Seven Indicted Packers Give Bond

Chicago, Sept. 13.-Seven of the ten
officials of Chicago packing companies
indicted yesterday by a Federal grand
| jury for violation of the Sherman
Antitrust law appeared in the FEEDER
al court to-day and gave bail for their
appearance.
Each defendant was obliged to fur
nish three bonds for $4,000 each.
The three men who failed to furnish
their bail are Louis f. Swift, Presi-
dent of Swift and Company, who is
in Europe; Thomas j. Connors, Su-
perintendent OF Armour and Company
who is now returning from Europe
and Francis A. Fowler, Department
Manager of Swift & Company, who is
| i'll.
Judge Lands in the morning ses-
sion, ordered bench warrant issued
for the defendants, but after attor-
neys for the absentees explained
why they had failed to appear in
court the order was recalled and the
warrants not issued.
The Packing company officials APP
peared in court accompanied by their
attorneys. All gave personal bonds
signed by men who scheduled real es-
tate in Cook county. Surety company
bonds were refused by Judge Lands
who ruled against them a year ago.
The next step in the case will be a
motion by Government attorneys for
the packers to enter a plea. When
this will be done has not yet been
decided.
w. S. Kenyon, Assistant to Attor-
ney General Wickersham, who direct
ed the investigation, left to-day for
his home in Fort Dodge, Iowa for
a short rest.
Other government attorneys also
are preparing to take vacations after
the continued grand jury sessions of
the last two months.

Hartford College Notes.

This term is well nigh two weeks
old, yet the teachers are all in
high spirits, being thus influenced by
the splendid way in which the inter
ested patrons manifested their high
regard for their educational institu-

The Newspaper as Salesman.

The majority OF retail stole custom
rs,before starting out on fan shoD-
ping forays, study the newspaper sd-
Vertising. This habit is a great time
saver.
The shopper escapes fruitless visits
to many stores, and needless bother
ing of clerks,by learning in advance
where she is likely to find what she
wants. She gives very little atten-
ton to the places that fail to inform
her as TO their offering.
Many women, too, having become
personally acquainted with the store
people, dislike to enter their places
of business unless they feel fairly sure
of buying. They avoid this embarass-
ment by learning in advance through
the newspaper where they can proc
ably supply their needs.
Thus it is that many sales are prac-
tically made before the buyer leaves
her home. 1t has been proved over
and over again, that the trade viii
pass stores with a main street loca-
ton that fail to ADVERTISED hunt up
poorly located shops on back streets
that are well advertised. A merchant
might as well close his shutters ia
