WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN, WIS, July IA,

EDGERToN, WIS, July IA, 1911.
While local showers have fallen in
some of the tobacco growing sections
during the week, the need of more
moisture is apparent over the greater
portion of the state. The long heated
term has proven very trying to many
of the tobacco fields which are beginn-
ing to show the pinching effect of day
after day of hot burning winds, and yet
tobacco is standing up under such con-
ditions much better than most other
crops. The earliest fields show a dis
position to bud without the desired ex-
pansion of leaf. If general rains come
in a few days there is an excellent
chance for the crop yet.
The market for old leaf continues
along former lines, which means a
small business to meet the demands of
the trade as their needs appear. Two
more packings of 10 leaf have been
taken over by eastern manufacturers
of late, consisting of 600cs from San
ford ,Soverhill and about 300cs of T. E.
Welch, GAINESVILLE dealers.
The shipments out of storage reach
300cs from this market to all points for
the week past.

NEW YORK. July s, 191

NEW YORK, July s, 1911.
The weeks sizzling and broiling at
mosphere which made every physical
effort burden and which kept every
body confined to the utmost possible
cooling leisure was naturally not con-
ducive to any stirring business activ-
tiles in the leaf market. Whatever
trading was done was of the strictly
hand o-mouth kind. Buying and sell
ing, therefore, was only for immediate
needs. The only type of leaf that
seemed to be in fair demand was light
Sumatra, which is selling in spite of
the high price. Evidently manufactur-
ers are in need of the light wrapper
leaf which can be supplied by the new
Sumatra importations. And evidently
the manufacturers are also realizing
that they have to pay for that type OF
leaf the ruling price and that kicking
would not make it cheaper. SO they
graciously are commencing to submit
to this unavoidable condition. 1t isn't
the American manufacturer alone who
is craving for the light Sumatra. He
has this year very dangerous COM
petitor in the Austrian Reggie, which
as reported once before in these, col
umns, bought at one of the previous
inscriptions one of the best lots at a
stupendous figure. And the same Reggie
repeated the same thing at yesterdays s
inscription. They secured the entire
lot of H. D. Langkat, which was the
best lot offered, and which was coveted
by every American buyer but which
none of them got, as the Austrian Re-
gle overbid them ALL And with such 2
competitor making almost reckless bids
prices were soaring again at yester-
days inscription, which was the last
before the vacation. Naturally the
market cannot expect any lowering of
Snmatra prices this year. Journal.

LANCASTER, Pa, July 5, I5II.
Not for some years has the Lancas-
ter county tobacco crop started growth
under such favorable auspices as have
attended the crop now in the field.
Though planted two weeks late, there
are fields already showing plants with
leaves a foot long. Sufficient rain, but
not too much of it, and warm weather
have done their work, and the plants
have received a start now that WI Will
carry them through to the end. The
prediction is freely made by experts
that with sixty more days of fairly
favorable weather Lancaster county

The market has been very quiet so

That the cigar business in the Ninth
Pennsylvania District is holding its own
was evidenced in the monthly report OF
the Internal Revenue Department is
sued this week. 1t showed that the
output of cigars for the month of June
was over GA, 100000, substantial in
crease over the previous month, and an
advance of several millions over June
of 1910. While the revenue reports
show that the business is apparently in
healthy condition, there seems to be
a difference of opinion among the trade
on the situation.

PAGEANT CROWDS
ARE BEING WELL
PREPARED FOR
North Adams Cars to Run to
Pageant Grounds
SPECIAL GATE FOR AUTOS
Main Entrance Will Be Opposite En-
trance TO Grounds Of Mt. An
thony Country Club

The problem of preparing for the
large crowds which are expected to
attend the historical Pageant August
1916 is no small one, the question OF
transportation to the Pageant
ground being its most important
phase The management of the
throngs expected to arrive via the
Berkshire lines and the many expect
ed TO come here by the way of the
Bennington and Hoosac Valley rail
road, considered in the light of con
fusion OF cars which might result,
constituted in itself a large problem
for the committee in charge.
e. Q. Richmond, general manager
of the Berkshire lines, W. I. Nary,
superintendent of the North Adams
division and George r. Green, super
intendent of the Hoosick Falls
division were In town re-
Gently in conference with w. H..
Nichols of the transportation com
mittee and have arranged that all
cars coming into town on the Berk-
shire lines will run straight through
to the Pageant grounds The cars
from North Bennington and Hooslck
Falls will stop at the Soldiers Home
crossing near Clark's woods, the scene
of the Pageant No North Bennington
cars viii run into town during Pa
geant week but all passengers Will
transfer to the Berkshire line cars at
Soldiers Home crossing on their re-
turn to town. A number OF extra
cars will be held in reserve here in
Bennington 10 take the local crowds
to the Pageant ground and to bring
back the returning crowds. All cars
running to the Pageant ground will
be of the large design Of the cars on
the Berkshire lines The present
schedule will be closely followed and
no inconvenience will result to
those going or returning from North
Bennington or Hoosick Falls.
From the crossing to the Pageant
grounds there will be a string OF
lights for the convenience of those
attendlng the evening performances.
The main entrance will be immediate
ly opposite the entrance TO the Mt.
lAnthony Country Club al the cross
roads The entrances for automo-
biles and carriages will be further
along the road TO Old bennington and
will be Immediately opposite the
Country Club itself The road TO Old
Bennington which passes the Country
Club is being widened AT present for
the accommodation OF the automobi-
lists.
The entrance for performers in the
Pageant will be just beyond Clarks
bridge To exclude all others from
the use OF this entrance 1900 feet oil
canvas will be stretched from the
IWalloomsac river which runs along
the side of Clarks woods TO the main
entrance opposite the entrance to the
Country Club.

STATEHOOD BILL IN
SENATE CAUSED
MUCH DEBATE
Speeches Delivered on Arizona
and New Mexico
JUDGES RECALL DEBATED
Body Withholds Approval Of consti-
tutons Because OF Two Radical
Measures on Judiciary

Washington, Aug. S.-The Senate
took up yesterday for final action the
bill for the admission of New Mexico
and Arizona to statehood. BY previ-
Gus agreement. the bill will be voted
on before the close of this "legisla-
tive day" but this may mean several
days Indications last night were,
however, that the vote will be reach
ed today The test vote will come
on the Nelson amendment to the
House bill, allowing New Mexico to
become a state with its constitution
unchanged, while Arizona must strike
out the provision by which judges
can be reached. The House bill re-
quires that the voters of Arizona
shall take a vote on the judicial re-
call question before the territory is
admitted, while in New Mexico an eff
fort must be made by vote to change
the constitution adopted so as TO
make ii easier of amendment
Vigorous speeches in opposition to
the recall of judges were made yester
day by Senators Root of N. Y, Borah
of Idaho Nelson of MINI. and Craw-
ford of s d. Senator Poindexter of
Wash defended it, declaring that the
people of a state should have the
right to say what sort of consttu-
ton they desired, provided 1t is not
in conflict with the national constitu-
ton Mr. Root maintained that the
basis of the strength OF American
self-government was the "self-re
straint the people had placed on
themselves in the judicial system
adopted by the fathers OF the coun-
try" 81 believe" he said. that in
the long run the decisions OF the
American people are wise and sound /;
but they are so because the wisdom
of our fathers devised a system OF
government which prevents our peo-
pie from reaching their conclusions,
except after mature consideration
and after the passions of the moment
are excluded Our fathers believed
that among the virtues, that of self
restraint stands near the first ! do
not believe we are ready to say to
the Judge, You are to maintain the
great principles of justice, but you
must do so subject to recall and dis
grace for life II you happen to decide
against the will of the majority. :
After seven-hours' debate yesterday
the Senate recessed until this morn
ing. Among those still desiring t6
be heard are Senators Crawford o

and Bailey Of Tex.
