WHISKY IS SOLD AT $75 A CASE AT LOUISVILLE.
Louisville, November 14.—Two local distilleries sold whisky openly in Louisville today at $75 a case, regardless of the wartime prohibition law. Hundreds of orders, filed bewent into effect, it was said, were being filled by these distilleries, which resumed sales following the granting of an injunction yesterday by Federal Judge Evans, restraining the government from interfering with the sale of nearly a million gallons of “floor stock” whisky. Wright & Taylor and the BrownForman company, which received the temporary injunction, expected to sell all of their whisky in a hurry, it was: announced.
