WILL TRY TENT-GRoWN LEAF
Connecticut .alIey Tobacco Raisers Revive Enthusiasm for lt-Re-
 calls Experience.

Springfield, Mass.-The revival of the tent-grown tobacco proposition on large scale in the Connecticut valley recalls the disastrous experience of farmers and others seven or eight years ago The present assertion of promoters of shade-grown tobacco en- terprises Is that, prof1ting by the past, experts have succeeded in producing a strain of. wrapper leaf that defies competition, that this tobacco is bet ter and cheaper than Sumatra tobac- co, that it passes readily for high grade of Havana leaf and is In great demand for wrapping clear Havana cigars.
 The prediction that upward of three thousand acres of tobacco will be raised under cloth in the Connecticut valley this year probably insures a crop of suffic cient size to determine in a single season whether the tent grown tobacco advocates actually have overcome the defects which characterized the crops of 1902 and 1903.
 In the last few years the attention of the shade, grown contingent has been concentrated on Cuban tobacco. The Connecticut Tobacco Corporation, of East Granby, has raised 15O acres of the Cuban tobacco under cloth and the leaves have proved Al wrapper stock. One or two smaller companies have also raised satisfactory crops.
 That important interests believe Cuban tobacco is adaptable to the Connecticut valley is evidenced by the entrance of the American Sumatra Tobacco company. and dozen small Ter syndicates have completed ar engagements to raise crops of from 50 to 150 acres.

 T am all confused muttered, and beat retreat into the dining room. There, in the friendly light, we could at least see each other, and I think he was as much impressed by the fact that I had not undressed as l was by the fact that he had, partly. He wore a hideous dressing gown of Jimmy's, much too small and his hair, parted and plastered down in the early even ing, stood up in sort of brown brush all over his head. He was trying. to fiatten it with his hands.

The deer got out o1 US inclosure by breaking the fence, anu a search was made for 1t by hutsers and his employees.

 You must not go," said. with des- perate firmness. "He-he is probably in very dangerous state just now. We-I-locked him in."
 The Harbison man grinned and then became serious.
 Why don't you tell me the whole thing?" he demanded. You've been in trouble all evening, and-you can trust me, you know, because l am a stranger! because the minute this crazy quarantine is raised am off to the Argentine Republic" (perhaps he said ChilD "and because I don't know anything at all about you. You see, have to believe what you tell me, having no personal knowledge of any of you to go on. Now tell me-whom have you hidden in the cellar, besides the policeman?"
 There was no use trying to deceive him: He was looking straight into my eyes. So I decided to make the best of bad thing Anyhow, 1t was going to require strength to get Bella through the coal hole with one arm and restrain the policeman with the other.
 Come" I said, making a sudden resolution, and led the way down the stairs
 He said nothing when he saw Bella, for which l was grateful. She was sit ting at the table, with her arms in front of her. and her head buried in i them. And then I saw she was asleep. Her hat and veil laid beside her, and she had taken off her coat and draped it around her. She had rummaged out cold pheasant and some salad and had evidently had little supper Supper and nap, while I worried my self gray-headed about her!
 "She-she came in unexpectedly something about the butler" explain ed under my breath. "And--she doesn't want to stay. She is on bad terms with--with some of the people upstairs You can see how impossible the situation is"

A MIqhty Poor Joke.

When they are restrained by obligation or environment they be- come a little overkeen at bridge, or take the wrong sables, or stuff a gold backed brush into a huff at a recep- ton. You remember the ivory dress ing set that Theodora Bucknell had, fastened with fine gold chains? And the sensation it caused at the Buck nell cotilion when Mrs. Van Fire went sweeping to her carriage with two feet of gold chain hanging from the front of her wrap2
 But Anne's pearl collar was differ ent. Tn the first place, instead of three or four hundred people, the sus- picion had to be divided among ten. And of those ten, at least eight of us were friends, and the other two had been vouched for by the Browns and Jimmy It was horrible mix-up. For the necklace was gone-there couldn't Se any doubt of that---and although, as Dallas said, 1t couldn't get out of the house, still, there were plenty of places to hide the thing.
 The worst of our trouble really originated with Max Reed, after all For 1t was Max who made the silly wager over the telephone, with Dick Bagley. He bet five hundred even that one of us, at least, would break quarantine within the next 24 hours, and. of course, that settled it. Dick a man who owns a newspaper heard him and called up the paper Then the paper called up the health office, after setting up a flaming scare-head, Will Money Free Them?

 It was almost three when the house settled down-nobody mad any night clothes, although finally, through Dal- las, who gave them to Anne, who gave them to the rest, we got some things of Jimmy y's-and l was still dressed. The house was perfectly quiet, and after listening carefully, I went slow ly down the stairs. There was light in the hall, and another back in the dining room, and got along without any trouble. But the pantry, where the stairs led down, was dark, and the wretched swinging door would not stay open

Claus A. spreckles Tells Committee
How Sugar Trust Stockholders
Were @Buncoed.o

NEW YORK. July 22.-How the
stockholders OF the sugar trust were
MIXED" OF 100000 for the indIvid-
ual benefit OF the late Claus A.
Spreckles; Theodore A. Havemeyer.
III. o. Havemeyer and John K. Searles.
the three latter the guiding spirits or
the trust, was related today by Claus
A. Spreckels. son OF the California
sugar king. He Is now president or
the Federal Sugar Refining Co., or
Yonkers, N. Y, and was the principal
witness at today's session OF the Hard
wick congressional investigating COM
mittee.
The trust and my fathers compan-
les, especially the Federal Refining
Co.. of Philadelphia. fought a ruinous
war from 1888 to 1892" he said. Then
came truce and father agreed to sell
as per cent of his control OF the FEEDER
nj company to the trust. But when
he came to New York he found that
the purchase was to be made by the
two Havemeyers and Searles on val
uation of 100000 for the entire
plant.
The reason for the individual purs
chase came to light some months later
when the stockholders of the Amer.
lean Sugar Refining Co. voted to pay
$40 100000 cash for the property and
II was unloaded on them at that
figure"
Spreckels, who was the manager OF
the Philadelphia property told how he
was forced from the management by
Searles. The latter. he said. demand
ed that the production OF the plant
be reduced and the prices OF its pro-
duct advanced. When he refused
Searles told him Havemeyer said:
The only way 10 make money In
these days Of strenuous competition is
to keep your production down to the
limit and force up your prices to the
limit OF what you can get"
Il refused to have anything TO do
with such methods" said Spreckels.
and they made trouble between my
father and myself which compelled
me to quit my position"
Spreckels explained at length the
"wrecking methods" pursued by the
trust agents after he established his
new plant at Yonkers In 1902. His
machinery was broken; syphons were
injected into the tanks OF liquid
sugar during the night and the product
ran down the sewers: filth was put in
the barrels OF the finished product and
lis employesw ere tempered with. Fin
ally he discharged all employees and
got some he could trust and the trou-
bles ended. He refused to pay on the
men he dismissed and he threw a
lawyer. who came with demand for
the money. out Of the office. Spreckels
promised to give the names OF the
men he fired and the lawyer to the
committee SO that IL can examine them
