PACKERS WIN A POINT
IN NEW JERSEY CASE
Produced-Another Suit
Is Pending.

Trenton, N. THE big packing
concerns of Chicago scored a most
important point against the prosecu-
ton in their cases now before the
courts of this state.
The state court of errors and ap-
peals reversed the decision of SUI
preme Court Justice SwayZe directing
the National Packing company and
the other big packing concerns to
produce their books before the Hud-
son county grand jury.
The evidence expected from these
books, 1t is believed, was one of the
main reliances of Prosecutor Garvin
in making out case against the beef
men on the charge of conspiracy to
control prices.
The case has been pending in the
state courts since early in the year,
when indictments were returned
against the National company and
some of the leaders in the Chicago
meat industry as individuals, charg-
ing manipulation of the corporation
in the domination of food markets
Another case against the big pack
ing companies, that of the dissolution
of the charter of the National Pack
ing company, is now in the state SUI
preme court.

PITTSBURG JUDGE is RAPED
Dismissal of Glass Combines Officers
on Payment of $500 Penalty
Is Held to Be Over
Lenjenr

Washington. In a statement is
sued by the department of justice
1t is declared that prison SEN
fences for officials of corporations
who are guilty of violating the anti.
trust law is preferred to punishment
by fines Federal Judge James S.
Young of Pittsburg is criticized in
the statement for his mistaken
Ieniency."
The case in point is that of the So
called window glass trust, or the I'm
perial Window Glass company, which
recently dissolved itself after the
heads of the corporation and the cor
poration itself had been fined by
Judge Young.
The department of justice was
stirred to the issuance of its pro-
nouncement by the publication OF a
dispatch from Pittsburg announcing
that the officers of the company had
served notice on it's employees OF 80
per cent. cut in wages.
In making the announcement, the
blame for the wage reduction was laid
on the department of justice because
1t successfully prosecuted the COM
pany.
The departments statement says in
part:
1.-THE Imperial Window Glass COM
Rany manufactured no glass, but was
purely 4 selling agency. :.
1T was not until the company had
brought into combination with it
manufacturers of about 81 per cent.
Of the entire hand-blown window glass
manufactured in the United States
that it was determined to commence
business.
1T began business in January, 1910.
By October 1, 1910, prices had been
advanced 70 per cent. over what they
were in April, 1909.
st leased Is factories for the sole
purpose of keeping them closed and
removing their product from the mar
ket"
Indictments were found against the
Is directors and officers of the COM
pany.
Before the trial overtures were
made to the attorney general suggest
ing that the defendants would enter
plea of nolle contendere if he would
agree to the infection of fines instead
of Jail sentences. The attorney gen
eral refused to do this.
The following day the defendants
appeared in court in Pittsburg and IN
terposed pleas of nolle contendere, and
In spite of the opposition of the prose-
cution the court let the individual de-
PENDANTS off with fine of $500 each
and fined the corporation only $4,000.
The departments statement declares
that a reduction of 80 per cent. in
wages is not warranted by the disso-
luton of the trust and adds that eff
the rumored action should prove to be
substantiated by fact it would indicate
very mistaken leniency on the part
Of the court, which it is hoped would
not be followed on any other similar
occasion"

FIND WIRES UNDER MAINE.
Divers Investigating Wreck Discover
High Tension Electric Conductors

Havana. Cuba.-Divers have founo
a quantity of insulated copper wire,
similar to that employed for high ten
sion electrical currents, under the nun
of the sunken battleship Maine IN TINS
harbor.
The wire now lies on board the yes
sci Manuelita, presumably to be exam

course.
Washington.-Ther was intense
interest in Washington in the re-
port from Havana that wire had been
found about the hull of the Maine. Ma
val officers, while approaching the
matter with caution, held the discovery
of the wire to be strong confederation
of the verdict of the board of inquiry
that the Maine was blown up from the
outside.
Brig. General Arthur Murray, chief
of the coast artillery, said If the wire
when compared with that from the
Maine proved to be unlike it that fact
would be strong evidence of sinister
purpose.
