Much MONEY NEEDEDFOR
JAPANESE FAMINE RELIEF

Now York, March 2i.-The New
York state branch of the American
Red Cross has issued statement as to
the famine condition in Japan.
THE famine in Japan the state
ment says, which has been considered
for some time moderately serious. is
now known, as the result of reliable
private advices received by the New
York state Red Cross, to be one of the
most terrible starvation emergencies
in modern times. The failure of the
rice crop, which at one time was be-
lieved to be limited to certain places
only in the northern provinces. has
been found to be general in those por-
tions of Japan. and conservative esti-
mates place the number of starving
Japanese at from 500, 900 to 1000. 600
persons For this there is no relief
in sight until next year, when new
harvest will be available. The sum of
SIG. 1000, 900 will be required to save
the Japanese country people.

The record does show that. but the
fact remains that every approach was
made by the government.
Garfield made his demands, and it
does not, to my mind, destroy the
character of the compulsion under
which he acted that the defendants,
after having considered the law. and
after having decided that they had no
legal right to resist, still debated with
the commissioner in the hope OF Undue
ing him to take something less than he
originally demanded.
Garfield came to the defendants
and held up before them the powers
of his Office. They did not go to him
and volunteer anything. Now, slice
the defendants volunteered nothing,
but gave only what was demanded by
an officer who had the right to make
the demand, and gave in good faith
under sense of legal compulsion,
am of the opinion that they were en-
titled to immunity"

Attorney GENERAL
MADE LONG SPEECH

chicago, March 2l.-AttOrney Gen-
eral Moody spoke nearly all day in the
hearing of the immunity pleas ad-
vanced by the packers, concluding his
argument just in time to allow him to
take train for Washington.
In his speech he declared that the
pleas of the packers were not we'll
founded and that they could not be
entitled to immunity because they had
given their evidence of their own free
will and had not been placed on oath
nor subjected to compulsion Of any
kind.
He at times grew very sarcastic in
his references to the statements OF the
attorneys for the defendants who had
claimed that their clients could not be
punished because they had voluntarily
given evidence to Commissioner Gar.
field.
Concerning the compulsiion said by
the packers to have been exercised by
Commissioner Garfield, the attorney
general said:
"fhere is no longer any contention
here that there was any actual COM
pulsion in the acts of Mr.. Garfield
other than the powers vested in him.
"The claims are made that the in
formation furnished to government
officials entitled to have it was fur
nished under compulsion of the law
and that under the act of 1908, this
entities the defendants to immunity.
That and nothing else is the issue in
this case.
The attorney general declared that
the statements of Attorney John S.
Miller, who represents Armour q Com
pany, in the case we're utterly at vari-
ance with the terms of the immunit Y
act. The attorney general said:
Confession and Absolution.
"Mr. Miller said in his argument
that il a man had committed a crime
in the postal service and went volun.
tarily to the proper person and made
confession he would be entitled to i'm.
munity if the law gave immunity. Let
us see where this most extraordinary
claim leads to. 1t is a great discov.
cry Of my learned friend for which
yet uncounted generations of captains
of industry will thank him.
1T will be much easier instead OF
running away from a subpoena to run
towards the government agent. Any
body in this land who is now seeking
to avoid service of subpoena will
thank my learned friend for giving
him very much shorter road t.
travel.
"Washintgon, under the eircum.
stances, would become great resort,
not only in winter, but in summer.
All the people who are violating the
laws of the land may go there at inter
walls and obtain their immunity. All
they have to do is to 60 there in ODE
dience to the compulsion of the law.
HE can do it at intervals. The
law is license to commit crime.
Now, can fancy these gentlemen
gathering there. l can fancy Mr..
Swift and Mr.. Armour and their meet
ing in Washington with some other
great magnate who has been washed
in what may call 'Miller's bath.
Il can imagine them meeting and
saying, Good morning, good morning,
Mr.. Rock efeller, have you had your
immunity bath this morning. Look
at the absurdity of the thing"
The sarcasm of the attorney general
brought out much laughter and the
bailiffs had some trouble in restoring
quiet in the court room.

PACKERS INN UNE
JUDGE HUMPHREY RENDERS I'M.
PORTANT DECISION.
Individual Packers Relieved from
Criminal Prosecution Because
of Information Given to Car
field, But the Corporations
they Represent Held for Trial.

Chicago. March 22.-All of the
packers who we're indicted by the fed
eral grand jury last summer upon
charges of being in conspiracy in re.
straint of trade and commerce were
yesterday afternoon granted immunity
from criminal prosecution under the
indictment. While the individuals
are to go free, the indictments found
against the corporations of which some
of the indicted individuals are mem
bers and others are employees, are to
stand.
The decision to this effect was hand
ed down by Judge Otis Humphrey in
the United States district court. The
arguments in the case were concluded
shortly after 8 O. clock.
Judge Humphrey at once commenced
the delivery Of an oral opinion and
spoke for nearly an hour before giving
the slightest indication of what the
ultimate decision would be. He re.
viewed the case at length in all its
bearings, cited all the essential facts
which had been brought out and con
cluded as follows:
Aberdeen herald. [volume] (Aberdeen, Chehalis County, W.T.) 1886-1917, 1906-03-26
Reasons for Decision.

Judge Humphrey, in announcing his
decision, said:
1.-The defendants are indicted under
the Sherman act, charged with con-
spiracy in restraint of trade. They
have pleaded that as to them that the
act should be suspended, because they
were compelled to furnish evidence
concerning the matter in the indict-
ment, and under the law such furnish
ing of evidence gives them immunity.
1.-THE law under consideration, the
construction of which the court is
called upon to decide, is the commerce
and labor act. 1t IS clear that the
primary purpose of this act was to en-
able conrgess to provide through the
channel of officials charged with the
execution of the laws, remedial legis-
lation.
THE act is a substitute for one of
the most cherished rights of the Amer
lean citizen, which is the right to re-
main silent when questioned on any
subject the answer to which might in.
criminate him.
1T is conceded that the provision
of the constitution could not be taken
from the citizen without giving him
something equally valuable in return.
The privilege of the amendment per-
mits refusal to answer a question
relating to the offense. The privilege
must be granted to the witness at the
time. The immunity flows to the wit
ness without any claim on his part.
Aberdeen herald. [volume] (Aberdeen, Chehalis County, W.T.) 1886-1917, 1906-03-26

Under the law in this case the i'm.
munity pleas filed by the defendants
will be sustained as to the individuals
and denied as to the corporations, the
artificial persons, and the jury will
find in favor of the government as far
as the corporations are concerned and
against the government as far as the
individuals are concerned.
The court was crowded by the de-
PENDANTS and numerous spectators.
When the judge announced that the
indictments would not lie against
them the defendants who were present
crowded together and commenced to
shake hands in mutual conrgatulation.
The attorneys for the defendants
were also highly pleased. and when
the decision had been announced they
shook hands all round and then has
tened to the jury box to shake hands
with the Jurors, who had been exclud.
ed from the court room during all G:
the arguments made in the case, and
who returned a verdict in accordance
with the directions of the court.

MOOONs Sdt Will DOWcu Acdu lOI
short time after Judge Humphrey had
concluded, and then walked over to
the jury box and also shook hands with
the jurors.
Immediately after the dismissal of
the jury. District Attorney Morrison
raised the question of the date for the
trial of the corporations. He asked
that the case be set for trial and that
it commence within two weeks.
This met with storm of protest
from the attorneys for the packers,
who insisted that they would not be
able to prepare for the case before the
fall of the year, pleading the number
of witnesses which it would be neces-
sary to bring to Chicago, the strain Of
the present trial, and various other
reasons.
After some discussion Judge Hum
phrey directed that the lawyers agree
among themselves upon date, and
notify him of their decision next week.
1t is expected that the total number
of witnesses to be called in this trial
will be at least 900. The attorneys
for the packers declared. when asking
for a postponement of the trial, that
their witnesses would number 900,
and the government has already said
that it would have 100.
