The other principal stockholders with
holdings of $2j0,03O eac.A are gradually
leaking out and show that the Great

Il proves that when the announcement
that the Great Western road would extend
TO Sioux City was made, it was we'll
defined plan on the part of the Swifts to
enter into the Sioux City live stock busI-
ness with a generous hand. The negotia-
tons have been carried on with such
secrecy that it has been impossible to Sc
c;lre from Swift or other packers ad
missions confirmatOry of the deal.
1t has become apparent that a recent
purchase OF eighty acres of land near the
Yards is for the purpose of charging the
yards and probably for site for a pack
ing house. The price paid was 500 an
acre. 1t was bought through q Chica go

he would force the markets growth.
The purchase of the Sioux City yards
involves $1,000,Oc0 as consideration and
probably another million in the plant for
