CHICAGO, Dec. 11.-That Armour
& Co, made S7,127,924 above taxes,
expenses and interest on is bonds
in one year has aroused Charles
Smith, head of the Peoples institute
and he demands an immediate gov
eminent investigation.
By reason of his position MIR. Smith
speaks as one with authority. No one
in the United States knows more OF
+he conditions of the poor and the eX-
orbitant prices demanded for the
necessaries of life, ch. eff of which Is
meat. espite the denials of the Chi
cago kings of the packing industry,
Mr.. Smith lays the responsibility 70:
raising the prices of meat beyond The
reach of the laboring men and his
widows and children directly at the
door OF the packers.
At the Armour and Swift plants viz
orous denial was made to the charges
of Mr.. Smith. The packers in one
voice exclaim that the increased
price is due TO a shortage. At the
stockyards today an investigation re
vealed the fact that the receipts have
been larger than during the previous
yea.
