ONE TRUST CASE
MAY REACH JURY
Hurley and Others Is Under Ad
Visement.

The indications are that one of the
so-called trust cases will reach the
jury. After the second day had been
spent in taking the evidence in the
case of the government against p. T.
Hurley and others, the defense came
forward with the usual motion TO in
struct the jury to acquit on the ground
that the proof was at variance with the
allegations of the indictment and that
the acts proved under other allegations
did not constitute a violation of the
Sherman antitrust law. After an ar
gument of the motion for half an hour
the court announced that a decision
would be rendered this morning The
jury was excused until the usual hour
of converting.
The testimony taken yesterday re-
lated OF the organization of the Phoe-
nix Wholesale Meat and Produce COM
pany and the effect of this consolida-
ton of interest upon the price of live
cattle and the price Of beef. Regard
ing the disposition Of the competing

were in a critical condition members
of the firms of Tribolet and Hurley
further embarrassed the company by
getting possession of a note for $685.
held by Mrs. Martha McFall against
the COOPERATIVE company. Frank
WhittOn, secretary of the CO-Operatice
company. said that he had been ap-
preached on the subject OF the note by
Mrs. TribOlet and he was asked If the
company was going to let Mrs. McFall
lose the money. Later J. c. Hurley
opened negotiations with b. +. McFall
with reference to the note and a day
or two later it was delivered to p. T.
Hurley & Co. and the attachment Of
the COOPERATIVE company quickly
followed.
Then came the organization Of the
Phoenix Wholesale Meat and Produce
company and the absorption of the
concern of Alois Weller.
Concerning the prices of cattle and
beef thereafter. L. r. Gass and TheO-
dOre Haffner were put on the stand.

said that there was usually an in

say whether there had been an advance
in the price of cattle corresponding to
the advance in the price of meats. If
