CONTRACTS DIVIDED

All day Friday the state board Of con-
troll wrestIed with the packing house
combine. and everything Indicates that
the packing houses came out ahead.
The board of control was unable to
break the combine, and the contracts
were distributed just about as they have
been In the past.
There was big wrangle over the
award Of the butterine contract. The
contest was between Swift and Armour
Hammond of St. Joe also submitted a
bid, but he was outside Of the contest
Swift's prices were one cent a pound
above Armour, but the claim was made
that Swift butterine is better than that
Of Armour.
Last year the contract was divided,
each firm being given three months
This year the board and superlntend-
ents of several institutions rOwed about
the matter all Friday afternoon and
were unable to agree among them
selves Some were in favor OF giving
the whole contract to Swift. because
they would get better grade Of but
teriue; some wanted the whole thing
to go to Armour, because his price was
lower. Others thought that the contract
should be divided as in the past. which
arrangement tends to make both SIDES
keep up to the agreed standard.
The prices on meat gave every indi-
cation of being prearranged. One mem
Der of the board said: 1T is my opinion
that the bidders or the meat contracts
knew two weeks ago exactly what
would be bid, and who would get the
contracts"
Another member said 81 am not say
ing anything. but everybody who takes
the tables of bids can draw his own
conclusions. which ] imagine won't be
far from right"
Simply to illustrate the remarkable
similarity OF bids. it is only necessary
to cite the prices bid on mutton by
Hammond of st. Joe and Swift of Kan
sas City. These two firms were the
low bidders for all the Institutions of
the state on the item of mutton, and
the following werez3he low bids they
submitted:

my manager wired Billy Nolan that the

day and place our forfeit"
Manager Humphreys said that he
would post the forfeit money in twenty
four hours if Bob Deadly signs the
agreement allowing 80 per cent of the
gross receipts. He is willing to take
the short end of the percentage, be
cause he feels that the people want to
see the boys come together and does
not want to see the fight fall through.
He says the bout will surely take place
if he has to take the worse of it hnan-
cially.

This shows that on six out Of the nine
schools. the two firms were tied. The
board ruled that as Hammond was a
st. Joe concern and Swift is located in
Kansas, the law required that all the.
ties be decided in favor of Swift
There is a variation Of only a small
amount on the bids all along the line,
but the result seems to have been care

house shall supply certain portions Of

The variation in price to different in
situations is due supposedly to the diff
ference in distance and freight charges.
The prices to the Winfield and BelOit
institutions are higher than to any other
schools in the state. Kansas City gets
the lowest prices on meats, because it
is ia the same town with the big pack
ing houses.
The best contract secured by the Chas.
Wolff packing company is for supplying
the Topeka asylum. It win supply
lard and lard in cans to the Topeka
asylum. 1t will also supply hogs to the

So close did the bids run that in six
