Chicago & Alton Officials File
Immunity Plea in
Rebate Case

Kansas City, April 10.-Various mo-
tons, pleas and orders growing out Of
the indictment last December of five
local packinghouses, three railroads
and a number of individuals, charged
with giving or Ssy1s 10 secure
rebates in violation of the Elkils anti
rebate law, were argued here during
the day in the United States district
court.
The packing companies and the Chi
cago, Milwaukee and ST. Paul rail-
road, soon after the indictments were
returned, filed general denials. The
Burlington and several officials of that
railway who were indicted filed mo-
tons to quash. The Chicago and Al
ton and the officers connected with the
traffic department of that company
under Indictment, filed immunity
pleas. -
The plea of the Alton and its Off

cision of Judge Humphrey in Chicago
in the. beef cases wherein it was held
that members of the corporations who
had furnished information on which
the indictments were returned were
immune, but that the corporations

that it was compelled to produce it's

local agents of the road were sum-
moned.
