BEEF TRUST MEN UNDER ARREST
Donovan Of Montana Takes New Start
In Prosecuting Packers.

HELENA, Mont, Jan. THE last
official act of Attorney General James
Donovan was decidedly sensational
when he filed information against five
Montana state representatives of the
so-called beef trust, and secured their
arrest on a charge of conspiracy, it
being alleged that they had formed an
illegal combination for the purpose OF
controlling the prices of meat and meat
products in this state.
The men arrested were agents of
Armour & Co., Chicago; Swift & Co.,
Chicago; Cudahy & Co., South Oma-
ha; and the Hammond Packing COM
pany, Chicago and Peublo. Judge
Smith ordered their release on bonds
and directed them to appear before
him on Jan. 9.
The information is unique in that it
is the only one ever sworn to by ali
attorney general in Montana. Mr.. DON
ovan has retired from office being sue
ceeded by Albert Galen, but as the lat
ter has decided to retain First Assist
ant Frank w. Mettler, who is in hearty
accord with Mr.. Donovan's policy in
this matter, to him will fall the prose-
cution of the case.
The information is voluminous af-
fair, reciting at great length the
charges of conspiracy to control the
prices, restrain trade, destroy COM
petition and fix values. The proceed
ings were instituted under the penal
code, the supreme court having de-
cided that in the original proceedings
under the organic law that it had no
jurisdiction.
In an interview Mr.. Donovan said
that while he regretted his inability to
reach the heads of the organizations,
he regarded the agents of the alleged
trusts as no better than any criminals
and that as they persisted in violating
the laws of the state, he must prose-
cute them

Actress Edna May Gets Her Divorc.

Actress Edna May Gets Her Divorce.
NEW YORK, Jan. Miss Edna
May obtained a divorce yesterday
from Fred Titus. The suit was filed
about three years ago. The granting
Of decree has revived interest in the
stories from England during recent
years, which told of the intention of
the actress to marry various titled and
untitled gentlemen.
Recently these stories said that Miss
May would marry A. E. w. Mason,
the author and playwright. Tonight
along upper Broadway it is said that
high alliance will very soon take
place.
After the divorce was granted, Miss
May refused to be seen. Mr.. Petty,
of Syracuse, father of the actress,
spoke for her, denying that she had
another marriage in prospect.
The court proceedings today were
short, and few witnesses were ex-
amined. The testimony was highly
sensational.
Miss Mona Desmond, the actress who
was the storm center of the domes-
tic drama, being named by Miss May
in her complaint, was compelled by
subpoena to be present during the trial
to listen to the embarrassing things
said about her.
Titus was once a champion wheel
man.
