HARRY J. O'BRYAN
HEARD FROM
Viii Not Be Admitted to Practice
Law in New York--CoIorado Bar

According TO dispatch from Den.
yer, Harry J. O'Bryan, a lawyer, for
merly Of that city and who is quite
well known in this Territory and In
Colorado, is endeavoring to be admit
ted to practice before the courts of
the state of New York, but is having
difficulty in doing so. The dispatch
says that O'Bryan will not be able to
practice his profession In New York.
Both the Colorado Bar Association
and the state Supreme Court Of Colo.
rado have refused to recommend his
admission to the bar of New York
state on account of alleged unprofes-
sional conduct In Colorado.
Recently Mr.. O'Bryan wrote from
New York City making application for
the usual certificate showing member
ship in good standing In the Bar Asso
citation and recommendation from
the Supreme Court for admission to
the Bar of New York
Lucius w. Hoyt, chairman of the
grievance committee of the Colorado
Bar Association, advised Chief Justice
Gabbert of Colorado, that it would not
recommend O'Bryans admission to
the New York Bar.
1t is understood that the court and
the Bar Association would have no OBJ
jections to issuing to Mr.. O'Bryan a
certificate showing that he was still
enrolled as an attorney in the state.
Harry ]. O'Bryan was the husband
OF Mrs. Mamie O'Bryan, sister of ex-
Governor NJ. 0. Otero, Of this Terri
tory, who procured a divorce from him
a few months ago in a Denver court
on statutory grounds and who is now
living with the children and with
O'Bryans mother in Paris, France.
O'Bryans escapades are well remem-
bered by many people in Denver, in
this city and in Las Vegas.

ARMOUR AND SWIFT CLAIM
BEING PROSECUTED
Action to Secure Tw-:ve
Million Dollars Penalty
for Violation of State
Law Begun.

Chicago, April 26-The Chronicle
today says: "The prosecution of the
suit against the Armour and Swift in
terests in Texas for the purpose of
securing the $12,000,000 penalty for
violating the antitrust laws may result
in tie closing of all packing plants
in Texas and the withdrawal of all
Chicago packing concerns from that
state" This was the announcement
made last night by officials OF the
Swift and Armour Companies In dis
cussing the effect of the suits brought
against them yesterday by the attor-
ney general Of Texas. The officials
declared last might that the packing
business in Texas was just being put
on proper business basis and was still
in the experimental stage. They de-
clared the question of withdrawal from
Texts had been discussed several
times and if the suits are pushed they
will be followed by the execution of
such plans as have been under con.
temptation. Their withdrawal would
mean loss of work to 5000 employees
and the removal of an investment Of
s7,000,0O0.
Packers Bitter.
The packers are inclined to be very
bitter against the Texans, and declares
that the avarice of the state will prob
ably result in its losing one Of its
best paying industries, as we'll as be-
ing the direct cause of throwing thou
sands of men out Of employment and
leaving them idle, thus forcing many
to leave the state. In addition to the
benefit Of the immense capital invest
ed in the packing enterprise In the
Lone Star State, the packing concerns
are of direct value to nearly all of
the state, large percentage of all
except the cities being Immediately
concerned in the cattle raising indus
try. Instead of quarreling, the large
cattle growers of the state and the
packing concerns should work In har-
mony and under those conditions, the
packing industry would become the
largest in the state.
