THE WHITLOCK SALE CONFIRMED.
Ileed of Conveyance Recorded?Th? Tern??.
Wins? Is Thought of It.
P. Whiiloek's extensive cheroot-factory
in thtt city is now the property of the
American Tobacco Company.
A deed of bargain and sale from Mr.
Whitlock and wife to the above-named
corpo rati, m was admitted to rOOOrd yester?
day in ih.? Chancery Court. This simply
conveyed th.? fantory building at the north
ea.-t ? -orner of Franklin and Twentieth
street*, the nominal consideration being
one dollar.
The report which had currency last week
was that Mr. Whitlock was to reeervt
?soo.ooo for in* plant ami a salary of 8)10,
000 per year for managing it.
Mr. Whitlock told a Dispatch reporter
yesterday that the matter was "all Mt
'tle.l'' and that the report M published
heretofore was Mirant? The new arrange?
ment extends back to the commencement
of this year'* battertene.
Payment, it is understood, was made
llOO.OOfl io cash and the remainder *1?X),
(HiO in stock of the company. The deed re?
corded yesterday was dated March 5th.
TilE TBADB SOMEWHAT EXEBCISEP.
The Trade in Richmond, since it btjeaate
known that this deed had been effected,
has been in a stato of expectancy for fu?
ture developments which might result in
tbe parehtatt of other valuable tobacco
properties
Yesterday a reporter of the Disi'ATCn
v?.sir.il the Tobacco Kxehango to have a
talk with some of its members aud asc??r
tain ivhut might be the bearing of the late
purcliasc upon tho Tobacco Trade of Rich?
mond.
Tho first gentleman interviewed Bald :
" ? anticipalo in? material effect upon
the market, although it look* upon the
faco like tendine to a great monopoly, and
you know the public has an aversion to
monopolies : as much *o to OM in tob?ceo,
which isouo of the luxuries of lif??, as to a
bread deal, which latter artici.? i* the
staple of life. Those 'American' people
will have to come into tho market like
Otlter buyers to get their tobacco and
other inaUsriul. They will bo on a common
footing with others, and if thev have more
money than the general buyers, 1
cannot, like some of my brothers
in the trad.?, ?aa that the par
etnee will be detrimental to the tra?!??
in the least, although it has been sud by
some that this company will have only ono
bity.r her.?, and thut ho will not buy from
a broker or commission merchant ii? long
as he can g.-t a pound from a planter or
man not regularly in tho trade. Of course,
if this were trae it would destroy tho
business of all intermediati? partie?. The
American Tob?ceo Company buy? mainly
cigarette and smoking tobacco?they are
not suppoaed to be buyers of Hurley* or
plu?-tobucco wrappers.
WILL NOT CHANOE THE TBADE.
"The fact of the purchase will not
change the trade bere, the system will b??
th?.-aine, as tin? identical men will be re?
tained in their employment a* managers
and employe? at good salaries. So, in.li
vidallv, so far as I can see, ther?? will be no
new departure. It might als,) possibly b?>
injurious to the small dealers, who are
middle men."
Another gentleman approached sud he
thought this purchase would be to the in?
jury of the trad??. He judged hy the peat
policy of tho American Company, which
was to buy from the plant?is directly and
not from brokers wittujut. the competi?
tion of the brokers buying for outside
markets, this American company would be
in ? position. h<- thought, to buy fro.? th"
plant.-rs on its own terms, which would
?ooa ruin the planters and cause much lea?
tobacco to to cultivated. The morera of
tins acheme are Ii ng beaded und hare long
piir-rs, ;m.i bo one can with certainty know
their aims.
KECKONE!) WITIIOrr. THEIR HOST, ???????.
" Hut perhaps after all," continued th??
sp.-aker. " the company may have reckon?
ed without its boat aud this may not be un
opttortune time at which to fore? a fight.
They m.iv meet with a combination with
M astute mind? at its head as they have
engin? "ring their enterprise, and who o in
trol perhaps m much capital as them?
selves. The Alliance people have already
taken the initiative step, and may
make ,n opposition th.-y have not count?
ed upon. A border grange mei iu
Danville about ton ?lavs ago and appointe I
a eommittos to confer with the Tobacco
Trade looking to co-operation with them
in starting a cigarett? -factory in opposition

bare -.cured tu?? Hohl cigarette.machine,

Mr. William E. Dibrell. leaf -t-?bieco
broker atad editor of the Smithem Tobacvo
litt. said: "The sensation caused by the
late purchases by the American Toba.?
Company of three leading factories extends
t?> all fii<? tobacco traile of the country.

Whatevor may be the present aspect ami

their fa?'ilities and capital and the popu?
