INVESTIGATING THE
GREAT BEEF TRUST
MORE THAN USUAL NUMBER OF
WITNESSES EXAMINED.
The "Etna Company" Is Now to Be
Placed Under the Calcium
Light.

Chicago, April 11.--More than the
usual number of witnesses we're on
hand today ready for examination by
the federal grand jury. Some Of
them were packing house employees
who had been subpoenaed during the
night. At least twenty were exam
ined during the days session, which
was longer than usual.
District Attorney Morrison and as
sistants worked late last night over
some important issues said to have
been disclosed by yesterdays wit
nesses and rs a result deputy marshals
were hurried out after midnight.
What the nature of the new matter
is could not be learned, but 1t Is
generally believed to have connection
with concern known as the "Etna
Co." which, it is alleged, is dunn
my" beef trust corporation, which,
for two years past has been regulat-
ing the sale price of castings for all
the big concerns. Castings include not
only sausage skins, but various grades
for musical instrument strings and
other purposes and the enormous ex-
tent of the business in this product
from cattle and hogs is just beginning
to be realized by the government
officials. 1t is asserted by some well
posted butchers that the "Etna Co., /"
has held matters in such shape as to
absolutely dictate the price at which
all Castings" shall be handled, enabl.
ing the people hehind it to realize a
80 TO 40 per cent profit on this pro
duct.
The district attorney secured, sew
eral days ago, number of papers con
tanning records of the Etna Co
These were placed in trunks guarded
by secret service men. Fearing a
plot by the beef trust to seize the
trunks and balk the investigation, At
torney Morrison today appeared be
fore Judge Sanborn and obtained Q
court order impounding the records
until they are ready to be exhibited
20 the jury.

HORSE FLESH
Said to Be Substituted For Beef by
Omaha Butchers.

Omaha Butchers.
Omaha, Neb., April 11.-Investiga-
tions by the Omaha police consequent
on complaints received from many
quarters have led to the discovery
that horse flesh is being supplied
in pace of beef, by suburban butch
ers5 who are taking advantage of
the prevailing high prices. A number
of carcases of horses have been
found In the village of Benson. In
every case the hind quarters of the
animals, which are usually considered
the most palatable portions Of horse
flesh, are missing
While the police profess to be
thoroughly satisfied that the animals
have been slaughtered for sale for
human food, there is apparently no
clue to the perpetrators.
