New York, Dec. 20.-Representative

He pointed to the failures of dl-

National Packing Co. Organized
to Continue Pool.
Several Lawyers for Defense Will Par.
ticipate in Opening Address
to the Jury.

Chicago, Dec. 20.-In a council OF
the attorneys for the defense early
today il was decided that several rep
resentatives of the packers would make
the opening address to the jury i'm
mediately following the close of Dis
trict Attorney Wilkersons opening
statement. The indications are that
the government viii not call it's first
witness before next week. Wilkerson
resumed his address this morning and
described methods said to have been
pursued by the alleged trust.
"The organization of the National
Packing Co was sham," declared
Wilkerson, "and its stockholders and
directors are just as guilty under the
law as if the fixing CT the business
and control of the meat industry had
been accomplished by an individual"
He argued the intent of the pack
ers to fix prices was shown by the
history OF the packing industry and
said there had been packers pool for
thirty years.
The object OF the National Packing
Co, he declared, was to continue this
pool.
Wilkerson described the methods OF
the alleged combination I'm suppress
ing competition. He said rate wars
were started in certain districts tc
drive independent packers from Tho
field. In other instances troublesome
competitors were absorbed by the com
bination. He described how Schwarz
child and Sulzberger, the New HorI
pressed Beef Co, and other independ
ont concerns were taken into the al
legged combination.
