crimes, the infamy of all infamies, and

poison that is slower but just as sure?
The continued use of alcoholic bever-
ages of all kinds blunts the moral SEN

trust will obtain a pOstponement when
the government case against it comes
up for hearing in the federal courts in
Chicago next Monday. The attorneys
for the trust, it is thought, will put in

low a continuance until Aug. 4.
AS a matter of fact, the beef men
have no intention, it is said, of ever
facing the evidence against them now

rary injunction against them to be
made permanent but in the meantime
will have formed other plans to con-
tinue in business. Whether this will
be by consolidation is not known.
