ARMOUR ADMITS
OWNERSHIP OF
FOWLER FACTORY

Kansas City, Mo-, Mar. 20
]. Ogden Armour, head of Arm
our and company, was the first
witness when the department of
agriculture's hearing Of charges
of unfair practices at the Mis-
tletoe stock yards was resumed
here today.
Mr.. Armour was subpoenaed by
the plaintiffs who include rep
resentatives of the Kansas City
Livestock Exchange, together
with a large number of Kansas
and Missouri livestock associa-
tions.
Objections Sustained
Mr.. Armour was asked to ex-
plain the organization of Armour
and company, but an objection to
the question was sustained. He
testified that the Fowler Packing
company, operating the Mistletoe
yards, is subsidiary of the
Armour interests and that all it's
stock is owned by Armour and
company.
The witness said the yards
were taken over at the time Arm
our and company acquired the
Fowler properties and were con-
tinued in operation for the con-
venience of the Fowler plant.
Asked how prices paid produc-
ers at the yards were determin-
ed, he replied:
Prices Fixed at Yards
II understand we fix the price
at the yards after the hogs are
received"
Mr.. Armour said he understood
1t was a practice to have only one
shipper at a given point consign
hogs to the Mistletoe yards.
Mr.. Armour testified that ey-
cry packer In Kansas City has to
buy hogs from farmers because
there are enough on the public
market to supply the packers re-
uuirements. He said receipts at
Mistletoe yards were too small to
mitigate against the open market

SEND Mr.. HUG TO
MEET At SPOKANE

At its regular meeting last night
the Salem school board voted un-
animously to authorize George
w. Hug, city superintendent of
schools, to attend the Inland EN-
pire Teachers association con-
vention to be held at Spokane
April 8, and Z.
The Inland Empire association,
made up of educators from Wash
ington, Idaho, Montana and Ore
gon, meets at Spokane each year.
AS many subjects, believed to be
valuable to school workers. are
taken up at the annual confer =,
it has been the custom for Sc
superintendent to attend :
year.
Reinhart Employed :
The board also voted last .
to employ CHIP Reinhart, cls1-
er Salem high school stude r, IS
coach of baseball at the III
school. The action proved "0l l.
lar with Salem students wi de-
clared this morning that sn. I'D
be able to mold his material into
nine which can accomplish
much. Reinhart, who was form
erly a baseball star at the Uni
versity of Oregon, is well known
here and has appeared in the
Senators lineup ON many occas-
ions. In years gone by he was one
of the most brilliant lights in
Salem high school athletics.
Secretary William Burghardt,
Jr., was authorized to advertise
for bids for wood to be used in
the schools next year. Last sea-
son the directors were forced to
spend about $4,000 for fuel, but
it is believed that this year that
the wood will be materially
cheaper.
At the next meeting of the
board, it was decided last night,
teachers for the coming year are
to be elected. Superintendent
Hug expressed the opinion that,
with the expected increase in
students, a few additional instruc-
tors will be needed. At present
there are 1870 teachers in the
Salem public schools. Next year,
Mr.. Hug opined, it may be neces-
sary to employ 1876.
The subject Of crowded condi-
tions in the schools was again
under discussion by members OF
the board last night, but no ac-
tion was taken to provide addi-
tional quarters. This year there
will be graduating class of ap-
proximately 179 students from the
Salem high school, will no less
than 800 students are expected
in the incoming class next fall.

cipal defense witnesses in the
third manslaughter trial of Ros-
coe c. (Fatty) Arbuckle, has dis

She was a maid at the hotel St.
Francis who testified in previous
trials that shortly after the party
IN Arbuckle's suit, where Miss

the illness that was followed by
her death four days later, she
wiped off the door on which, ac-
cording to prosecution testimony,
finger prints of Arbuckle and Miss
Rappe subsequently were found.

rubbing with a dust cloth was
sufficient to obliterate any finger
prints which the door might have
shown.
The defense affidavits of her
disappearance were introduced to-
day as preliminaries to a motion

rial be read.
In reply to testimony yester-
day by Mrs. Virginia Breig, sec
.'etary to DR.. Francis B. Wake
lield, at whose sanitorium Miss
2appe died, regarding an accusa-
ton she said Miss Rappe had made
against Arbuckle, the defense TO-
day called as a witness Miss Lu-
ellie Dunno, secretary to Gavin
McNab, chief counsel for Ar
buckle.
Evidence Challenged.
When Mrs. Breig testified yes
.erday that she telephoned to Nc

threat, but Miss Dunno, testified
.oday that she was on the tele-
phone at the same time as McNab
and that Mrs. Breig actually made
such an assertion.
Miss Dunno started to relate the
conversation, but was stopped by
he court, pending arguments as
to the admissibility of her testi-
mony.
DR.. E. M. Rumwell, who attend
ed Miss Rappe from the day after
The Arbuckle party until her
death, said she told him on his
iirst visit that she had been intoX-
icated the day before. His dag

fore her death. They might have
been caused by some one taking
hold of her arm forcibly, he said.
