200 Witnesses for the government were
demanded by Attorney Miller, who Is
acting for the packers in the trial Of
the immunity pleas, when the case
was resumed The names were fur
nished to the department Of justice by
Commissi oner Garfield. District At
/ torney Morrison objected to furnishing
the list of names, saying that the
packers were endeavoring to discover
the details of secret government trans
actions; that the list of names Is not
in the hands Of the department OF
Justice, having been taken away by
Commits sioner Garfield, and that the
matter is not material in this trial.
The attorneys for the packers con
tended that they were entitled to the
list OF names, because 1t had been
used by the government officials in
the hearing before the grand jury.
After further argument Attorney
General Morrison said he would not
produce the names until the court en-.
tered an order for them. .2 Il
