leading beef packing companies and
firms and also against a large number
of individuals, restraining them from
the provisions of the anti
trust act, and so far as the department
is advised they have obeyed the in
junction. If you have any evidence

yesterday:
II don't know yet just how we will
'roceed in this matter, because I have

'eef trust Is violating the law, but
What evidence can be produced I do
lot know just now. The matter will

CAUGHT IN THE ICE.
Two Boats Sent Up Signals Of Distress
Last Night on Evanston. but An At
tempts to Reach Them Were Futile.

Chicago, Feb. 13.-Two boats, be-
lieved to be the Empire State" and
the IS. and M. p" Of the Barry
Brothers transportation line, are
caught in the ice of Evanston, IL
miles north Of this city, and at fire.
quent periods during the early part
Of last night they were sending up dis
tress signals, The boats were sighted
about five miles OF shore in the late
afternoon and several men attempted
to reach them by crossing the ice.
This was found impossible, however,
because Of the roughness of the ice,
and open places In the drift pack.
The crews made an attempt to reach
the shore, but were compelled to turn
back. The life-saving crew stationed
at Evanston placed their boat on run
ners and made an effort TO reach the
boats, but, after going out three miles,
were compelled to give up the effort,
the hiIlocks Of ice being in many places
IL to 20 feet high. and It was found I'm
possible to drag the heavy boat around
them There Is no chance for the boats
to be released until the wind changes
to the west or southwest.
