Cigar Production Increasing.

The figures produced by the annual
report of the Internal Revenue depart
ment show an enormous increase in ci4
gar production. In the calendar year of
1895 the output of our cigar industry
amounted to 1909, ,137, ,855, and in the CAL
endar year 1904 to 1876, ,669, ,742 In these
ten years the output of our cigar indus
try increased three thousand and three
hundred millions! and this in spite of
the invasion into this field by the tobac-
co trust. A further increase by two hun
dred millions is shown at the end Of the
last fiscal year, June 80, 1905, in a total
of Z, ,588 1897 ,206. These figures are al
most too stunning for easy comprehen-
sion. Just consider and revolve it slowly
and carefully in your mind seven and a
half thousand million cigars of which
three and a balf thousand millions are a
gain of but ten short years! And it is
not the trust which has tho lions share
of this gigantic production. It's share is
about one seventh, while the balence is
produced by 26, ,703 Individual and inde-
pendent accounts. No danger here then
of our cigar industry being monopolized
by one single corporation, and he who
shouts contrary does so from ignorance
or demagoguism.
Of course, such gigantic industry has
also gigantic stomach. 1t absorbed in
1904, 127 669, ,253 pounds of leaf against
77,499,87 pounds in 1895 In other words
our cigar industry needs today fifty mil
lion pounds of leaf more than it did ten
years ago. Is it then surprising that the
price of the raw material is advancing
also? The consumption of leaf has in
creased in the past ten years by about 40
per cent, but in spite of the cry of high
prices the price has not yet advanced at
the same ratio all along the line. OF the
127,669,253 pounds of leaf consumed,
about twenty million pounds we're of for
eign, the balance domestic. And right
here the statistics show a rather pecu-
liar state. In 1895 our imports of for
eign leaf amounted to 31,055, 1899 pounds
valued at SIS, ,225, 800, while in 1904 our
imports of foreign leaf amounted to 3d.,
603, ,290 valued at SIG, sos, 564 ln other
words ten years ago we imported over
million more pounds of foreign leaf at
value of million dollars less than we
did in the boomy time of 1904. But
there is an explanation for this too. Ten
years ago we imported considerably
more foreign leaf than we needed, con-
sequently its value deprecated also. To-
day We need vastly larger quantity of
foreign leaf, both of Sumatra and Ha-
vana, but importing less than we did ten
years ago its value is naturally on the
increase. This accounts likewise for the
higher prices of Havana and Sumatra
prevailing now.

New YORK. Dec. 6. 1905

During the past week there has been
a damp spell in the New England states
that has given the farmers an opportun
ity to take down their tobacco and strip
it. A considerable quantity has been
taken down. The situation with the
Connecticut tobacco, now that its de-
fects can be seen, is far from encourag-
ing. The percentage of pole-sweat is
quite large and the number of crops that
have been entirely spared is very small.
However, the farmers are still demand
ing high prices, but unless lack of dis
elimination is shown in buying, many
crops can be bought later on at prices
nearer the right value. The American
Cigar Co, finding themselves short of
the supply of Wisconsin tobacco they in
tended to purchase, have bought num-
ber of contracts from those who took
time by the forelock, and in many in
stances paid material advance over the
first price. Some of the more conserva-
tive houses, feeling that they are left.
have also bought some contracts from
the first holders, paying fair advance
In Ohio, it is safe to state, 80 per cent.
of the Gebhardt is out of the packers
hands, and the thinner Spanish is being
bought up at lively rate by large pack
ers, some of whom have advanced the
price in some instances to 10 cents
pound. In Pennsylvania the buying has
been closed for some time, and the pack
ers have been idle for the past month
waiting for damp spell.
Havana There is keen demand for
all serviceable types of Havana tobacco,
and the market both here and in Havana
has been the scene of almost unexam-
pied activity. Transactions have been

able. There is a particular inquiry for
