PACKERS DENY TRUST STORY
south Omaha Men Say Report of
Gigantic Combination IL
Pure Fake.

Inquiry among all the Packing house
managers. with the exception of Michael
Murphy OF the Cudahy Packing company
who Is out of town. has failed to develop
any evidence so far as South Omaha Is
concerned that there is any truth in the
reports published from Chicago to the eff
feet that all the Chicago packers had
agreed to enter a mammoth combination
under the head OF Louis F. Swift. The cap
italization of the big concern was quoted
at S5OO.OOO.0OO.
Mr. Edwards, the manager of Swift and
company, branded the report as a pure fake.
He said he had heard nothing of any such
meeting as was mentioned nor did he give
any credence to the thing even possible.
The same opinion was given from the gen.
eral managers office OF Armour & Co., and
the Omaha Packing company. Mr.. Culver
of the Omaha Packing company said that
while it might be possible for the Chicago
packers to have such an important meet
ing; still he thought II could not have taken
place without an inkling Of the kind being
| heralded to this point. No such information
has been received and he considered the
story unfounded.

of many pages, giving directory of, at
torneys, rules of practice and recording
each case. together with its docket and
page and the attorneys for both sides OPP
posite each printed page was blank page
for notes. To print 300 of these each year
cost the county from 81. 200 to $500.
The commissioners were not sure they
had the authority to order the dockets
printed and the bar committee will take
the matter before the court to secure a
decision on the power OF the board In the
matter The abbreviated dockets printed
last year cost only about $500.
