Gigantic Hog
Stealing Conspir
acy is Unearthed
Hog Ranch Near Cullom Looted in'sne ffclL striking her left shoulder
Large Number of Hogs In
vestigation Reveals.
From Thursday's Dally
Starting from the statement of a
man arrested in Sarpy county for
thicken stealing there has been un
earthed a gigantic plan cf looting
the Hayward hog ranch near Cullom
of its stock and which has apparent
ly been going on for a period of
several years, the managers of the
Hayward estate estimating that the
loss in stolen hogs has reached from
$30,000 to $35,000 in the period of
years that have marked the loss of
hogs. The large number that have
been missed from time to time had
been reported as dying but from the
revelations that were brought forth
here last night the animals no doubt
have gone on the market and been
sold. i
The conspiracy was bursted yes
terday when George Townley and
"William Robinson of the Reliable de
tective agency of Omaha arrived here
yesterday and placed the facts they
had gathered in the hands of County
Attorney W. G. Kieck and follow
ing which the arrest of Josh Ham
mond, former manager of the Hay
ward ranch, was made. Ray Denham
of Cedar Creek also being brought
in for investigation by the county
attorney and sneriff.
It is claimed that during the four
and a half years that Josh Hammond
was manager of the hog ranch there
were some 500 hogs reported as dy-
ing at one time and 700 later at an-.

Mazner was sent to the ranch as man-. ft is thouerht. in the next few davs to
ager and has Eince continued in that
capacity.
The allegations of the state are
that last Saturday Manzer was ap
proached by Hammond who lives on j
an SO acre farm adjoining the hog
ranch and asked why he was wading
around in the mud for the small
salary that he received when he
could Dick off some easy monev. The
conversation was continued and it is ecnooi anu wmcn vwu ue reupeutu iui
claimed that Hammond broached thetIie use of the Pupils.
m,tt0r f ctMiiT,? rarinart f the I The matter has been adjusted to the
hogs, some seventy-five, having them
shipped to the South Omaha market !
r ' .
Da,T e ,V . L,,,1 Wthat has been rather upset for the
be divided It was suggested that seTera,
the hogs be taken to Cedar Creek
and shipped from there to the mar
ket under the name of Hammond and
sold there.
It is claimed that on Saturday the
parties all came together at Cedar
Creek and he7e it is Alleged that
, , . . .
Denham was brought into the con
spiracy by being talked into accept
ng he shrpment "under the name !
of Hammond and sending it to thoj
market at Omaha.
The hogs were loaded out Tues
day at Cedar Creek and received on
the market Wednesday morning, but
' " . . , .r ' qualifications as well as his practi
ranch were informed by Manzer who J , . . , , . , .

had acted as detective in the affair.
and were in readiness when the hogs ;
appeared on the market to close the

Hammond and his wife it is al-
eged were in Omaha yesterday and
inquired as to whether the check for
the shipment was sent to Denham
who was to have turned it over to
the various parties in the affair.
The seventy-five hogs were of the
value of J 2.200 and the commission
house to which the hogs had been
shipped disposed of them at that 1
price.
As soon as the final chapter in the
story was made the authorities clos
ed down on the parties and last night
the arrest of Hammond was made
at his home near Cullom and he was
brought on into this city as well as
Denham and Manzer and questioned
by the ocunty attorney and I. G.
Dunn, of Omaha, well known lawyer
and attorney and adviser of the Hay-I
ward estate. After questioning tho
authorities were able to obtain state
ments from all but Hammond as to
the case.
Josh Hammond stated that he
bought the hogs for fl.200 from since tnat time recuperating. She

This morning a complaint was filed j w hen her condition became such that

The charge made against Denham
was on one count, that of conspiracy.

County Fair at
Weeping Water
Closes Friday
Large Number Are Present From
Plattsmouth and All Parts
of the County.
From Saturday's Dally
The Cass county fair, the annual
exposition that is given to show the
wonderful products of this great
county from the yields of the fields,
the great herds of fine stock of the
thoroughbred variety, the excellent
poultry, the art of the housewife in
canning and needle work as well as
the products of the schools of the
county, closed yesterday at Weeping
Water.
The attendance at the closing day
of the fair was the best that has
marked the three day exposition and
the persons who came from all parts
of the county for the big show felt
amply repaid in the fine arry of ex
hibits that had been prepared for
their inspection by the fair man
agers and which kept the crowd busy
in looking them over during their
stay in the pleasant little city of
Weeping Water.
There were special features in the
way of entertainment including the
concerts by the always pleasing
residents of this city motored over
for the big event and enjoyed it to
the utmost in the fine program ar
ranged and the opportunity of view
ing the results of the careful and
tireless wtrk of the fair managers.
The occasion was also the field day
for the various political candidates,
the democrats having their day at the
fair at this time as the republicans
had theirs on Thursday. In the can
didates at the fair were a number of
state leaders, former Governor
Charles W. Bryan. Congressman
John H. Mprehead, WR. Price, can
didate for attorney general. Col. Phil
L. Hall, candidate for state treas
urere as well as the various county
candidates being in evidence on the
grounds. J. P. Falter of this city,
j democratic county chairman presid
jed and introduced the various speak
ers. lhe main aaaress 01 tne aiier
noon was by Mr. Bryan and who
gave the following discussion of some
of the state issues:
"The frantic efforts of the repub
lican machine, backed as it is by
the utilities, such as the super-power
trust and the monopolies in the
necessaries to life and business such
as gasoline and coal, to induce Sen
ator Norris to make at least one
speech in the Nebraska campaign to
give the republican state ticket a
standing with progressives, is path
etic. "Senator Norris was dined and

an intimate friend and associate of
Senator Norris; and the senator was
beseiged and beeseeched to pronounce
his blessing on the governor and the
republican state ticket, but further
the respondent sayeth not.
"How can Senator Norris con
scientiously endorse the governor and
republican state ticket? Has Gover

that Senator Norris was a nice man,
in the form of a resolution approv

of inauguration of the president, but
did the republican convention sug

republican state convention admit
ted that Senator Norris and Senator
Howell had favored deep waterways,
but it failed to say that we also have
had deep water in several places in
Nebraska recently.
"The remarkable thing about Gov

ASSISTED IN WORK.
From Thursday's Daily
The work of fixing the highway
north of this city to connect up the
detour on the King of Trails highway
and permit the par-sage of cars and
trucks without being mired in the
mud has largely been credited to the
various trucking companies that use
the highway and who the Journal i9
informed are entitled to only a part
of the credit.
As the matter was reported it was
given out that the greater part of
the work was done by those compan
ies and it has since been called to
our attention that during the day of
making the repairs in the road,
George Jacks, Leslie McKinney and
Jess Green were there with Engineer
E. H. Douglass in getting the road
in shape for travel and they were also
partially responsible for the improv
ing of the highway, the trucking
companies hauling the ties and help
ing with their placing in the high
way. , .

mouth Man in
List of Dead
John Petty Reported to Have Eeen
Among the De.d Relatives
Here Uncertain.
The report has been received in
Omaha that John Petty, one time
resident of this city, was among 'the
victims of the great hurricane that
swept across Florida on Sunday and
practically destroyed Miami.
Mr. Petty has been residing in Flor
ida since February, 1925, and the
first intimation that the relatives had
of the death was when the name Petty
was reported among the dead and
later it was decided that this was
the former Plattsmouth man.
The mother of Mr. Petty lives here
with her daughter. Mrs. John Wynn,
and the reports of the death are not
convincing to the relatives here who
received a letter from the man dated
Sunday after the storm had swept
over the city and wMch was received
yesterday a'twr and raises a
doubt in their minds as to this be
ing the man.
The brothers who reside in Omaha
and Council Bluffs could not be reach
ed this morning by the Plattsmouth
relatives and whether or not they
have received more definite news
could not be ascertained.
Mr. Petty was a carpenter by trade
and resided here up to some twenty
years ago when he removed to Oma
ha and resided there until leaving for
Florida in 1925. and has since been
folowing his trade at Miami.
Of the family three brothers are
living in this locality, Robert and
Lincoln at Omaha, and Ilershel Petty
of Council Bluffs and the other three
brothers residing at scattered points
over the United States.
The relatives here have tried to
get into communication with the Red
Cross at Miami to receive more defi
nite news as to the death and to con
vince themselves that the man report
ed in the death list is their son and
brother.

rican that swept over Florida on last
Sunday, lajing waste the homes of
thousands and resulting in great loss
of life and property. Mr. and Mrs.

Cass County
Bridge Assn. to
Meet at Union
Urging of General Biidge Program
for the State Will Feature
Meeting October 8th.
From Saturcay's Daily
The Cass County Ii ridge and High
way association which has been rest
ing during the summer months is
resuming its activity and a meeting
is being announced for Friday eve
ning, October Sth at Union when
the association will start the ball
rolling in the interests of the state
wide Missouri river bridge program
which embraces bridges at Platts
mouth. Nebraska City, Rulo, Nia-
brora, Decatur, Blair and Omaha.
The Iowa and Nebraska state com
mission has examined the matter of
the bridges at Sioux City, Omaha
and Nebraska City and are preparing
their report for the presentation to
the state legislature. The commission
has prepared estimates cf the Omaha
bridge at $1,500,000 while the Sioux
City bridge is estimated at $600,
000. In addition to the three bridges
named in the legislative act of two
years ago the state engineer, Roy
Cochran will have the data to pre
sent covering the state wide bridge
program which embraces the Platts
mouth bridge along with other need
er structures at Rulo and the north
ern Nebraska towns, over the Mis
souri. The cost of the smaller
bridges will be far under that of
Omaha and Sioux City.
The proposed bridge at Platts
mouth it has been estimated by en
gineers could be erected at a cost of
from $300,000 to $350,000 and
those who have examined the various
sites for crorsings have been enthus
iastic over the location here where
it was planned to have the bridge
cross near the Burlington structure
and which the engineers estimate is
an ideal spot and from where the
great volume of auto travel from the
east and west could find a crossing
that woulcT open the gate-way to the
west. From this city west there are
three main roads that will take the
traveler to Lincoln and west, the
Louisville road, the Red Ball high
way through Murray and the "O"
street road through Union, while to
the north there is Omaha and the
K. T. highway leading to Kansas
City south.
The coming legislature will pass
on the state bridge program and it
is important to the residents of the
communities that are included to see
that their legislative representatives
tht are selected this fall be prepar
ed to see that every effort is made
to secure the adoption of the whole
program and that every one of the
sites named in the Cass County as
sociation program and which was
later adopted by the Nebraska Bridge
association, be selected for bridges.
At the meeting at Union the fall
program will be outlined and all
members of the association should
be in attendance. The meeting will
open at 7:30 and those who arc
boosting the bridge program as well
as better highways should be on hand
to participate in the proceedings.
