affair created profound sensation
and sorrow throughout the commun-

Eye witnesses to the tragedy state
that just prior to the shooting and

The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1908-07-24
New York.
NEW YoRK, July 18, 1903


The market is wearing the physiog-
nomy of the dullness of the midsummer's
season. The lassitude of the vacation
period is perceptible almost everywhere.
Both manufacturer and dealer seem to
be concerned more about how to get the
most out of their outing enjoyment than
in the actual trend of business affairs.
Most of the members of the trade are
being found rather at the seashore or in
the mountain resorts or in fishing expes
ditions or in pleasure travelling than in
their offices. The market is bare OF buy
ers as it has not been for years, even at
this season of the dog days. TheAonly
business thought the market seems to
be concerned IN at present is IN regard
to the outcome of the new crops Not
for many years past has the growing
season been as favorable for an abun-
dant and perfect tobacco crop as this
year. The hot weather started in rather
early and has kept up so far without a
break, and while steady rains have been
missing, the periodical doWnpours seem
to have carried sufficient relief to the
sun exposed plants. So far the tobacco
plants seem to have been spared the
usual damage by hail storms and exces-
sive drouths, and they promise, there
fore, an exceptionally large and faultless
crop. Ii nothing unforeseen should oc-
cur before the tobacco crop is being har-
vested, the 1908 crop is Likely to restore
the market to it's normal condition.
