ARE STILL PROBING.
The Beef Trust Grand Jury Resumes
Investigation.
WILL LOOK INTO REBATES,
Wholesale Meat Dealers Testified as
to the Hardships Placed on Small
Dealers by the Trust-cattIe Buyer
on the Stand.

Chicago, April Prices paid for
bates granted the packers by railroads
for the hadling of the same and the
private accounts of some of the pack
ing concerns are to be closely inquired
into within the next few days by the
federal grand jury which is investi-
eating the business affairs of the So
called beef trust.
Another phase of the question of the
alleged combination of the packers
in violation of the Sherman antitrust
law and Judge Grosscup's Injunction
which is to be inquired into is the
price paid by the wholesale dealers
to the packers for meats. Witnesses
who can give the jurors detailed and
accurate information along these lines
have been subpoenaed and appeared
at the investigation today. Some of
these witnesses testified and, although
they refused to make public what they
told the jury, it is said large amount
of data valuable to the government
was secured from them.
James A. Barrett, a wholesale meat
dealer, at Morrill,, Wis, was one of
the witnesses who testified today. He
is said to have explained to the jurors
the alleged hardships placed upon the
small meat dealers by the packing
concerns. He explained in detail the
prices paid the packers by the whole
salers.
Mr.. Barrett was followed by Samuel
Crobinneheimer, a cattle buyer for
Schwarzchild & Sulzberger, who is
said to have testified concerning the
price paid for live cattle by the pack
ers. Patrick Cassidy, traffic manager
for the National Packing company,
testified concerning the cost to the
raiser of shipping cattle, and the ar
rangements the packers have with the
railroads for handling live stock and
dressed meats. Altogether ten wit
nesses were heard today.
With the exception of the Sunday
adjournments, the jury, it is said, will
now proceed steadily to the end OF
the inquiry. The United States at
torney has announced that May Is
would probably see the close. 1t is
said the hearing of the plea and de.
murrer of Thomas ]. Connors, the in
dicted superintendent of the Armour
company. will be disposed of before
the jury presents other true bills in
volving persons on charges of tamper-
ing with witnesses.
More complaints of interference
with witnesses reached the United
States attorney and Captain Porter
of the secret service, during the day

told him to walt during the next two or
