BANK MESSENGER sURRENDERS
Refuses to Talk Until He Has Con
suited His Lawyer.

New York. Oct. 19.-George Armitage, the
missing messenger Of the Bank of New
Amsterdam. walked into the Tenderlofn
Police Station to-day and gave himself up
He declined to make any statement as to
the missing funds of the bank. amounting
to S. 9O0 Armitage was fashionably dressed
and did rot seem disturbed by his position.
Detectives tried to get him to make state
ment. but he declined to discuss his case.
Its no use, Sergeant" he said. "YOn
can't pump me. 1 have decided to say
nothing until I see my lawyer. and maybe
/ won't say anything then"
Armitage had only 31.40 when arrested. He
was the messenger for the Bank of New
Amsterdam, and after he disappeared drafts
and collections representing many thou
sands Of dollars were returned to the DanK
by a colored woman. This incident gave
rise to a theory Of foul play, which the
police later discredited.
Armltage's accounts, according to the
bank officials. show a shortage of $500, OF
which sum 5000 is covered by fidelity
bond.
The woman who returned the $4,000 worth
OF drafts taken from the Bank OF New
Amsterdam when the messenger disap-
peared so mysteriously. is Mrs. Isabel
Quagh. colored, dressmaker of Brooklyn.
Mrs Quagh claims that the package con-
tanning the drafts was turned over to her
young son by a well-dressed woman ana
that the youth was given a dollar to con-
vey them to his mother. who sent the
package back to the bank by express.

MAY SHIP ALL THEIR

Cattlemen and Kansas City Stock

Serious Disagreement.
REPUBLIC SPECIAL

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Kansas City. Oct. 19.-Followine on the
heels Of news that the Armours are to az
pend 100000 in st. Louis comes news Of
one Of the most bitter fights in the Kansas
City stock yards that has ever been waged
there. 1t IL charged against the manage
ment Of the yards that the only result will
be the forcing OF cattle by the thousand to
st. Louis or the Chicago yards
IT." said one Of the heaviest shippers to-
day. the st. Louis men can get feed-in-

will absolutely ruin this market and make
theirs. Nothing can prevent the disaster"
So far has the quarrel gone that a delega-
tion Is preparing to set out for Boston.
there to interview Charles Francis Adams
president Of the stock yards company.
The trouble arises from the fact that the
yards people drive cattle into the nearest
pens. The commission men want them
driven. or '.yarded," as they phrase II. in
pens which they have always used. Until
month ago the commission men them
selves unloaded the stock and drove the cat
tie to their favorite pens. SO located that
always their Office force and customers
knew where to find them. The stock yards
company early In September served notice
unload cattle. As they saw in this . saw
ing OF expense to themselves, the comma
sion men aS1ented.
Everything went well until last Monday.
when the management announced that, ow-
ing to the immense amount OF work It in
voived. after that date Its men would turn
the incoming cattle to the first empty pens.
the result being that a commission drm
would find its cattle scattered all over the
three miles Of yards.
1T was all trick from the start" pro-
test the commission men. THE manage
ment knew when It started out that II In
tended to-. resort to the hrst-eome-first-
served policy. We cannot do business that
way -1
What will be the result?'
You mean what has been the result. The
result has been that stocimen Will not
stand the treatment. and they are going on
through. They want to know where their
cattle will be unloaded. As they want to
try two markets instead Of going direct to
Chicago. they VIII 60 to 81. Louis dfst.
provided they can get the usual unloading
privilege"
About forty commission men met to dis
cuss the matter further. but they were mo-
titled from the executive otices OF the yards
that the company could not recede. as no
other position would be tenahle.
