SEVEN - TWO STOCKMEN' KUCNlTE BOTH SOCIETIES RATIFY PLAN OF AMALGAMATION. Sheepmen Want Slow Trains to Haul Their Stock to Market National Wool Growers' Association Elects Officers Grazing Problem. Denver, Jan. 31. Consolidation of the National Live Stock association mid tho American Stock Growers' as aocintion was effected here by the an nual conventions of the two organiza tions. The American National Live Stock association Is the nnine adopted for the amalgamated body, which rep resents 20,000 stock growers, and Murdo MacKcnzie of Trinidad, Colo., was unanimously elected president of tho new nsBocia'tlon on a rising voto in joint convention of tho delegates of the two old organizations Mr. MacKcnzie has been president of tho American Stock Growers nHsocintion since its organization in the city a year ago by seceders from tho Na tional Live Stock association. This split was caused by tho decision to give representation in the stockmen's conventions to railroads and packers. In tho new association, with which will be ainiiated forty-live subsidiary associations, only stock growers will bo represented. The sheepmen have ideas of their own concerning n modification of tho law requiring cattle to be unloaded every twenty-eight hours while In transit. The National Wool Growers' association at its annual convention hero adopted a resolution favoring a change in tho lnw making the mini mum running time of trains carrying sheep sixteen miles an hour. Tho resolution also had a clause which Jjropohcri a change enabling tho ship per of live stook to have the unload ing done every thlrty-slx hours, If a request In writing 1b made of the rail road. The sheepmen insist that they be not compelled to unload at night, claiming that it is difdcult to bundle sheep in the darkness of night. Tho changes proposed by tho resolution referred to have the sanction of the National Humane society. Another resolution adopted favors an increase in the annual appropriation Tor tho support of the bureau or animal in dustry from $25,000 to $1250,000. Offi cers wero elected as follows: Presi dent, Senator Francis 1C. Warren ot Cheyenne, Wyo., re-elected; vice presi dent for the east, Mortimer Levering of Chicago; secretary, George 3. Walker of Cheyenne; treasurer, A. J. Knellln of Chicago, re-eleclod.

A plan pre sented by tho stockmen's oinmittcc provides a system for governing the range, and met tho hearty approval of Mr. Plnohot. Ho said that already ho had put Into orfect somo changes along tho lines of the changes ho hart recommended and would innko addi tional recommendations when the oc casion presented. Ho told tho com mittee that tho president was deter mined to enrry out his plan of leasing tho rnngo, nnd In doing so tho inter ests of the. stockmen would bo given every consideration.

Anticipating the ouster Biiit In preparation by Maywood Maxon of Decatur, the Standard Oil i company of Kentucky has made prep-' aratlons to withdraw from Illinois ' after Jan. 31.

I Arguments on Point Contended For Will Be Heard. Lincoln, Jan. 2C Challenging tho Jurisdiction of Judge Lotton of tho supreme court, the stato succeeded in having tho hearing of the John R. Lucas habeas corpus enso postponed for a day. Attorney General Brown wanted a ruling on whether or not a single judge could authorize a writ of habeas corpus, and the matter will bo discussed. Lucas was sentenced to lifo impriB onment for tho murder of Clydo Les ter, In Phelps county, Dec. 0, 1904. Hcforo he was brought to Lincoln to prison the case was appealed to tho supreme court, which reversed and re manded the case for a now trial. The district Judge of Phelps county has since then refused to llberato Lucas on ball pending the new trial. Judge Letton granted the counsel for Lucas the requested writ of habeas corpus to compel tho district Judge to allow tho prisoner to bo freed on bail. Lucas claims that ho shot Lester In self-defense, but tho prosecution proved that tho man was unarmed nnd that ho had been in an attitude of supplication, with his hands up, when the shot was fired. The two men had a dispute over back wages which Les ter claimed were due him. FIGHT ON HOME CO-OPERATIVES. Nebraska Officials Watch With Inter est Prosecution of Chicago Concerns. Lincoln, Jan. 20. Nebraska officials lime been watching with interest tho pro,.cution of the promoters or tho Continental Financing company of Chicago. It Is the old co-operatlvo fight over again and Secretary lloyso of the state banking board is deter mined to prevent all "wild cats" from operating in tho state. As the fight against "homo co-operative associations," as they aro called, originated in Nebraska, where public sentiment was first directed ngalnst them, tho Nebmska officials watch with Interest any movement against the concerns In other states. Tho con cerns pretend to operato on a plan similnr In a way to that of building and loan associations, but in reality are far different. Each victim is sold a contract for a homo or other prop erty, for which a certain monthly pay ment per $1,000 Is required. Of this ' assessment a certain portion Is sup j posed to go townrd maturing con I tructs, another portion Into a sinking i fund nnd a third portion to tho ex pense fund of tho company. Tho com i pany promises to mature contmcts as I fast as the maturing fund nnd the sinking fund permit. Each investor Is Induced to believe that his chances of maturing n large contract beforo ho has paid in more than a few assess ments are very good.
