If ANY one would have prophesied to
the trade eight years ago that the out
put of our cigar industry in 1906 would
be over eight thousand millions, that
Pennsylvania filler and Wisconsin bind
er would sell at Zoe and 22c respectively,
and that Florida would be all the rage
in domestic wrapper leaf he would have
been declared as ripe for an examination
by a commission in lunacy. And yet
what was thought as almost absolutely
impossible of realization eight years ago
is today an undeniable fact. Is it there
fore so unlikely that conditions as de-
picted above, may realize eight years
hence? But suppose our cigar industry
expands in the next eight years at the
rate only it has in the past eight, that
would bring it's output up to twelve
thousand millions, where are we going to
get our domestic leaf supply? 1t may
be possible to increase our filler acreage
by SO per cent, it might be possible to do
SO with the binder acreage, with the help
of the New England states, but where is
the wrapper leaf to come from for twelve
thousand million cigars? 1t will be time
enough for the N. Y. Tobacco Journal
to worry over this proposition when we
reach the situation. In the meanti me
our farmers will try and raise enough
leaf if remunerative prices are guaran-

buying. No weather has come to damp
en- the tobacco on the poles, so none has
been taken down and the week has not
advanced the situation.
The talk still remains about the same.
There is no weakening as to prices. The
idea is that good tobacco is worth a'"ouS
Is to 20c in the bundle. Already [ hear
it estimated that more than 80 per cent.
of the crop has changed hands, but this
mostly of the variety known as the 10 to
1Sc tobacco. Much of that was consid-
cred good at the early stages of the buy
ing, but is now known as the cheap
goods. Whether the quality was equal
to the tobacco now left, am not expert
enough to decide. But, in my opinion,
it would compare fayorably with the re-
naming lots, but was held by a different
set of men; those who wanted money
for immediate use. We might say that
every pound sold for less than l6c has
been stone about the neck of those
who wanted quick money, for it has
helped to cheaper all that remained un-
sold after the first sale was made public
with the price given.

New York.
NEW YORK, Nov. II, 19


The market shows signs of slackening
up. Factories are too busy and too pre-
occupied with effecting orders to engage
now in replenishing stock. Besides, the
market has been rushed to such an ex-
tent for many weeks past that it's hold
ings have been decimated and the bulk
of leaf that could be offered consider
ably diminished. But the market is not
yet entirely bare, nor has activity come
to standstill. Transactions in reduced
quantities occur daily and where prices
keep on the level they are accomplished
quickly. All grades of domestic filler
and binder stock find ready buyers if
prices are not advanced over market
rates. Sumatra continues selling freely,
and old HaYana is gradually becoming a
scarce article AS for the new crop fac
tories are we'll aware of it's lack of full
aroma and that they have to mix it with
old stock in order to give it proper tone.
Where this precaution is neglected. con-
sumers kick will pretty soon make itself
felt, and from kick of dissatisfaction to
curtailment of consumption is but a
short step.
No indications have yet manifested
themselves of any let up in the excep-
tional activity that prevails at local CT
gar factories. Everywhere one hears
the same story, impossible to keep up
with demand, orders turned down, new
business refused, quick deliveries out of
the question, in fact, repetition of what
has been heard for the past MONTH
Journal.

The American Tobacco Company ha

The American Tobacco Company has
declared the usual quarterly dividend of
2h per cent, with an extra dividend of
7H per cent on the common stock, both
payable December 3, to stockholders OF
record on November Is. The payment
of the dividends will make an aggregate
of SO, 1854, SOL or 2211s per cent paid in 1906
on the company's S40,242, ,450 of common
stock. Of these payments, 10 per cent is
the regular rate on the stock and l219
per cent represents extra payments. The
company has been paying dividends
since March, 1900. In that year 10 per
cent in extra dividends was declared i,
making the total dividends disburse
ments 20 per cent.

With the exception of some sales OF
Wisconsin, the domestic leaf market has
been bare of interest. There are some
inquiries for Pennsylvania, but prac-
tically nothing with which to supply the
demand. Manufacturers are complain
ing about the length of time it takes to
get shipments from storage at out-of-
town points, and the leaf packers have
sent out warning that from two to three
weeks more time will be necessary on ac-
count of the congestion of freight.

briskly in spite of the extreme high
prices.
Havana is no marked change
in the situation of the local market.

farm of 189 acres, all but about Is acres
excellent, tillable land, and those heavily
timbered. This farm adjoins the village
of Lodi, Columbia county, Wis, Zone of

lying within the village limits. Much of
this can be, and doubtless in the future
will be. plated and sold for village lots.
It has good dwelling house and other
farm buildings, and stream of living
water crosses the farm.
We have also for sale other desirable

But little movement is noted in the
buying of the tobacco crop during the
week. The last remnants are so nearly
gathered in that buyers scarcely find it
worth while to travel the country dis
tricts. A few scattering transactions in
dicate that strong prices are still main

show:

Foreign buyers are in the state look
ing over packings of old leaf and we learn
that several large transactions are near
ly completed, though particulars are not
obtainable. The usual trading in small
lots is reported.
A season of casing weather prevailed
for few days during the week, and
while the temperature was a few de-
grees too low to bring about ideal condi-
tions, good many growers have taken
down some portion of their crop, which
will permit the starting of stripping.
Tobacco hardly reached the proper con-
dition to permit the general removal of
the crop.
The shipments out of storage reach IL
car loads, about 60Ocs, for the week to
all points from this market.

LANCASTER, PA, Nov. IL, 1906.
Recently very little buying Of the new
tobacco crop has been going on, the
packers having concluded that they
could not afford to pay the prices asked.
In conseq uence, they have called 10 their
buyers and are awaiting possible drop
in prices The American Cigar Manu-
facturers and big manufacturers gener-
ally have got about all the goods they
absolutely must have, and are not taking
on board more leaf than they need.
Those who will buy up what remains
unsold of the 1906 crop, estimated at
about 80 per cent, will be packers who
small cigar manufacturers. The holders
of the unsold tobacco demand 10 and l6
cents for wrappers and and cents for
filters, and the packers say they cannot
afford to pay such prices The invest
ment and cost of preparing the goods
for market would leave them no profit at
the prices they feel they will have to sell
at next fall. They paid high prices last
year, expecting 10 get away above 20
cents pound when they came to sell,
out they are only getting now from Is to
20 cents for their packings. Prices may
be no better next year.
It is probable that there will be few
sales of the new crop now until after it
is all stripped. Some mould has devel-
oped among the tobacco, but not more
than usual.
There was very little selling of old to-
bacco the past week, and that only in
small lots The trouble is what it has
been all season, the packers being un-
willing to sell at the prices offered by in
tended buyers.
The cigar industry continues to boom
in our city and county, the only trouble
being a lack of cigarmakers. Era.
