CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE.

An Injunction Issued Against the Board Of
Trade Inspector.
CHICAGO. October 4.-The sensation of
the Board of Trade this morning was the
announcement that clique had gone be-
fore Judge Shepard and secured an injunc-
ton against the Board of Trade inspector
to prevent him from issuing certificates on
newly packed October pork. The clique
yesterday morning received and paid for all
new packed pork rendered it, but it now
transpires that this was only pork
sold to the clique at low
prices. High priced pork rendered them
on deliveries yesterday was refused, and
an injunction to prevent its delivery was
asked for. The injunction is not only
against the official inspector but all officials
of the board. The provision inspection
committee, packers individually and every
body concerned clear down to the hog itself.
The testimony on which the injunction
was issued was ex parte. The packers and
board of trade officers were not repre-
scented. The directors met in secret
session soon after the board opened. Their
attorney was present with copy of the in
junction and its allegations were carefully
considered. The injunction, besides pro-
hibiting the delivery of pork, also prevents
the directors from disciplining members
for refusing to take pork The latter point,
however, has been decided so often both in
the lower and higher courts that little i'm
portance was attached to it. The courts
have. upto date, always conceded the board
the right to discipline members for infrac-
tions of rules.

GALVESTON, October 2.-Murder. and the

other almost instantly this afternoon. Geo.
Menetes and Gus Poloky, Two Greek fruit
dealers, entered the wholesale fruit and
commission house of Ratio, Lang & Wein-
berg, on the Strand between Twenty-fourth
and Twenty-fifth streets, about 2:3O o'clock
apparently the best of friends. They passed
to the business office, in the rear, for the
purpose of adjusting some accounts. This
being done, apparently to the satisfac-
ton of both men, Menetes picked
up pen for the purpose of signing a pa
per prepared by Mr.. Leinback, the book
keeper. Some hasty words in Greek passed
between Menetes and Poloky, when the
latter hastily stepped out of the rear door
of the store and almost instantly returned,
and without a word of warning, raised
45-calibre Colts and fired at Menetes, who
was leaning over the counter writing. The
ball passed through Menete's neck, severing
the vertebra, and he fell to the floor with
the pen grasped in his hand,
and expired almost instantly. Po-
loky, Immediately after firing the
fatal shot, darted out the rear door of the
store, ran east through the alley and find
ing it blocked by people attracted by the
shot and escape impossible seized his
smoking revolver in both hands, placed
the muzzle over his heart and fired and

Menetes had informed Ratio, Long

no longer good and not to trust him for
more than $40. The bodies of both were re-
moved to an undertaker's, viewed by the
coroner and the inquest will be held to-
morrow. Menetes was about 25 years and
Poloky about 40. Both were unmarried and
