theUm : . ] The question whether cattle nnd
lioijs inlseil v\c. t and noithwest of the
Mls'oini liver aie lo pay tiilmte lo Chicago
or Omaha packeis , talsed by cITotti now
IK Ing made to o.slaliJIsh adillttonal packing
hour-es at Omnha , is attracting miicli atten
tion nmong local packets who , It Is thought ,
nre looking with nlaiiii upon the rapidly in
creasing facilities anil business of the cattle
nnd hog slaugliteilng gentry in the enter-
pilslng city by the Dig Muddy. Andy Haas
Is In Omaha representing ceitaln Chicago
capitalists who will at once begin the con
struction of n lioii o with n capacity of n.OOO
ntilmalsaday. Mr. McNeil , also rcpicsont-
Ing Chicago capitalists , Is theie with like
Intent. Many of the operators and
Hpecnlatois In provisions on the boaul
of trade have felt a crowing Inteiest
in the cattle and hog pioduct of Nebraska
nnd the tcnitoile.sot Wyoming , Dakota nnd
Montana , and several , notably II , II. Wearc ,
have made n number of visits to these re
gions , vvheie cattle can bo raised at nominal
expense. West and noi ( Invest of Omaha ,
thousands of hogs aie raised , which , it Is
claimed can bo bought at less cost In Omaha
nnd shipped as poik lo the cast and Km ope
than to send it on the hoof to Chicago. Cap
italists hoie who aie supposed to bo Inter
ested in new developments In Omaha gen-
nally decline to say much about their plans.
' Theie Is enough business for both of us , "
Bald Chailes L. Hutchtnson , of the Chicago
Provision and Packingcompaiiy , when asked
what cITcct the opening up of huge packing
establishments In Omaha would have on
those already established In Chicago.
" 1 don't think It will Interfere with the
Chicago market , " said Nels Moil is , picsl-
dcnt of the Fall bank Canning company.
When nsked If ho was inteiestcd In the
Haas Omaha packing house , Mr , Moirisic-
) ) llcd , "Mr. Haas represents certain capital
ists , and ot course their names cannot be
given. "
"I think the tendency will bo towaids a de
crease of business here , " said Michael
Cudahy of Armour & Co.

How the Freight Itntc Wnr Affects All
Western Business.
li'mcAHO , June 2 . [ Special Telegram to
the Uii : : . ] "The cut to Omaha on freight is
now an open one , " said a coiiliaclliittagont to
day , and Is about 50 per cent fiom the ( miff.
There is also a cut to St. Paul , but it is a
quiet one , nnd Is not neaily so seilous as ic-
portcd. Theio is no Hat 10 cent rale. 1'iist
anil second clisses me piobably shaded. The
Omaha cut affects business clear aero-s the
country just to that extent. All houses with
ngents or blanches at Council Illnffs or
Omaha arc icbllllng and theio Is no way of
pievcnting tliem. Pi elty neaily every ship
per can lind souu body to icbill hlsgoodsif
liu can save liom twenty-live to Idly cents
iier bundled on Height. The cut on bt.
Paul is about In the position that the cut on
Omaha was bufoie the Chicaga. JSuillii'jrtun
iV Qulney made an open one. There Is some
unsteadiness In latrn , that Is ceitaln. Just
ns soon as their competitors can IIx the case
they will iinnouiico an open war rate. There
Is no change In the passenger war. "

U'ctloit from either thecounty or state author
ities , the Luke Shore railroad olllclals oigan-
i/eil a defense In their own behalf to-day
which pio\ed successful to the point ot
enabling the company to send out eight heavy
freight tiaius beliiie nightfall , and permitting
tlnee to come Into tlio elty yaids from the
east. The company procuied the sen ices ot
one hnndied men. who weio armed by the
railioad company with Winchester niag.ulno
i Hies. These men were sworn in as special
Town of Lake police und acted under orders
of t'.ochief of police of that village. These
men were placed on guaid In tlie extensive
switching yaids of the railway at Foilv-lirst
and Koily-thhd stieets. In addition to the
miiitlal foice , a squad of men under William
Plnkeitun appealed at the yaids and weie
placed on th'1 locomotives and t'i eight trains
as last as they weie made up. Sixswitcli
engines weie Hied up and , beaiing men car
rying Ihe formidable looking Winchesters ,
moved up and down the load from tliu city
limits to the Indiana state line to give warn
ing ot the gathering of any body ofstiikers.
At Koity-thlrd stieet the police had--averal
skliinlshes witli the stiikeis eaily In the
day and tlnee m rests weio made. Hut It was
lound needless to exercise nny special vie
lence. The stiiKors appealed to be disin
clined to bring on a conflict with the men
canning the lilies. During tlie toicnoou u
deputy .sheriff visited the scene and foimally
lead the lint act. to several small gioups of
men near thu railioad tiacks and then sent a
deputy on boaid each of tlio switch engines ,
( jumps of stiikeis remained on the State
street Intel sections near the railroad tiacks
dnrliu the entile day , but no one of their
number was ventuiosoine enough to attempt
the dangeious p.ut of pulling a coupling pin.
The woik ol making up the Hist freight train
was completed at pi eel sely noon , and it at
onee started south. The tialn consisted of
fouitcen loaded cars of pcilshable Iioiirlit.
Aimed dej titles weie on the locomotive and
a man sat at the end ot each car , making two
persons to guaul each coupling. Passing be
tween tlie armed men patrolling thu tracks ,
the tinln pioceeded slowly to Knalewood.
Ciowdsat the stu-et inteiscctions jeeied at
the guaids and train employes , but ottered no
violence. Leaving Kngtuwood the train was
given full speed and passed through
Orand Crossing and South Chicago to
the Indiana state line without
incident. Tlio company had taken the pre
caution of .sending a squad ot Pmkei ton's
men to the state line , as It was Intimated
that the stilkers contemplated mailing an at
tack on the tialn at that point. The train
pioceeded on to Millet's Station , lud. , with
out any sign of trouble , wheio the guaids
weie relieved and retinncd to the city on an
in-bound tiain. Pivo other tialns were made
up in quick succession and sent out of the
city under similar conditions , and befoieli
o'clock two delayed west bound trains had
ni rived In the city under guard.
Theofticiils ot the Lake Shoie road ex-
piessed the view this aftcinoon tliat the
stilko was practlcalfy ended. They state
that they will , however , maintain their pres
ent strong aimed men till all semblance of
tioublehas disappeared. The strikers had
little to say dining tliu day as to their con
templated course , but have , as yet , displayed
no Indications of their intention to surren
der. They held several consultations with
switchmen from the other roads In the city ,
but the result of thu conference was not dis
closed.
It has been asceitalned that there wcio
four men shot on Saturday afternoon during
the chase of thu tinin to Knglcvvood. Their
names aio caicfully suppressed. Two of
them aie as yet nna'jlc to bo about , while the
two others are walking around.
It Is understood to-night that the Lake
Shoie.stiikeis will endeavor to precipitate a
pcneialstilke on all roads leading into the
city.

The chief of police at the town of Lake
appealed at Hie extensive switching yauls
ot the Lake Shoio lailroad at 8 o'clock
this moinlng with a police force of 100 men ,
including specials and Plnkeiton police , and
at once began the work of clearing the yards
ot strikers and idlers. Yeiy few or the latter
had enteied the yauls. but remained In a
laige group just beyond the railioad tiacks
intently watching the movements , of
the lalhoad people. Several hundicd
men , however , lemained In the vlclnltv of
thu round house and the cais ol the LakeShoie

lice to move. Clubs were tfiawn and the po

which at that tlmo was ovei $ J per he.id , Is
now 7"i cents per capita. The total debt to

The far-seeing wisdom ol Samuel J. Itan-
dall limiting at an early hour to day tlie
'
general debate upon the land clauses o'f the
sundiy civil bill to two hours , was
fully denionstiated before that debate was
finished , and was probably the oulv thing
which saved the'house from a riot and the ne
cessity of expunging tiom the Hecoid in the
future some good big chunks ot histoiy and
unpaiUairicntary language. Mr. Cobli of
Indiana and .vtr. Laird of Nebraska differed
so widely and emphatically regaidlug the In
trinsic value of Mr. Sparks to this gieat eov-
crnraent that It seemed they would stop little
short of active veibal assault had not the
gavel of the chairman been brought into
requisition ns a peacemaker. Laird , who has
been for some time aching to
climb Mr. Sparks lor vviongs done
constituents , made a twenty minutes' speech
which mctaiihoilcally wiped up tliu lloor with
the commissioner ol the geneial land olllce
and lelt little of him olliclally but old clothes
and bones. .Mr. Cobb , of course , as a demo
crat and chairman of the committee on pub
lic lands , piocccdcd to defend the. commis
sioner , without rlivme , reason or logic , for all
his acts. As Mr. Cobb Is never air. Cobb on
the lloor of the house If ho doesn't have the
base ball club by tlie butt end , lie pioceeded
to get his 1cm tangled In a good sized blun
der , which was nothing moio nor less than to
get Cougicssman Laiid confounded with his
bi other , a heavy land owner in Nebraska ,
now dead , and tochargo the honorable gen
tleman to his face , through tliu medium of a
special agent's icnort , with all thu crimes ,
misdemeanors and felonies that the average
land thief In pursuit of his calling can bu
guilty of. The result of it was
that when .Mr. Laiid again got
the lloor , the house couldn't get close enough
to the democratic side ( whither Mr. Laird had
gone ) to see the fun , and Mr. Cobb was toasted
by the shrill voiced leader fiom Nehiaska
In a way that he is not likely soon to lorget.
He was shown. In no mild language , how he
had got tlie confusion of the average laud
agent's report worse confounded , and tlien.
In a little side eloquence , Mr. Laird defended
the memory of his brother In a way that.
backed up by Mr. Sparks own njonts. made
Cobb so mad he attempted to delend his own
view of the rase , and sat down nt the end of
his time a pullinc , led laced failure.

wime here , attcr getting thu memoilnl , In

Its debate upon the postotllcu bill to-day , the
senate showed a disposition to Insist upon an
appropriation for the transportation ot ocean

most emphatic of all. Thu members of the
house appear quite as determined In their
opposition to the measuie. anil neither will
yield without a long struggle. The president
Jms given notice that he will not sign uny
midnight legislation , and that will
prevent the bills being nished
through , as Is usually the ease on
the last day of thu session. He can take a
bill and keep It ten days If hechoOscs , and
conirress has got to wait for him to consider
it. It Is believed that he will hasten an ad
journment as much as he can , but will op
pose hasty legislation , and It would bu just
like him to veto one of the big appropriation
bills because of boiuo bliiglv uUjcvtluuublu
