AS TO LIVE STOCK RATES
Some Light Thrown on the Effect "a
Change Would Have Upon
Shippers.

ONG, Neb., Dec. Ito the Editor OF The
Bee: In your paper of the Goth ult it states
in regard to live stock rates that a majority
OF shippers will be glad to see the railroad
return to thiG rate.
What nonsense! Show me a shipper, es-
pecially one that handles hogs, that will
agres with the railroad this point. 1
havo received a number OF letters from diff
ferent shippers, among them John Virgins
OF Columbus, who thinko that that article
might have been written by some railroad
representative. l have looked up a few,
points and find that on an average it will
make in cold weather. when We can load
pretty heavy, about So per car more after the
rule goes into effect. Not only that, but
take the average shipper, many time he
wants to ship out, but has not full load
OF hogs. He could under tho old rule buy
few cows or bulls or any kind of cattle
and fill out his load. Now, what is the
result! Simply this: Put one cow, or even
cali, in car of hogs and you pay cattle
weights and hog price. For the winter
loads. which from my place is ong,
amounts to about So per car Now is there
any reason fer this charge? 1t is goo9
thing for the railroad and the country
butchers. and them only, and it is curse to
the shippers and the thousands CT farmers
and to the packers at the yards as well.j

CHAS. MOORE IS NOT GUILTY
Acquitted of the Charge of the Murder Of
John DsMollin.
IN ACCORD WITH JUDGES INSTRUCTIONS
Defendant is ut once Rclcased-,Iury
in the Morning visit the scene
of the TrnPcdy-ENidence
Favorable TO Moore.

The trial of Charles Moore, the hack
| driver charged with the murder OF John
DeMollin, came to an abrupt termination in
Judge Bakers court Thursday afternoon
when the court instructed the jury to re-
turn a verdict Of not guilty.
This unusual turn in the case was due to
the fact that the county attorney had neg
lected to secure the attendance Of witnesses
for the state who saw the beginning of the
ARRAY between Moore and DeMollins, which
resulted in the death of the latter last July.
The attorney for the defendant took ad-
vantage of this oversight on the part OF the
county attorney and moved the court to in
struct the jury for acquittal, it having been
established by several witnesses for the de-
fense that DeMolin was the aggressor that
he struck Moore first and that even with
that provocation Moore simply pushed
DeMollin aside and that he stumbled and
fell, striking his head against the curb
stone. The point thus gained was that
death was accidental, and that Moore had no
intention of injurng DeMollin.
The county attorney had plenty of wit
nesses on his side of the case, but he had
none who would swear that they saw the be-
ginning of the trouble and therefore were
not able to say whether DeMolin struck
the first blow.
Moore was declared free before the ev-
dence had all been heard, so there was no
argument or other preliminares that usually
take place just before case is submitted to
a jury Judge Baker sustained the motion
to quash the information on the showing
made, he instructed the jury as to its verdict
and that ended the trial.
Moore took the witness stand Thursday
morning on his own behalf and told the
same story related by other witnesses to the !
effect that he simply gave DeMollin shove
and had no illwill against him or any other
reason to injure him, beyond a desire to get
away from him because he seemed to be in |
an ugly mood The jury was taken to the
scene Of the tragedy Thursday morning for |
the purpose of making personal inspection |
of the lay of the land, elevation of the curb |
stone, width of the sidewalk and so on.

Rev Louis Albert Banks, one Of the nest
vouminous OF writers on religious topics,
has brought out a new volume OF sermons
under the title of The Great Sinners OF the
Bible" The popularity of the sermons OF
DR.. Louis Albert Banks may be inferred by
the fact that this volume is the ninth that
he has issued and the reason for this is
easy to guess from a reading OF them. The
truths which they urge are important and OF
moment, and they are impressed with elo-
quence, picturesqueness and fertility OF
imagery and anecdote The present volume
is a setting forth of Christian ideals which
gives it this unique title. Eaton & Mains

You ask why are the farmers in the dealH
Because under tho old rule we could pay
more for butcher stuff than the butchers
could. Why are the packers interested?
Because large number of country butchers
send to Omaha for their meat and other
stuff that they handle. Now under the new
rule the shipper Cannot pay near as much
as tho butcher can, therefore they (the
butcher) will get this stuff at his own price,
killing it at home. as he can well well Of
ford to, therefore the packers are losing
that much trade and profit. You will find
that the shippers will tell you this. TheN
would rather buy cattle than hogs, but
under this new rule they cannot do so, only
by punching them in carlots, and that is
long job in some cases and a losing one
in most. Another thing, this business has
been tried before and was found unsatisfac-
tory, and tho railroads threw up the job and
predict this, that when there is big rum
OF stock at Omaha and trains are late, as
they are sometimes, and they have to wait
for that stock to be weighed, that there
will be some tall swearing and kicking.
Now Gee II l am not right in this. 1t does
look to me, IL the railroads understood tho
that the shipper has to con-
tend with, that they would hesitate to force
this matter further. 1t is just such things
as this that has made Nebraska a populist
state. Just such things as this that makes
the farmers and rural population always
down on the railroads.
Now, as for the shippers in general,
do not think they harbor any ll-feeling
against the railroads, but force this mat
ter to AN issue and there will be war iit
camp and no peace in the family circle. For
my part l would be in favor of shippers
meeting railroad representatives and confr-
ring together. 1t certainly would do no
harm. Wishing to hear from brother
shippers, I am, yours truly,
