Two TEST Costs.

The witness brought out for the
first time that there was "back test
cost" and red test cost" used In
the bookkeeping Of the Armour Pack
ing company, the former being used as
the flat price of the animal and the
latter included freight and other items
OF expns.
TIL government contends that the
red test cost was secretly used by
the combination in the fixing of prices
% meat.
Only few questions were asked Of
Henry Vee1er on redirect examina-
tion before Mr.. Miles was called to
the stand. Mr. Miles said he severed
his connection with the Armour in
terests in 1903 and gave his present
occupation as promoter.
He told Of the organization Of the
fresh meat combine in 1898 and said
he attended its Tuesday afternoon
meetings In the Counselman building
almost continuously until 1908, rep
resenting the Armour Packing COM
pany at the meetings.
Mr. Miles gave a detailed descrlp-
tion of the business transacted at the
Tuesday afternoon meetings.
Tho day before each meeting, each
member received statemtnt showing
the number OF pounds of fresh meat
shipped into the various territories.
and the average price received, to-
gother with summary of the margins
of profits for the previous week."
said the witness.
Special Counsel Sheean showed Mr..
Miles. for Identification, a typical
statement of the weekly margins sent
out by the packers pool prior to 1903.
These figures show the average
margin obtained above the average
test cost figuered in Chicago" said
Mr.. Miles. lie said the test cost was a
uniform standard used by all mem-
bers of the combination.

lie gave the allowance made for
each by-product in the cost system
used. Mr. Miles said that under the
combination there was active competi.
tion In nearly every section Of the
country between the big packers.
The principal object of the pool, he
declared, was to prevent the Cutting
Of the market with fresh meat.

After Getting $40, His Horse Refuses

ls~Sowed His Way.

A bank robbery that brings back
echoes of the pre-statehood days IN
Oklahoma, when many famous BAN
dts operated in this part of the coun-
try, was enacted yesterday morning at
Bixby, a little hamlet about fifteen
southe east Of Tulsa, and only failed OF
probable successful completion by the
balkiness of a horse, stung into mad
ness by the bird shot from gun In
the hands of Jim Crowley
o. C. Brock last night occupied
cell in the county Jail charged with
robbery, and Sam owens also occu-
pied cell on suspicion of being an
accomplice of Brooks.
A Dish Washer Is He.
About 10 o'clock yesterday morn
ing Brock, who had been employed
as dish washer in Bixby restau-
rant for the past three weeks, strapp-
ed two walloplng big six-shooters In
his belt and walked across the street
to the bank of Bixby at time when
no customers were in the bank, walk
ed into the bank. and covering the
his guns, commanded Cashier Lips
comb to hand over what money he
had in the cash drawer. Lpscomb
obeyed and passed out a roll of bills
which the robber stuffed into his coat
pocket and then backed out Of the
door.
He darted around the corner of the
Ia n
conveniently, mounted and started off
for liberty. Had II not been for jim
Crowell he probably would have gotten
away.
Then the Horse Bucks.
While the romantic scene was being
transcribed In the bank, Crowell
started to go in at the door. He saw
what was being done and quietly
Withdrew to a hardware store next
door, borrowed a shot gun, loaded 1t
with bird shot and stationed him
self on the street near the bank.
AS Crock started on his mad race
for liberty, Crowell opened fire. the
shoe struck both Brock and the horse.
and the animal. stung by the bird shot,
began to buck and as other people
poured from nearby stores Brock
slid from the he 5e and threw up his
hands.
The money. $40 In all. was recov-
cred. and Brock was taken to the train
and brought to Tulsa under a heivily
armed guard
Suspicion WAS Excited.
Sam Owens accompanied the men
to this city and was placed under ar
rest by the sherifrs office here pend
ing an investigator Of certain circum-
stances surroundl~' the attempted
robbery. II was learned that the horse
which Brock rode belonged to owens,
and that owens was loafing around
In front of the bank at the time of the
thrilling events.
What is believed to have been a
first attempt to rob the same bank
occurred last, when mysterious
stranger was noticed hanging around
the back entrance Of the bank near a
horse hitched In the alley. Quite Q
stir was caused al the time but no
action taken. Many people Of Bixby
claim that the man was Brock, who
caused all Of the excitement yester.
