DYNAMITE AT HOME
OF ANDREW CARNEGIE
Iron Masters Mansion in Fifth
AyeYT1e

NEW YORK, June 24-George Ma
lone, a Holmes patrolman, on duty out
side the home of Andrew Carnegie at
93d street and Fifth avenue, found
three sticks of dynamite outside the
iron master S house at II clock last
night and carried them to the East
8Sth street station, where he turned
them over to the lieutenant.
Pieces of Chinese punk were attach
ed to the sticks.
Malone said he had no idea how they
had come where he found them. He
had seen no one pass and there was
no one in the neighborhood when he
stumbled upon the explosives.
The police were not inclined to be-
lieve that the sticks We're placed there
with any intent to injure Mr.. Carne-
gle. The latter is in Bar Harbor now,
and they argued that any one anxious
to do him an injury certainly would
keep sufficiently well posted on his
movements to know that he was not
even in the city.
At the time of the attempt to dyna-
mite st. Patrick cathedral, however,
the police recalled that threats were
made by the dynamiters that they
would demolish not only the churches
but the palaces of the wealthy along
Fifth avenue, naming those of Mr.
| Carnegie and the Rockefellers, father
and son. Detectives set out at once
on the theory that the dynamite last
/ night might have been placed by mem
bers of the same gang, and Owen
Egan head of the bureau of explosives
1 took up the case.

SECRETARY OF STATE
Recess Appointment Announced from

Popular.

WASHINGTON, June "a. - Robert
Lansing, who as counselor of the state
department has advised President Will

pursued by the United States toward
belligerent governments since the out
break of the European war, was named
yesterday as secretary of state to sue
coed William Jennings Bryan Few
appointments in recent years have
given such widespread satisfaction in
the national capital. Mr. Lansing is a
lifelong Democrat, but he has devoted
his time to international law and
diplomacy, and is as popular with for
mer Republican officials as with his
colleagues. Members of the cabinet
who talked with the President on the
subject were unanimous in their recon-
mendatien that he should be appoint
ed. Col. E. NJ. House and other close
personal friends of the President, ad-
vised the selection, and Mr.. Bryan
himself, although not consulted, is un-

Official announcement of the selec-

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, Apr. 6, 1915.
Spring work is we'll under way in the
Connecticut valley tobacco belt To-
bacco seed is sprouting in the kitchens
of hundreds of growers, and the time
for sowing seed beds under glass Or
cloth is at hand. The season, while
perhaps not backward, can hardly be
called advanced.
Mixed opinion prevails concerning the
probable 1915 New England tobacco
acreage. There is certain to be not
able increase in the shaded tobacco
area. There are even indications that
the additional acreage may be danger
ously near an unhealthy jump, espec-
tally as son1ef Of the new acreage will
be grown by'nlen who have had only
moderate experience in Shadegrown.
The increase in the Havana Seed acre
age will be relatively smaller than in
Shadegrown, and it would not be sur
prising If there was some decrease in
the amount of Broadleaf set out. Late
prices are known to have been decid-
edly unsatisfactory to Broadleaf grow

NEW YORK, April 10, 1915.
The market this week was mostly
interested in the examination of the
new Sumatra, the first shipments of
which arrived the latter part of this
week. The crack lots bought by our
American importers show up exceed
ingly we'll. They are of very light tex
ture, silky and Of great yielding ca
pacity. 1t is reported, however, that
while the quality and fancy lots of the
inscriptions are as fine as there ever
was in any Sumatra crop, the lower
grades are falling off considerably and
the fancy lots will be but limited in
quantity. The offices which could show
the new arrivals of Sumatra were
crowded by prospective buyers and it
may be assumed that those fine lots of
Sumatra will soon be in possession of
consumers. In other lines the market
was rather quiet, with the exception Of
the shade-grown leaf which is still in
steady demand. The spring, which
seems to have set in for good now, is
likely to have reviving effect on our
cigar industry and the leaf market is
sure to profit from such an event in
due time. The improvement in the gen
eral condition of the country is not yet
up to expectation, but it could hardly
be delayed much longer. journal.

hANCASIER, IA, Apfll {, 1910.
Until recently it was taken for
granted that the 1915 tobacco acreage
would be considerably below the IA, ZOO
acres set out last year, but members
of farmers clubs express the opinion,
based on reports from all parts of the
county, that the number of acres that
will be planted this spring will be lit
tie, if anv, short of last years acreage
Some will raise less and others more
than last year. The authorities quoted
set IA, 900 acres as about the right fig
ure for this county. Many growers are
now making their seed beds, and the
bulk of the growers will sterilize the
beds.
Over 20 per cent of the 1914 crop is
still unsold. Growers who have held
onto their crop until long after the
usual selling time, in the hope of get
ting higher prices, are now selling at
two and three cents a pound less than
what they could have got for it two or
three months ago. Some claim that
the best of the crop has been already
sold, but this claim is discredited by
the fact that a good many of the best
known growers have their tobacco still.
Numbers who could have readily got 10
cents early in the season are now will
ing to take 8, but can't get it. A prom
inent packer told the writer q few days
ago that he could buy all he wanted of
the best tobacco at 63 cents.
The cigar industry is not quite as bad
as it was, but the Improvement has
been so slight as to be unimportant.
