Rates Favor Missouri River Job
bers Rs Against Kansas Points.

Topeka, Kan, Oct. flames G.
Lincoln general freight agent for
the Missouri Pacific railway Friday
filed with the state board Of railroad
commissioners a supplemental state
ment of rates for use as evidence in
the Hockaday Hardware case. In this
statement, Mr.. Lincoln specifically ad-
mits that in upward of 20 towns west
of Salina and a similar number west
Of Wichita and Hutchinson, the Kan
sas City, Atchison and other Missouri
river jobbers are able to ship goods
from the Missouri river into these
towns at less cost than they can be
shipped from Salina, Hutchinson and
Wichita, thus practically admitting
that the railroads give the Missouri
river jobbers absolute control of al
the territory west Of Salina, Hutchin-
son and Wichita in many towns which

PACKERS WILL TESTIFY.
officials of SchwnrxschiId & sulx-
berger VIII Tell What They
Know Regarding Packers.

Chicago. Sept. 2S.-Max Sulzberger,
vice president of the Schwarzschild &
Sulzberger Packing company, and e.
B. Fish, one of the traffic officials OF
the company, it is announced, have
been subpoenaed by the government
as witnesses in the beef trust cases
to testify against Armour & Co. and
the other defendants. Two other en-
ployes Of the Schwarzschild & Sulz-
berger company have also been sub
poenaed by the government.
1t is reported that Sulzberger and
the other three attaches of the COM
pany are in possession of facts con-
corning a meeting of packing officials
held within the last year, almost with
in the time of the grand jury investi-
cation. It was learned, 1t is declared,
that a representative of the Schwarzs-
child & Sulzberger company was seated
at the table about which the packers
gathered. The details of this alleged
meeting will, it is hoped by the pros
ecution, be exposed before the jury
which tries the packers. Attorney
Weissenbach, however, strenuously de-
MED that the Schwarzschild & Sulz-
berger company is turning states evil
dence in order to "get even" with the
other packing companies. He declared
that the witnesses will go on the stand
under protest.
After search of many weeks the
government officials have succeeded in
finding an important witness, George
L. Coffin, manager for Hammond &
Co., at the stock yards. He has been
out of the city, 1t is declared. for some
time.
