BLOW TO THE PACKERS
Judge Carpenter UphoIds Sher'
man Antitrust Law.
DECISION OF IMPORTANCE
May Have Bearing on All Similar
Litigation-"Beef Trust"
Trial Next Fall.

Chicago. May 12.-The demurrers OF the
Chicago packers in the Beef Trust case
were overruled to-day by Judge Carpen-
ter In the United States District Court. IL
is held that the Sherman antitrust law,
which was attacked by the packers. is con-
stitutional. and that the indictment charg-
ing J. Ogden Armour and other packers
with violating it's provisions is valid.
Judge Carpenters decision may have an
indirect hearing on all antitrust litiga ton
in the United States. in upholding the CON-
peteness and stability Of the Sherman act.
OF this feature the court said:
The statute has been the subject OF dis
Court of the United States many times has
sustained DEGREES when restrained viola
lions OF IT,
The packers had based their demurrers
in part on an assertion that the act did not
define crime or provide legal and con-
stitutional means Of correcting the abuses.
The decision directly denied this assump-
ton. The packers also asserted that the
act did not define the misdoing In terms
that would enable the defendant to know
in advance that such performances az II
condemned were illegal On this point
Judge Carpenter said:
I am Of the opinion that the Supreme
Court of the United States has determined
that Sections !. and 3 Of the sherman
act define with sufficient accuracy the
offences therein enumerated.
As to the stability of the Indictment the
court said:
| do not see how the grand jury could
have made the charge more definite. ana
believe it is sufficiently specific to satisfy
the substantive law.

Plan to Eliminate Competition.

The whole plan tthat or the packers DE-

in the indictments show clearly plan ol

and distribution Of fresh meat Throughout
