Abstract of the Disclosure A latching system for a luggage article in which an elongate latch console attaches interiorly to one section of the article for cooperation with a hasp assembly on another section of the article. The latch console includes a pair of left-hand latches which pivot in a counterclockwise direction from hasp-engaging to hasp-disengaging positions and a pair of right-hand latches which pivot in a clockwise direction from hasp- engaging to hasp-disengaging positions. Slide rods within the console are connected between the latches, and a central swiveling actuator moves the latches from their hasp-engaging to their hasp-disengaging positions responsive to movement from the actuator from a rest position. Springs return the latches, slide rods and actuator to their intial positions when the actuator is released. A combination lock is provided to lock the actuator in the rest position and the latches are mounted for movement independently of the slide rods when the hasps are disengaged to allow the hasps to be re-engaged with the latches even when the actuator is locked.
