Col Jas. III. Pearson Writes Inter-
esting Letter About Tobacco
Markets In South :.

Col. James II. Peason, the well
known young auctioneer of Rich
inond, who is selling tobacco on
the North Carolina tobacco
breaks. writes the Daily Register
an interesting letter on conditions
there. Prices are ''way OFF, he
says and the growers are not
pleased. - ~
Col. Pearson will be heard on
the Richmond breaks during the
coming season. He will sell for
the Madison warehouse, What he
says of conditions in North Caro-
lima will be read with interest.
He says in part:
Enfield, N. c.. Sept. II. 20.
Mr.. S. NJ. Saufey,
Richmond, Ky.
Dear Sir
I am getting the paper all o. K.
and enjoy reading it after work
ing hard all day.
very unsatisfactory indeed. Far
mers bring 'fheir tobacco in and
let it pass over the sales and after
finding that it hasn't paid for
growing it they reject it, load it
on their wagons and haul it back
home, saying that if they have to
cut it out next year they will Just
keep this one at home and have
one to start on when tobacco gets
high enough to pay them for
growing it.
On September 9TH. | was on the
opening sale at Rocky Mount. N.
&c. There was but little tobacco
on the market and the buyers
didn't seem to want it at any price
hardly. On the 9Th our opening
sales, we sold 10000 pounds at
an average Of p IL cents per
pound compared to an average of
70 cents on opening sale last year.
Thursday, the 9th. it seemed as
though the farmers wouldn't sell |
any more tobacco at the prices
and we didn't have any sales, but
Friday morning they ran in with I
about 10000 pounds that dropped |
TO an average of 10 IA cents. The
buyers seem to- feel about as bad
1t as the farmers and warehouse
men. They say that they know
that the farmers can't produce it
for the money. A meeting has
been called at Wilson. N. C., Tues
day for all warehousemen and 9th
ers interested IN the. tobacco I'M
dustry, to discuss the situation.
Farmers are up in the air down in
this country, having assaulted
buyers and closed warehouses in
places.
There is some talk of closing
the warehouses for 80 days. / II
don't know what they viii decide
on.
i am scared for the Kentucky
growers, for I know that the con-
ditions that prevail with the high
price of land and labor.
1t is quite a curiosity to see the
farmers down here hauling their
tobacco with one steer and an old
fashion OK cart, and the way they
handle their tobacco. When II
can get time I am going to write
and tell you all about it and send
you some samples of the tobacco.

MEXICO CITY, June 2.-Provi-

is more critically i'll than first re-
ports indicated, it was generally be-
lieved here today.
Following his Inauguration yestef-
day afternoon, the new president was
scheduled to go to the presidential
palace for a reception, but was physi-
cally unable.
An operation for appendicitis may
be performed Thursday, it was said
today on good authority.
Beginning at ten a. m, 20. 900 troops
were to march through the city
streets as evidence of their support
of the new president.
General Alvero Obregon, now haV-
ing returned to his status of private
citizen. will be an onlooker. The day
will be observed as legal holiday
throughout the country.
De La Huerta became provisional
president Of Mexico in less than thirty
seconds yesterday afternoon. 1t took
no longer than that for him to take
the oath of office, promising to abide
by the constitution.
Owing to his illness, President De
La Huerta did not make an inaugural
speech.
+ On arriving at the house Of con,
gress, the president greeted the thou.
sands standing outside. He entered
the building through a lane of sol
diers of the presidential guard, wear
ing new uniforms made for the occa-
sion '.. ..s
