ITO this end i think the colleges and

that such a conference would result In
the discovery OF some means OF preserv-

this season so memorable"
The public school authorities az meet

Nebraska Church Club Holds It's
Annual Meeting mt the CONNER
cIaI Club ROOms-Omcers
Elected.

I'VE can make America good and great
with the Bible and the prayer book" said
the Rt. Rev. Charles S. Olmstead, bishop
of Colorado. at last nights Epiphany
meeting of the Nebraska Church club at
the Commercial club rooms. a dinner
and the annual business meeting and
election of Officers preceded the bishops
address. which was heard with interest
by the Episcopal churchmen present.
THE church should again take its
place at the head of the people and, in
stead OF following them, should be their
leader" continued Bishop Olmstead, whose
theme was "Churchmen and the Times"
You will get Christ interpreted to the
world by making the church the head Of
1t. The church has a conservative mes
sage for mankind, for the old things OF
life haven't worn out yet. All these new
beliefs and doctrines are merely fads ana
notions in religion that are not new,
after all, and they are merely would-be
remedies to our conditions that are with
out value and effect"
Considering present-day conditions, both
within and outside the church, the bishop
spoke of of the decay OF family life, the
increase in the number of divorces and
the many other ills and evils that infest
our times in religion. business and So
ciety. He blamed them to the falling
away from the church and its influence
and said there was much in our sur
%roundings to humlliate us and make US
afraid of the judgment of our fore
fathers.
THE church of God has never lacked
anything that tends for the good of man
kind. although some of its good points
have not always been brought out" he
declared. 1T is because we haven't faith,
strength and devotion enough that the
church sometimes seems lacking"
Hope for America.
Referring to his church. the Episcopal,
Bishop Olmstead stated:
My hope for America is in this branch
of the church. I think IL the people could
be fully moulded with our church GUS
toms and beliefs, they would become
gentlemen in the truest sense of the
word.
II think We ar2 the best people In the
world. Let US go still further and get
full OF the church ourselves and then

PLANS FOR PACKING MERGER
Terms of Proposed Deal Revealed by
Suit Tried in New York.

Length and Formal Statement
IN Promised by Judge
GARY Today.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1s,-The agreement
under which the four largest packing
houses of the country were to have been
consolidated was made public today in the
course OF the trial of the suit OF Frederick
Joseph against Ferdinand Sulzberger Of the
firm of Schwarzchild & Sulzberger, for re-
covery Of $500, COO OF stock which the plain
tiff charges Mr.. Sulzberger with convert
ing to his own use.
Mr.. Joseph testified that the agreement
provided for merging into one corporation
OF the Schwarzchild & Sulzberger company,
the Armour Packing company. the Swift
and Company and the Nelson Morris Pack
ing company. Provision was also made for
absorbing tho Cudahy Packing company.
Under the terms of the agreement the
stock of the Schwarzchiid & Sulzberger
company was to be exchanged for $3.50 in
cash or preferred stock and 500 in common
stock OF the new corporation. In the course
OF the acquisition of Schwarzchild &
sulzberger stock preparatory to its being
turned into the pool, 1876 shares are alleged
TO have been purchased for the account Of
Mr.. Joseph at an average price OF $73.51
a share. These shares. Mr.. Joseph declared.
we're turned over to Mr.. Sulzberger. who
represented the Schwarzchild & Sulz-
berger compauy in the merger negotiations.
Owing to tile action Of the government
and the panic of 1907 and 1908, the proposed
consolidation fell through, however. and
Mr.. Joseph requested that the stock con-
tr.huted by him to the pool be returned to
him. This Mr.. Sulzberger has refused to
do, the plaintiff alleges, and II is In order
TO compel him to do so that the present
action Is brought. Since its purchase the
stock has gained in value and is now
worth. Il is alleged, the amount sued for by
Mr.. Joseph.
