Despite the fact that considerable to-
bacco is unsold, this will not have a
tendency to decrease the acreage in the
Connecticut Valley this year, it is
learned from reliable sources. It seems
certain, however, that there will be no
material increase in Shade production.
It is generally conceded that the 1891
production can be raised from 25 to 80
per cent cheaper than the two preced-
ing years. Prices of commercial fertil-
izer have been slaughtered, the result
being big market for it.

The Lloyd George of Egypt"
IBy Associated Press. |

london. Nov. !3.-Major Barnes. has Il very
high opinion Of Said Iasha ZaGloul, the
Nationalist leader in Egypt. He describes him
as the Lloyd George OF Egypt" and says
that for the government ito ignore him in
our negotiations about Egypt is simply to
deliberately pursue a policy OF disaster"
With several members OF Parliament. Major
Barnes recently went 10 Egypt at the request
of the Egyptian parliamentary party TO study
turned to London.
What was happening in Egypt. he said, was
undoubtedly an "outburst Of the national con-
seriousness. From the highest to the lowest
he added. the desire for independence has
become the predominant national feeling.
I'VE travelled hundreds Of miles on Egyp-
tan soil. and saw and heard hundreds or
thousands OF Egyptian people. and the unani-
nous conclusion we have come to is that if
ever there was a man who represented the
soul OF n nation that man is Zagloui Pasha.
we also found that there was no anita Conjsm
between the Egyptian people and the british
people. The reverse Is the case. II was said
to us over and over again. We want the
British people in Egypt. but as our friends,
rot as our masters; as our guests. not as
our rulers
Said pasha Zasloni, as head OF the Ma
campaign for independence from British rule
in that country. He headed a mission which
went to Paris in an effort to obtain n hearing
from the peace conference after the world
war. Last year he formed an Egyptian dele
cation to London 10 advocate Egyptian indie
pendence. He has refused to acccp, a British
protectoratc.
He was formerly Minister OF Justice in tho

These two great captains of the steel in

lowed a new era will have dawncd. and in
dustrial disorders and paralyzing strikes
and lockouts will become >gratifyingly in
frequent.
The Chicago packers have been facing the
same postwar problems that have ruinously
affected other ries. They have been
paying high wages. their overhead has in
creased tremendously, and they have been
compelled to pass their increased costs on
to the consumers. who, in a period when
the trend of living costs should be down
ward. have felt the financial pinch. The
packers had no remedy for high costs cX-
ccpt in a reduction of wages that had been
fixed on IA wartime standard. In all frank
hess they placed the matter before their
employees and asked them TO look the situa-
tion Squarcly in the face. The employees
did so. Their plant committees canvaSsed
the situation. perceived the righteousness of
the request that they submit to wage re-
duc,ion and promptly notified their employ
crs Of their decision.
The result is that the wage cut. first eff
fective in all the plants Of Armour e Co,
will be accepted in the plants of all the
other packers. There will be no disturb
anCe. and the wage reduction, coming on
top OF a 10 per cent rate cut announced
by the railroads, should be reflected soon
i'll lowered prices to the consumers. This is
the first instance in the packing industry
Of a conference between employers and
employees resulting in tho acceptance by
the latter OF a wage cut without protest,
and if it be generally significant OF a better
understanding between capital and labor
il will be j~Oyfully received by a nation
which only needs that understanding to
bring about an era OF unprecedented in
dustrial activity.
