NEW YORK, Sept. 13, 1916.

This is undoubtedly buying market,
not selling one. The buying of the
new crop continues in the states men,
toned last week, and in Ohio, where
little buying had previously been done,
it has commenced. A curious thing
about the Ohio situation is that much
of the new Gebhardt was contracted
for before it was ever planted. AS one
prominent packer expressed it: eve
looked over the seeds, and they were
nice and fat and round, and looked as
if they would make good tobacco. So
we contracted for quite few hundred
acres. Some people told us that this
was foolhardy method of buying to-
bacco, but it is no more foolhardy~than
the methods that have been pursued in
Pennsylvania and Wisconsin this year,
and we will get our Ohio tobacco
cheaper than those who are buying it
now" So far as sales of old tobacco
are concerned, Water Street is in the
position of having nothing to report.
More tobacco is being sold at Lancas-
ter, Dayton and Edgerton than is being
sold in New York. In the past week
some sales of 1915 Pennsylvania have
been reported at 21 cents, record
breaking price. Porto Rico tobacco is
in demand and is moving as fast as it is
brought into the country. One big fac
tory is reported to be paying 163 cents
for table scraps. A year ago the price
was IA cents. Leaf.

LANCASTER, Pa, Sept. IL, 1916.
Possibly so per cent of Lancaster
county's crop has been contracted for,
though only small per cent has been
cut. The recent cold spell gave the
growers a spasm of anxiety, and its
effect has not entirely worn off, as it
seemed like a threat Of early frost
When it is considered that the normal
period of frost is very nearly here, the
growers can hardly be blamed for get
ting nervous. One severe frost, and it
would be goodbye to the tobacco. A
lot of the growers will undoubtedly
come to the conclusion that they had
better be on the safe side and cut early.
In the past week the buying has not
been rushed as hard as a little earlier,
probably because the agents Of the big
concerns now realize the fact that there

EDGERToN, WIS.,, Sept. %, 1916.

The most severe frosts that have oc-
Cured since 1883 visited this state on
the three successive mornings of the
18th to the 18th, which caught close to
40 per cent of the 1916 crop still stand
ing in the fields, and is destined to
cause serious financial losses to the
growers of close to million dollars.
The most of the fields outstanding have
since been harvested, but the leaves
are so scared and blistered as to unfit
them for binder purposes except in
some favored localities. The buyers
have since been pretty busy in the
country districts checking up their
contracts in an endeavor to learn what
proportion of their purchases have been
frosted, and making such adjustments
with growers as they are able to OBJ
tain. But for delays in the harvest by
rainy weather and shortage of help the
most of the ripened tobacco would have
been safely housed, but a considerable
portion of the crop needed at least
couple of weeks more to perfect it.
We learn also that the cold wave swept
on through the east and nearly half the
crop in Ohio is also frosted and possibly
Pennsylvania district as well. The out
outlook to manufacturers, therefore, is
that little relief from high prices may
be expected from the 1916 crop.
The holders of old leaf will doubtless
stiffen their prices in consequence, but
we learn of no transactions of import
ance.
The shipments out of storage reach
300 cases from this market to all points
since last report.

NEW YORK, Sept. 10, 1916.
Conditions in the leaf market do not
improve as regards lifting the anxiety
about the price limit of cigar leaf.
That last years Pennsylvania, infested
TO some extent with black rot, should
command in the local market from 21
cents to % cents does not contribute to
the encouragement of cheap filler leaf
after the present stock is exhausted,
not only in jobbers' hands but also in
the possession of manufacturers by the
tremendous Fall business certain to set
in. While trading in the market in all
types Of leaf has somewhat abated, d
busy atmosphere seems nevertheless to
hover over it, chiefly covering future
projects. Will the cigar manufactures
be able to pay the largely increased
prices for his raw material? This ques-
tion passes constantly from mouth to
mouth. In the meanwhile the packer
goes about the country districts grab
bing up every crop in sight, relying
that no matter what his investments
are he will not only find ready sale
but compensation in a sufficient ad-
vance price for the worry and anxiety
he is passing through just now in pre-
pairing for his future business. That
the manufacturer will have to come to
terms is not to be doubted as otherwise
he is likely to have to quit business.
No matter how we'll he may have pro-
vided himself with stock, the tremen-
dous demands on his product for the
holiday trade, which are as expectant
as any certainty can be, are sure to
completely exhaust it and leave him
stranded without any raw material ex-
cept such as the higher-priced new
crops may supply. Journal.

First and america Efficient"
THE CASE or PITzER.

1ONSIDER for a moment the case of Sanitary Off
Ger Pitze. The way Pitzer does. or does not, do
his duty was the %ostensible excuse for an attack made
upon him at a session of the Board Of Affairs Tuesday
Morning. BY Commissioner Lehman. That attack aroused
Mayor Bowen, who in his turn, said some things about
he 4 ILehman runs the affairs under his immediate SUI
peryision which, while they may not make much of an
impression upon Lehman. very much interested the tax
payers. But the engaging ~frankness which makes this
nesting stand out in bold relief from all others ended
rather abruptly under the soothing influence Of Commits
scner Barnes jingle about the good and bad in human
lind. Apologies were made all around and everything
was restored to loneliness except the professional reputation
q Officer Pitzer.
So far as any action of the Board of Affairs is concern
I'd that8is still hanging high for any one so inclined to shy
9 rock o. q criticism at. This in spite Of the fact that
Filter really is a thoroughly conscientious and efficient
officer. Without having any knowledge of the situation
that The public does not possess, W venture the opinion
hat If Pitzer were entirely at liberty to follow his own
helinasions the sanitary ordinances would be enforced to
he letter. 60
Lacklo 81 support on the part Of the men higher up" is
responsible for a large part Of the failure Of the police sys-
tsmi IN American municipalities.

CONDITIONS IMPROVE,

TO those who are familiar with the reports made BY
American consuls the stories told in this city by Luis
H.8Yanes. the Caracas merchant here on a business
visit about the way American exporters stand in their own
way with regard to the development Of trade in South
America had a familiar ring. Men who have devoted
much thought to that subject and who have sought earn
city for ways to build up a better understanding between
tis country and Latin America because Of the importance
h would have from the standpoint Of International politics
have thrown up their hands in disgust and declared that
he exporters of this country have no trade in Central and
South America because they do not deserve to have any.
But bad as it is. there are signs that a better day is
dawnins: The visit to this country of Mr.. Yanes is itself
~ indication Of that. Now that the ice has been broken

A REAL BAND.

WITH the ability to get to the kernel of things which
w is characteristic of The West Virginian's bright
young men. the reporter who wrote the story about
the fair which was published in yesterdays issue called
attention to the excellent music which was furnished by the
Greater Fairmont band.
If the rest of the community had not already noticed the
marked improvement which this musical organization has
shown in recent weeks they overlooked a decidedly obvious
thing. The Greater Fairmont band is now an ~organiza-
ton in which Fairmont may well feel abundant pride.
Much Of the credit for bringing this about is due, of
cent. but the musicians themselves deserve much praise.
They have been giving freely of the best that is in them
in a musical way.
