There is much scandal brewing
concerning the big packing house,.
particularly In Chicago. and the prob
ability Is that much of II Is untrue.
The presidents message will go ia
congress Monday. That will be official
and then we will know how much
said about the meat packers is true
and how much is due to Imagination
But since the matter has been consic-
cred seriously by the national govern
ment there is only one thing for the
packers TO do. and that is to not only
submit to Inspection. but insist on n
thorough investigation They have
not appeared in Washington to OPP
pose Investigation with the strong lob
by. with which they are accredited in
the ten cent magazines. on this occas-
ion, but evil construction even is
placed on this attitude, and it is
claimed the packers are only blufiing
while they work secretly on the cattle
men to defeat legislation. All these
eccuse.lon are bound to reflect on the
trade unless the rnmors are put to rest
by a thorough exposition of condi-
lions In Packingtown.

NEED NOT PAY FOR GOODS.
st. Louis Judge Decides in Favor Of
Purchaser Against Alleged
Trust.

st. Louis, June 26.-In the circuit
court Monday Judge Ryan decided in
favor of a purchaser who contended
that he does not have to pay for goods
which he voluntarily bought from a
concern which, he alleges, is a. mem
Der of a so-called trust. The Cahill
Swift Manufacturing company has
brought suit for $24O.83 against Josenh
E. Walsh, a plumber, on the allegation
that Walsh has bought goods to the
value of the Judgment asked, and has
refused to pay for them. Walsh &C.
know!edged that this was true, and
stated he has installed the goods in a
fiat. His counsel termed the company
q trust" and argued that the defend
ant did not have to pay for goods
bought from q trust any more than he
would have to pay O. gambling debt.
Walsh's defense was based solely upon
his antitrust argument, and the
courts decision was in his favor.
