CIGARETTE TRUST INDICTED. The Grand Jury Yesterday Brine In Hill of Indictment In Open Court. It was known that at rhe last term of the Superior Court the grana jury of Granville county made a pre sentment 3gainst the cigarette manu facturers who had been buying tobac co on the Oxford market. The pre sentment at the time eljcited much comment and no one knew what the outcome of it would be. However, at that term of the court no regular indictment was drawn. The matter has since been quite much dis cussed and the prevalent opinion has been that since the cigarette manufac turers had organized under one mam moth concern under the. name of the American Cigarette Company that mos probably no further action in the premises would be taken. , It was, therefore, something of a surprise late yesterday afieruoon when the news was borne from .ear to ear that the bill of indictment had been drawn There.is no doubt it any longer. The bill includes the names of the " cigarette manufacturers and their agents in Oxford, to-wit : The . Dukes,Allen & Ginter,and the Km ball Company. Mr J. M. Currin is in thpir resident aeent on Uiv.iivi . ' this market. The case will come up at the next term of the Superior Court. Until nn r .e r-a?- tpll what will be the outcome of the indictment.
