conference at Winchester. KY, yesterday. accord
ing to statements made here to-day by members

Louisville March 24-News that an agreement
had been reached between the American Tobacco
Company and the Society of Equity received

five counties in Kentucky. several in Ohio and two
three in Wat. Virginia. The region in Ken

counties in Western Kentucky and several in Ten
ressee The product of this district is nearly all
taken for export.
