You remember that we were arrested
a year ago for obstructing the mails.
We put the general managers on the
stand and made them admit their Or
ganization. You remember that very
soon after that salaries were reduced.
That was what our lawyer discovered
that these roads had agreed to do
Then there was the fact that juror
was sick. We wanted to 60 on with II
men, but the managers objected. Why
They wanted to have that trial die q
natural death. Why? Because there was
evidence enough to send every one OF
them to the penitentiary.
Now, ouly a short time ago a very
small dispatch stating the fact that my
trial had been stricken from the dockets

that additional evidence had been found
