PACKERS MUST STAND
TRIAL ON CRIMINAL CHARGE
Judge Carpenter Holds That injunc-
tlon Granted In 1908 Does Not
Affect Case.


CHICAGO, Jan. s.-Judge Carpen-
ter, sitting in the United States dis
trfct court today decided that the
government can proceed with the
criminal prosecution Of the packers
under the, Sherman anti-trust law.
He held that the present action was
not barred by the Injunction granted
in 1903 by Judge Grosscup In the
United States circuit court.
In handing down his decision Judge
Carpenter held that the accused
could not escape prosecution on .
criminal charge because the govern
ment had secured previous injunc-
tioI on the civil section Of the law.
The packers maintained that the
previous Injunction proceedings
brought by the government prohibit
ed II from taking criminal action
against them.
Following the decision, Attorney
John 8. Miller. representing the pack
ers, objected to what he und8Stood
to be a statement by Judge Carpen-
ter that the counsel for the packers
had admitted the proceedings placed
the liberty Of the indicted packers In
jeopardy The court ordered any
statement that might be construed
to mean this stricken from the rec
ords.
Attorneys for the defense then
moved that the indictments be dis
missed. The motion was promptly
overruled by the court.
The indicted packers are given ten
days In which to plead to the charges
against them.

BILLY" Burns Wouldn't Join
Plot Before His Death

Chief OF Detectives Mcdonnell says
that If 1t had not been for Billy
Burns, the gentleman burglar" the
plot to blow up Jackson prison would
have been consumated some time
ago.
Burns, the stumbling block in the
path of the conspirators, died a few
days after the death of the late Tom
Navin, who had become interested in
his case Burns died shortly before
he was to have been pardoned.
Capt. Mcdonnell, who was also in
terested in Burns, says that Burns
was taken into the plot, but would
have nothing to do with 1t. In fact,
the gentleman burglar" told the
others that they would never do the
job.

II il significant that the prisoners
implicated I'm the conspiracy were
transferred to Marquette. This prob
ably was done on Burns tip. II Is
also significant that plans to accom-
plish the destruction Of the prison
and a wholesale delivery OF convicts
were again resumed right after
Burns death.
Burns served more than half his
life behind prison bars. He was sent
out of Detroit three times for big
burglaries In his later years, he ia
dicated that he wanted to reform and
pleaded that he be given a chance to
spend the evening of his life demon
strating that there was some good in
