WON’T SELL STOCK Connecticut Dealers Obdurate and As Result Work in Warchouses Is Falling Off. Hartford, Feb. 3.—Refusal on the part of growers who have not yet sold their tobacco to take the price offered them by warehouse men is leading to curtailment of work at tobacco ware- houses with the prospect that in view of the weakened tobacco market these warehouses will not resume full opera- tions again this season, which will end by April 1. Opinions vary as to the amount of unsold tobacco still on the hands of the grower, estimates placing the amount at 20 to 40 per cent. of the year's crop. William K. Ackley, secretary of the New England Tobacco Growers' asso- ciation said today that he estimated that 60 per cent. of the Havana and 25 per cent. of the broadleaf were un- sold. The farmers were unwilling, he said, to accept the price the buyers were offering, which was much below what was offered late last summer when most contracts were made, and in many cases below what it actually cost the grower to raise his tobacco. Grow- ers of unsold tobacco have no inten- tion, he said, of letting their crops go at the sacrifice price offered them at present and expect that if they with- | hold their tobacco that will of itself strengthen the tone of the market.
