The market seems to be feeling the
effects of the recent financial disturb
ances, and during the past seven days
but few transactions have been reported.
The situation has been aggravated by
the fact that Tuesday was a holiday.
and none of the leaf houses we're open
for business. Except for such manu-
facturers as are positively in need of
stocks there has been but little inquiry,
and there seems to be general disposi-
tion on the part of the trade to wait un-
til money conditions are in better shape
before investing.
Sumatra-Even this type, which has
been the steadiest seller on the market
this year, has felt the effects of adverse
conditions. and houses that specialize it
report business extremely quiet. A num-
Der of small sales have been made, but
the volume of business done was small.
Havana.-Local dealers have expressed
satisfaction at the news from Cuba that
the railway situation there is in better
shape, SO that the shipments of leaf
from the country to Havana are more
liberal Not much activity is reported
in the market there, and for the reason
that there is very little tobacco to be
had here, the local market is bare Of in
terest. A few bales of Partidos have
changed hands here. Leaf.

the same as they have been for some
time past. Packers are holding their
old goods, which means the 1906 crop,
for what they think is fair price, and
the dealers from the large cities, or their
representatives., are after lower prices.
The packers say they cannot sell below
20 cents pound on the scale and make
a decent profit. Their only sales lately
have been to manufacturers, and these
are only buying for immediate use, and
are not laying by any stock. Like the
outside buyers, they are hoping for
lower prices. During the past week the
aggregate sales were small.
Conflicting reports continue to be
made as to the manner in which the new
crop is curing, but from all that can be
learned it is apparent that a good deal is
not curing as satisfactorily as could be
desired. The warmth for sweating is
lacking, and there are other reasons best
known to the grower. The latter say
the packers are decrying the condition
of the new crop in order to lower prices,
while the packers accuse the growers of
an intention to hold out for prices be-
yond reason.
The cigar industry continues steady.
Nobody had any idea that the output in
the Ninth Internal Revenue District for

The early cut tobacco is fast being
put into the bundles, and this week will
see the major part of the work complet-
ed. To hear the Dragging about the tine
quality of the leaf one would think they
had the best crop raised in number Of
years. AS every one declares the tobac-
CO good, we shall be compelled to believe
what they say, and 1t does us good to-
| hear of several who will assort their
own crops if they are asked to accept a
less price than was paid last year. How
an uncertain quantity, although upon a
slight examination of one crop OF late to-
bacco I was convinced that the colors
would be from medium to dark, but
perhaps upon close inspection might
but hope it will run light for that is
what sells the crop.
Our correspondents report as follows.
Suffield, CT: "The tobacco that was fit
to come down during the damp spell is
being taken from the laths and put into
bundles, ready TO be inspected by the
buyers in the near future" Bradstreet,
Mass: From three to ten acres were
taken down last Monday ia very good
condition. One more good damp will see
about all the early cut tobacco 10 the
bundle The late cut still shows an oc-
casional green Leaf but, with the present
mild weather, will be ready for the bum
die soon. No sales to report here as
yet" Conway, Mass: "a little stripping
has been done here the past week, but
there is lots OF tobacco that is not cured
enough yet. We had nice rain and
damp the 28th and 29th and another last
Saturday." North Hatfield, Mass: Il
have to report the sale of two crops of
1906 tobacco, one of AZ cases by Edwin
Bardwell of West Whately to Stiles of
Philadelphia; the other by Edward
Dickinson of North Hatfield, 68 cases, to
McGrath of Northampton, Mass, agent
for New York firm; two very nice
crops, and, | am told. at good prices.
The tobacco in this neighborhood is
more than half taken down. Some of
the late tobacco is not cured so as to
warrant it's removal from the poles yet.

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGRRToN, WIS.,, Nov. 15,

wv lS., 4<UN. LIZ, lCOts
The week has been continuation of
the pleasant fall weather that has proven
so helpful to the curing out of the to-
bacco crop. The first heavy freezes, Sc
we're enough TO reach the interior of the
curing sheds, have occurred, but it is
nos anticipated that much injury could
be done to the leaf A number of out
side buyers have visited the state dur
ing the week, mainly in search of cured
stock of low grade varieties, and some
trades of moderate sized quantities have
been effected, though particulars are not
yet obtainable. Dizziness, however, per-
vades the general market, chargeable
largely to the unsettled financial con-
ditions. The manufacturing trade is
simply not buying and there is nothing
to do but to wait. Forced sales cannot
mean anything but losses.
There is hardly the slightest hope that
the new crop will commence to move
until it is stripped and in the bundle
which will insure trading on more sat-
isfactory basis than for some years past.
It is probable that little of the crop
might be removed for stripping when
the next casing weather comes.
The shipments out of storage reach
about 700 cases, IA car loads, for the
week to all points from this market.

Tobacco Consumption Increases.

The general lassitude of cigar leaf to.
bacco buyers so far this season may pos
sibly cause a few growers to take
cheerless view of the market situation
AS far as can be learned very little, If
any, Of the '07 crop has been contracted
or sold. The delay in the opening of the
market may be partly attributed to the
lateness of the season.
The general market for cigar leaf to
bacco, as far as the dealer and the man
ufacturer are concerned. is in healthy
condition. The consumption OF cigars
continues at record breaking pace.
During the fiscal year just closed the
total output of large and small cigars In
the United States amounted to 8,642,-
100000, a figure almost too great for the
mind to grasp. Sufficient to state this
is equivalent to 100 cigars per annum
for every man, woman and child in the
United States. During the past decade
the average annual increase in the pro-
duction of cigars has amounted to 10 per
cent. A point of significance for the
grower to bear in mind is that the out
put of cigar leaf tobacco has not enlarg-
ed proportionately.
The only cloud on the tobacco market
situation right at present is the failure
of a few dealers and cigar manufacturers
during recent weeks. However, these
for the most part were small concerns
and it is claimed that their going to the
wall could be attributed more to trust
competition and the stringency of the
money market than to any market let
up in their business The nervous trep-
idation that seems to exist in some other
lines of industry does not appear to have
taken root in tobacco circles, although
buyers are cautious.-N E. Homestead.

fences O.: the presen. banking situation

as New York banks refused to return

lowed suit, so as to tie up the balances
of their own correspondents. But the
brunt of the burden is falling on the
country banks which have no cores

NEW YORK, Nov. 9, 1907.
The woes and throes of the financial
crisis continued to affect the leaf market
during the past week. Some business, OF
course, was done, mostly of the routine
kind, but speculative trading was out of
question. The leaf Offices in Water
street we're busy rather with banking
than with trading in merchandise. Not
only did requests continue for renewing
notes and extending credits, but per-
emptory demands were even made to
furnish cash for paying duties and cur
rency for paying off hands. Now, all
this may be high compliment to the
financial stability and resources of our
local leaf trade, but it certainly exceeds
not only good natured forebearance but
the actual avenues of aid in the leaf
market. For that market is no huge
clearing house center. It depends in
the same measure as it's cigar manufac-.
turing customers on the regularly con-
stituted banking institutions, and when
these shut down on discounts and on
parting with currency, the leaf market
is in the same pinch as those who apply
to it for help. Notes may be renewed in
some instances without too great incon-
venience when they have not been dis
counted by their holders. But to sup
ply currency for the payment of duties
and hands is far more difficult and
EN- barrassing task. Under these condi-
tions it would behoove the customers of
the trade to go slow and not to ask &C
commodations, which, in the very nature
of the situation it is impossible to COM
ply with. AS for trading itself, it's pros
poets of recuperation to the full extent
of the seasons requirements are rather
cIouded. While the reports of the Oc-
tober output in the Pennsylvania dis
tricts establish new record breakers, the
October returns from the metropolitan
districts tell rather discouraging tale.
October is generally the busiest month
in our cigar industry, and when the out
put in that month falls off it forestalls
decreasing holiday trade. The reduction
in the New York output has it's peculiar
significance. In this city are made the
higher grades of nickel and dime cigars,
and the decrease in their output, cou-
pied with the additional fact that some
large cigar factories had to lay off hun
dreds of workmen means that the better
situated class of smokers are commenc-

grade cigars. The fact, on the other
hand, of the increase in the Pennsylvania
districts, where not only the cheaper
grades of cigars are being made, but
where manufacturing is so much cheap
er, proves that both the trade and smok-
ing public are on the lookout for
cheaper cigar. These are straws which
cannot fail to rehict on change in the
