HANDLED $1,000 PEOPLE
DURING FAIR WEEK
ESTIMATE SHOWS THAT FULLY
FORTY THOUSAND PEOPLE At
TENDED TWENTY-FlFTH TERRI
TORIAL FAIR.

Superintendent NJ. o. Chadbourne,
of the Albuquerque Traction company,
announced yesterday that the Albu-
querque street railway handled $4,000
people during fair week. This number
of fares az cents each amounts to
S2,625, which is not a bad showing for
four cars. This shows that large
Humber of people attended the sports
at Traction park. When compared
with an ordinary six days business OF
5000 fares and deducting several thou
sand fares for the ordinary increase
OF business during fair week and the
large number of people who walked
and went to the grounds i'm vehicles, II
shows that at least 10000 people tray
eled to Traction park during the six
days of the fair.
Las Vegas made the brag that 5000
people passed the gates of Gallinas
park during the Northern New Mexico
fair, which is just one-fifth of the
number of people who Travelled TO
Traction park during the territorial
fair. Yet the perturbed Las Vegas Op-
tic says that the Albuque'q fair was
a failure.

CORRALLES BRIDGE
IS IN BERNALILL0
Decision of Surveyor Means
More Trouble for County
Commissioners.
BILLS AND BONDS ARE APPROVED

More trouble for the board of com
missioners of Beinalillo county is
what the decision of County Surveyor
Don j. Rankin means regarding the
question of which county owns the
Corralles bridge. Mr.. Rankin was in
structed by the board at its last meet
ing, to make a survey and ascertain
in which county this bridge was To-
Gated. Although he has not submit
ted a written report of his findings to
the board of commissioners, Chairman
Arthur Grunsfeld and Member Man
uel Springer report that he has in
formed them that the bridge is sit
uated in Bernalllo county.
This settles question that has been
more or less threshed out for many
months. 1t seems that the commits
sioners have another bridge on their
hands that is going to prove both
costly and troublesome. The bridge
at present is in bad condition, the
result of the spring and summer floods
and it will require considerable out
lay to put it in shape so that 1t can
be used for travel.
Board Transacts Minor Business.
The board met in regular monthly
session at Jne court HOuse Iuls lhOlh
ing and attended to considerable rou-
tine business. The bonds of a hum-
ber of road supervisors were approveE
and the board also passed upon the
usual number of bills.
Several persons who were cited to
appear before the board to show
cause. why they should not be fined
for violating the rules about fast
driving on the Barelas bridge, were
given a hearing. The parties had
been reported by the bridge watch.
man. They were given a severe lee
ture and warning, and the next time
the board will not be so lenient, but
will impose a fine upon them.
1t is expected that the board will
complete its sessions late this after.

KILLING TIME IN ALBUQUERQUE

H. S. Boyd and party are guests at
the AlvaradO. Mr.. Boyd is a retired
cattleman, residing at 2020 Washing
ton street, San Francisco, and is now
on tour which will carry him around
the world. He is Scotch-Irish, 6 feet
3, weighs PIP pounds and straight as
an arrow. Mr.. Boyd is the true type
of a westerner, with the college polish.
Up to ten years ago the Boyd brand
could be found from the DakOtas to
Arizona. He spent much time around
Williams, AriZ., and on visiting the
Grand Canyon town a week ago, he
was much disappointed at finding none
of the old-timers still holding forth
there. If you see a big man with
leather riding spats on dun pony,
why. that's Mr.. Boyd.

THE RETURN OF "RAMONA"

1t will be pleasant news to theater-
soers to learn that Manager Matson
has arranged for a return engagement
of Ramona" at the Elks' theater next
Wednesday for one night. The sue
cess of Helen Hunt Jacksons ro-
mantle story of early California was
so pronounced last Saturday night that
the demand for a return engagement
was natural. Manager Matson was
fortunate in securing the company
for a second visit, and those who did
not see the delightful performance
last Saturday should not miss the op-
pOrtunity next Wednesday night.

Our correspondents report as follows:
Hinsdale, N. H.: Tobacco plants are up,

crops of 1904 tobacco in town and fifty
cases of 1908 crop, and it is good tobac-

small crop of 5000 pounds is the only to-

LANCASTER NEW ERA, May 9, 1905.

Whether the tobacco mems convention
held in this city last week stirred up the
trade, or whether some other cause
helped the matter along, or whether
there was some other special inducing
cause, the fact remains that in some way
our local dealers were enabled to supply
some of the demands of the trade. The
sales reported to US were 50cs bought by
J. w. Brenemann; 30Ocs sold by Kramer
& Goldberg, and 100cs bought by the
same firm; 130cs of Ohio and Toes of
Wisconsin goods sold by John FL. Hell
land & Co., and 105cs of Ohio sold by 1.
FL. Weaver; in all, 755cs. For the cor
responding week of last year the sales
we're 575cs.
The crop of last year is about ali in
the cases, and the warehouses no longer
present the scenes of busy activity that
characterized them for the past four
months.

Wisconsin Tobacco Letter.


Edgerton, Wisconsin, is one of the
great tobacco centers in America, and
comparatively all the tobacco that sup
plies this market is produced in six
counties, viz Rock, Dane, Columbia,
Crawford, Jefferson and Vernon. Within
the last two years the acreage planted
in Rock and Dane, the two largest pro-
ducing counties in the state has been
considerably diminished, on account of
trust methods forcing prices SO low. that
tobacco has too frequently been sold at
loss to the producer I:G1 III s1li4
Trust methods are highly satisfactory
to the trust managers who, operate in
this section. Farmers do not offerlmuch
tobacco before the succeeding crop is
being prepared for. To hold their crop
for another six months means some loss
in weight, expense in handling and sort
ing, and heretofore, with no assurance
of any better prices to follow. The trust
has held prices low during the winter
months knowing the farmers will hold
for better prices so long as they can do
so without extra trouble. They keep
prices low in the spring because they
know farmers will sell rather than hold
and take chances. Those who persisted
in holding and agitated any movement
for such purposes were spotted" and
when their crops were offered very low
price would be rendered, thereby teach
ing" holders the futility of holding.
Until the American Society of Equity
came forward with its plan, our growers
felt the hopelessness of holding their
crops and sold at the first opportunity, !.
regardless of price. But new hope is
springing up and we feel that chances
are all in our favor. With all growers
combined in demand for fair price,
refusing to sell until that price is offer
ed, we feel that we can make the neces-
sary arrangements to hold our tobacco,
knowing that in time the buyers must
come to our terms. It will pay us to
hold and to make all necessary arrange
mehts. Years of short supply will occur
and call for any surplus that may exist
and the planter may as well have the
profits as the speculator. Interest in the
American Society of Equity is spreading
rapidly and it is only question of time
until our farmers will join this move
ment, and take charge of our tobacco
markets. Very respectfully yours,
HERMAN Olson, Cambridge, Wis.
There will be meeting of the Ameri-
can Society of Equity at Cambridge,
Saturday, May 20, at 2 p. NJ. All mem
bers and also non members are requested
to come and join the society, which has
q membership of 104.

The market remains quiet with but a
small amount of tobacco in the growers
hands M. Tobin has his warehouse
open and has force of about thirty at
work and is looking for more help. The
growers have their plant beds prepared
and prospects are fine for a good paying
crop this year with favorable season.
There being scarcity of good tobacco
in the market, the crop this year should
command good prices-Gazette.

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN. WIS, MAY 19, 1905.

Business in the local tobacco markets
is on declining scale. Some leaf is yet
marketed, though there is little riding
being done this week. Walter Little
sold 36 acres of his '03 and 'O4 crop in
bundle to Geo. Rumrill. Ole Saunder-
son sold Ga to Stoughton dealer at 71sc c
asst. and John Hyland Goes '03 at &C.
comprise some of the movements from
first hands. N. E. Nelson's packing OF
04, some 225cs, has been sold to Culton
& We'll. Halverson & Bitters sold 113cs
of '04 to Child and Toes of '03 to New
York parties. Pomeroy & Co. are load
ing seven cars of export and have re-
ceived four cars of northern leaf, are
some of the movements with packers in
dull week.
The weather of the week has been ex-
tremely unfavorable to farm work and
growers have been able to do but little
in the way of preparing their fields for
the new crop. The plant beds are max
ing but slow progress, but the plants are
in abundance and healthy.
The shipments out of storage do not
exceed 800 cases from this market to all
points for the week.

JANESVILLE, w IS., May IL, lSUO.
The continuation of cold and rainy
weather is preventing speedy growth
of plants and as result there will be a
late plan ting this season in this section
of the to obacco growing country.
There is no awakening in the buying
and selling end of the business and
again combining the two troubles it
makes the leaf dealing trade a dull SUBJ
ject for the present Predictions are for
lively trade this coming fall and if the
crop of 1904 fulfills the promises that it
has already shown in tine sweat, some
acute bargains will be driven. Now and
then a rider may be seen and an occa-
sional crop is picked up, but on the
whole that end of the trade is also on
the close. 1t is now the leaf dealers va
cation time and many of them here are
taking advantage of the opportunity.
There was slight increase in the
shipping and buying during the past
ten days and the results are as follows:
J. A. Ryan shipped 10000 lbs. of stripp-
ed goods during the week and buys 30
acres of new leaf Mr.. Ryan will soon
open his warehouse on North First ST.,
and closed the packing at the DeForest
place Tuesday forenoon. M. F. Green
shipped 80 cases of 1908 and received a
car of 1904 from the north; Fisher &
Fisher bought 100 cases of 1908 and sell
$50 cases of 1923; j. M. Thayer ships a
car of 1901 leaf Friday.

Miss RaWIs was still in the employ

met and was won By Mr.. Reader. His
career had been quite as Interesting
as her own. He was born in New Yea

short, very dark, with black eyes and
mustaehe. He could pass as a South
American any time. He was private
secretary to Sir Charles Evan Smith,
the British minister to Morocco, IN
1892. In 1887 he became private secre-
tary to Sir West. RidgeWay, governor
Of Ceylon. Various circumstances
caused him to become familiar with
affairs in Peru. and while he was still
interested he met Miss Raw1s in Lon

make interesting reading. It is said
that they are more than little sus-
nicious that it was Mr.. Cromwell who
betrayed their dealings with the dis
tressed republic to the Washington
government and caused the bargain
they thought they had made to be
knocked in the head.
1t was in the fall Of 1904 said Mr..
Reader, that one Of the secret agents
OF President Morales, located IN the
city Of New York, was a young man
named Perez, a native Of San Domingo.
These. secret agents, By the way,
who represent Gen. Morales IN the

New York. There are always more
than one, and they are called secret
agents because, although representing
the same government, they are nearly
always unknown to each other. The
reason Of the existence Of these secret
agents need not be stated here. but
they are considered necessary 70 the
