ROOSEVELT DRAWN IN.
Packers VIII Use His Letter as Basis
of Immunity Plea.

Chicago. Jan. 23.-President Roosevelt
has been made the central figure around
which reVClVes the entire case inVolv-
ing the pleas of the indicted packers
for immunity from further prosecution
by the government on charge of being
in a conspiracy to combine in restraint
of trade and commerce. Attorney W.
J. Hines, for the defendants, in his
opening statement for the jury hearing
the immunity pleas. read an excernt
from a letter written by President
Roosevelt to Attorney General Moody,
in the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe
rebate case, which was part of the
communications between the two men
called for by congress some time ago
This letter is taken by the packers as
an admission by the president thai -
department of commerce and labor and
the department of justice worked to-
gether to indict the packers, support
ing the contention of the packers upon
which they rest for immunity.
The defendant packers will endeavor
to interject the letter into the case as
evidence, just as if the president were
here and testified concerning it.
The letter was written by the presi-
dent June u, 1905, at the time the fed
eraI grand jury was sitting in Chicago
on the beef inquiry. That part e the
letter read by Attorney Hines and which
will be introduced by the defendants if

James ]. Sums Up the Present
Fight Situation.
States Where He Believes the
Championship Lies.
THINKS WE'LL OF RYAN.
Better Boxer and Fighter Conn
bined Than Hart.
Declares O'Brien Must Settle It
With the Two.
THINKS WE'LL OF RYAN.

New York, Jan. 23.-James J. Cor
bett has the following to say concern
ing the championship:
The championship question is vide
ly discussed by ring fans all over the
country. Jehries handed down his III
tie to Marvin Hart after the battle in
Nevada, in which the Louisville man
knocked out Jack Root. The people
looked on and smiled. Hart had made
a good showing, but to declare him the
rightful holder of the worlds cham
pionship honors sounded rather coarse.
However, at that time he had as
much right TO the title as any Of the
fighters. Since then O'Brien has
knocked out Fitzsimmons, who, it was
conceded, was so far beyond his best
days that if O'Brien did win he would
not have as good claim at Hart.
Public opinion has changed some
since then and now many think that
Philadelphia Jack O'Brien has bet
ter claim to the honor than Hart.
Even if Fitz was old it took a COON man
to beat him, is the general verdict.
There is talk coming from the coast
that Hart and O'Brien will settle the
matter. 1t certainly sounds good, and
let US hope that no hitch will occur
that will prevent the battle.
a contest between these two fore
most active fighters today would at
tract worldwide attention.
1T was reported that Tommy Ryan
would be O'Brien's next opponent, but
there seems to be little truth in it.
Ryan is on the road with Hart and
needs the advertising that probably ac-
counts for the talk in favor of a bat
tie between Tommy and Jack.
Let me say right here that Ryan
would be a much tougher customer for
O'Brien to tackle than Hart. Ryan is
in a class by himself as a boxer and a
fighter combined. and would make the
Philadelphia travel a whole lot faster
than Hart, although the latter is re
ceiving a great deal of benefit from
his daily contact with Ryan.
ct was Ryan who made Jeffries. and
when the big fellow started he was q
much more hopeless proposition than
Hart, who seems to possess a lot OF
real fighting ability.
Hart is a slugger in every sense OF
the world, and O'Brien is a careful
| fighter as we'll as a boxer. He showed
remarka BILE Improvement in his go with
F'itzsimmOns. and were he booked tC
/ tackle Hart you can bet your money
that he would be at his very best
| O'Brien has great deal more respect
for Hart than Hart has for O'Brien
and that may contain a lot Of truth.
In the meantime several pugilisti6
battles will be INDUCED IN Between sec

poorly that Sartori made no attempt to
send it against time or even try the
