TO APPEAR BEFORE
SUPREME COURT
Mr. Armour Can Tell All About
Price of Beef
EVERYTHING MUCH HIGHER

Kansas City, Mo, April &c
w. Armour, head of the great
Armour Packing company, today
stated that he would appear in
person before the supreme court
to answer to the charge filed by
the attorney general that the com
pany belonged to the beef trust,
and that he was confident that he
could settle all doubt in the minds
of the people that there was no such
thing as a beef trust. He said
the price of beef was controlled by
the natural conditions of the live
stock of the country, and not from
the beef companies or packers
The shipments, he said, had fallen
off wonderfully in the last year,
owing mostly to the shortage of
feed and range.
For instance he said the receipts
for the present year have fallen
under those of last year as follows:
Hogs, 250,0O0: cattle "A. 900; sheep
1900 He also stated that the
natural conditions of the country
was responsible for the rise in
coal, lum Der, furniture, feed and
provisions, and with everything
except the cost of labor.
With millions of idle capital in
the country it was preposterous to
presume that trust could even
force prices so high

prominent persons asked for pro-
lection from the marshal. Most
of these youngsters are sons of
very prominent Florence people
and for the sake of their parents
the names for the present, at least,
will be withheld from the public
