Des Moines, la. Jan. 6.-rhere is u
decidedly i'll feeling between the stock

been dealing for years. and as a result
there will be held in this city in the

not yet fixed, Il meeting of Iowa stock
shippers TO plan for organization to Off
set the recent action of the Chicago
commission houses in cutting off all
faNors. j. j. Ryan of Fort Dodge is at
the head of the movement, but shippers
in all parts of the state have become
interested in ii. The new rules Went
into effect with the new year. The last
week of December a number of shippers
went into Chicago from Ida county
with two tram loads of cattle which
they put ON the market They had
learned of the new rules which had not
yet gone into effect When the bus
mess was disposed of the commission
men with whom they had dealt invited
the shippers To dinner They refused
to accept the favors and declared if
they would make out a bill for the dim

they would pay it. There We're fourteen
of the shippers in the Ida county dele

from the commission men and declared
they would show an Independent spirit
from this time on. Il is proposed that
convention be held here and that an
organization be perfected SO that the
shippers may be in a position to re-
sist any unreasonable demands of the
commission men or stock yards man

not object to cutting off the favors. as
