Cut Out Middlemen.

Omaha, Neb.-The fight between the
packers and the stock commission men
over the purchases Of "she stuff" sub
ject to post-mortem examination, took
a new turn when Armour & Co. pur'
chased 800 cows direct from the cattle
raisers, subject to the new rule Of the
packers governing this class Of live
stock.
Commission men at all yards are ad,
vising shippers and raisers not to ship
stock until the new order is rescinded.
This is the first break in the cattle
growers line. Armours' manager said
the "she stuff" was purchased at NOR
NAL fiugres," but refused to state the
actual price.
Commission dealers upon the live
stock exchange are wrought up over
the direct purchase by packers from
the shippers instead of having the sale
pass through their hands.

Following the arrest of Carl II. Dun.

the destroyer.
One OF the detectives of the private
agency which figures prominently in
the case solemnly assured me that
they had the goods on him." that he
was sent there by one of the Western
Federation unions"
There is no question that Duncan Is
n crank of the dangerous type. and 1t
is the part of wisdom to hold him in
custody. He will be arraigned Friday
on charge of carrying concealed
weapons and burglars tools.
Chief Francis has refused to get into
panic over the fears expressed by the
private detectives. and while he recog-
nizs the danger of permitting his pris-
oner to run at large. he Is acting with

of the Chamber of Deputies, and was
said to be determined to have his claim
legally established at any cost.
The case was taken out of the civil

the Supreme Court. The question of
the competency of the latter tribunal
was then brought forward, with the
