DEMAND RECORDS AT
ARMOUR co. TRIAL

Kansas City, Mo, March 30-Re-
quest for the Introduction of extensive
records of the Fowler Packing com.
pany here, a subsidiary of Armour &
Co., was under discussion when the
hearing of charges brought against the
packers by the Kansas City Live Stock
exchange was resumed today before
Judge B, T. Hainer, commissioner Of
the department of agriculture.
The plaintiffs seek the closing Of
the MistIetoe stock yards here, Oper
ated by the Fowler Packing company
for the direct purchase Of hogs from
producers. They assert that it is so
operated as to depress the prices hog
raisers are able to obtain on the pub
lie market here, because Fowler buy
ers fix their own prices and fewer
hogs are purchased on the open mar
ket by Armour interests than would
otherwise be the case.
J. Ogden Armour, president of Ar
mOur a Co.. testified yesterday that
the Mistletoe yards were operated
merely as a convenience to the FOw.
Ter plant here and to prevent the driy.
ing of hogs two miles from the Ope''
market, with resulting loss Of weight.
He gave it as his belief that operation
of the Mistletoe yards did not tenn
to depress the price of hogs generally.
