28 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1896. THIS CITY AS A TOBACCO CENTER Under Certain Conditions It Would Rival New York. The Glowing Report of the Cali- fornia State Board of Trade. It Is Thought S K. Thornton Will Form a Company for Tobacco Culture. The California State Board of Trade bas | been paying considerable attention here lately to the subject of tobacco culture, and after an investigation has come to the conclusion that this State is better fitted by climatic conditions for the rais- ing of tobacco than nearly any spot in the TUnion. : A committee composed of J. A. Filcher, Colonel Craigie Sharp and E. W. Maslin | has been industriously at work ‘securing data, and the result of their work has been embodied in a report highly eulo- | gistic of California as a field for tobacco- | raisers. This report will be banded in at | the next meeting of the board, which wiil oceur the second Tuesday in December. Tt is understood that ex-Port Warden S. K. Thornton has become interested in the matter and will soon form a company for the manufacture of cigars and smoking | tobacco as recommended in the report of the committee. Phe following is the re- port in full: To the California State Board of Trade—GEN- | TLEMEN: We, your commitiee appointed to fn- | quire into the merits of certain California to- | bacco grown extensiveiy by J. D. Culp a1 San Felipe, Santa Clara County, and to give an | opinion as to the feasibility of manufecturing | the same inio cigars and other merchantable products, beg leave to report as follows: We find on a casual examination of the to- bacco industry in the United States that it is one of great magnitude, and that in sections | where tobacco is grown it produces more in | value to the acre and is generally more. profit- able to the planter than almost any other staple product. The tobacco yield of the United States is something 500,000,000 pounds per an- num, which, one year with another, brings on an average, including ull the varieties and quaiities, sbout 7 cents per pound, or & total of $35,000,000. In addition to this large pro- duction the United S ates imports something like $16,000,000 worth of tobscco and tobacco products each year. We submit these figures 10 show the importance of tne industry and the extent of tobacco consumption in this country, and incidenially to indicate what may be done in California when it once shall be satisfactorily demonstrated that this State possesses in its soii and climatic conditions all the requirements for the production of & su- perior quality of this important staple. As a rale the tobacco crop in other States is not certain, but is often attended with total or partial failures. Too much or too litte rain. windstorms, hail or frosts, which occur in Eastern and Southern Siates, are draw- Dbacks to the success of the tobacco Crop. None of these elements prevaii in California to such extent or at such seasons as 1o render them items of danger. Here the season is long and dry and warm, enabling the planter to count with certainty on & crop each year. Again, the use of fertilizers in most of the tobucco-producing localities of the Unitea States is an item of considerable expense, while here but litile fertilizing is required. As indicating the value of the tobacco crop per acre as compared with other staples, it is only necessary 10 point to the fact that the | California wheat crop of 1893, which smounted to littie less than $20,000,000, was grown on 2,600,000 acres of land, while the entire tobacco crop of the United States for the same year was grown on 700,000 acres of land. T hose best advised on the subject ciaim that California has within her border over 1,000,000 acres of land suitable for the cultivation of high-grade tobacco. When this area shall be utilized in growing tobacco, as In time it may be, the output of the State will aggregate more then the present total output ot the United | States. From such an industry on such a scale the advantages that would accrue are difficult to contemplate. Manufacturers would arise to work up the raw material in all cen- ters of trade and population, and the laborers reguired in thesc factories would be legion. The railroads and other carriers would find increased business in freighting out of the State many tons of tobacco and (obacco prod- ucts where they are now carrying in one ton. The farmer would receive & benefit that cannot be easily esiimated. 1t is well known that choice tobscco lands in the Eastern and Southern States rent readily for $50 or more per scre per annum, and what is true in the £ast in regard to the value of land for the pro- duction of this staple would be more than true in regard to the same item in Calitornia. The increase in the value of the product of the Calltornia farm would add to the value of that farm and resnit ina corresponding increase to the assessment roll. The increased number of factories in cities and towns would give an impetus to all lines of business and send for- ward the value of all city and town property. San Francisco would become the rival of New York as a cigar-manufacturing center, and its output of plug and smoking tobacco would surpass the output in these goods of Richmond or St. Louis. To accomplish all this it needs but to be | to the projectors, but would go further than | been desiroyed on that island by the opposing | to the gratifying fact that good tobscco can be | nia and this State in consequence would at- | Miller sat sulienly scowling at each, al- | black feathers. demonstrated to thesatisfaction of men of en- terprise and capital that California can grow a superior quality of tobacco. We believe it can. Our investigation of the subject con- vinces us of this important fact. We know from most experiments made in this State in_growing tobucco that the prod- uct when finally turned has been too rank and strong for manuficturing purposes, but these aifficulties seem 10 have been entirely over- come in the product from San Felipe. Suc- cess with Mr. Culp, the San Felipe grower, seems to have long ago passed the experi- mental line. We have made a careful jnvestigation of the merits of his tobacco and and have compare ! the cigars manufactured from it with other standard gouds, and do not hesiiate to assert our belief that his tobacco and the goods man- ufactured therefrom are superior to Any simi- lar product of the United tes. We are led to beiieve that the Culp tobacco, if not in all Tespects equal to the best imported from Havana, is at least the best substitute for the Havana product obtainable. The result accomplished by him in growing and curing the high-grade tobacco which he is now offe ing to the trade leads us to believe that when he says California might become the leading tobacco section of the world there are reasons for the assertion. At present and in the past most of the San Felipe tubacco has found a market in the East, and as nearly as we can learn a great deal of it has been returned to us in manufactured form as a superior Eastern or ‘mported product. This is poor economy, and it should be the aim and effort of Californians to prevent ihis double transit of our product and the consequent in- creased cost to us when prepared for con- sumption. To this end we would like to see those who have the means at their disposal form them- Se'ves into a company for the manufacture of cigars and other merchantable products from the San Felipe tobacco. We believe thatsuch an entesprise wou'd not oniy prove p ofitable any other move that couid be made toward establishing conclusively the merits of Califor- nia tobacco and the adaptability of the State for its production. The Culp tobacco, as we have said, is un- questionably the nearest substitute obtainable for Cuba touacco. Owing to the Cuban war and the large amounts o1 tobacco which have factions, the supply of the Cuban product has been cut short and the San Felipe tobacco in consequence is in exira demand smong those who are unable to secure their usual importa- tion of Havana goods but who desire ‘to keep up the standard of their brands. While thus serving & purpose to the trade it is very evi- dent that Calliornis, which produces this high-grade substitute, is being Tobbed of the creait which is justiy due. There would seem, therefare, no better time to put this tobacco on the market strictly on its’ merits. Its superiority would soon be recognized end the consuwing world wake up obtained even tnough devastating wars should destroy the last pound of tne Cuban crop. The tact would focus attention on Califor- tract the eager interest ol ali tobacco-growers and manufactu ers, while the manufacturers of the San Felipe product would find a de- mand for their goods which the present sup- gxy of raw product would not eu:gle them to 1. Being pioneers in the establishment of the merits of the California goods they would be insured an industry that would grow with | the growth of the product, be as lasting as time and profitable possibly beyond computa- tion. That there is & field inviting such an enter- | prise is evidenced from the fact that there are now manuiacturea in the First Revenue Dis- | triet of Caiifornia slone something like 62,- 000,000 cigars per annum, and practically all irom wbacco grown outside of this State. J. A. Filcher, Craigie Sharp, E. W. Maslin, committee. A VERDICT OF MURDER. How Johr Miller Shot and Killed Young James H. Childs. Cororer Hawkins yesterday held an inquest in the case of James H. Childs, who was shot to death on Wednesday afternoon by John Miller, who was at the same time endeavoring to kill Mrs. Nellie Ryan, his former housekeeper. The tragedy took place on the doorsteps at 42534 Clementina street. None of the evi- dence produced before the Coroner’s jury showed the least trace of justifiable homi- cide, as claimed by Miller, wko, 1t is said, Pproposes to set up a plea of self-defense, As the jury and the witnesses entered the room where the inquest was held most as though he regarded every one as his enemy. Bent hali double by the hunch on his ba he presented a striking con- trast to the tall policeman, Officer McGee, in whose custooy he was. When the woman, Mrs. Nellie Ryan, for whom he got into trouble, took the wit- ness-stand, his eyes fairly danced with ill suppressed hatred. She was dressed in black and wore a new hat of a late style trimmed with green ribbon and She glanced ruefully at her old hat that lay on the table, the one that was clipped on the brim by one of Miller's murderous bullets. She began her story by zelling that for a year she kept house for Miller, but left him as he refused to pay her what he owed. She obtained three or four other positions, but he aiways “spoiled” them for her. On Monday he ran after her with 2 weapon, and she fled to the police station for protection. Later she caused his arrest. On the day of the tragedy she went to see Mrs. Burns who is in the same house where Miller lives, as the woman had sent for her. Miller emerged from the house revolver in hand and ran after her as she fled. 1n all he fired four shots, one of which hit her hat. Sne entered the Childs’ | resideuce and heard the shot that ended young Childs’ life. W. W. Childs, brother of the dead man, told how the woman ran to his door for protection and he &nd his brother took Dber in, James staying outside to stop Mil- ler from entering. spsfastrsprsfasiesiastesiastriestrsprsirsirsiasirsfasirefestriesiaspesirsiestasiesiaetesiasiaiestriesiasieatrsieciasirsiasirsfanirsfentriesiasirsis Siofrefasiesfasiests One of the most important witne;u: value.

The musicale at Mme. Ziska's Institute yes- terday aflernoon was in every respect a great success. The handsomely decorated pariors were filled with an appreciative audience. The programme consisted of classical music, which the puplis of the well-known teacher, Professor F. J. Zifferer, rendered in an ad- mirable manner. A trauscription. composed by Mme. Billoni Zifferer, was played by Miss Delie Cox and received great appiause. Miss Amy Nelson rendered tne Souata op. 18, by Beethoven, in very artistic style. The “Spin- ning Song,” by Wagner-Liszt, and the valse in E minor, by Chopin, performed by the Misses Bessie and May Roden, were the gems of this occasion. These two sisters, who have been heard in public concerts before, show remark- able musical talent. All others did well. e ————— Gray horses are the longest lived.

THE FAMILY NEWSPAPER. It is not disputed that under its new management THE CALL has made a large gain in circula- tion. It is recognized as the conservative, respectable family newspaper. With this reputation well earned and well sustained it is worth a great deal of money. THE CALL, we believe, is able to show that it'has a genuine family circulation of over 50,000. With such figures it should be able to command the best advertising patronage, and fiow that the tide of the United States again it should speedily find itself reaping the golden rewards of its good reputa- tion. Of course, the animus of the Examiner’s attack on THE CALL is plain. The Examiner has not disguised the fact that it looks upon THE CALL as a formidable rival. The advertising field on this coast is necessarily limited. ~The cream of the business is sure to go to a paper which circulates among families, because shrewd business men would rather have their advertisements in a journal read by 50,000 families than in one with a circulation of 100,000 among the floating population. We do not apprehend that THE CALL will be injured by any attacks upon it prompted by business rivalry. The public is quick to see through such a scheme. 1In a short time THE CALL will be prosperity is setting toward CESARE CRESP! GETS NO RELIEF Supreme Court Affirms the Lower Court’s De- cision. Criminal Libel Case Which Interested the Italian Colony. Two Journalists Were Antagonists in a Contest Which Was Judicially Closed. The Supreme Court has reached a de- cision in the case of Cesare Crespi, an Ital- ian journalist, who was convicted some time ago in the Superior Court in this county of criminally libeling Mrs. Al- megia, another member of tue Italian col- ony.

NEW TO-DAY clear and emphatic, as follows: “We do | not perceive anything in the language of the court but a clear and correct exposi- tion of the law and the cause of its ex- istence.”” The case was noteworthy, outside of the personal 1ssues involved, because of cer- tain legal questions that were raised. One | argument which was set forth on appeal | was that the Police Court has no right to try this particular kind of misdemeanor, for which the maximum penalty exceeds $1000 and one year’s imprisonment. This the court finds to be correct. One interesting part of the case wasa published charge, which constituted a por- tion of the libe!, that a certain newspaper editor was paid by the Camorra to libel and vilify certain people. The defendant un- dertook to prove this. Mr. Almegia was called 10 the stand as Crespi’s witness, and the court expressed the opinion that this :Jvas done for the purpose of impeaching im. Another point made by the defendant Crespi was that the rulings of the tria! court were erroneous, because it was not shown that Dr. Pescia had any relations with the Italian Benevolent Society. On tkis the Supreme Court opinion reads: “That may well be, but the com- plete answer is that the value or weight of | the testimony was for the jury alone.” M:. Almegia was allowed to testify that he was a married man and the father of a family. That was complained of, but the court found that, in any case, that testi- mony could not have done the defendant any harm. The judgment of the Superior Court was affirmed. The average weight of an Englishman is 150 pounds, of a Frenchman 136, a Bel- gian 146. The average height of an Eng- lishman is 5it. 9 in., a Frenchman 5 ft. 4 in., a Belgian 5 ft. 63 in.
