BY REQUEST
of Packers Commissioner
Garfield Eliminated
Certain Findings

Chicago, March Especial Agent
Il. D. Durand resumed the witness
stand in the packers case during the
day. The witness said that during his
Investigations at the plant of Armour
& Co. balance sheets for oleo, beef
and hides were produced by the pack
ers and examined by the government
agents. He said that he and Special
Agent Robertson had remarked at the
time that there must be other profits
than these and they had requested
the packers to show the profits from
other branches of the beef depart
ment.
They said," the witness declared,
that it was impossible to distinguish
from the profits Of these other depart
ments. l then told them that their
profit and loss accounts showed 6
larger profit than could be shown from
the details they had given to u.s."
The witness then detailed the .con.
versation held between the packers
and Mr.. Garfield and himself after the
preparation of the report of Commits
sioner Garfield.
Mr.. Garfield was requested to elm
mate from the report a statement that
Edward Morris held stock in Swift &
Co. 1t was taken out and a request
was then made that all reference to
combination between the packers be
stricken out of the report This was
asked because, according to Edward
Morris, the packers did not desire
even an inference to the effect that
combination existed. .Ss
