Trade Will He Held Liable

CHICAGO, Oct. 11.-Wiliiam A. Nash, presi-
dent, and John M. Bower attorney OF the Corn
Exchange bank of New York, arrived in the
city last evening. Mr.. Nash was met at the

Neeld swindled tine several banks out OF, it was

and Bower stated TO u reporter that they had
come to Chicago to investigate the Ferguson
failure They had been doing business with
Ferguson Co. through tue latters New
York agents, Howard & Co. At no time had
they held more than $4,000 OF Ferguson &
Co. paper, and at the present time their hUld-
lngs aggregate probably not over $4,000, for
can realize about ga, 200. The remainder was
loaned upon the bogus warehouse receipts
Issued by Neeld. Alter the above facts
were developed the young bank president

contemplate such loss with a great deal of

action OF Neeld will result in some extensive

A reporter called On Mr. E ". Ferguson last

any light on the subject OF the failure. He
hoped during the week to be able to make a state

CHICA6O KNIGHTS PROTEST.
DenOuncing the Importation OF the So.
called Pink ertOn Men.

SSaASO ElOkefto0 men,
CHICAGO. Oct. ia special meeting of Dis
trict Assembly No. 81, Knights Of Labor, was
held last night in South Halstead street. II
was expected that F. ii. Butler and ]. Barry,

nsy dd O., mot arrive but sent o eeie
lite action In relation to the pending trouble
until they arrived: They will reach here to-
to the authorities of the Town OF Lake. It ex-
pressed the Indignation of the workingmen and
citizens at the importation OF so-called Pinker-
Men utterly unified for the exercise of the
power given them. Many members OF this
force, says the memorial, ..have been shown to
be abandoned and rascally characters, and
others, within the past few months, have been
placed on trial in the criminal court for ofenses
ranging from petty larceny to attempted muir
der. We regard the action In placing such
characters among US as grievous error; and
we protest that their presence is more calcu-
lated to excite and provoke than TO allay and
moilify discomfort"
TALK OF A COOPERATIVE PACKING HOUSE.
A scheme for a cooperative packing house
was proposed and met with much support. A
prese Mt course we will place perpetual boycott
on bis meats and transfer the bulk of his trade
TO the cooperative house. Suitable land for its
location can be easily secured and the plant
put in operation in few months. We can Sc
cure the very best men in the yards. Our
brands would take the preference in every city
be an instantaneous success from the very
start"
II transpires that the Knights of Labor offered
to place u trustworthy patrol all through the
yards and maintain it until the termination OF
the strike. This was offered free of any expense
TO the packing companies.
THE STRIKE SPREADING.
None of The large pork packing establish
ments at the Union stock yards opened their
doors this morning, and none OF the 10000
men usually employed in these departments
offered to return TO work ON the ten hour basis
There is tremendous crowd OF idle men in
and about the yards, but there was no disturb
ance in tie early hours of the forenoon. shortly
before nine O'Clock fifty Of the beef killers en-
pioyed in the Fowler packing house stopped
work and Joined the main body OF the strikers.
tie freight cars by the Armour house also
stopped work, and the pressure from the
strikers is so great that fear Is entertained that
the strike will involve all the men employed
about the yards, and occasion an entire cessa-
ton OF work in ali houses.

Special Cable Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR.
LONDON, Oct. 1.-THE Daily Ne,os' announce
ment of unionist home rule bill Is already
generally discredited. The NeaOs itself this
morning practically retracts II, saying naiUely
that the ministers will be guided by circum-
stances which will in all probability lead them
TO modify their intentions. The Times says that
Hartingtons explicit contradiction was not re-
quired to assure the country that there is no
foundation for the story that the cabinet have
framed u home rule bill and secured for 1t the
approval OF the leaders of the liberal unionists.
The Standard simply remarks that If the scanti.
ness OF real Information stimulates to a morbid
degree the inlagiuati OF some writer's, the
public makes allowance tor the temptations to
which they have succumbed. The Pail Mall
Gazette says: The details given in the Daily
NeUs are indeed as we said Saturday, hardly
worth discussing, for they are certainly both
premature and inaccurate. The tories will as
good as capitulate in the long run, but Salisbury
IS not likely to give home rule ali at once. This,
however, is what the scheme vi provincial couu-
ellis would amount to-" The provincial press
regards the whole story as a myth.
