CAUSES BIG STIR IN COURT
PACKER SAYS HE WAS IRE.
ouIRED" TO SHOW PROFIT
AND LOSS BOOKS.

Chicago, Feb. 1. - Edward Morris,
vice president of the Fairbank Can
ming company and a member of the
firm of Nelson Morris and Co., testi-
fed yesterday in the packers case
that he had been required by Com
missioner Garfield to produce for the
inspection Of the commissioner the
secret profit and loss books Of his
company after the commissioner had
prepared his report on the beef indus
try. He further declared that Mr..
Garfield had taken these books and
hadainspected them. He told first of
Receiving the Assurance
from the commissioner that no knowl-
edge that would be furnished by the
packers would be used against them,
of how he gave the information to the
commissioner and his representatives,
and then declared that Commissioner
Garfield returned to Chicago with the
greater part of his report in proofs,
which he submitted to Mr.. Morris.
The witness said that he read the
proofs and told Mr.. Garfield that the
report was correct. The commission
er then, the witness asserted, de-
manded that the profit and loss books
of the company be brought to the
downtown Office of Morris . Co. for
his inspection. They were brought,
and the commissioner looked them
over.
Causes Stir in Court.
The statement that the commission
er had called for the secret books af-
ter completing mis- report caused a
stir in court, but the witness insisted
that he was required by Commits
sioner Garfield, to submit the books
to him.
The other witnesses of the day were
L. G. Krauthoff, who was on the stand
Mondays Samuel McRoberts, treas
urer of Armour & Co., and Charles G.
Dawes, former controller of the treas
ury, and now president of the Central
Trust company of this city. Both Mr..
Dawes and Mr.. McRoberts insisted
with much emphasis that they had
heard Commissioner Garfield declare
that any information he might procure
from the packers would not be used
against them.

the posse. The officers returned the
fire and Gentry was killed, One OF
the posse was named N. G. Tidwell
and a complaint was sworn out
against Tidwell charging him with
the murder OF Gentry, although It
was recognized by the eye-witnesses
