American Tobacco in Franc.

New 1ork TlmeS
 In five years the only substantial in- crease in the importations of Ameri- can tobacco occurred in 1905. and this increase just about measured the short age in importations from Algeria. The disposition seems to be to decrease importations from the United States, while increasing them from other coun. tries.
 American importers are dealing with an absolute Government monopoly. and if prices In the United States should advance too rapidly the monopoly Is free to buy in the cheapest available market. and may be expected to do so. to the extent that the substitute to- baccos do not interfere with the vol- tune of consumption and consequent revenue which the Toverament expects to derive from this enterprise. This is equally true of other European gov ernments which control the tobacco business The French Government Is further committed to the policy of de- veloping it's colonies in every possible manner, and, other things being qual, will give their tobaccos the preference.
