Packers AlIegs That Garfield Promised
immunity.
COMMISSIONER GARFIELD ASKED


Chicago, Nov. 4.-C0mplete immun-
ity from prosecution under the pend
ing indictment returned by the federal
grand jury several months ago Is
claimed by ]. Ogden Armour and the
other defendant packers and agents
charged with being promoters of the
so-called beef trust" In an addition
al plea in bar filed lately by Attorney
Miller, the packers representative.
The new plea, which came as com
plete surprise to the government, sets
up as facts that when Commissioner
Garfield Of the department of COM
merce and labor investigated the beef
business he promised the packers
that whatever testimony they gave
without being under oath or whatever
documentary evidence they produced,
the defendants should have the same
rights and immunities as If they had
testified under oath and compulsion.
Under this plea Attorney Miller hopes
to establish the fact that there was an
agreement between the packers and
the government that they should tes-
tify and produced evidence without
being sobpoenaed and the oath admin
istered, but as far as immunity was
concerned 1t should be considered as
II they had been subpoenaed and took
the oath.
The allegation of an agreement be-
tween Commissioner Garfield and the
packers was a surprise to District At
torAey Morrison and Assistant Cen
eral Paine, and it was said that Secre-
tary Garfield has been asked concern
ing exactly what occurred during the
investigation into the beef business
The plea alleges that the evidence it
was understood should not be used by
the department of justice against the
defendants. Then, 1t is declared, with
the assurance of the commissioner
the defendants appeared before him
and told concerning the things wished
to be inquired about and which are
now Incorporated in the indictment.
Notwithstanding the promises of
the government, it is declared the evil
dence produced by the defendants was
given to the department of justice and
finally to the local district attorney,
and that this information has been
used and is now being used In the
prosecution Of the packers. All of the
allegations the defendants proclaim
themselves ready to verify.

"The city rings with the reports Of

Cossacks are said to have lost over a
hundred men by bombs and shots
from windows. Cossack patrols carry
carbines and have their fingers on the
triggers. The streets are absolutely
unsafe for civilians.

ed. In the Jewish quarters bodies
still strew the streets and sidewalks.
Jewish women and children were
strangled and hacked to pieces in the
streets where the mobs gained the
upper hand. A Red Cross doctor tells
me that the Kishineff horrors were
repeated hundredfold. The students
alone saved the city from wholesale
sack and massacre.
"The military is now placing hun.

Twenty-six carts full of wounded have
just passed my door.

OLD FASHIONED FARE
Hot Biscuits, GrlddIe-cakes, Pies and

The food that made the fathers

heavy sleepiness by day and sleep

Il was rapidly becoming incapaci-

friend suggested change In my diet,
the abandonment Of heavy, rich stun

Whatever may be the experience
of others, the beneficial effects of the
change we're apparent in NY case al
most Immediately. My stomach,
which had rejected other food for 80
long, took to Grape-Nuts most kindly;
in a day or two my headache was
gone, began to sleep BEAUTIFULLY and
before a week was out the scales
showed that my lost weight was COM

ton for the Chinese empire, arrived

pires.
"The Chinese constitution will en-
brace all Of the best features of the
constitutions of America, Japan, Great
Britain, France, Germany and Austria.
The travels of the special embassy
will be ended in about eight months,
after which the ENJOYS will draw up

Mr.. Chang added that this departure
from ancient usages was due to the
gradual spread of Japanese influences
over the empire since the Russian.
