POLITICAL GOSSIP. Governor-elect Pattison has selected Walter Glllard. a young colored man of Milfor.l. for the posirion of messenger In the Ex-exutive office at Columbus. The job pays a year.

Glllard Is years of age. a graduate of the Miltord High School and an active church and Sunday school worker among the members of his race. He also a graduate of the Cincinnati School of Pharmacy, and for a couple of years has been the prescription clerk in a Milford drugstore. Governor Pattison Is resting quietly at his home at Milford, and will probably remain there until Saturday. Whiie somewhat indisposed, there is nothing In his condition that alarms members of his family.

He takes afternoon drlve. and la recovering from the effects of the strain' of the past few -weeks-Busy preparations are being made for the removal to Columbus John Paulson.

in sny county of where that e- '-vi "I years r- ii tste after the lapse of that r-eriod of years This Is will serve to obvla'e the necessity to bring suit to restore a rc-ord. as is now the esse, but it Is not to afTce-i pending litl-otlun iroilnc out of auth destruction of records. It la expected thst a bill will be prepared to change the system of psrs com ri this cltv. There has been a aiscue-om ttoe matter by a number or men ana in'ir Idea Is to hsve the control of the parks to iwtard of three lo five men who will serve wrthout compensation. They will have the Dower to Improve and to preserve the pree-nt parks and create new ones, and hsve tb- right to rsua the necessary funds ihJlr work This system la like that of the Metropolitan Park Board of Boston Msyor lempeey Is said to favorably Im- that Ides, thouah It Is not l.e Federal clan which has been talked of.

Yet the Mayor la not wholly committed to the Federal plan. The Cite Waterworks employes started to quit jeaterday snd unices others are ap pointed In their places the situation may become serious. A number of repair men and ofner employee yeaterday threw up their Jobs, as they were under the Impression that Ibey would be dropped ahort- 1 anvhow Superintendent Hoeh. it is said, tried In vain to get them to stay. tteoree Piiehta had a conference with Mayor Iemoser yesterday In regard tn th appointment of a nonpartisan Park Bisira to bo composed of cltlxens of culture win rtg to serve for the honor and witnout pay.

Mr. Fuchia la tne com mitteeman of a General Committee of cities to prepare a bill for passsge by the legislature 10 authorlxe the appointment of such boards or commissions by lb Msvora. The commission Is to have th power to levy taxes. Isaue bonds, acquire lands for parks and boulevards by- pur chsse or condemnation and to employ 1 Park Superintendent and other neceaaary help. Mayor Impsey the Idea of such a commission appealed to him.

but he could not definitely commit himself on It as yet. as the Mayors of the state are con siderlng the mstter of ssking t'ne legis lature to provide Ihe Federal form of Gov ernment for the munif ipallties which would do away, with boards snd centralise the power In the Mayor, who would appoint heads of various departments. Msyor Iiempsey snld thst this plan would be good with a good Mayor, but very objectionable with a bad one. as he could build up a powerful political machine. Mayor Iempsey yesterday received a letter from t'ne Clerk of the I'nlverslty Board notifying him that the terms of I'nlverslty I'ireetors Ssmuel W.

The Board of Public Service yesterday- held up the weekly pay rolls of the water works amounting lo and vouchera for wnterwirks bills aggregating about w-hli-h were due liecember 31. The opinion of the iMiard Is that these should have been paid by the retiring board snd not left, as a deficit for the new administration. It was decided to ask Solicitor Iwmnn whether the new board muet pay these bills out of the funds for the expenses of this year.

The weekly pay rolls of the City Kngineer's department. City Hospital and Wharfage Department were a I. ho held up for the same reason. Jacob J. Fraxier aas yesterday appoint ed by Public Service Director Bender as his assistant.

Horsiman wanted to know something about the celebrated speech delivered at Akron.

"I snld to Taft: Judge, you did He laughed, and said he hadn't thought that his speech would have so much Influence In Cincinnati.

He said that when Senator 1 lck asked I11111 to speak in Ohio he felt.lt was his duty to do all in his power to re-elect Governor Herrick. and ho answered that he would speak, but It must be with the understanding that he would advocate railroad rate legislation, and also that he would criticise the Cincinnati Republican machine, which he had always since lwu) opposed. He requested the Senator to state his attitude on those Issues to Governor Herrrlck. and to let him know-whet her under those conditions the Governor wished him lo sperm. In due time the Senator reported that he had had a conference with Governor Herrick and that the Governor desired him to deliver a speech.

"I don't suppose Senator Dick knew how explicit the Judge would be in the exposition of his views on the Cox machine and its ticket, but ihey certainly had fair warning that Judge Taft would make a specific application to Cincinnati of President Roosevelt's preachings against grafters and bosim.

'While the burley leaf tobeoco trade Cincinnati for the year waa not char arterised by any of tha wild and sensa tlonaj features which attracted the world attention In 19m. the year nevertheless will go down In the history of the trade, bot here and throughout the burley belt, as one of the beat and moat satisfactory to all In terests concerned, with the possible exception of the element ot shippers and packers who overreached themselves In pure by a vain attempt to repeat their luck of 1UM At the beginning of Iflnft prices paid In the country were higher by probably 1c per pound than hoee paid at the beginning ef 19M for the crop of the prevknjs year. Tha' portion of purchases which packers sold 1 winter order gave them In some Instances a fair margin of profit, but on all tobaccos which they had to rehandle and redry they were compelled to sell at about the same figures, grade for grade, as they had ob tained for the winter order goods. The net result of these operations to man packers and shippers was that they mad no money, and In many cases sustained lossea through shrinkage. Insurance storage charge, to which might be added an absolute loss nf time.

SO MX OLD CROW I.STT The old tobacco still on hand (crop lPOsi Is of a superior quality to that of the new- tor crop), and manufacturers seem appreciate that fact and to be reaching out for all obtainable and especially In the fin to fancy grades. That portion of the new crop showing first-class quality, however. Is not being overlooked by manufacturers and specula tors, and Is receiving very close attention, In fact, from all Interests In the trade, aa It is felt that there will be a very large surplus of the low and common to-low me dlum types, and thla statement ran be borne out by the fact that all good grades of the 11SM crop were lower In Septembe and Ocroher last than they are at present. The outlook for Is that notwlthstand Ing the record-breaking proportlona of th crop of (the great bulk of which I yet to come forward.) tobaeooa of good Quality, clear of house burn, and of fal body and color, will command satisfactory prices throughout the season, for the man ufactured output, aa shown by the I'nlted State revenue returns. Is Increasing, snd there Is a constant growth In the export trade of burley leaf.

One of the most Interesting phases of th years business was the second attempt the Kentucky- and Ohio Burley Tobacco Growers' Association to control the of In Its great battle with the Amerl can Tobacco Company. The first attempt as is welt Known, failed because the aaso-ciatlon was not able to secure the neces sary financial backing to swing the desl while the second scheme collapsed In No vembrr. on account of the d-strust the growers and their refusal or negler to support the movement. THI IXX-AI. MARKS-T.

As Indicated by the tables lelow, the lo cal marset made a splendid showing a compared with both In the volume 01 transactions and the aggregate amount cash shies at all the commission tobacco lvarehOL.ses. The offerings on the auction "breaks' made a gain er H4 of hogsheads or an increase of nearly L.11 per cent, while the amount of cash sales Increased from 5.1 In IIS'4 to 41. an In crease of nearly per cent. While he aggregato business transacted In the nclnnail market in II was con siderablx-below the figures of some for mer years (excepting U4) the Knowing, things considered, is a very favorable and satisfactory one. the volume of busi nesa.

for the present year promises to fa exceed that of llkfi. In an exhaustive review of the Clncln natl leaf tobacco market for the past yea the Cincinnati Western Tobacco Jourtia wiil to-day say. In part: 1 average price per hundred pound was i 13 In I WW. as compared with 1 in io-t. nuti or tnese averages are con slderahly above the normal.

The high average in as Is well known, was du principally to the fine colory character of crof and its short production, and to the extraordinary speculation In the spring of 1WH. The continuance of high prices in 13tV csnno. be credited to the hlah arade the crop. As fsr as the 1WM croo Is concerned the limited Inspection now at forded of the new 1305 crop shows tha ine jis crop was a far Iietter one. yet as compared to the 1DU3 crop the 1004 crcp waa i- interior.

WKT PRICES WERE HIGHER. There' has been an Undercurrent of fer ment in all the tobacco markets in the nast year, ann tnts has not been without In fluence on the local market. However, the principal reaaon for the higher average of prices in can be safely credited to the mereaee In consumption, and in ennse quence increased demand on the part of manufacturers. The distinct feature of the market In lls was the strength of rotorv grades. of which the offerings were ex tremely limited, only 4.4' hhds of the flne lfH3 crop being offered, and the very high average of fix was reached on these of ferings.

As usual, when there Is an overabund ance of any grade it palls on the market so 11 was wun ine medium and common grades. The best averages attained on the IB04 crop during 1WC waa In the first two weeks in January: the best average on the lima crop was reached the week ending May 1.1, and the highest average on the new ISMiS crop was made the last market week In December. The opening of the year saw an upward tendency In the market on all grades, "This strength continued until the last week in March. During April the receipts largely Increased, snd. as usual, the presence of considerable tobacco In soft order caused a weakness In the market.

"The opening of May brought new strength to the market, and a tone of speculation. which was occasioned by rumors that the buying movements of the previous spring were again to be duplicated. The months of June. July. August and September, though very rainy, saw a normal warehouse business done.

In October and Novemb-r the promotion of the Burley Growers' Company occupied considerable attention, but Its influence cannot be said to have shown any effect on the market conditions. The last sale of the year lWtt was the lsrgest in fire years, and its portent Is that the C'ncinnatl tobacco market will open iwsl with prospects of a happy and busy year.
