ABOUT BEEF BARONS
JUDGE BARROW HAS RECEIVED
TESTIMONY FROM MISSOURI.
WILL CHARGE GRAND JURY
HOW TO PROCEED IN SECURING
THE NECESSARY EVIDENCE.

Copies of Testimony and Report of
Special Commissioner in Big Mis-
souri, Cases Was Received Yester-
day MOrning-Report in Morning
News That Packing Houses Had
Been Fined $4,000 Each widely
Read-COnvictiOn Was Secured on
the Testimony which Has Been
Furnished Judge Barrow.
The effort to secure evidence to prove
the operations of the beef trust in
Chatham county, will Rf renewed by
Judge Barrow. Tuesday afternoon the
matter will again be brought to the
attention of the grand jury, at which
time Judge Barrow will submit the tes-
timony which was adduced before the
commissioner in the big Missouri cases,
which he received yesterday morning.
The testimony consists of printed
copies of the evidence before Special
Commissioner I. H. Kinley at jefferson
City. On this the court found the de
PENDANTS guilty and imposed fine of
$4,000 in each case, with an alternative
big fellows are given thirty days in
which to pay the penalties. The report
in the Morning News of the action of
the court was widely read, and caused
great deal of comment
Chatham's Packers.
Judge Barrow says that there is
enough law in Georgia to convict the
beef barons, and 1t is his intention to
DO everything in his power to bring TO
justice the trust which, as stated in
one of his charges, applies the thumb
screw of hunger to the community.
The five packing houses which were
fined in the Missouri court, and against
whom injunctions have been issued in
the Illinois court, all operate in Chat.
ham county. They are the Armour
Packing Company, Cudahy Packing
Company, Hammond Packing Conn
pany, Swift & Company and Schwarz-
child & Sulzberger.
The copies of the testimony which
will be presented to the grand Jurors
are intended to give them some idea of
the testimony necessary to secure a
conviction and the line along which to
work. These copies contain all of the
questions and answers in the suits, and
will be invaluable in assisting the
grand jurors in their investigation. 1t
goes to show that there was a com
bination of the packers to maintain
trust prices; that the representatives
of the packers met on certain DAYS to
fix prices for the current week; that
rebating was done; that the same
prices prevailed at all the coolers at
the same time and that no competitor
could enter the business without being
crushed out by the combine.
Can't Get n witness.
The difficulty in Chatham county is
to obtain witnesses. So far the grand
jury has not been able to secure one.
In the cases which were tried in Mis-
souri,, where, it is said. the people hold
that seeing is believing, one witness
was secured who let the cat out of the
bag. He told just what was done at
the meetings and who was present
If such witness could be secured by
the present grand jury, the matter
would become interesting indeed.
The matter will be discussed at the
Tuesdays meeting. This is an adjourn
ed meeting, the grand jurors not hav-
ing completed the business before
them at the last session.

AN ARIZONA JAIL.
1t Ia Cut Into the Solid Rock and Is
Safe and Dry.

1t Ia Cut Into the Solid Rock and Is
Safe and Dry.
From the Scientific American.
One of the strongest jails in the coun-
try is located in Graham county, Ari-
IONA, in the town of Clifton.
This community is situated in val
ley on one side of which rises a hill
composed principally of quartz rock.
When the county authorities desired to
have place for combining prisoners it
was decided to make an excavation in
the hillside. which was done by blow
ing out the rock with explosives.
The opening was made merely large
enough for one man to pass through
without difficulty, while the interior
was eXcaVated like a coal mine and di-
vided by natural partitions into four
cells. No effort was made to finish
the interior of the cells, the roof and
sides being left in the jagged condition
caused by the blasting.
To admit air and light several holes
were made in the hillside, also by
means of explosives, and the opening
secured by bars of steel about an inch
in diameter, driven into holes in the
rock and cemented.
lie GIlLIdllCS WdS 1dSLCtitu NY fIledHS
of a door, also composed of steel bars
but as a means of further protection
and to provide accommodation for the
sheriff and his officers an artificial
wing or vestibule was constructed of
rough masonry, the stone which has
been blasted out of the excavation be-
ing used for this purpose. The vesti-
bule is divided into two sections, so
that, in order to reach the Jail proper,
one must go through three barred
gates.
While the cells are but four in num-
Der, each is large enough to hold sew
eral inmates, and this novel Jail can
accommodate a score of persons at one
time, If desired.
Although the walls sides and roof are
composed of rock, the interior is dry,
and the inmates suffer far less discom-
fort than many of those who are placed
in artificial structures.
The thinnest part of the wall of this
iail is over six feet in thickness, so
the Jail, besides being flreproof, is GER
tainly secure.

CHANCES YOU DAILY TAKE,
Some of the Risks of Everdny Ex-
istence.
4, From London Answers.

From London Answers.
You may cross the three most dam
gerous streets in Manchester, on an
average, 5000 times in safety, but the
S,001st time you will be run over. If
you are not, somebody else will be in
your place for the average a year
never fails by more than a point or
two, either here or in London. But in
London you can only pass the crossing
at Blackfriars Bridge, which is the
most dangerous spot in the city, $50
times. You may be the lucky person
who escapes by chance, but somebody
Is certain to suffer to keep the average
up. counting the accidents over a space
CT fve years up to date. Next comes
Tie Mansion House crossing, with 100
to l chance. Glasgow is rather I'M
lucky in this line, with 1000 to 1 chance
for each person who crosses, which is
high as provincial cities go.
Not many people who occasionally
find themselves in the country, or who
live there, give much attention to their
chance of being gored by a bull. Yet
they have small but certain chance
OF that misadventure, and the odds
against 1t, in your own case, for in
stance, provided you are not a farmer
or have the care of cattle, Is just $780,
9iE to l. This leaves out all children
who are not old enough to run the risk,
and all people who never leave the
towns. But your chances of being re
moved from this world by violent
means through any of the various risks
the country offers between being acct
dentally shot and being run over on
the roads is one in 5000, as against
your likelihood of meeting with a quiet
ending in the natural way.
Should you drive a horse or pony
and trap, it is only 5000 to 1 that you
are not killed, which seems a high per-
centage; but few people guess what a
large number of fatal trap and car
riage accidents occur, and are only
heard of locally, whereas a motor car
fatality is blazoned all over the coun-
try. However, your horse and trap
may not kill you, but merely necessi-
tate your return home on a shutter and
i'll a damaged condition, the odds
against which taking town and coun-
try together, are only 800 to l. Even
the best drivers seldom realize how
completely, after all, they are at the
mercy of the horse and what a small
thing will cause an accident.

FREE LIBRARY PLAN
IT'S CONDUCT To BE AGREED UPON
AFTER APRIL 9.
OF THE JOINT COMMITTEE
FIVE REPRESENTATIVES, OF THE
LIBRARY WILL BE ELECTED THEN.

Mayor Myers Will Appoint Five
Committee Will Settle on De-
tails of Management-Amon Mat
ters to BE Decided Is Choice of "a
Librarian - Probable That Hon.
william Harden VIII BE Retained
Because of His Fitness-In Di-
vision of the Library's Property
Society Will Retain Historical
Books and Works and Free Librn-
ry BE Assigned the Remainder.
The free library secured by the agree
ment between the city and the Geor-
gia Historical Society will be estab-
lshed shortly after the society's next
meeting, which will be held April 6. At
that meeting it is expected all the pres
ent officers of the society will resign.
and there will be an election when the
five men who are to represent the So
ciety on the joint board of control of
ten will be selected.
When these men have been selected
and the contract with the city signed,
Mayor Myers will appoint the five men
that are to represent the city in the
management of the affairs of the free
library, and this board will then settle
the details of the future conduct of the
institution.
Among the matters to be settled is
the choice of a librarian. 1t is expect
ed that there will be no change in the
office, and that Hon. William Harden.
who now has that position. will be re-
tanned. This is rendered almost GER
tain, because of Mr.. Harden long con-
nection with the institution and his
thorough familiarity with the duties of
the position as well as the contents of
the library.
Another question that will come up
is that Of a division of the books and
pamphlets. The view has been advanced
that the purely historical books and
other like works that would be of no
particular interest to the public at
large should be taken in charge by the
Georgia Historical Society, and that
the popular books, fiction and the like
should be left to form the contents of
the free library, the property of the
historical society to be open, however,
to the reference of any person desiring
1t upon the receipts of permission from
the proper source.
