Asquith Sees Government Passing
Through Crisis Safely Now.
LONDON, Feb. 24.-Parliament was
formally opened at o'clock today
by the King. The formalities lasted
an hour. The Kings speech, beyond
the reference to foreign affairs, was
confined to finance and the relations
between the two houses. The supre-
macy of the House of Commons in
financial matters was asserted firmly,
but the governments plan for limit
ing the Lords veto will not be dis
closed until precedence over all
other business. Mr.. Asquith has re.
NAMED firm on this point, and the
Liberals are convinced that the min
listers will be able, in the debate on
the address, to make out a case salts
factory to both labor and to Irish
members.
Premier Asquith has filled vacan-
cies in the ministry, which is an in
dication that he expects the govern
ment to pass safely through the crisis.

CHICAGO, Feb. 21.-The Federal

task, and report within two weeks

Investigation of the packers of Mis-
souri, under the state trust law, is

ings.
This combined attack, broad as it
is, may be augmented further. Many
states, 1t is declared, have enacted
antitrust laws under which they may
proceed individually against the big
firms of Packingtown.
Indictments have been voted against
directors of the National Packing
Company by New Jersey grand
jury.
Action in New Jersey is based upon
an ancient law which forbids the stor-

an ancient law which forbids the stor

age or destruction of produce with
the intent of influencing the market.
Originally it was an old English stat
ute, and few states have adopted It.
Nevertheless, the New Jersey act,
though long unused, is believed by
the authorities of the commonwealth
to furnish grounds for prosecution.
The suit in Missouri is in the civil
courts and the punishment which
that state seeks to inflict upon the
big packing houses Is eviction. The
Chicago grand jury, on the other
hand, is conducting its inquiry under
the Sherman antitrust law, and what
ever action it may take will be the
result of mature consideration.
