FePFigO, Of Italy, at MadlSORYille.

a Madis0nyille, Ky, correspondent
Of July IA, writing TO the GAINESVILLE
Tenn Leaf-Chronicle, says
Mr.. John FerrigO, of New York city,
the American tobacco buyer for the
Italian government, and Mr.. John II.
Hodge, prominent tobacco dealer, of
Henderson, were in the city Thursday,
and stopped at the Hotel Lucille. The
presence of these gentlemen i'm the
city is matter Of public interest, as
Mr.. Ferrigo is one of the largest pur-
chasers Of dark tobacco in the country,
buying the entire supply for the Ital-
ian government.
In an interview with Mr.. Ferigo he
said TO your correspondent that he had
come here to look at some tobacco he
purpOsed buying. As to the amount
or ownership of the tobacco he refused
to state.
In reply TO the question if he pro-
posed buying extensively in Hopkins
county, Mr.. Ferigo stated that he was
in the market and would buy wherey-
er he could get satisfactory goods at
satisfactory prices. This statement
may mean good deal to the tobacco
growers Of this, Henderson district, as
heretofore the bulk Of his purchases
have been confined to the GAINESVILLE
district.
"Do you have any dealings with the
Association people?" was asked the
big tobacco man.
eyes, he replied. "What we want
is the tobacco. We do not care from
what source it comes"
"Do you expect the various farmers
organizations to affect the price Of to-
bacco?n
"That is hard TO say" he replied.
"Nou never can tell i'm advance what
the price Of tobacco will be, as the crop
is an uncertain one"
Speaking Of the years tobacco crop.
il was the opinion Of both Mr.. Feugo
and Mr.. Hodge that the acreage this
year will be as large as any previous
year. Mr.. Hodge says that after thor
ough investigation ne has found the
acreage To be fully up TO the average
IN most localities and i'm some places T..
in excess Of former years.
Both gentlemen spoke opumistically /
Of the situation. They had no trouble /
