New YORK, Feb. y, 1904.


A spell of dullness seems to have over
taken almost the entire trade of the
country. All our reports from the trade
centers as scattered through the col
umns of the u. S. Tobacco Journal agree
as they never did before as to the apa-
thetic condition of the trade and the
cause given confirms our own previous
statements, namely: the severity of an
unprecedented winter. The leaf market
is but reflection of the condition of our
cigar industry, which as pointed out in
these columns. underwent a severe
shrinkage from the same cause during
the month of January, a shrinkage
which will rather increase during the
present month from a continuance of
the same unpropitious weather condi
tions. Improvement, therefore, is hardly
to be expected before the weather mod
crates sufficiently to permit uninter-
rupted traffic and to stimulate smoking
in comfort. But what the fate of the
new crops will be it is too early to prog
nosticate So much, however, may be
safely assumed now that not much of it
will turn out in a healthy and perfect
condition, and that even with a decrease
in the output of the cigar industry the
supply will not be sufficient to meet the
demand. Therefore, even if the market
should remain inactive for some time,
there need be no apprehension that the
stock on hand will have to go begging.
An open spring season is sure to bring
on brisk revival. journal.

LANCASTER NEW ERA. Feb. %, 1904.

The conditions between the market of
last week and this week have undergone
no change. Dizziness still prevails, with
out any indications of a favorable
change. The small manufacturers must,
of course, have a certain amount of leaf
to keep a going, but even they seem to
be taking no mUre than enough to last
them between meals. as it were. While,
therefore, dealers confess to having sold
some goods, the sales, they say are too
small to report. The following are all
that have been brought to our notice:
B. f. Good & Co. sold S5cs and bought
80. For the corresponding week of last
year the sales were 375cs.
In the 1903 crop there is still consider
able buying, but this is confined for the
most part to the country dealers. The
city packers have been dipping in light
ly. While the prices, as we have quoted
them in these columns, seem rather
high, it should be born in mind that they
are quotations for choice goods, tops, the
best that are to be had. There are plenty
of goods that can be had as low as five
and six cents, but dealers think the
higher priced goods are the cheaper.
Those who are waiting for later period

VIRoQUA, Wis. Feb. 26. 1904.

There has been some activity in tobac-
co matters the past week. 1t is anything
but satisfactory to growers and buyers.
Thursday and Friday last the American
representatives received a number of the
many crops purchased in this territory
during the past weeks and months They
did some heavy docking" claiming that
no crop was free from shed burn and
much other damaged weed caused by
hail and wind whippings and the nu-
merous defects tobacco is subject to.
We are told that they cut from Is to IS
per cent. and some crops refused to ac-
cept at any price.
Local dealers say they find about the
same results in what few crops have
been received at the warehouses in this
city. The crops received on contracts
previously made are being run over the
tables and are to be paid for at contract
price, less damaged goods removed.
Eckhardts are working force of twenty
girls, occupying but one OF their ware
houses. They say it takes exceptional
care to put the weed in case In any kind
of shape. It is so light and brittle that
il must be handled with care.
A thing never before known here is
that farmers haul their tobacco to town
without having contracted, and it is tof-
fered on the market like wheat and corn
This places them at the mercy of the
dealers and is unsatisfactory.
On the whole we are confronted with
the most discouraging conditions that
Vernon county farmers have experienced
since they began to cultivate tobacco. 1t
has deadening effect on all kinds of
business and the town keenly feels the
result as we'll as do the farmers There
is very little if any riding being done by
buyers, either local or foreign, and the
feeling prevails that much of the crop
will of necessity be sorted and cased by
farmers at home. Censor.

The decision of the Hague Trit
that because England, German,
Italy sought to compel Venezuela t.
them what she owed them by res'
force. entities them to preferential
sideration is giving much disapl
ment everywhere except to the NJ
favored by the decree. Our own !
try accepts it, of course, but with
satisfaction. The principle laid do
the decision is that the first countr,
hereafter resorts to force to comp
payment of debt, becomes pref
creditor; the country, which, for Il
power, does not or cannot force
ment in this way, gets her CLAIM
when she can. It will suggest q

fit to proceed to that extreme.

NEW YORK, Feb. "a, 1904

Business in domestic leaf continues
10 an Indifferent state. Doubtless the
small sales aggregated would make a
very fair showing, but large deals are
almost unheard of, and trading lacks
stimulus. Small transactions in force

casionally, but the samples shown repre-
sent only limited quantity of this to-
bacco. One small lot sold during the
past week brought 68 cents. The goods

notch price IS by no means representa-
tive figure. The cold weather has thus
far prevented the general handling f

CDGEhTON, w 1S.. hdTCu 4, lOOt.
The moving of the tobacco crop is be-
ing conducted in sort of half-hearted
way Buyers are riding in some sections
but none of them seem satisfied that
they are securing bargains or doing a
safe business at whatever prices they are
able to place contracts. Nowhere do
the large operators show much interest
in the trading. There is so little of the
crop stripped that they have as yet bad
no good opportunity of examining into
the merits of the tobacco, and so large
percentage of damage seems to run
through the crop that the better judg
ment appears to be to await more favor

Old leaf is receiving but little atten-

A few days of soft weather early in the
week brought the hanging tobacco into
case again and another portion of the
crop was removed for stripping, which
may assist in keeping warehouse handl-
ing going where it has been started. The
