SATURDAY BOOZE
AND ACCIDENTS

Booze was the basis for series of
accidents and one attempt at suicide
on Saturday, the police reports on file
at the station setting forth in each
case that the victims had sponged up
intoxicants of various brands.
First of all, Kealiipuia, a Hawaiian,
attempted to take his life at his home
on Parker lane, off Liliha street, by
the hara- kiri route, although he was
not impelled to this old method by a.y
such sentiment which guides a japanese
to perform the same deed. Kealiipuia
used an ordinary kitchen knife ami
with this attempted to disembowel him
self, succeeding only in making some
deep gashes in his stomach. He was
intoxicated at the time. Inmates of the
house found the wounded man and mott
flying the police, Kealiipuia was soon
in the Queen S Hospital While he has
inflicted some severe wounds in his alb
domen, and is in a serious condition,
it is expected that he will pull through.
Kealiipuia has been sick for some
time, was worried about his condition,
and decided to rid the world an1 reia
tives of what he considered a burctn.
Lui, a Hawaiian, while under the in
fiuence of liquor, visited his friend
Philip at On Yen's house on Soath
street in Kakaako. During the even
ing Lui was holding forth on the polit-
zeal situation and leaned against the
veranda While rounding off rhetori.
cal gem he toppled over, and to the
horror of his audience went over the
railing to the ground and landed on
his head and shoulders, the fall being
about ten feet. He was picked up I'M
conscious and was conveyed to the
Queen IS Hospital in that condition. He
was reported yesterday afternoon to be
coming around nicely.
Mrs On Yen told the police that
Lui S reasons for calling at the place
was particularly to get booze, If any
was on tap.
Then about $50 clock in the even
ing Frank Welch who was reported
to the police to have been somewhat
ssunder the influence boarded car Ii
of the Rapid Transit Company, and as
II rounded the curve at the corner of
Beretania and Nuuanu streets, fell off
and struck upon his side, shaking him
up considerably. According to the po-
lice reports he was taken to the Queens
Hospital but inquiry at the hospital
reveals no such case on their records.

ducive to particular activity in the leaf
market. Nevertheless, business was
not at a standstill The active move

During the past week very little was
done in this locality towards taking the
remainder Of the 1909 crop of tobacco
from the poles. Monday some of the
crop showed casing condition, although
with the majority of it the storm did
not last long enough. But after the
later storm and the tobacco did not be-
come damp enough, those who took
down part of the remnant have been
kicking themselves for not taking down
the whole that was left hanging. This
incident admonishes them to do the
whole thing when it is possible.
Our correspondents report as follows:
Deerfeld, Mass, Nov Is: Il report
quite lot of tobacco taken from the
poles last week, and it looks as though
we were going to have another good
time this week to take the rest down
and strip it out j. C. Decker opens
his asserting shop today with few
men, and will take lot more as soon
as he can get them. Help is scarce at
present. - Hatfield, Mass, Nov. 20:
ssThere was not much tobacco taken
from the poles last week, as it was too
dry. Several of the asserting shops
are now open, and others will open on
Monday next with a full force of men. E

LANCASTER, Pa, Nov. %, 1909.
AS there is, so little 1906 and 1907
leaf tobacco in the local market, it cuts
no figure in the market, and even the
1908 crop stirred up no interest. There
have been plenty of inquiries lately,
but the local packers and outside deal
ers cannot get together on prices, ex-
cept in a few deals. The packers ask
II and 18 cents, but the outsiders con-
slider this too stiff by a cent or two.
Local holders of the 1908 tobacco have
made some money on it, and they feel
that they can afford to hold on to what
they have left, believing the condition
of the market justifies them IN de-
manding the prices they ask. In fact,
they do not believe these prices Will
hold very long, being confident OF an
early advance. The manufacturers
must have tobacco, and as there is
practically nothing but the 1903 goods
to depend on, they must expect to pay
the packers prices.
Weather conditions have been so un-
satisfactory lately that not much strip
ping of the new crop has been done,
and the cold weather coming on the
heels of the long, dry period will not
benefit matters. The indications are
that the stripping will be late this sea-
son.
1t was generally believed by the local
packers that the trusts would not want
any of Lancaster county's tobacco this
year, because the leaves are SO short,
but a representative Of one of the
trusts declared only a few days ago
that if they find that the crop is being
properly stripped, the trusts will be
large buyers and will sweep the courty.
Unless they offer pre- ty good price
for the crop they will not get any of it.

Business has been very good in do
nestle tobaccos in the past week, sales
being reported in almost every type
except the new Ohio, which is not yet
ready. Wisconsin, Of the 1908 crop,
has led in point of sales, one firm hav-
ing sold four lots of 1000 cases each
since the beginning of the month.
While Pennsylvania transactions are
few in the local market, it is reported
that a, 600 cases have changed hands in
Lancaster within week, being seven
different packings. The exciting buy
ing of 1909 Gebhardt continues, prices
having been driven to the 11-cent mark.
Sumatra. There is a brisk demand
for light Sumatra, but choice goods are
very scarce. Several sales took place
here this week.

general activity, and some compare
lively large sales have taken place. All
types are moving with freedom, both

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.

CDGEhION, w lS., Lee. ., 1IOJ.
AS for some weeks past the bulk of
the buying of the new crop continues
to be done by representatives of the
American Tobacco Co., who still have
their men posted in the growing dis
tricts and quietly taking over what lots
can be secured at prices that do not ex-
ceed an average of seven cents. There
is also little pick, : away by other
dealers at slightly improved prices,
though there is no especial activity
anywhere along the line.
The market for cured leaf has again
fallen into quiet lines. There is consid-
siderable trading in small way which
in the aggregate shows that business
is moving in fairly comfortable way,
but no large transactions have come to
notice. There is strong demand for
the cheaper grades which can scarcely
be met because such stock is already
pretty closely gathered in.
There are indications of another sea-
son of casing weather and if it should
come at this time considerable por-
tion of the crop might be removed from
the poles for stripping. The late warm
weather has helped the curing wonder
fully.
The shipments out of storage reach
800 cases from this market to ali points
for the week past.

hours she asked, but refused to stay

But thought of that mother made
me doubt my own judgment and dis

came to the conclusion there was an
element of doubt that Gillette was the

reached a climax yesterday when

ers, directed by Superintendent
Albes. ripped up thirty feet of the

The tearing up Of the track is said
to be an outgrowth of dispute be-

erty. The damage was repaired dur
