CHICAGO, Feb. 16.-J. Ogden Ar mour. president of Armour & Co. and Nelson Morris. chairman of the board of directors of Morris & Co. were ask ed today by attorneys for the stock yards employes to appear as wit nesses in the packers wage arbitra- tion proceedings being heard by Fed eral Judge Samuel Alschuler.
 Council for the packers protested against the summoning of their eli ents. declaring that they would not be able to give any information on the subject being investigated that could not be furnished by other of fieials or by documentary evidence. but Judge AIs-hule- cver-ruled the objection and decided the packers should appear.
 Attorney Frank p. Walsh declared that f the packers fail to appear Monday he will appeal to Secretary Of Labor Wilson 70 compel their at- tendance.
 Counsel for the employees and pack CTS clashed frequently in discussing the terms of the mediation agreement under which the arbitration proceed ings are being held
 At one point Attorney James G. COndon for the packers said in ad- dressing Attorney Frank P Walsh: Why don't you turn around and ad dress the audience as it is apparent what you are saying is intended more for the crowd than for the ears of the arbitrator"

tContinued from Page Onel of capturing the most notorious trio Of murderers that has graced Arizona in more than a generation.
 The Fourth Recruit.
 That another man has been added to the fusitives is the opinion of many of the officers who are now in he posses and though no confirmation has been secured, the belief seems to be shared by Sheriff Wheeler. This man is Tom Kelly.
 Kelly is an alleged deserter from the United States army and lives in the neighborhood of Light. He is thoroughly familiar with every part of the Chiracahaus. It is pointed out that without expert guidance, the Powers boys and Sisson could not have made such rapid progress nor could they have succeeded in secur- ing provisions and horses. That Kelly may share the same fate as the other fugi,ives, in case of Q fight. appears certain.
 Horses Stolen.
 Three or feur horses were stolen from the ranch in the Chiracahuas. :n the neighborhcOd of the trail the fugitives took yesterday or Friday night That the men stole the ami mals is possible but the fact that the dogs were able to lead the posse over the mountains indicats that the outlaws are still travelling afoOt.
 That the men were able to get over the crest of the mountains is consider CT remarkable. At this season of the deep on the summits of the Chira- cahua range. Though the snowfall this year has been small.it is still reasonable to conclude. say many mea who have hunted in these mountains. that there is enough snow to be considerable hinderance to persuer and persued
 How the fugitiVes are securing food is a question which is being discussed by the officers. There are but few ranches or cabins in the Chr;acahuas. In several cases ranger service sta ticns may contain food, but no report has reached the outside regarding the entry of any of those places. That the men could carry a sufficient sup ply to last them oversa long period is mconceivable.
 Closer and closer are the tenacles of the law drawing around the murl- erers Of the Graham county officers. Minute by minute the officers are elim hating the fugitives' chance for es- cape. Slowly the probability of the'r capture becomes more imminent. The chase will have been on one week from this evening. It will have been a fitting climax should the men be captured today and there are many in Cochise county who are forecast ing such a conclusion to the greatest man hunt of recent years in the T7ri- ted States.

ARMOUR AND MORRIS ORDERED ID
 APPEAR BEFORE FEDERAL MEDIATOR

The public has a right to know everything that is done here" angrily replied Attorney Walsh.
 Attorney Walsh read into the rec ord a letter from the womens trade union league of Chicago urging equal pay for men and women performing the same class of work in the stock yards and reciting that the plan was already in successful operation in the following occupations: Eookbinders. printing press feeders, linotype opera tors. elevated road ticket sellers, com mercial telegraphers. laundryworkers, waitresses, nurses and attendants postoffice clerks. musicians, teachers. boot and shoe workers, garment mak CTS. glove makers, hat and cap makers.
 Mrs. Laura Ccvington. negro. who said she had been 9 social settlement worker. politician and storekeeper since the death of her husband sever al years ago. testified that she was employed by Wilson & Co. and Llb- ty, McNeal and Libtv for several weeks a year and a half ago as a can ner. She said the sanitary conditions at the plants were bad and that negro girls employed there were discriminate ed against in many ways.
 She said none of the women earned more than $9 week at that time and many did not get more than S7 week for a day of 10 hours.
 Counsel for the packers objected to all her testimony saying that the con ditions complained of had been cor rected and was therefore not under consideration by the arbitrator
