tion plan of President Frank J. Hagg-
barth, by which the National Live
Stock Association was to be remodeled
and its control vested In board COM
posed of representatives of the trades
and interests. allied in the raising of
live stock, has been torn to pieces so
far as the railroads are concerned. For
two days an executive committee COM
posed OF three representatives of each
industry has been working on the pro-
posed reorganization plan, and 1t will
require at least one day more to finish
its work. No report will be made to
the convention before Friday morning.
Before it was definitely concluded to
prevent the railroads from acquiring
membership in the association a bitter
fight was waged in the committee

There was a lively debate over the
