serious effect on the local money market.
Millions OF dollars which under normal

packers are now piling up on Chicago
banks. and threaten TO depress interest
rates The packers are heavy borrowers
under normal conditions, not alone In
Chicago but all over the world.
They carry loans and notes amounting
In the aggregate to nearly sl0o.o0,oco. or
this sum about $40, 100000 Is carried by
Chicago banks, and since the beginning
of the strike business has contracted so
much that instead of borrowing the pack
ers are paying off loans and taking up
notes.
A prominent local banker estimates that
the packing companies has paid of el0,-

beginning OF the strike, and that they
were beginning TO retire their obligations
at the rate OF 5000, 900 a week.
