oeipt of an anonymous letter declaring

Il don't know whether the letter is
authentic. Or hoax said Mr. Cudahy
to reporter. st will pay no attention to
it. and certainly have no intention CT let
ting up on these men. The writer. or
writers of the letter, directed me, if
agreeable to their proposition to let them

ments in newspapers Of Omaha, Chicago
and Milwaukee, but 1 don't believe they
will ever have the pleasure of reading
anything from me in the advertising col
urnns of any paper"
