Election Deadlock
For Bishop Likely
AS Vote Draws Near
Effort TO Exclude Outsiders
From Protestant Episco-
pal Post To Be Made:
None by c a II q i d ates

Determined efforts will be made to
prevent the election of an outsider to
the Protestant Episcopal Bishopric Of
New York. A survey of the situation
shows every possibility of a deadlock.
because the adherents of the three men
most prominently mentioned for the
office insist that they viii vote for the
favorltes SO long as there is any pos
sibihty Of success.
Meantime the men most often talked
OF for the succession are making no
apparent efforts 70 win votes
The Rev. DR.. Ernest NJ Stires, rec
tor of St. Thomas's. left New York
after expressing a desire for the with
drawal Of his name. Except for emer-
gency parish duties he has not been
near the city since his vacation began.
He IS with his family at Lake George.
In his absence his friends have done
everything possible to strengthen his
chances.
The Rev. DR.. William 7. Manning,
rector of Trinity Parish, is at Seal
Haroor, Maine. His friends have been
busy, too, and they expect to poll a
very large vote. Dr.. Manning has de
clined several elections to bishoprics
and has given no indication Of his at
titude toward the coming election. Il
is believed by his supporters that he
would feel that the duties Of the Bish-
opric Of New York presented too strong
an appeal TO be resisted.
The Rev. DR.. Charles L. Slattery
is in Soph Ashheld, Mass. He is
rector Of Grace Church. He has not
been in the diocese as long as his
two rivals for the office. At first his
name was mentioned as possible
compromise. His supporters feel that
he can be elected. Some time ago it
was reported he had been elected Dean
OF the Cambridge Theological School.
Denial has been made that the actual
election took place; but the position
is understood to be DR.. Slattery's If
he gives any indication of desiring it.
His friends have urged him to make
no decision until after the diocesan
convention, which has been called for
September II, at Synod Hall.
Bishop Charles Sumner Burch, suf-
fragan, has been strongly urged by
the upstate parishes, and a large
vote for him on the first ballot is
expected.
The canvass at this time shows a
trend toward DR.. Slattery as a can
ddate upon whom the forces of DR..
Manning and Dr. Stires could agree
if it became apparent that their
favorites had no chance.

Cire a Thought
To Spring Street

CPRlNG STREETS sidewalks are the
- most crowded in the city. Not only
do thousands of pedestrians use them
but the narrowness Of the street
forces drivers and chautfeurs to run
their trucks on the sidewalks. The
street is so narrow that persons alight-
ing from the surface cars can step
right onto the sidewalk.
These cars are constantly obstruct-
ing the street and traffic jams result.
When a wagon stops to deliver its
goods il has to mount the curbstone
and draw up on the sidewalk; Pedes-
trains have either to cross the street
or wait.
whats needed here" says one of
the business men of the nelghborhood,
sis some sort of one-way street regu-
lation. One of the car lines ought
to be taken off Spring Street and di-
verted to some other street. Prince
or Houston streets would do"

CLEVELAND, O., Dec. 10, 19l

CLEVELAND, o., Dec. 10, 1919.
Leaf interests are among the first to
note a stiffening in price. This already
is in evidence in both Ohio and Penn
sylvania filters, according to j. Fryer,
of Jaskulek & Fryer. Likewise the
latest advices here are that the pros
poets for cheaper Connecticut tobacco
are mighty poor. This all may be said
to be due to the inroads upon material
by buyers during the last three weeks,
says Mr.. Fryer. 1T seems that buy
ers are willing to pay almost any price
in order to be sure of getting sufficient
material with which to meet their new
business, and even those who are not
so keen on paying fancy figures must
protect themselves, go the price goes
up. Another factor is that none of the
crops has been as big as expected, nor
as big as the trade really requires.
Strange as it may seem, the fact that
prices appear beyond what the average
iobber can afford to pay, there were
plenty of takers. The one satisfactory
feature, in sense, is that nearly all
material available is of the best grade,
as it seems the poorer grades are find
ing their way to foreign markets. So
the smaller jobbers are forced to nib
BILE in higher priced goods. We do not
look for an immediate advance in the
price of cigars here, but that will fol-
low at no distant date under cOntinn-
ance of present conditions.

NEW YORK, Dec. II, 1919.

Nothing of special interest has been
reported from the various country dis
tricts during the past week, although
buying of the unsold portions of the
crops continues at fairly active pace.
In Pennsylvania, where it is estin-
ated from 20 to Is per cent of the crop
remains unsold, buyers are quietly tour
ing the out-of- the-way sections, which
We're overlooked in the first big gen.
eral campaign, and picking up such
stocks as appeal to them at prevailing
prices.
A little more rapid movement of the
same character is being continued in
the Connecticut Valley, which is MAX
ing substantial inroads upon the re-
naming unsold portion of the 1919 Ha-
vana Seed CROP.
As yet, little interest has been mani
tested in the new Ohio crop, packers
being pretty completely occupied with
the buying of the 1918 and. the solution
of the very stringent labor shortage,
which has greatly hampered warehouse
operations.
In commenting upon conditions in the
local market, Water Street packers and
dealers sum up the situation very brief
ly by stating that there is very
wholesome and continuous demand
for all types of desirable domestic
leaf stocks Of certain type. The only
complaint heard is that some types of
domestic leaf are so greatly depleted.
The most noteworthy feature of mar
ket interest is the growing strength of
the demand for old domestic filters,
which is taken as an indication that a
rather pronounced activity in this COM
modify may be expected within the
very near future.
ANY hope of the early development
of trade between Holland and Germany
seems also to be definitely checkmated
by the tremendous disadvantage in the
rate of exchange and the disinclination
on the part of the Dutch merchants to
extend large credits to the Germans in
the face of the present unsettled econ
omic and political conditions in that
country.
In short, to quote one important
Water Street exporter, the export
bubble, so far as the cigar leaf tobacco
business is concerned, seems to have
burst and. disappeared, with a COM
pleteness which only bursted bubble
can achieve. LEAF.
