 inghouse Butchered.
 CHICAGO, Nov. 20.-Diek is dead. People, strangers and residents of Chi cago, who have visited Armour's pack inghouse to see how cattle and hogs are killed never left the place without see- ing one of the greatest confidence play CTS and swindlers that was ever known. This prince of deceivers was man. moth brown steer known as Dick and whose companion, Phil, still carries on the swindling business at the old stand.
 Dick had been carefully trained in the business. Western cattle, when un- loaded at the stockyards, are unusually wild. It was the business of Dick to mix with the drove of cattle for a mo- ment and then lead them toward the cattle killing pens. At the gate leading into the "beds'' Dicks business was to turn sharply and, as if accidentally to one side, and let the unruly western cattle rush into the pens from which they would be taken to be killed. Dick would return to his old stand and wait for the next consignment. Of late, how ever, Dick has been lazy. He performed his duties in slovenly fashion and prodding would not make him hurry. When killing began at midnight last night, he too, was driven into the pen into which he had led so many and was killed

 J. w. Payne Arrested at Denver on
 Telegram From California.
 DENVER, Nov. 90.-James ". Payne, a prominent citizen of Los Angeles and contractor of cereal supplies for United States government military posts west of the Mississippi river, was arrested in hotel in this city, charged with embezzlement and felony, on a telegraphic request from Chief of Po- lice Glass of Los Angeles.
 The specific charge against Payne is em bezzlement of moneys received on account of his contract from the chief quartermaster of the department of Colorado, Major Atwood, with intent to defraud his bondsmen. It is said that some time ago he borrowed money of them, promising to pay them out of money he received from the war de- partment. In order that they might be doubly secured he gave them power of attorney to open his mail and hold any drafts or remittances.
 According to allegations Payne wrote Quartermaster General Atwood direct. ing that future drafts be sent him at a new address. Mayor Atwood sent him a draft for $500. The bondsmen's sus- picions were aroused by receiving no letters bearing the government stamp, they instituted inquiry and revealed his alleged duplicity, and took steps to &c., cure themselves.
 Payne denies the charge of embezzle- ment streneously.
