THE 1oRILLARD TOBACCO PLATT
Receipts Of Leaf TObaecO-Prlces Fairly
We'll Sustained-Trade Quiet.

WINSTON, N. c.. Dec. 2L-Special.-
The Southern Tobacco Journal Of this
date has the following to say Of the re-
ported sale Of the big Lorilard plant to
the American Tobacco Company:
1T Is denied by the LoriIlard people
that their concern is part OF the Amer
lean Tobacco Company, but THIS does not
settle the matter after all. They have been
other transactions Of the trust In which
secrecy has played a part for while, and
this may be the case in instance. The
fact that the American Tobacco COM
pany's agents were seen selling Loril-
lard's goods in St. Louis and other places Is
strong evidence that some combination
has been effected between the two cen
Germs. The Journal would be too Slad
to know that the combination had not
been effected, and will be among the first
10 correct the impression should 1t gain
sufficient evidence for 80 doing. How
ever. until there IS something more than a
simple denial by the parties concerned
we shall believe that the deal has been
consummated.'
Receipts Of leaf tobacco on the Winston
market have been large this week con-
sidering the cold weather prevailing the
latter half OF the week. Wagon trade
was large and the shipments heavy to-
bacco coming from all sections Of the
State.
The quality Of the offerings showed but
little change from the usual receipts. A
good deal OF the stock, however, has been
of a nondescript character. Some cry
fine filters were eagerly bid for. a few
lots OF medium wrappers changed hands,
while large quantities Of smokers and cut
ters were sold.
The prices have been fairly well sus-
tained, though tobacco has not brought
as high figures as were expected at this
time Burley leaf has advanced from 20
cents per pond. and tobaccos generally
make corresponding response. But this
year IL has shown little tendency TO fol-
low it's Western competitor.
