The petitioners are aware that the

Cincinnati, Mar. 25.--While the re-

lean Tobacco company and the execu.
tive committee Of the Society OF
Equity is denied by Clarence Lebus
and @. A. Brooks, respectively pres
ident and secretary Of the white
hurley tobacco board Of control Of the
Society OF Equity, It is nevertheless
claimed TO be authentic by other
members OF the American Society Of
Hquity. Mr.. Lebus, who Is In Louis
willie, KY, over the telephone stated
that the reported agreement Is not
true and was made Of whole CLOTH"
1t is claimed that the executive
committee OF the Society Of Equity
received word from the American To
bacc6 cOmpHnY's headquarters in New
York that the company would buy the
Is0S-1s07 crops at Is and 1S cents per
pound respectively, and that in view
of their determination to raise no crop
this year, the committee was sworn to
secrecy, The report by many people
who claim to be acquainted with the
situation is discredited because of
the fact that the white hurley board of
control has heretofore only asked Is
cents per pound for both the crop OF
1906 and 1907, but 1t is claimed that
this Is accounted for by the agreement
to carry out the mo crop for 1909
idea as part OF the consideration to
the American Tobacco company. The
agreement as reported only affects the
white hurley districts and has NO
relation to the dark hurley districts,

: IS Minutes From Broadway.

The largest audience Of the season
greeted Scott Welsh and Frances Cor
don in "Forty-Five Minutes From
Broadway" at the Hattiesburg Audito-
rum last night.
In its original caste, with ample
scenery and dozens of pretty chorus
girls in rich costumes, "Forty-Five
Minutes From Broadway" had long
runs in all the big cities, and it prob
ably deserved the numerous favorable
criticisms which it received from the
metropolitan press.
But the Hattiesburg production was
decidedly disappointing. There is lit
tie in the play to begin with, and
when shorn of it's spectacular sittings,
