PACKERS FACE
CRIMINAL
ACTION
CIVIL SUIT AGAINST
CONCERNS WITHDRAWN
Chicago Federal District Attor-
ney Explains Action on the
Ground that it is to Make
Way for Prosecution.

IBy Morning journal Special Leased Wire
| Chicago, Dec. 27.-United States
District Attorney Edwin w. Sims ap.
peared today before Judge Kohlsaat
| in the federal court and asked that
the dissolution suit of the government
against the National Packing com
pany, which had been accused of be-
ing a trust, be dismissed. The order
was entered by the court.
Assistant United States District At
torney James H. Wilkerson late today
issued statement regarding his ac-
ton in sweeping aside civil suits to
make way for criminal prosecution OF
the men composing the National
Packing company. Mr. Wilkerson
says there Is but one reason for the
dismissal of the civil case and that is
the desire of the government for inn
mediate and vigorous prosecution of
the packers.
The statement issued by Mr.. Will
kerson follows:
'The petition against the packers
was filed on the twenty-first of March
jury investigation as d result of which
indictments were returned charging
some of the defendants in the bill
with criminal violations of the anti
trust laws.
'sSince the return of those indict-
ments the defendants in the equity
case have asked several extensions of
time within which to answer and those
extensions have always been grant
ed.
ut was thought to be fully under
the attorneys for the packers that
there were to be no further proceed
ings In the equity until the trial OF
the criminal cases.
1.-THE pTpose of the dismissal of
the eqdrtScases is 10 make clear the
position OF the government that the
trial of the criminal cases is to be
vigorously pushed and is to be inter-
fered with in no way whatever by
the pendency of the equity cases in
the circuit court.

the governments contentious are es-
tablished in the criminal cases.
''The attorney general therefore d.
rected the dismissal of the equity case
without prejudice. Further proceed
ings to enjoin future violations can of
course be instituted If these proceed
ings should be found necessary TO
maintain fully the position or the
government in this litigation

situation at this time.
At 7.15 the mob burst open the
door of the express room where the
deputy sheriffs and their prisoners
had locked themselves in. All the
windows were broken and the mob
demanded the negro's life. But the

vault of the express company for
safekeeping with hardly breath of

at Charleston for state troops was
followed Immediately by an order for
the mobilization of the militia at
Clarksburg, Grafton and Parkersburg
and their dispatch there by special

it was necessary to confine the negro
to the airless vault. Although there
was danger of suffocation it was con-
sidered a greater peril to release him
while the mob's frezy was at Its
height.
After the negros trial this after
noon he was held to the grand jury
without bail, to answer to the charge
of assault and attempt to murder.
