The Tobacco Market.
Seed Lear and Havana fur tlie Week End
ing May 7, 10 A. St.
V. S. Toducce Journal.
Connecticut of the '80 crop assumed a
role in our market this week, nearly 1,000
cases of seconds (without fillers) finding
buyers at, it is reported, 11 cents. These
seconds at least have the appearance of
thorough soundness, something the sec
onds of a few preceding Connecticut crops
could net beast of. Outside of the 1,000
cases mentioned, no ether '80 stock
changed hands. , A canvass for opinions
among these manufacturers who have
already inspected the wrappers of various
'80 crops, resulted in their being ranked
by them in the order that fellows :
1. Pennsylvania.
2. Jfcw Yeik state (outbide of Big
Flats.)
e. Connecticut.
4. Wisconsin.
5 Big Flats.
3. Ohie.
Of course these opinions are merely
backed up by the little examination that
can be made by samples of the new crops,
and it is very probable that a total change
of opinion will take place later en.
Iu old tobaccos but a limited busiuess is
reported, without any further rise in
prices. The sales were :
Pennsylvania. Crep "70 : 400 cases ;
fine wrappers, 38 te 42 cents ; fine running
23 cents ; medium, 10 te 19 cents ; low,
12 cents ; medium, 1G te 19 cents ; low, 12
cents ; fillers-, 7 cents.
Connecticut. Crep "70 : 200 cases ;
wrappers. 27 cents.
Ohie. Crep '79: Uj." cases running, 9J
cents.
State. Crep '79; 200 cases (reported
by a be istful broker and a clap-trap Wa
ter street leaf concern.)
Havana. Very active. Sales 1,300 bales
paitly '79, partly '80 stock, The uncer
tain repeits regarding the '81 make all old
stocks firm. Prices unchanged. Owing
however te the shrinkage iu weight of old
tobacco, money is lest by importers even
at luling prices.

!;:rt;e S!il;euetU cf Tobacco. .
Last Friday there was shipped te Yerk.
Pa., from Delta and Woodbine stations,
en the Yerk & Peach Bettem railway,
seven car leads of tobacco, aggregating
fifty-six tens. This tobacco was raised iu
the upper section of Harford and the lower
cud of Yerk county, and was sold te
Messrs. Shall, Billing?r & Englc, of Yerk.
It was grown by Messrs. Daniel M. White
ford, Morgan Wlutcferd, Wm. Ress, Jehn
and Emanuel Bulett. Jas. McDermott,
Leuis and Jehn Swauey, N. B. FIcchart
and ethers, all of whom accompanied their
crops. Daniel M. Whiteford raised 2,000
lbs. from one acre and a-quartcr, and sold
his crop at an average of seven cents per
pound. Preparations arc being made in
the upper portion of Harford te plant to
bacco this year en a mere extensive scale
than ever before.
Trade .Notes.
During the first four months of the pres
ent year 1,806,091 pounds of domestic man
ufactured tobacco were cxpeited from the
pert of New Yerk, against 2,390,573 for
the same period of 1880.
A large quantity' of Duck Island leaf has
recently been Feld. Anions the reported
buyers are E. Rosenwald & Bre., 500
cases ; Hay fc Smith, 000 ; L. Bamberger
& Ce., GOO ; J. Lecb As Ce., 300, the
three last-named being of Philadelphia. It
was, it is reported, bought very cheap.
The manufacturers arc beginning te apt.
prcciate the fact that geed Pennsylvania
wrappers of 1S79 crop arc net in tee great
plenty iu San Francisce and in greater
scarcity and relatively held at" much
higher prices in the East than here. In
consequence there is mere willingness te
give the moderate' advance asked for
choice parcels, though the disposition te
buy small lets and only for immediate
consumption is .still prevalent. Sun Fran Fran

Crushing a Man's Skull With a Mallet.
News has come in of a horrible murder
at Corners Bend, Lee county, Ark. A
quarrel occurred followed by a fight, in
which Jehn Richards, a white man,
knocked down Isaac Green, a colored
desperado, with his fist. Isaac sprang te
his feet with great rapidity, seized a heavy
mallet and with a quick, deadly blew,
brought Richards down and continued
beating him until his skull was entirely
crushed te pieces. Green has been ar-.
rested and is in great danger of being
lynched.
Sequel te a Daughter's Shame
Reuben Bray, a wealthy and prominent
citizen of Gallipolis, Ohie, has committed
suicide. He has suffered great trouble en
account of his daughter, who recently died
in a house of ill-fame in Iowa, and his
mind seemed te give way. He succeeded
in finding a shot-gun which had been hid
dsn frera hiln, and blew his brains out..

the Star Reute Scanaal About
Hancock.
Te the Editor ei tuaPlilhulelpliia Times.
Certain Washington correspondents of
the Philadelphia Pi ess, New Yerk Times,
Bosten Herald and ether newspapers give
currency te statements " that money te a
large amount, received from the star rente
ring, was used te aid in nominating Gen
eral Hancock at Cincinnati ;" "that money
from the same seurce was used in the
Pennsylvania Democratic convention of
1880," and that in my capacity as chair
man of the sub-committee of the Senate
appropriation committee en the posteffice
appropriation bills I aided the Star route
ring.
It is net my habit te contradict news
paper falsehoods, but the truth touches
the purity of General Hancock's nomina
tion, and therefore I write.
Ne money whatever came from any
source te carry the delegation' from his
own state for General Hancock and none
was used. His enemies and mine trump
eted the result of that convention as a
victory ever General Hancock and his
friends. General William B. Franklin was
in charge of Hancock's headquarters at
Cincinnati and controlled the expenditure
of all moneys used there. Ne such sum
as $30,000 was either raised te expend or
was expepended there. Iho wnole sum
expended did net exceed $2,500, ami this
was for rent, music, banners, badges, etc.
These in charge of his interest there did
net believe in securing cither his nomina
tion or his election by the use of money.
In the passage of the posteffice deficien
cy bill of 1880, as chairman of the sub
committee I was asked for a hearing of
these interested in routes which
would be cut off by failure of the appro
priation. They complained that the Heuse
committee refused te hear them. The
sub-committee Senators Beck, Beeth
and myself gave them a hearing. It was
public aud the statements made te us were
printed. We reported the bill back te the
full committee favorably. Our report was
adopted and I was instructed te call it up
and put it upon its passage. It passed the
Senate without a call of the yeas and nays.
I gave my views of the subject then, which
are in the record. In our action upon
that bill the guilt or inuocence of no pub
lic official was passed upon, but we aeted '
solely upon the conviction that it would be
unwise public policy te break down the
mail service west el" the Mississippi by re
fusing te vote the money te cary it en.

An Honest Bey.
A remarkable example of honesty
which did- net meet its just reward has
just occurred in New Orleans. Arcine
Alten, the son of a sailor, who is seldom
at home, is a telegraph messenger in that
city. He is barely thirteen years old, but
unusually quick and well-informed for his
age. Some daj's since, while hurrying
through oue of the principal business
streets, he stumbled across a package,
which he opened and found te contain
negotiable bends, having a market value
of fourteen thousand dollars. The boy was
fully aware of the value of his find,
but without a moment's hesitation
he called te a gentleman who was
passing and asked him what he should
de with the bends. Fer some unexplained
reason this gcntlmau believed them te be
the property of Messrs. Labatt As Sen,
well-known lawyers, and sent the boy
with them te their address. The faithful
little messenger carried them as directed,
and found that Mr. Labatt, sr., was net
in. He was received by tlie junior part
ner, however, who took the bends, be
lieving that tltey had been dropped by his
father, aud kindly gave the boy the mag
nificcnt sum of fifty cents. The next day,
however,it turned out that the bends were
the property, net of Labatt, but of
a wealthy old gentleman named Jacksen.
The latter advertised his less and offered
te pay a large reward for the recovery of
his property. A detective, who had been
made aware of the maimer in which the
bends had been brought te Mr. Labatt,
secured them, and, bringing them te Mr.
Jacksen, demanded one thousand dollars
Fer his services. After seme discussion he
was paid seven hundred and gave up the
securities. Meanwhile, the real finder of
the bends, the honest messenger boy, has
te content himself with the fifty cents
given him by the lawyer. His mother,
however, who seems te be a woman who
knows what she is about, proposes te sue
Mr. Jacksen and the detective for at least
a portion of the reward.
Came te Grief.
Exposure el an Allegetl Miracle-Worker.
Fer two years and mere Father Malenoy
of Erie has borne the reputation of a miracle-worker,
and his fame has gene
abroad throughout the state and beyond it.
On one occasion he was said te have re
stored Ellen McGuillian, a young girl, te
life after she had been dead for twelve
hours, and at curing the blind and
the paralytic he wen great renown.
His last miracle was worked en April 14,
when James Burns, who had been a para
lytic for eighteen years, appeared free
from defermity en the streets and main
tained that Father Maleney had cured
him by the laying en of hands and by
prayer. It has often been alleged that the
reverend gentleman was an imposter, but
as he was a priest in geed standing and as
these whom he professed te have cured
told the story of their recovery and
of the part he took in it very
substantially, his parishioners and
many ether devout Catholics in the
diocese were persuaded that Father Ma Ma
eoney was what he pretended te be. Fri
day "he was discovered tobeafraud. It
has been shown te a demonstration that
be acted in collusion withiwrak-minded
members of his fleck, and when he could
net prevail upon them te testify te works
which he never wrought, forged letters
and manufactured interviews. The bishop
has denounced him, and theso who were
his most earnest defenders a week or two
age are new the readiest te denounce his
fraudulent practices. The bishop has net
in any way approved of these alleged
miracles, but waited until their real char
acter was made clear.
Ontwitting stage Robbers.
Corpus CUristl Free Press.
Cel. L. Caldwell reports that when it
was known that the robbers bad stepped
the coach, money and valuables changed
positions. Judge Leisering shoved his
fine watch and chain into his beet ; Capt.
Millett snatched off his watch and chain
and threw them into the brush, and then
cut slits with his penknife in the lining of
the coach and put $G00 in greenbacks out
of the way, all being done before the rob
bers could get the passengers out of the
stage. Capt. Millett were a fine diamond
pin up near his cellar button, which, wear
ing "a heavy beard and holding his head
down, the thieves failed te discover. The
robbers abused and cursed the passengers
for being se peer and penniless, and kept
them standing with their hands up for two
hours. Cel. Caldwell says the robbers
obtained only a few dollars from the passengers.
GARFIELD FIRM.
Determined Net te Recede Frem Hi
Position.
Interest has net abated at Washington
in the surprise the president gave the Sen
ate Thursday. A majority of the Repub
lican senators have called at the White
Heuse. The president was geed-tempered
aud heard pleadings and congratulations
with equal composure. He said he
merely wished .it understood that he had
net made the withdrawals in a vindictive
spirit, but because he thought the occa
sion had risen for them. Tbe general im
pression senators brought away with
them was that while unalterably deter
mined te stand by Mr. Robertsen there
was a chance that in case of Robertsen's
prompt confirmation the president might
reuew the withdrawn confirmations. They
were given te understanu at tue same
time that stalwart sulking and defama
tion might be counted en as sure means of
securing anti-stalwart nominations in place
of the witdrawals. The president has no
intention of hurrying in. this matter. . The
simole truth is. that Mr. Cenklinur would
lvivrt cci'nre.l thn nnminntidn nf liis friends!
uau uub buu iic&iucuii uucujum uiiu audi
he could have fought Robertsen with all
l.n'I .n Al.A u... a .-...& ..1. ....T.. !.. i'l AM
te gain and nothing te lese. Under such
circumstances the president's friends would
have been at a disadvantage. As it is, the
president has furnished them ground te
stand upon, and Mr. Conkling must fight
them fairly if at all. Of course there is no
expectation that Mr. Conkling will yield
without seme sort of contest ever Air.
Robertsen, and will thus put himself in
the way et getting nothing. The talk of
the president's deferring te Mr. Conkling's
wishes any longer has ceased On the con
trary, the president has gene se far as -te
say that while he expects te give aud take
only fair treatment from the Democrats,,
theso Republicans who may band against
him can reach Inm hereafter only through
a letter of introduction.
The star-route crowd, it should be said,
are in ecstasy. The matter atl'erds them
relief from publicity as pleasant as it is
unexpected, and as a distinguished
journalist expressed it te-night, they hope.
that the fight and excitement ever it may,
like Tennyson's brook, "go en forever."
Iu executive session yesterday Mr.
Conkling was very affable and obsequious.
Nothing was en hand excepting a discus
sien ever the propriety of printing yester
day's executive session's speeches en
the Chinese treaties, and Mr. Conkling
had thus ample opportunity te go around
among the senators. He Javailed him
self of it by actually begging many
of the Democrats te join with him
against Robertsen. Mr. Edmunds and
David Dayis returned te their seats. A
Republican caucus has bcen called when
the withdrawals will be the subject of dis
cussion. It is understood that the real
purpose of the caucus is te enable the ad
ministration senators te break the rule
passed at the last caucus constituting a
single objection a contest te a nomination.
That rule is new held te bind overy Re
publican, and if se, must be annulled if an
attempt is te succeed te relieve the com
merce committee of the consideration of
3Ir. Robertsen's name.
They Did Net " Tumble."
When Artcmas "Ward (Charles Browne)
first lectured in Londen his jokes fell flat,
aud seeing hew it was, he concluded his
discourse with words te the effect that the
audience en going out would be handed
tickets te Constantinople and return. " In
that city," went en Artemas, " I propose
te repeat my lecture this day two weeks.
Te each ticket is attached a coupon that
will admit the bearer te the hall. I de
sire your attendance that I may shed light
upon such of my remarks this evening
as have evidently given you paiu, which
I thank you for having borne in si
lence." " What docs the man mean V"' said
Jehn Bull ; " go te Coustautineple te
hear him drawl through this dreary mass
of stuff again ! we won't de it,"
When they reached the deer and no
one was there with the tickets, it slowly
dawned upon them that Ward was laugh
ing at them.
