Cuban Cigar Makers
Still Out on Strike
American and British Dealers
Give Havana Manufacturers
Little announcement

HAVANA, April 30.-Apparently
there is little prospect of an early set
tlement of the strike of the tobacco
workers of Havana and Pinar del Rio
provinces, which has been on for nearly
two weeks and was called primarily
in sympathy with striking cigarbox
workers, who refused to accept pay on
piecework basis.
Representatives of the larger Tobacco
houses, where the men are on strike,
recently sent messages to dealers IN
the United States and England making
inquiry as to their attitude toward
higher prices to meet the demands of
the cigarmakers for 20 per cent in
crease in pay. A reply from one of
the most important firms in the United
States stated that increased prices for
Cuban tobacco would favor the Ameri-
can tobacco growing industry and be
ruinous for that of Cuba, and that
they could not continue to favor
Havana manufacturers with their
orders if the strikers succeeded in
forcing prices to the prohibitive point.
A message from the executive com
mittee of the British Chamber of Com
merce states that the British govern
ment has thrown on the market large
quantities of tobacco bought for the
army, and that, because of this sun
ply and high custom rates. higher
prices would force cancellation of
orders already placed for the Cuban
product.
