FARMERS AND PACKERS
 THE BOOSTERS OF PRICES
So Retail Meat Dealers Tell the Sen
 ate Investigating Committee.

Washington, March S-Retdil meat dealers today placed upon the farmers and packers the responsibility for the higher price of meat, in their testimony before the senate committee investigat- ing the increased cost of living.
 Five retail men from New York. Philadelphia. Baltimore and Washing ton were heard. Walter Brown, a Washington dealer who kills his own meat. was the only one who did not admit that the price of meat lad gone up at least 10 per cent in the last five years. Each witness vigorously denied that the retailers were responsible for the prevailing prices. and noEe would admit that any agreement as to prices existed among them. While none charged the packers with forming a combination, all the witnesses declared that there seemed to be no cOnfpeH- ton.
 John Rohlman of New York told the committee that the competition among the retailers in New York was so keen that they had been unable to keep pace with the steadily easing prices. He said: The merchants in New York are being crushed to the wall by the wholesalers, who represent the packers"

 Blood Poisoning.

Kansas City. March s.-Fear that complications will develop in the in juries of Jere Lillis. president of the Western Exchange Bank, whom Gu dahy. the packer. assaulted on Sun day in the Cudahy home. caused the physicians to forbid his removal to his home today.
 Lillis is at St. Mary's hospital and may be there for several days. The development that pr. Ayres. who is attending the injured banker. most fears is blood poisoning The knife that Cudahy used. it is said. was an old one and had a rusty blade.
 Tonight there seems small danger of blood poisoning, but every precau- .tion will be taken to prevent such a development. Lillis is. still unable to talk. His lips are badly battered Nurses at the hospital say he has not spoken since his arrival As the knife did not touch any vital part of Lillis' body he will probably be out in a few days

STANDARDS FIGHT
 FOR ITS EXISTENCE COMPETITIVE.
Since They Were Already Owned by
 the New Jersey Company.

Washington. March S.-Bdsing the case largely on the claim that corpora tions merged with the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey in 1899 were noH- competing at that time and on all legation that the interpretation given the sherman antitrust law by the lower court would strike down busi- ness. the Standard oil company filed in the supreme court of the United States today brief against .he dissO- iution of the organization. Dissolu- lution was ordered by the circuit court of the United States for the eastern district of Missouri on d petition filed by the government in 1906. Whether the decree of dissolution will stand shall come Cp on Monday for oral argument.
 Frank B. Kellogg is now putting the finishing touches on the briefs of the government. while Attorney General Wickersham is understood to be pre- pairing the oral argument in the case. The argument of counsel for the Standard will support the contention that corporations whose stocks were exchanged for the stock of the Stand ard of New Jersey were non-com- petitors. based on the assertion that they were all owned at that time in the same proportion and by the same people who owned the Standard
 It will be claimed that the method of organization in 1899 was dictated by economic reasons and that the business created by the individual de- fendants. John D. Rockefeller. William Rockefeller.

Philadelphia. March S.--Thc au- nouncemcnt that the plants represent ing 75 per cent of the hosiery man- ufactories of Philadelphia will close until Monday was the most important development of the strike situation today.

Many of them are reported to have gone out on the first day of the general strike.
 While accessions to the strikers ranks were reported today from man ufacturing plants. including few from the locomotive works. there were many reports of strikers return ing to the old plants. The man ufacturers declared that many of the union men are disappointed at the failure of the general strike to force the Transit company tc arbtrate. The union leaders denied that there were any defections

CORPORATION TAX ON TRIAL

 Law Attacked BRIEFS ARE POURING N
Arguments in the Various Gases Brought, Will Be Heard Next Week in Stu
 preme Court-Mr. Fora
 ker's Opinion of the Law

Washington. March S.-Attacks on the constitutionality of the corpora ton tax lOomed into prominence today when brief after brief in opposition to the law was filed in the supreme court. set for next week.
 Prominent among the briefs was one by former Senator Foraker. solicitor for a stockholder of the American Null tigraph company. who seeks to have the company enjoined from paying the tax on the ground that it is unconsti- tutional. MT. Foraker says: The in- definiteness of the language employed in the corporation tax provision of the tariff law makes it difficult to ascer- tain just what the tax is
 He says it is clear that the framers intended to provide corporation in come tax without laying it on the in come. and" he adds, it is equally clear that they did not succeed"
 An emphatic attack is made upon the publicity feature. The provision is not only a violation of the guaranty against unreasonable search and seiz- ure." said the senator but it is also violation of all justice. the spirit of liberty and freedom of action which the constitution is supposed to secure tn citizens. and, if upheld, it will be a long step in the direction of nullifying the heretofore well recognized powers of state. Such a standardization of force as will make the government at Wash ington an arbitrary and irresistible power for evil whenever the White House may chance to be occupied. as 1t sometimes may be. by an executive disposed to misuse and abuse the tre- mendous weapons thus placed at his disurosal"
