LEGAL-CRIMINAL
Plea of the Packers RidicuIed.


District Attorney Morrison in open
ing the case of the government against
the beef packers at Chicago, said that
their claim for immunity was an after
thought and ''only part of their clap
trap defense presented by men of in
fuence in the effort to unfit the jury
for fair deliberation in this case" He
said these men were trust lawyers and
that the packers were not entitled to
immunity because their statements had
not been under oath. In closing for the
defense Attorney Hines had quoted
from a letter written by President
Roosevelt to Attorney General Moody in
the Santa E'e case, but what the de-
Tense regards as an admission that the
department of commerce and labor and
the department of justice had worked
together to indict the packers. The de-
Tense argued that the securing of evil
dence from the packers against them
selves constituted a promise of i'm

there are now at least 125 competitive refineries in the United States. "As to the claim that changes in rates have been made since the com missioners efficient work began, all the Standard oil Company has to say Is that any such changes have been made without it's suggestion or effort. The grief which the president ex- presses ia his message over the inabili- ty of the railroads to combine and pro- tect themselves from the shippers will pr obably arouse amusement.
 The presidsnt says respecting this investigation that the facts are not in dispute, only the differences are dis puted. The Standard oil Company fur- nished the facts and man with a muck rake dug out such as under his manipulation he felt would prove dam aging.

RAD1UM DIsCOvERER KILLED.


PARIS, April 19,-Professor Curie,
the discoverer of radium, was run over
and killed by wagon on the Place
Dauphine today
Professor Curie and his wife began
their search for the unknown element
radium shortly after the discovery of
the X-rays by Professor RoentgeiH in
1895 Three years later Nine. Curie
found that the salts of thorium emitted
rays similar to those of uranium, and
the husband and wife, using this .clew,
finally discovered that radium could be
extracted from pitch blende. The new
element is still largely mystery to
scientists.
Pierre Curie was born in Paris in
1859 In 1900 he was made professor
of science at the Sorbonne.
Professor Curie married Marie Sklo-
dowska daughter of a college professor
who was herself a great student. They
are said to have led an almost ideally
happy life Both M. and Nine. Curie
wrote a great number of scientific
works.
