has reached such stage that Felix G.
Ewing, the chairman of the executive
committee of the association, has been
challenged to duel by Moses Hall, a
leader of the opposition. The challenge
has been accepted and friends of both
parties have thus far prevented their
meeting, but tragedy is feared should
they meet. The association forces num-

are not. A boycott has been declared
against those not affiliated with the as
sociation and doctors. merchants, law
yers, mechanics, druggists and men in
all walks of life have been forbidden to
aid the non members in any manner
whatsoever. It is said that the success
OF the association this year in securing
from go to 70 per cent of the crop
brought many doubling Thomases into
the fold, and 95 per cent of the crop was
pledged to the association for the han
ding of which the association has erect
ed warehouses all over the district. So
intense have the people become that
they have organized bands of might
riders" or 'possum hunters" who have
resorted to intimidating methods in
gathering in members for the associa-
tion. Reports have been made and are
being authenticated, it is further said,
that farmers have been taken from their
homes at night and strung up" until
they agreed to cooperate with and not
antagoniZe the association.

Connecticut Valley Tobacco Market.

With the passing of another week the
same story confronts us. 1t is good
weather for most kinds of farm work,
but without rain or casing weather for
the tobacco growers. There is very lit
tie fog on these mornings. Friday night
the wind was south, and the anxious in
quiry was heard on every hand: do you
think we shall get tobacco damp?" On
Saturday morning the lower tiers were
dampened SO that you could squeeze the
leaves together without breaking them.
Sunday evening it was raining quite
hard, but quite cold, and since then it
has been clear and cold again, although
rain is predicted. But the tobacco was
not in good case, SO that very little was
taken down in this immediate vicinity.
Our correspondents report as follows:
North Hatfield, Mass: II have to report
the sale of one crop of tobacco by Frank
2. Jones, 25 acres at private terms;
acres of this crop was badly hail cut.
Also the crop of Charles Carson, 2 acres,

Four Years.

Within four years the Chicago, Mil
waukee & st. Paul Railway Co. will be
running through trains, over it's own
lines, between Chicago, Milwaukee and
ST. Paul, and Seattle and Tacoma, Wash.
With this fact esta blished, the Milwau-
kee system will be one of more than
10000 miles of main lines, or one of the
largest railway systems. under one own
ership and single management, in the
United States.
Tie first formal and official announce
ment of the fact that the Milwaukee
would be running to the north Pacific
coast, within four years. and of the plans
for it, was made by President A. j. Earl
ing, although Second Vice President E
w. McKenna gave out brief statement
Tuesday night as to the decision of the
board of directors to go to the coast.
President Earling said "The brief
announcement from New York that the
board of directors have decided to build
line to the north Pacific coest, is cor
rect. As to further facts regarding it, [
can only say that an effort will be made
to have this line complete within the
next four years. The terminals in the
west will be at Seattle and Tacoma, in
the state of Washington. 1t is estimated
that the construction and equipment of
the new line will cost IN the neighbor-
hood of 56O0O0000. The line from South
Dakota will be one of about 1900 miles.

LANCASTER, PENN, Nov. %, 1905.
A ray of hope has pierced the dark
ness enveloping our leaf dealers. With.
warehouses bare of old goods nothing re-
mained to them but await the arrival of
the new crop. Stripping operations have
been going on actively lately, and some
few crops have already been received at
warehouses. Some of this is not thor
oughly cured yet, the larger ribs not be-
ing thoroughly dried out. The growers,
having sold their crops, and many need
ing money, will lose no time now in get
ting them to the warehouses being anx-
ious, too, to get them off their hands, in
order to avoid accidents During the
coming month there will be great deal
of goods delivered, and the buyers who
use the bulk-sweating system will lose
no time in getting to work on their pur-
chases. Some few of our dealers have
been operating in Ohio and Wisconsin
goods, but on limited SCALE
The cigar business continues good
with the manufacturers who have their
own stock of topacco on hand Many of
the smaller factories have closed for lack
of materials to work on. It is reported
that even in York county, where there
we're any quantity of cheap cigars on
hand until recently, this class of goods
is getting scarce.-NeW Era.

NEW YORK, Dec. 2, 1905.

A genuine sensation was caused in the
market by the report that four packing
houses in the Street have sold their con-
tracts for the 1905 Wisconsin to the
American Tobacco Company at an ad-
vance of two and half cents per pound.
This means that on ten thousand cases
profit of $4,000 would be realized
without cent of cash investment or the
risk of a penny, a transaction which puts
in shade even the now famous syndicate
participations by the life insurance com
panies. If to this is added the fact that
several houses downtown are competing
with each other in the purchase at II
cents of 1904 Pennsylvania which but a
few months ago another house in the
street disposed of at l415 cents, the
trade will have to come to realization
of the unprecedented condition of the
market at present. Moreover, those ex-
traordinary investments are not made
for speculative purposes, but for actual
use. And If we were to report all the
stories anoat in the market, as, for in
stance, the offers made by original pack
ers to their customers for whom they
still hold in storage the goods sold them
to resell them part of their purchases at
most substantial profit, of the appeals
made to friendship and old connections
for the sale of goods at a reasonable
price, and of the begging that is being
done to part with some types at any
price, people might think we were trying
to entertain them with a tale of Muen-
chausen. But the facts are sterner than
any imagination could picture For the
general cry is, where are we going to get
the tobacco to do business with? Even
at the prices asked some houses that
look for the future are hesitating to part
with the goods. How all this will end
is another question. But the prospects
are such that the immediate future does
not vouchsafe a satisfactory answer

True, we have a goodly supply of it in

A movement has been commenced
among the tobacco buyers in purchasing
the thinner Spanish. Several buyers
have been active the past week, and
Spanish has been bought at 8, 9, and 10
cents. Warm, rainy weather would wit

1905 averages $50 pounds; in 1904 it was

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN. WIS, Dec. 8. 1905.


Business in the local tobacco markets
is reduced now to trading in odds and
ends very largely. There is but little
riding in country districts or but small
occasion for it, SO scattering are the rem
nants to be found unsold AS one dealer
puts it, 991a per cent. of the crop is un-
der contract, and it is rare indeed that
crop of old leaf can be located in first
hands Among the transactions of the
week is the sale of 107cs 'O4 by Pelton &
Klauber of Madison to W. T. Pomeroy &
Co., who also report the sale of car
loads of old stock to Chicago dealers.
I'll. Sweeney sold 100cs lot of '04 to
Spitzner and 25cs 03 to Loeb of Phila-
delphia, and the purchase of 104cs of a
Rio packer and 50cs lot of Pease at Sun
Prairie and 50cs lot of Campbell & Sayre.
T. e. Welch sold Toes of O3 Halvor Lee
delivered ACES of 'O3 to Hanson Bros. at
1219 cents.
No signs of casing weather have ap-
peared since last report and very little
progress has been made towards strip
ping the new crop, for only fraction is
yet removed from the polls. Quick work
would now be made of the stripping
after the arrival of casing conditions
which growers now anxiously await.
The shipments out of storage are
handicapped by the shortage of line cars
and do not exceed 50Ocs from this mar
ket to all points for the week.

The terrorizing condition that prevails
in some of the tobacco growing sections
of the south is attracting the attention
of the country. The agitation growing
out of an effort to control the dark to-
bacco crop of Tennessee and Kentucky
between the trust and an association of
growers and capitalists has become so
bitter that ''night riders are touring
through the dark tobacco districts in an
effort to bring the timld growers into
line with the association. These might
riders" it is said, are terrorizing the peo-
pie in some portions of the tobacco dis
tricts by threats of personal violence,
and it is further stated that personal
violence has been resorted to in order to
gain an agreement to join the associa-
ton, or sell no more tobacco except IN.
der the association management Bitter
protests have been lodged against this
sort of campaining. and persons familiar
with the situation say that unless the
association repudiates these might rid

The name of the Plateau Valley
Stockman has been changed to that
of the Plateau Voice. The change
has been made, say the editors of
that paper, because the name Stock
man has become entirely inappro-
pirate. The Messrs. Pitts propose to
publish the Stockman as a monthly
journal, which will better serve the
interests of the stockmen of that sec
tion than they are at present being
served. The word Valley is
dropped also because it is stated
that the principal farming region
of that section is not in the river
valley but on the mesas, and because
they are really not located in the
valley but in the basin of the river.
We shall make no objections what
ever to the change proposed by that
paper and think that they are timely
and reasons cogent. Messrs. Pitts
are furnishing the people of that
section one of the best country news
papers in the state and their efforts
should be appreciated in large list
of subscribers and all the support
that can possibly be given them. No

The court adjourned at noon un-
til O'Clock in the afternoon.
This afternoon the first witness
called was Mr. Anderson. barkeeper
in the Abbey saloon. He was a wit
ness for the prosecution. His testi-
mony corroborated TO a great ex-
tent that of McLuen's. Mr.. Reams,
proprietor of the Abbey, followed
Anderson. No new features were
brought out in his testimony. Mr..
Brown. a ranchman, who witnessed
the trouble. was again called by the
defense. Brown was called in the
morning as witness for the prose
cution.
At 3:15 O'Clock a young man
named Welsh was called by the de-
fense. Welsh was present when the
trouble took place. He stated that
his attention was first attracted to
the two men by McI.uen calling Bed
well names that reflected upon the
honor of Bedwell's mother. Welsh
testified that McLuen repeated the
vile epithets several times. Bedwell
made no similar attack at that time
Then, Welsh stated. he saw McLuen
push or strike Bedwell. The wit
ness was not positive whether Nc
Luen merely pushed Bedwell or
struck him. Bedwell then "ducked"
from under McLuen and went out
the front door.
Welsh was on the stand at the
hour The Sentinel goes to press. The
defense had several witnesses to call
including Mr.. Bedwell, the defend
ant. The testimony of the latter
will be given in tomorrow's edition.

is assisting Guy V. Sternberg in the
