DRAGGED INTO IT
MADE CENTRAL FIGURE IN THE
BEEF CASE By THE TRUST
LAWYERS.
SAYS GARFIELD THREATENED
IT is CHARGED THAT HE USED
THREATS TO MAKE CUO.
ANY TESTIFY.

Chicago, Jan. 24.-President Roose-
welt has been made the central figure
around which revolves the entire case
involving the pleas of the indicted
packers for immunity from further
prosecution by the government on
charges of being in a conspiracy to
combine in restraint of trade and
commerce. Attorney William j.
Hynes. for the defendants, in his
opening statement yesterday before
the jury hearing the immunity pleas,
read an excerpt from letter written
by President Roosevelt to Attorney
General Moody. in the Atchison. To-
peka & Santa Fe case, which was a
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 that the department
of commerce and labor and the de-
partment of justice worked together
to indict the packers, supporting the
contention of the packers upon which
they rely for immunity. The defend
ant packers will endeavor to inject
the letter in the shape of evidence as
if the president was present and testi-
fed concerning it. The letter was
written by the president June IL,
1905, at the time the federal grand
jury was sitting in Chicago en- the
beef inquiry That part Of the letter
read by Attorney Hynes and which
will be introduced by the defendants
if possible as evidence from President
Roosevelt follows:
Quotes the President.
With my approval the department
of justice, with the assistance of the
department of commerce and labor
has for months been endeavOring TO
find out whether or not they can OBJ
tain legal evidence of such willful and
deliberate violations of the injunction
by any individual. If the grand jury
now sitting in Chicago finds an in
dictment against any individual CON
nected with the packing corporations,
It would be because in their judgment
such legal evidence of the violations
of the injunction had been laid before
them"
The letter is purported to be signed
by President Roosevelt and is taken
by the defendants as proof of their
contentious.
