Ingr Ktumpa Knila at St. I'aul.
Mr. William Kennedy, advertising man
ager for The Bennett Co., has received u
letter from the manager of the Grtwn
Trading Stamp company at St. Paul re
garding a boycott organized by the St.
I'aul (iroceis' association against the ope
ration of the ubiquitous little green s Uker
some time ago. He says: "The Bpcrry &
Hutchinson company brought suit against
the association for Interfering with their
business. The case was heard before
J lid He Lewis In the district court, and the
learned judge has lust handed down Ins
decision, which In aubatance is as fol
lows: "The court declares that A. J. flies, act
ing as president of the Grocers' associa
tion, J. J. Ryan, Its secretary, and J. V.
L.ux. a prominent member and one of lis
board of directors, deliberately took steps
to Induce many St. Paul grocers to break
legal contracts with the Sperry & Hutch
inson company.
"It declares thal the other members
of the Grocers' association hud little or
110 part In the contract breaking cam
paign, and little interest In It. The efforts
to force St. Paul grnoera to repud'ate legal
obligation. and deliberately refuse to carry
out contracts Into which they bad entered,
the court finds, were conllned to the men
mentioned, and against these the court di
rects a permanent Injunction."
The derision of the court la the end uf u
long right by the Urocers' association
against the trading stamps. Its oftkers
thought it pomlble to force retailers to
take a hostile stand. They thought it pos
sible to force them Into breaking their:
contracts, and In one or two instances suc
ceeded. The court now rules against audi
proceeding and sayg that the defendants,
officers of the Orocera' association, had 110
right 10 take the stand they adopted.
The suit waa one of the incidents of the
campaign opened mid waged by the retail
grocers Hgaingt the trading stamp feature
of the retail trade.
The members of the Grocers' aaocla
tiou as well aa the officers were made de
fendants. It was begun prior to the time when the
plaintiffs began to do business in St. Paul
and during the existence of the V'nlon
Trading Stamp company, which sold out to
the plaintiff December 21, 1U0J.

Judge Munger bus handed down a
memoranda opinion in the case of William
Reese against Wtitaewe Reese, Omaha In
dians, remanding the case back to the dis
trict court of Thurston county. Nebraska,
from which it was transferred to the
I'nited States circuit court, on the general
ground that 110 federal iiiestion is involved
lu thu case.
The' suit is an Intricate one, involving; a
number of peculiar points of law which, in
the opinion of Judge Munger, will have
eventually to be settled by the I'nited
States giiivtuu court.
The defend nit is the widow uf Julia
Reese, an Omaha Indian, to whom certain
hinds in controversy in the suit were al
lotted. I'pon the death of John Reese the
title to the lund descended to his son,
Omaaglirc, whose death shortly followed
that or his father. The widow then took
possession of the land as the helr-at-luw
of her deceased husband. She subse
fluently married ag tin. one Harlan, and
has in the interim leased the land tu other
partus and devoted the rental proceeds to
her own uses.
Thu plaintiff in the case, William Kersu,
is the father of the deceased John Reese,'
and he claims the land as reverting to him,
as being the nearest of blood kin to John
Reese. He not only claims the land, but
dejiiands the rental proceeds which have
in the meanwhile- amounted to sumo JS00 or
more.
Two or more uitii vcuurg to the suit claim
some right to the premises through relit
lionshlp to Reese. Among them is Mrs.
Anna Sloan, wife of Thumug L. Sloan, who
asks that ttie Indian agcnl, J. K. Mackay,
withhold certain lease funds In his posses
sion that have accrued from the rental of
the land until the matter can be definitely
settled by the courts.
Judge Munger, in his decision, holds that
neither Mrs. Sloan nor J. F. Mucav run be
come Intervenurv in the stilt, on the ground
that they have not been Invited to inter
vene by either of the nriiieimil Hiiu.niM
and that there is nothing garmaln in their
intervenors that has any special bearing
on the case.
In the abstract the case is regarded by
Karuter fetephau Madly Hurt. .
After he had learned that be was 011 the
wrong train Frederick Stephan. a farmer of
Wall Lake, la., Jumped from a Hurling

When he learned uf his mistake from the
.conductor the train had developed a good

Judge Munjrer as one ror the consideration

TRYING TO CATCH "BIG" NT AN
'lleef Trust" (iraiul Jury Would ! In
dict ,llluli Officials f pnek
Ing t'imeern.
flllt'AiiO. April i;,. The grand jury in
vestigating the ullcgcd "Kcef trust'' made
specHI efforts to secure enough evidence
from two women and one man to indict a
high official of the leading packing firms
in l.'liicago. The chaise Is attempting to
Influence witnesses. The throe witnesses
were summoned on forthwith subpoenas
and were rigidly Muestioneil,' but failed
to tell as much as hud been expected.
Although indictments on the charge
named have been returned against live per
sons, It Is claimed that efforts are still
being made to interfere with government
witnesses. ,
It Is reported that the first Intimation
of the alleged interference with another
witness waa gathered from the testimony
of Kdwin Fish, on whose testimony four
employes of Schwarzchild & Sulzberger
were indicted Thursday.
Mrs. Richard W. Howe, wife of the head
of the casing department of Swift and
Company, was the woman summoned be
fore the grand Jury today. She would not
discuss the nature of the evidence
ga.ve.
Subpoenas have been Issued for
women, wives of men employed by various
packers. All of these men are now in Can
ada and subpoenas for the women have
been issued In connection with the disap
pearance of their husbands. They are Mrs.
Irving A. Vant, wife of the assistant sec
retary of Swift and Company; Mrs. K. A.
Allen, whose husband, now with the Na
tional Packing- company, was formerly
secretary of tin Hammond Packing com
pany, Mrs. James Mrennan, whose hus
band is a department manager for Swift
and Company; Mrs. A. Tt. Fay, wife of
the traffic manager for Swift and Com
pany; Mrs. Frank A. Spink, wife of the
manager for the National Packing com
pany; Mrs. Kred Wilbur, wife of the man
ager of the hide, tallow and casing depart
ment of Swift and Company.
It could not be learned tonight whether
or not any of the subpoenas had been
f ei ved.
Another delay in the healing of the case
of Thomua J. ("miners, the indicted general
superintendent of Armour Co., wus
granted by Judge l,.mdls todny by agree
ment of counsel for the packers and for
the government. The matter went over
until next Saturday.

The Central Commercial Teachers' asso
ciation Is to hold its annual session nt
Rnyles' college on May :'4. 25 and 26. This
is a big association of the bends of the
commercial college and embraces a
membership coveting all of the larger
institutions in the states of Illinois, Iowa,
Suoth Dakota, Minnesota. Nebraska, Kan
sas and Missouri. Over 20b representa
tives of the various schools are expected
In attendance at the convention. This
convention will also be attended by the
representatives of the various high schools
which conduct commercial departments.
Omaha Is rapidly being recognized as one
of the great commercial college centers
and the fact that this convention Is to
be held in Omaha is a strong Indorsement
of the Omaha schools, as well as a rec
ognition of this fact.
Oannha has five conimerclaJ colleges,
and the Omaha High school also devotes
a department to this brunch of education.
There ere three large schools. Boyles'
college has Just completed Its new build
ing and the new home of the Omaha Com
mercial college,, nt the corner of Nine
teenth and Farnam streets, Is under good
headway, so that It will probably be com
pleted for the fall term. The Nebraska
Ruslness college occupies two floors in
the Hoyd theater building nnd has a
very large attendance. The Van Bnnt
school In the New York JAtt building
limits Its attendance, because Mr. Van
Bant Is taken up with the publication of
the charts on touch typewriting, of which
he is the author. The Omaha Business
university Is the youngest school of the
five.
The Central association developed from
the Iowa association, which, wto year
ago, inv'ted representatives from the
other states to participate, and the name
was changed to "The Central Commercial
Teachers' association." The meeting at
Waterloo, la., lust year was largely at
tended and It Is expected that there will
be even a greater gathering in Omaha
next month. Mr. A. C. Van Sunt is the
president of the association. A strong
program hns been arranged. Among the
prominent Omnha people who will address
the meeting are the Rev. Michael J.
O'Connor of Crelghton university, who will
speak on "Psychology and Its Relation In
Teaching;'' prof. A. H. Watcrhouse, prin
