MIR. MOODY IDENTIFIES LETTER
Says Disputed Clause in Presidents Note,
However. Is Not Construed Correctly.

Chicago. Feb. 6.-Unted States Attorney Gen
eral Moody took an active part to-day in the
trial of the packers case. At the opening or
court he was called on by John s Miller who
represents Armour & Co. to produce the origi-
nal copy of a letter written to him by President
Roosevelt or to admit the authenticity of copy
which Mr.. Miller produced in court.
The Attorney General admitted the accuracy
of the document copy, but declared that the
clause in the latter which the attorneys of the
packers construed as meaning that the Depart
ment Of Justice and the Department OF Com
rnerce and Labor were working on the ease IN
unison was not correct. His assertion caused
nuch excitement among the attorneys for the
packers and they objected TO the statement of
the Attorney General before the jury as being
improper The letter was not offered in evil
dence but was marked for identification. The
afternoon session was taken up by the reading
of the Garfield report on the packing industry
