RAY RAILROAD
 WANTS RELIEF
First Application Under Recent Order of Corpora tiOn Commission is Re ccived; Tucson Switching Charge Hearing Friday

The Ray and Gila Valley railroad explained to the corporation commis- sion yesetrday in the form Df an af- fidaVit. that it only earned fiv" dol- lars q day Cn its passenger Susi- ness between Ray Junction and Ray. the length of the short railrOGd with a long name, and that under tla cir cumstances and considering tho ser vice it was bound to give to the pub lie, it is impossible for it to dn busi- ness under the provisions Of the three-cent fare bill and obtain q reasonable compensation A Further explanation was t. the effec; that the road is only six and fraction miles long. and that the net cost of running the passenger business each day amounted to some $40. The fare between Ray and Ray Junction is 90 cents.
 The corporation commission re- quired the affidavit as a condition precedent to the railroads obtaining temporary relief from the operation of the law as set forth in the recent order of the commission granting temporary relief. This is the first application and affidavit that has so far reached the commission, but it is expected that all the roads doing business exclusively in the state will shortly file like instruments with the commission.
 Next Friday morning in the offices of the corporation commission. if there is room enough, and in the su- preme court if there isn't. the switch ing charge case from Tucson against , the Southern Pacific railroad will be l heard. This is a public hearing at which any one having any idea on the subject is at liberty to attend , and express them.
 The cruX of the case is that the
 $. r. has been in the habit of charg 1 ing $250 per carload for the dcliV-
 cry of any car to the delivery switch
 of the recipient of the carloads ol
 freight Further the Southern Paci- fife has applied for the approval oi
 the commission to the charge of
 $250 against the recipient of freight 1 in carloads for the delivery to any industry exclusively served by tht
 Southern Pacific railroad when the
 car is received at Tucson over tho E. P and S W. lines.
 : This is q charge that has no coun-
 terpart in any other large city il
 Arizona, and the commission desire:
 to look into the facts in the case be fore granting their approval to th' I application.

PEOPLE HAVE LEARNED
 ABOUT NAVAJO BLANKETS
They Have Also Learned Where to
 Go After the Genuine.

Much more is known about Navajo blankets within the last few years that people formerly knew; when anything called a Navajo blanket was regarded as one and none of them were regarded very highly But with the demand for these blankets there came into the market the spurious blankets and some genuine but in ferior blankets made especially for the trade This manufacture is still going on.
 Balke's Big Curio store for years has been handling only the genuine Indian blankets and the best the Ma vajo Indians make. MT. Bake who is a trader of many years experience personally selects all the blankets he handles and his guaranty is back of every one he sells.
 That guaranty is that if at any time the day after or the year after or several years after, the purchaser wants his money back he can have it provided the blanket has been sub jected to nothing more than the usual hyear MT Bake knows that every blanket will be worth more next year than it is today.
 The blankets handled by the Bis Curio store are woven in the old h. dian way of native wool and the col bring is of vegetable dyes. The ] blankets with ordinary wear are prdc- 1 tically indistructible.
 i These are the kind of blankets for l Christmas gifts. They are sold
 cheaper at the Big Curio store than ! anywhere else. They may cost a lit
 tie more than the spurious or inferior
 blankets but they are far cheaper
 They are such blankets as the givers
 of them will never be ashamed o1
 having given.

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, Feb. 6, 1912.
Connecticut valley tobacco growers
are heavy losers from unusual causes =
tobacco thieves and bank failure. The
tobacco thief is something which the
farmer has not heretofore had to COM
bat with. He appears in the dead of
night with horse and wagon and car
ries off hundreds of pounds of tobacco.
Individual growers have lost hundr eds
of dollars worth of tobacco since the
new crop was harvested. Among the
losers were Oliver and William Thrall
of Windsor, Conn. The stolen leaf was
traced to the warehouse at which it
was sold, and the warehouse which
bought it in good faith, furnished de-
scription of the men who sold the to-
bacco. The men were arrested, ar
raigned in the Windsor court and held
for the March sitting of the grand
jury. The state police, cooperating
with town authorities, expect to break
up this kind of thievery.

EDGERToN, WIS, Feb. 16, 1912.
A few days of moderate weather, the
first since the new year when the froz-
en- bundles softened up enough to per-
nit of their examination, has given the
packers chance to see what kind of
goods they were receiving, prevailed
this week. Purchases are still being
received as fast as warehouse handling
will permit, but the prevailing COM
plant of heavy stems and high case to-
bacco is causing more or less friction
in settlements. Naturally buyers balk
at paying top prices for tobacco that
does not meet contract requirements of
packing condition, though very few re-
jections are made. A small amount of
buying of the remaining fraction of the
crop is being done, the following trans
actions coming to notice:
Torvald Smithback, ga at 8, 7&4c.
Ole Gyland, Ga at 8&4c.
T. 0. Lee, IA at 1880.
Ole Roam, IA at 8&4c.
There seems to be an active demand
in the line Of old goods, and several
transactions are noted. About 600cs of
10 leaf was secured by l. Lewis, a
Newark manufacturer, from local
packers. H. T. Sweeney sold about
10Ocs for the week and E. e. Hopkins
68cs of 10 BIS.
The shipments out of storage reach
656 cases and 13 car loads to all points
for the week. Since last report 81 car
loads have been received from outside
points FOR warehouse handling.

New York.
NEW YORK, Feb. 10, 1912.

Market conditions continue to be ac
tive. The demand extends to all kinds
of leaf, but chiefly to the shade-grown
and Havana. Transactions in the shade
grown remain as brisk as they have
been since the opening of the new year.
The finer grades will soon be in the
hands of the manufacturers. For the
Havana leaf there has also sprung up
an exceptionally lively demand. Old
stocks are being cleaned out quickly,
and there is not much haggling now
about price. The reason for the brisk
absorption of old Havana stock seems
to be realization of the conviction
that the new Havana crops will be late
in marketing. The activity in the leaf
market is somewhat in contrast with
the reported output of our cigar indus
try in January. All of our leading ci-
gar manufacturing districts, like the
Metropolitan, the 1st and 9th of Penn
sylvania, and the 1st of Ohio, show a
decrease in comparison with the output
of the first month of last year. The
reports of that decrease have come in
deed as surprise, as it was expected
that 1912 would be a more fruitful year
for our cigar industry than 1911 was.
AS, however, the decreases were but
small in number they may be ascribed
to the extremely severe cold weather
which prevailed nearly throughout the
entire extent of the country and which
naturally not only prevented smoking
in the open air but also factories from
getting out their orders That manu-
| facturers do not take the decrease as a
sinister omen for their business is pro
ven by their readiness to fortify them
selves for growing trade with an
early supply of their necessary raw

both of New York, each getting about
half. 1t cannot be stated authoritively
what price was paid, but it is under
stood that it was TIC, marked weight.
Various packers sold to Julius Marqu-
see of New York, who succeeded in
gathering up about 500 cases, and
Seisel & Tole sold to eastern and west
ern manufacturers, 200cs. Some other
small lots were sold, the total will run
we'll on toward 1000 cases. Some 1909
goods were also sold last week, these
going largely to local cigar manufac-
turerS.
While the cigar industry is by no
means what it should be, nor anything
like what the manufacturers would
have it, still it is beginning to give a
slight evidence of improvement.
Notwithstanding the bad weather
prevailing during the past week, the
buying of the new crop goes steadily
on. Prices instead of weakening have
stiffened. A good many sales were re-
ported at 113c and some at 12c, though
lie was the price generally paid. This
advance of price comes in the face of
the withdrawal from the field of repre-
sentatives of some of the big concerns,
on account of prices being too high.
Probably 60 per cent of thescrop has
already been contracted for, but not
that much has yet been stripped. Very
heavy deliveries have been made lately.
the growers being anxious to be rid Of
the responsibility of holding the goods.
The packers still complain that most of
the tobacco is not stripped clean.

NEW YORK, Feb. z, 1912.

A buying movement of more or less
important proportions has been started
in Ohio, particularly with reference to
the 1911 Gebhardt. The general belief
among the packers is that buying this
tobacco requires considerable care and
discrimination. The buyingamovement
in Pennsylvania continues, prices stiff
fening somewhat in spite of the with
drawal of number of the larger con-
Germs. Sixty or seventy per cent of
the crop has been taken. The binder
situation is growing more acute and
there are signs that the manufacturers
are awakening to that fact. Leaf.

LANCASTER, Pa, Feb. 5, 1912.

The heaviest selling in old goods that
has taken place in the Lancaster mar
ket for two months was done last
week, when upwards of 1000 cases of
1910 goods were disposed of. AS it
was generally believed that the local
packers had been pretty well cleaned
out of these goods, it naturally created
no little surprise when news of several
large sales were reported Harry Lam,

NOTE BOOK SKETCHES

Anyone not familiar with the tobacco
business has but faint conception of
what it costs to carry tobacco over
from year to year. A bunch of the
1906 crop was recently sold at what
might appear to be a good price-20
cents and yet the packer pocketed a
loss of over $40 box. The interest
charges alone on tobacco that cost or
iginally as much of the 1906 crop is at
least cent per pound each year. Fig
ure this for five years and then add the
cost of insurance, taxes, sampling and
storage and it can easily be seen how
these items will eat into the profits if
the investment is carried too long. 1t
is seldom that dealer can make any
money by carrying packing over more
than one season. The expense of pack
ing with a years interest, insurance
and storage added is about all a careful
dealer cares to invest in single pack
ing and to insure decent profit it must
be turned within the year.
Experiments are being conducted in
Connecticut with a new variety of to-
bacco seed found in Bermuda, from
which it is hoped to produce high
grade wrapper. The stalk grows to a
great height and contains from rs to 30
leaves. The reason this tobacco pre-
sents such beanpole cleanness is be-
cause it grows no suckers, merit
which all tobacco growers appreciate.
Of course, quantity at the sacrifice OF
quality is never desirable in tobacco.
Several thousand cigars have been
wrapped from the tobacco grown IN
1910, and the tobacco sampled by a
number of people and declared excel
lent. It has an even burn and has a
distinctive taste very agreeable to all
who have smoked it, and mahogany
color, all it's own 1t makes tough,
reliable wrapper, and one that will not
be cracked by being carried in the
pocket. 1t produces fine, light ash,
without sign Of "fiakep' Although
the experiments have been tried for
two years, the seed are not to be pass
ed out to other growers until one more
crop at least is grown. They are try
ing to produce an extra fine sun-grown
wrapper for New England. They are
displaying in the pains they have taken
to produce these crops praiseworthy
willingness to study new grades of to-
bacco, which does not takes it for
granted tkat quite everything that is
worth knowing about tobacco is al
ready known.
