Charges of Peonage
Being Investigated
Greek Employment Agents Accused Of
Extorting Money from Their
Countrymen.

Charges Of peonage by Greek employment
agents are being Investigated by Labor
Commissioner Guye and City License In
spector Richard Schneider. More than 100
Greeks complained to the state labor
office that one Of their countrymen known
as Cook was getting them positions on
the Union Pacific line work and after get
ting IS as a fee was coming around later
and demanding weekly tribute on pain OF
losing the work. The men who refused TO
comply lost their Jobs.
There are labor agents in the city, ae-
cording to Mr.. Schneider. who claim con-
nectlon with the Union Pacific railroad and
advertise that connection, although the
railroad does not recognize II. The same
trouble has been discovered In Iowa. where
the labor commissioner prosecuted several
agents and the Greeks who got into trouble
we're driven out OF the state. Those who
have been having similar experiences here
are supposed to be some from Iowa.

very fair run, some $500 head more than
were here last Monday, and quality OF the

ally steady trade, and the local market was
substantially steady with last weeks close.
Desirable dry-lot beeves were compare

and warmed-up grades the demand was
rather slack and the trade slow,
The market for cows and heifers was
rather active and in some cases little
stronger than last week, particularly on the
desirable grades. Receipts included quite
a good many dry weather cows ana heiI-
ers and those sold rather unevenly, put
comparatively steady with last week. Inc
market for veal calves was about STEADY,
and there was little quotable change IN
prices for bulls, stays, ETC., as compared
with last weeks close.
Good general rains throughout the corn
belt seemed to infuse new life into tne
stocker and feeder trade, and the desirable
kinds found a ready outlet at somewhat
stronger figures. A good share OF the OF
ferings, however, were on the common ano
light order, but those sold much the same
as they have been selling OF late; oho,o.
