AFTER BULGE IN
CARRIER SHARES
Nv LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK. Aug. 5 GNSo.
The stock market Quoted down to-
day after extending Wednesdays
advance at the start under the
lead of rail shares. Rails, rail,
equipments. utilities and coppers
were generally behind plus signs.
Motors, steels and merchandising
shares were inclined to lag.
Gains in the carrier section OF
the market were limited to less
than a point, following the runup
of l to 2 Yesterday. Light profit
taking made an appearance mid
way through the first hour. but
this was fairly well absorbed by
rail shares.
Such pivotal issues as Bethle-
hem, United States Steel, Chrysler
and General Motors were frac-
. tionally under the previous close.
Equal-sized gains were registered
by Anaconda and Kennecott in
. the coppers. American Water
Works and Electric Tower and
Light in the utilities, and Philip
Morris in the tobaccoS.
Sears. Roebuck and American
Smelling were particularly firm,
each advancing better than a
point at one time. Mack Truck
was a weak specially, losing more
than a point.

Cigarette Outlook Is Bright
But Snuf-Not So Good

With cigarette and cigar demand
maintaining its upward trend, com.
panies in these two divisions should
report higher earnings in 1887, &C.
cording to Poor's Investment Ad.
viSory Service.
Despite prevailing high raw ma.
terial costs, cigarette manufactur,
ers are especially well situated
due to the advance in prices last
January. A less favorable outlook,
however, exists for snuff and man
ufactured products, the report says
adding:
Demand for tobacco prod
ucts revealed divergent trends
for the first six months of 1887.
Approximately $4,000, ZOO, 900 Gig
aretteS were withdrawn from do
mesticS warehouses during the
period, an increase of 8 per cent
over the corresponding 1886
period. A similar advance was
recorded by cigars. with those
selling over 8 cents registering

gains as much as So per cent.
Manufactured tobacco, however,
declined 2.6 per cent to approx
imately 151,OOO,OOO pounds,
while snuff, at about 1872, 100000
pounds, was off 5.S per cent.
BASED on figures to date, 165
billion cigarettes will be pro-
duced this year Ia new high
while 5,6OO,OOO, 900 cigars will be
manufactured, or more than in
any year since 1880. Production
of both snuff and manufactured
tobacco this year, however. is
expected to be below the depreS-
sion lows.
indications are, the survey
added, that tobacco prices on
the 1878 crop will be steady
to slightly lower. According to
the July crop report of the De
partment of Agriculture, some
100000 acres Of tobacco will be
harvested in the coming season."

For years South America pictured
the United States as a big monster
ready to crush little nations. However,
reviewing the circumstances around the
building Of the Panama Canal it is not
peculiar that such feeling existed.
But in recent years, especially just late
ly, the United States through its Sec
retary of State Cordell Hull, has been
able to build reciprocal trade treaties.
That no nation can live by itself is an
established fact and the United States
needs the trade of the South American
countries. MIR. Hull in his recent trip
to South America was able to &C
complish much in building friendliness
and trade. He is remarkable man
and has studied tariffs for years. Mrs.
Curtis mentioned the recent article in
