BEEF TRUST JURY
BEGINS ITS WORK
Secret Service Men Guard Wit
nesses and Contempt Charges
Threaten the Curious.

Chicago, March 22.-The special
grand jury to Investigate the beef trust
was completed today: Three vacancies
in the panel were filled and the huge
mass Of testimony available was i'm
mediately attacked.
A. J. Hoffman of Mendoza, ILL.,, was
designated by the court as foreman. "
District Judge j. Otis Humphrey
charged the jury to "present no one
from envy, hatred or malice, nor to
leave anyone unpresented for fear, ia
vor, affection, reward or hope of re-
ward.' .
The charge to the jurors was deliv-
cred in most impressive manner and
was listened to with deep interest.
Fifteen secret-service men have been
brought to Chicago. So great is the
desire Of the federal officers to main
tain strict secrecy in the investigation
that every witness who testifes before
the inquisitorial board will be closely
guarded by one Of the secret service
men to prevent his being approached
by newspaper men or agents Of the
packers. ..-' u
G.. B. Morrison, appointed district at
torney to succeed s. H. Bethea, recently
made district judge, declared that any
person detected speaking to or inquir-
ing the name of any of the witnesses
would be liable for contempt Of court.

Millions in Claims Against Failed
Investment Company in
Philadelphia.
New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service.
Philadelphia, March 22.-Investors
in the Provident Investment Bureau
would have wreaked their vengeance
upon the office last night had not the
police interfered. For two days one
long stenographer, young woman, has
faced the haggard crowds, which, thru
the firms failure, having lost their
savings, had become desperate and
wrathful.
The firm had been taking invest
ments and paying per cent monthly
dividends. What the creditors will re
ceive is not known, as no schedule of
assets or liabilities has been posted.
One attorney said last night the
claims against the company would
amount to $2,500,000, and probably
twice that sum. The only asset found
so far is small account with the Cen
trail Trust company.
The concern is closely allied to the
Storey Cotton company, whose smash
last week caused the loss of millions
to small investors. The two companies
exchanged lists, and what one did not
get the other did.
W. H. Latimer, the manager, who has
been stopping at fashionable apart
ment house, has left the city. The
stenographer tried to stem the tide of
investors, but yesterday disappeared.

Police Justice Cook Of Madison, N. j.,

collected the fines. The women abused
each other in the courtroom. Squire
Cook commanded them to kiss and
make up right there: They refused to
do it, point and called each other
more names.
This caused the Justice to remark, he
Judged them both guilty Of carrying
concealed weapons, from the manner in
which they handled their tongues, and
he imposed the fines.
Mrs. Morse went Immediately to he1
lawyer, Charles stillwell, yr., and told
him about it. He did not believe Mrs
Morse had heard the justice right in
regard to the offense, but he was con
WINGED when he saw the papers in the
case. Judge Mills set the conviction
aside and ordered the return of the
fines.

HYDE HOLDS SWAY
OYER EQUITABLE
Directors Delay for Four Years
the Naturalization aof Life In
T.. ..,.+ -..(.
surance Company.
New York Sun Special Service.

New York, March 22-James H.
Hyde has carried thru his plan Of de-
laying four years the naturalization Of
the Equitable Life Assurance society.
In doing this he has gained victory
over President James W: Alexander,
who a week ago compelled the Hyde
forces to agree to allow the 100000
.twenty-eight Of the directors to twenty
four elected by the stockholders.
Whether Mr.. Hyde's triumph will
prove to be permanent or only tenn
porary, will depend upon the courts
and the legislature. The issue is to be
fought out by those who are opposed to
one man, simply thru the ownership Of
a majority Of 100000 Of capital stock,
controlling nearly half a billion Of the
savings Of the 100000 policyholders Of
the society. Meanwhile Mr. Hyde will
continue in control Of the Equitable.
Only thirty-four Of the fifty members
Of the board were at the directors
meeting. The dummy directors put into
office by Mr.. Hyde dominated the situa-
ton absolutely. Under the able lead
ership Of Edward Fl. Hartman and
Jacob H. Schiff many Of the directors
who have been working with President
Alexander to safeguard the enormous
funds of the society by placing them in

holders, kept away from the meeting,
knowing in advance the program Of the
Hyde men to ride roughshod over their
plans to mutualize the company at the
earliest possible date.
Frank H. Platt, counsel for the Grim
minis committee of policyholders, has
issued the following statement:
The boards action Is no surprise. Forty
members Of the board owe their positions
as directors to M. Hyde. and they have
given him their allegiance. Last Febru-
airy in haste they resolved to give the pol
icyholders the power of voting immedi-
ately Today they have Withdrawn that
action and have voted to control by Hyde.
I think it is entirely within the power OF
the po!icyholders to honestly mutualize
| the society by going to the legislature
In the present state Of public opinion the
Legislature would not refuse to transfer
the voting power to the policyholders.
In any event, a single policyholder is
strong enough to GUST those officers ant
directors who have been using the soci
| ETY. for their personal benefit.

him to do. He said he declined to do
this and returned the pistol. Hargis
told him then that he would be needed
probably as witness and told him to
return when sent for.
Jeff Smith followed White. He said
that before the killing Of Cockrill,
Judge Hargis in the latter s office, de-
clared to him "Jim Cockrill has got
to be killed, for if he is not, Cockrill
will kill Callahan or me, or both Of us. -

Smith said he declined to participate
in a plot andHargis then said he would
have to get George Smith or Curtis
Jett to do it. Witness said that on
the day after Cockrill was killed, he
was in Hargis' store. Callahan and
Judge Hargis were there and when the
news came from Lexington that Cock
rill had died in a hospital there, both
smiled at each other. He said Hargis
asked him only recently what he would
testify to in this case, but he would
not tell.

do so within two or three days.
His salary will not exceed $4,000 a
year, which is the salary Of Chief En-
gineer Wallace. While Mr.. Burt will
be the active head Of the commission,
his duties will not conflict with Mr..
Wallace, who will be charged, in the
new arrangement, with the actual con-
struction of the canal.
Mr.. Burt has been in the railroad
business all his life, holding executive
positions involving large responsible
ties.

introduced and work actively pushed in
all directions.
President Roosevelt today gave an in
timation as to his plans for the reorgani-

sion and at the same time served notice
on the commissioners whose services
