BAD FOR TOE ACCO GROWERS.
The American Tobacco compnny

having a c.tpi' i! of $30,000,000.
This will be bad news for

N'>w that tli??y tire

bid against each otlcr, and the
natural result \vi 1 be lower
prices to the tobacco planter for
his leaf tobacco and possibly and
probably higher prices to the
consumers of in i nil fact ured to

like England as it can in ? pro

is co:.side;aide lamentation at the
fact that the consumer will have
to pay enhanced prices. The
Daily Chronicle in an editorial
article points out that the new

send prices up. As ihe Imperial
company has no ri"al to tear in
the British market, it will he

the ;iv_w amalgamation vith
considerable alarm.
