Tobacco Com
Apany for number Of years.
The Southern Tobacconist comes out
j. this week with a lengthy editorial de-
claring that 1t does not believe that the
Imperial will undertake to manufacture
or this side for some time, If at ALL. 1t
suggests that if the rumors concerning
the Universal mean anything. they mean
simply that the Imperial will use the
Universal to make its brands. by which
business could begin at once in the es-
teblished Universal factories.
The poor quality OF the tobacco sold on
> 4he rxchanre Yesterday held down prices
somewhat and made it look for a time as
though sln-cured would take tumble.
= 1t appears. however. that the lower ng-
:. ,,re was due wholly to the Indifferent To-
,,acco, and that prices will be up again
,o-aay or tomorrow. Dickinson & Shell
b,lrne sold sixty-three packages yester-
day, the highes. price being ss4.5o. Store
wal. Warehouse George A. Haynes, pro-
& nrietcr sold three packages at fair prices.
