"And that was to be paid to your
Eyes, to my firm. All moneys were
paid to me in New York, I think.
In 1908 we received sums amounting

what he collected from all roads for

This money witness said, was for

T. H. McKittrick, president of the
Hargadine- McKittrick Dry Goods conf
pany Of st. Louis, was a witness in the
morning. He had employed Thomas In
1902, he said, to perform various du-
ties connected with the firms freight
business. The contract was signed in
New York. A second contract was
mailed to the firm in st. Louis for
shipment. Thomas was paid $500
year salary. The firm notified him
whenever 1t bought goods in New
York, the understanding being that
The arrangement would be advanta-
geous to the firm. Mr.. McKittrlck told
N much detail about claims for dam
lges, overcharges and other forms Of
,laims, all of which Thomas was to
adjust. The agreement continued un.

/ Kansas City, Mo-, May 25.--The tes-
timony in the freight rate conspiracy
case on trial in the United States court
here showed Thursday morning that
George L. Thomas. freight broker, OF
New York, and L. B. Taggart, his
clerk, must have been very busy men
for several years. According to this
testimony they had routing con-
tracts with the largest wholesale and
retail firms in this city and st. Louis;
attended to the shipping Of all their
goods from the Atlantic seaboard
and even from points in Michigan and
Pennsylvania; collected on all the
loss shortage, damage and oYercharge
claims and were generally useful in
a satisfactory and beneficial way.
It appeared, too, that notwithstand-
ing that large sums Of money, always
for claims" were sent by Thomas to
Kansas City firms, none Of these firms
kept accounts of such moneys. The
witnesses could not remember the de-
tails Of transactions in which only
few thousands Of dollars were involved
and, in strong contrast to one witness
Wednesday, they could not recall ever
having heard of such a thing as a re-
bate.
J. X. Durham, president Of the
Burnham, Hanna, Munger Dry Goods
company, said his firm paid about
$4,000 year in incoming freight"
charges. He had known Thomas for
six or eight years in New York, where
the firm has an Office. He had only
a verbal contract with Thomas, where
BY he, Burnham, was to pay him 81 900
a year for attending to the freight
business Of the firms Kansas City and
Detroit houses. The arrangement con-
tinued for several years. Thomas was
to route the firms freight The irm
has twenty or more buyers and they
are not all competent TO route their
shipments, witness said. A man was
required to attend to the collecting Of
claims Of all sorts.
