THE WESTERN PACKERS
Their Attorney Answers the
Chicago Complaint.
rhe Answer Gives the reasons
a Less Rate on Packed Pro-
ducts Than on Live stock
Increase of Tonnage.

A Des Moines special to the Omaht
Bee Of yesterday, says Mr.. A. b. Cum
Minis, of This city, the attorney who rep
resents the Iowa pork packers, is now in
! Washington fling with the interstate
| commerce commission their answer 70
| the Chicago packers. He discusses al
| great length and with very careful ex-
| animation of the facts the reason why
| the Iowa packers should have a better
rate for shipping the packed product
than is given for shipping the live hogs.
He rep Is 'nts packing houses at Des
Moines, Sioux City, Fort Dodge, Atlantic,
Marshall,own, Ottumwa, Cedar Rapids,
Dubuque and Keokuk. The aggregate
daily capacity of these Iowa houses is
more than Is, 600 hogs. During last year
they packed about I, 900, 600 hogs. They
reply through Mr.. Cummins to the sew
eral charges of the Chicago packers, as
the Iowa reason why a lower rate should
be given 10 the dressed meats than TO the
live products, as follows:
1. The risk attending the transporta.
ton of live hogs is much greater than
that of the product.
9. The average weight of live hogs
carried in a Car is not more thar IL, 600
pounds, while the average weight Of the
PRODUCTS not less than so, 600 pounds.
3. The care and attention that must be
given to a train load of live nogs, as com-
Cared with that given to a train load Of
the packed product, greatly increases the
cost of transporting the former.
4. The tree carriage to and from the
place Of shipment Of a large number of
persons accompany ing live hogs adds
enormously 10 the cost OF service.
3. The necessity Of continuous aud
rapid transit in the case Of live hogs rem.
defs the service more expensive than that
of carrying the packed product.
The Iowa packers III their argument
urge this point that the tonnage Of the
transportation companies west of Chicago
is greatly increased by the establishment
of packing houses where they are now in
operation. They take for illustration tne
house of r. M. Sinclair & Co., at Cedar
Rapids, which Is n of the largest pack
ing houses in Iowa, Ms follows:
During 1883, live hogs received by rail
so, 322 $50 pounds. This represents the
total tonnage that would have been car
ried by the railroads it the hogs had been
taken 10 tnlCagO. OH 'ne otntT ndi u
slaughtering them at Cedar Rapids gave
rise TO the folio wing tonnage:
