He Proposes Making Il Interesting For
Some Of the Mfliionaires.

CHICAGO, Nov. 23.-The Govern
ment is on the trail Of the millionaire
freight manipulators, and the scent
grows warmer at every step. Things
will be very lively for Phil Armour,
Swift q Co., and other big individuals
and concerns If indictments are secured
against them. II IS stated that Fed
eral Grand Jury at Omaha win try To-
investigate the matter, and will try to
indict Armour for violating the Inters
state Commerce law by accepting a
secret cut-rate on freight shipments.
It is alleged that Swift & Co., have
saved $50, 900 inthe last six months in
the secret cut-rate scheme. Firmemirsh
q Co., Of Marshalltown, Ia, are cred
tied with having saved $4,000 during
the same period. Armour & Co,
are said to furnish more feight to the
railroads than any other concern in the
country excepting the Standard Oil
Company, and their profit is believed
to be enormous.
The method said to be used at Omaha
is to ship to Eastern points via Kansas
City, the rates being the same from
both places, and to reload the cars with
about double the freight at Kansas
City without changing the bill Of ship
ment. Thus all payment Of rates on
the increased bulk is saved to the ship

HARRISBURG, November 24.-By a
decision in the courts here yesterday
Father M. ]. Mcbride, a Catholic
priest, is cut off from an inheritance
Of 81 800. One year ago Robert Bren-
nan died in this city, and, few hours
before his death, signed a will bequeath-
ing his entire estate to Father Mcbride.
William and Richard Brennan Of
Buffalo, nephews Of the dead man and
his only relatives, contested the willon
the ground ofundue influence. TWAS
brought out in the ease that Father
Mcbride refused to administer the last
rites Of the Church to Brennan until
he signed the will. Brennan was
about 50 years old. After the will
was signed the last rites Of the Church
were administered.
Father Mcbride used to be Vicar
General of the Harrisburg diocese, en-
bracing large territory in central
Pennsylvania. and was candidate
for Bishop two years ago. When he
was Vicar-General Of the diocese he
was suspended for alleged cause, and
Father McGovern Of Danville was APP
pointed Bishop by the Pope. He re-
moved Mcbride, who is now in charge
of small parish at Bonneville, Nd.
