LANCASTER, Pa, Oct. 27, 1915.
Leaf and cigar circles are doing nice
ly. The cigar industry is showing such
lusty strength that nobody any longer
thinks anything about possible drop
ping off in business. The tone is
healthy. The trouble just now with
many factories is that they are unable
to fill their orders, and, what is more,
they cannot do any better than they
are doing, for they are unable to get
cigarmakers. They are scarce. A few
small factories have recently 4started
up, but the difficulty Of getting hands
limits new enterprises. The South and
West are sending in orders very liber-
ally for goods. The season is hsre for
receiving holiday orders, and it will
puzzle lot of the manufacturers to
get out their orders, as they are handi-
capped on current business. Retailers
are sending in all sorts of hurry-up no
tees, fairly keeping the manufacturers
on tenter-hooks. But on top of all
there comes the good word that collec-
tions are getting easier.
Better business for the manufacturer
means correspondingly improved trade
for the leaf dealer, too, and the pack
ers are now once more coming into
their own. The cleaning up of the old
goods in the local warehouses indicates

New YoRK, Oct. 80, l!

NEW YORK, Get. 80, 1915.
& The leaf market is keeping up re-
markably well. Not only in activity
but also in spirit of bIoyaacy. Old
stocks of every type and grade are fast
disappearing and while publicity about
transactions i'm the new crops is care
fully withheld it has nevertheless leak
ed out that a great volume of last
years crops held by packers has already
been contracted for before they have
even become regularly sampled. The
.lsfge manufacturing concerns are nat
Ia aSly well aware Of the failure of most
of this year S seedsssf crops, hence they
did not lose any tffpe in entering on
negotiations to- sec1re H their share
whenever the stock would be deliver
able The continued brisk movement
in Pennsylvania aptly illustrates this
condition. In consequence more op-
feeling for profitable disposal
OF all old stocks has seized our market.
There cannot be the asast doubt that
Ataepriee advance is bound steadily to
rise the more the season progresses
and the bigger, the demand will make
itself felt after the exhaustion of the
supply in the hands of the manufactur-
ers during the present brisk movement
in, the output of cigars. The causes so
propitious both for the absorption and
price advance of the old seed stocks are
also working in the direction of faster
and more advantageous trading in old
Havana leaf. The limited and partially
defective quality of the new crop has
brought into brisk movement many
vegas that laid dormant for the past
two years in the bonded warehouses.
Lots of 1913 1914 crops have suddenly
prices which were thought to be pro-
hibitive at their first offerings in the
market. Tn view of all these occur
rences the leaf market seems to be
fully justified in the confidence of its
present strong and healthy position. =

NEW YORK, Oct. 27, 1915.

Business continues fair with the deal
ers in domestic cigar leaf tobacco. The
rapid absorption of the desirable por-
ton of the old and new Pennsylvania
that is lying around has been the feat
ure of the week. This began about a
month ago, with the purchase by large
packers of the holdings Of Lancaster
dealers, and has been continued by the
manufacturers, a number of whom have
bought heavily in the past week, and
now it is said that good Pennsylvania
is scarce This movement began so
suddenly that it took the trade un-
awares, and it was not until several
thousand cases had changed hands that
the holders of Pennsylvania woke up to
the fact that there was scramble for
their goods, which for the past few
years has been drug on the market.
In fact, most of them got their first
information from The Tobacco Leaf
three weeks ago. 1t is predicted that
the manufacturers will find their recent
purchases very valuable property. =

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN, WIS.,, Nov. 5, 1915.

EDGERTON, WIS.,, NOV. D, 1910.
Another week of delightful fall
weather has passed that is putting the
finishing touches on the curing OF the
tobacco crop, a good deal of which
could be safely stripped when damp
casing days come.
There is no movement developing in
the new crop except on stemming
price basis, nor is there much hope for
market opening until some portion of
the crop is in the bundle and its merits
examined.
Old leaf is selling more freely than
for some months past in the eastern
markets, we are told. Aside from a
big sale said to be of million pounds
to Holland exporters, Mr.. Carroll, leaf
buyer for H. Fendrich, Evansville, md,
manufacturer, has added quite extern
sively to his holdings of Wisconsin leaf
again this week, including the 6OOcs
packing of Ia of the Greene Tobacco
Co at GAINESVILLE. Mcintosh Bros. pur-
chased 24cs crop of ID Of Herman
Collins.
Sampling of last seasons packings is
now we'll along. There is some clean
ing to be done but generally the tobac-
co is turning out sounder than for sew
eral years past.
The shipments out Of storage reach
about 700 cases and five cars of bundles
from this market to all points since
last report.

early buying of the 1916 crop. The
weather has been perfect for the cur
ing of the crop ever since it was housed
and packers who have been out looking
at it say it is coloring nicely, much
more satisfactorily in fact than was
the case with the 1914 crop. But those
who have examined it say the leaves
are thin, as is to be expected from to-
bacco grown during very wet season,
and such tobacco will not make the
best filters. -

The death knell for the tobacco pool
for the 1916 crop was sounded at re-
cent meeting of the American Society
of Equity in the Owensboro district,
when not enough interest was taken in
the proposition to put it ever. The ex-
perience OF some of the pools in differ
ent parts of the state has not been at
all satisfactory, three or four years in
some cases being required to sell the
tobacco. There are indications that
the pooling of tobacco in Kentucky is
nearing its end 1t was at the incep-
tion of the movement to pool tobacco
in this state eight or ten years ago
that all the night riding began.

Susie rose to 90 and elaine followed
her to the door. No sooner had ahe
gone than the Cluiching Hand came
out from behind the curtains. He gazed
about a moment, then, moving over 70
the safe about which the two girls had
been talking. stealthlly examined t.
He must have heard someone com
ing. for with a gesture Of hate at the
safe itself, as though he personided u,
he slipped back Of the curtains again.
Elaine had returned, and as she sat
down at the desk to go over some pa
pers which Bennett had left relative
to settling up the estate the masked
intruder stealthily and silently with
drew.
"A package for you. Miss Dodge"
announced Michael later in the eve
ming, as Elaine, In her dainty evening
gown. was still engaged in going over
the papers. He carried It In his hands
rather gingerly.
~Mr. Kennedy sent It, ma'am. He
says It contains clues, and viii you
please put It In the new safe for him"
Elaine took the package eagerly and
examined t. Then she pulled open
the little round door Of the globular
safe.

Is as cold as Ice"
1T is, ma'am," answered Michael
She closed the safe, and, with a
glance at her watch, set the time lock
and went upstairs to her room.
No sooner had Elaine disappeared
than Michael appeared again, catlike,
through the curtains from the drawing
room, and, after a glance about the
dimly lighted library, discovering that
the coast was clear. motioned to a fig-
ure hiding behind the portieres.
A moment and Clutching Hand him
self came out.
He moved over to the safe and
looked It over. Then he put out his
hand and touched IT.
"Listenl" cautioned Michael
Someone was coming, and they
hastily skunk behind the protecting
portieres. It was Marie. Elaine's maid.
She turned up the lights and went
over to the desk for a book for which
Elaine had evidently sent her. She
paused and appeared to be listening.
Then she went to the door.
"Jenningsl" she beckoned.
What Is Il, Marie?" he replied.
She said nothing, but as he came up
the hall led him to the center OF the
room.
'Listeni / heard signs and groansi"
Jennings looked at her a moment,
puzzled, then laughed you girlsl"
he exclaimed. Il suppose you'll always
think the library haunted now"
"But, Jennings, listen" she per
sisted.
Jennings did listen. Sure enough,
there were sounds, weird, uncanny. He
gazed about the room. It was eerie
Then he took a few steps toward the
safe. Marie put out her hand to It and
started back
why, that safe is all covered with
cold sweat" she cried with bated
breath.
Sure enough, the face Of the safe
was beaded with dampness. Jennings
put his hand on 1t and quickly drew Il
away, leaving a mark on the damp
ness.
'W-what do you think OF thatT" he
gasped
"Pm going to tell Miss Dodge" cried
Marie, genuinely frightened.

He looked cautiously into the room.
Apparently there was nothing.
It had been about the middle OF the
morning that an express wagon had
pulled up sharply before our apart
ment.

Of the expres5men, descending with

Jensen muttered: WE'LL guess It

They took the cabinet of the wagon
and carried It upstairs. Jensen opened
our door, stiIl grumbling, and they
placed the heavy cabinet in the living
room.

tested Jens, signing nevertheless.
Scarcely had the sound Of their
footballs died away in the outside hall
way when the door Of the cabinet
slowly opened and a masked face pro
truded, gazing about the room.
It was the Clutohing Handl
From the cabinet he took a large
package wrapped in newspapers. As
he held It. looking keenly about, his
eye rested on Elaine's picture. A mo-
ment he looked at It, then quickly at
the fireplace opposite.
An idea seemed to occur to him.
He took the package to the fireplace,
removed the screen and laid the pack
age over the andirons with one end
pointing out into the room.
Next he took from the cabinet a
couple Of storage batteries and a coil
Of wire. Deity and quickly he fixed
/ them on the package.
Meanwhile, before an alleyway
across the street and further down
the long block the express wagon had
stopped.
Having completed fixing the bat

the wires along the holding on the
wall overhead, from the fireplace un-

about the room, then noiselessly moved
to the window and raised the shade.
Quickly he raised his hand and
brought the fingers slowly together.

Big Rather Killed.

Mr. w N Clarkson, a progressive
farmer of the Heinemann section,
reports to us that while cutting hay
&c day last week the machine be-
came so badly clogged that the cut
ting blades refused to vibrate. The
driver, seeing that a quantity of hay
was clogged into the machinery, was
about to put his hand in to remove
it when he heard a peculiar noise,
which proved to be that of a large
rattlesnake caught in one of the
blades. About twelve inches of the
serpent's body was projecting up
right through the hay and, being in
severe pain. was stri king furiously
about him. Mr. Clarkson says the
noise of the rattles probably saved
his driver from being bitten. The
snake, when killed, measured about 5
feet and carried a bunch of II rat
ties and a button, which, according
to theory, indicates that the snake
was about Is years old.

Says Simple Laxative
Better than Castor Oil.
Case Of Chronic Constipation Yields TO
Mild Laxative Compound.

Writing from The House of the
Good Shepherd, at Sunnyside Ave
and 5Oth St, Seattle, where she is the
guest of her lifelong friend the
Reverend Mother, Mrs Mary Austin,
widow of a wealthy San Franciscan.
who lost everything in the fire of
1906, says she experienced speedy
relief from the use of DR. Caldwell's S
Syrup Pepsin and that she found
this gentle. pleasant-tastlng laxative
more effective than several doses of
castor oil.
The active principles of several
laxative herbs are combined in DR.
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin to act on
the elipinative organs in an easy,
naturaY way, without gripping or 9TH
er discomfort. Its freedom from OPT
ate or narcotic drug of every de-
scription, combined with its gentle
action and positive effect, make it
the ideal laxative for family use.
Druggists everywhere sell it for fifty
cents a bottle.
