ditions in Allen county because of the
operation of the bridge trust are re-
ported by the grand jury as even worse
than expected. Of the "a indictments
returned there are two each against
Former County Commissioner T. G..
Burns, George w. Kanawl and Albert
Hetfner.
The exposures regarding the bridge
trust operations here are said to be
startling, and show that the county
has paid from three to five times what
should have been the ordinary cost of
bridges. The most sensational evil
dence, it is said, came from the bridge
trust agents, Jones T. Adams, of
Findlay; John Dun, of Columbus, and
John Reed, of Canton, each of whom
was exempted from any legal prosecu-
lions.

ing was given and promises made
that all children under age would be
discharged. Mr.. Hoffman, says he
Will prosecute every violator of the

other respects he is able to make a.
very favorable report on the factory

Packing Plants.

All the Swift & Company plants are
located at the great live stock mar
kets, in the heart Of the great agri-
cultural sections, where can be pur.
chased the finest grades of cattle,
sheep and hogs. We have seven pack.
ing plants, employing at each from
two to eight thousand persons.
The following gives the locations
and sizes Of the different plants:

Louis. st. Joseph, st. Paul and Fort
Worth. The same methods of pur-
chasing cattle, sheep and hogs prevail
at all cities. At Chicago, which is
the largest market, there are about
two hundred and fifty buyers, repre-
senting packers, local slaughterers in
various cities and exporters. OF this
number, less than a score are employ
ed by Swift G Company.
The farmer ships his live stock to
Chicago, consigns them to commits
sion firm at the Union Stock Yards.
who sees that they are unloaded and
put in pens. Then the buyers inspect
them, make their offers to the COM
mission dealer, who accepts or rejects
as his judgment dictates. All buying
must be finished at o'clock each day,
and the buyer must pay spot cash.
II the commission man has no salts
factory offers, he can hold his stock
over to the next day. He gets his
commission from the farmer, and nat.
urally strives to get the highest pos
sible price for his client.
Wholesale Distributing Houses.
A wholesale distributing house is a
giant refrigerator. but instead Of
shelves there are trolley rails, from
which are suspended hooks to hang
the carcasses. Some of the houses
cost as much as hundred thousand
dollars to build and equip. AS rule
they are Of pressed brick, the insides
being lined-floor, walls and ceiling
with highly polished hardwood The
floors are covered daily with fresh
sawdust, and all are kept spotlessly
clean. There are over three hundred
of these wholesale houses in various
cities of the United States. and the
public is always welcome to visit
them.

The large packing houses will, how
ever, always have these advantages:

This total is realized from the sale
of fresh meats (beef, mutton and
pork. provisions. produce (poultry,
butter and eggs), soaps, Clues, oils,
bones. fertilizers, feathers, castings,
hides, wools, peIts and other by-prod-

Margin Of Profit.
The industry is operated on a mar
gin of less than cents to each dol
lar Of sales. Swift G. Co. do not sell
at retail. Their entire output is sold
at wholesale to many thousands of
dealers in various parts of the world.
There are hundreds of local slaughter.
ers throughout the United States,
who buy their live stock in competi-
ton with the packer doing an inter
state and international business. Like
wise the packer must sell In compe-
tition with the local slaughterers.
There are no secret processes In the
industry, no complicated and expen-
sive factories, and as live stock can
be purchased in almost every hamlet
and city. and the preparation Of
meats is simple in the extreme, local
slaughtering will long remain fac
tor in the production Of fresh meats
and provisions,

negro neu and charged them with
rambling. The we're arranged before
County Judge Andrews, where the
sheriff explained to the Judge that ne
had hoped 10 catch some of the profess
sional gamblers who lie In wait for the
time when the working men have
money and :hen fleece them, but had
only caught nine hard working men,
all OF whom live in town, and asked
that the court be light on them,
when asked by the court what they
had to say, each one explained that
thew had only started but had In
tended to gamble when the sheriff fell
down among them. All plead guilty
and the tine was placed at $500 and
cost in each case, except a one-armee
man who was let of with cost alone.
The Judge gave them lecture ane
told them il ever they came up before
him again on that charge be would no
be light on them,
The fine was paid by each, and it I
boped they will profit by the judges
words. The regular gamblers are thu
ones the officers are after, and It u
likely they will get them.
