81 PACKERS ARE INDICTED.
Six Leading Companies Also in Net
Of Grand Jury.

Twenty-one officials of the so.called
meat trust and six of the leading pack
ing companies Of the country were in
dicted by the Hudson County grand
jury in Jersey City. The indictments
are the outcome of the exhaustive in
vestigation which the. grand jury has
conducted for the last month into an
alleged conspiracy to maintain the
prices Of food at an exorbitant figure.
The men indicted are the leaders in
the business coterie that controls the
countrys output Of meat. Some of
them are many times millionaires and
men whose names are known through
out the world. For the most part they
are residents of Chicago, the center of
the meat packing industry Of the
United States. The indicted men are:
J. Ogden Armour F. A. Fowler
j. Watson Ar Charles H. Swift
mour L. II. Heyman
Arthur Meeker ]. E. Bathgate, Jr
Edward Morris Geo. j. Edwards
Louis F. Swift F. B. Cooper

L. A. Carton H. B. Darlington
Thomas Wilson L. G. Patterson
EThos. j. Connors A. A. Fuller
The companies indicted are:

Company ing Company
Armour Co. g. H. Hammond

ously devising, continuing and intend.
ing for their own excessive. immoral
and unlawful profit and gain. to in.
lure, defraud, prejudice, damage and
Cypress the public and people of said
city and said county of Hudson" Ev.
licences of conspiracy are mentioned
in the indictment to the effect that the
defendants agreed upon their unjust
and extortionate prices and purposely
restricted the supply so that only a
limited amount could reach the estab.
lishments in Jersey City. There were
witnesses before the inquisitors. it
was learned, who testified that there
was a systematic method by means
of which each company was to send
east only limited number Of cars.

Whatever change there is is chiefly in the

of the situation that wheress a few weeks ago
business sentiment put special emphasis on the

the hopeful aspects. Yet so far as actual devel.
OpmeDts are concerned there is very little change
and the volume of actual transactions continues
below protective capacity.

some anxiety. Cotton goods in first hands are

NEW. YORK. Nov. 4.-The oper-

congested again. today in two or
three favorite speculative stocks,
giving the market the appearance
OF professionalism and of direc-

sources.
The volume of the dealings in
nearly third of the aggregate
transactions and the sales of
Reading and Union Pacific COM
bined were almost as large as
those in steel. The latter stock
opened at a fractional advance

planes by successive stages.
With rumors of a short time
note issue by the New York Cen
tral there came a violent relapse
in prices and an unsettled closing

to political sentiment to a large
extent. The after election revival
is almost a tradition, as is the

such movement.
Relief from unrest with the

for in business as much as in the
STOCK Specula llOn. Inc railroads
especially are said to be waiting
the opportunity of the relief from
political eXigencies to place their
deferred orders for materials. Tt
is this in particular that is dwelt
on to justify the aggressive adj
