fight the government TO the limit. His
statement follows;

northern district of Illinois Its organi-
zation was directed by the best
counsel obtainable, who then believed.
and now believe, its organization and
the operation Of its subsidiary COM
panies in no way transgressed the
provisions Of the Sherman act: and in
this respect il is practically similar to
nearly all the largo corporations of the
country.
"Tbe total percentage of the bust
ness done by the corporation CON
trolled by the National Packing com.
pany forms but a small part of the
whole volume of the packing industry
HThjs proportion could not consti

word. Instead Of operating to restrain
the trade of its subsidiary companies. as
ellegcd in the Indictment it is fact
the companies have all shown n heavy
increase since the formation of the Ma.
tional. The company Is operated by
its officers purely as conn petitive and
independent factor in the trade,
Does Not Fear the Light.
"The Indictment today returned and
the bill III equity today filed by the
district attorney are directed at the or.
ganization and operation of this com
pany. These operations have, at all
times, been frank and open, and we are
confident that the courts Will sustain
