MANY OFFENDERS
In POLICE COURT
MAYOR BUTTS GREETED BY THE
LARGEST CROWD DURING
HIS INcUMsENCY,

One of the most conglomerated
masses that has been the misfortune
of Mayor Butts to face since his ad
vent as municipal judge Zone of the
unpleasant duties of the mayor was
handed him for disposition yesterday
morning, when large number Of
cases were up for trial.
There were big "drunks" and little
"drunks," black "drunks" and white
"dr1nks," men having every appear
ance of having passed through a saus-
age grinder, and others with so many
bandages about their skypiece 1t was
impossible to tell just exactly how
they looked. There were men still
unable. to talk plainly and men who
had flow of oratory that would have
put old Chauncey Depew to shame; in
fact there was a general mixture of
various kinds of offenders, who had
been arrested since the last session
of the court.
However, there were none of the
evil-doers up on very serious charges.
Drunk and disorderly, plain" drunk,
discharging fireworks within the fire
limits, fighting and using profane Ian
Suage about covered the charges for
which the prisoners were held. Most
Of the offenders were convicted, but
the mayor was lenient and only small
fines were imposed.

London, Dec. 26. - The proclama-
tion OF martial law at Teheran fol-
lowing the dismissal of w. Morgan
Shuster by the Persian cabinet and
the fragmentary reports received as
TO bloody massacre by Russian SOL
dlers at Resht, are causing serious
apprehension here.
According to latest advices the
main troubles occurred last Sunday
When victims at Resht are said to
have numbered 500, including some
women and children. Direct dis
patches from Teheran make no refer-
ence to these serious casualties and
report from the Russian consul at
that point states order is now restor-
ed, although he is preparing for rur-
ther outbreaks.
Fighting at Tabriz.
The strategic point of Tabriz $50
miles to the northwest of Teheran, is
another center of constant and serious
collisions between Russian and Per-
sian elements. The small force of Rus
SLAMS tat has been stationed there
Tor some time has recently been re-
inforced.
The Russian troops have come into
contact on several occasions with the
popalace and one dispatch received
mere says the Russian artillery swept
the streets, while another through
russian sources says that condition,
of anarchy exists, even the banks be-
ing without adequate military guards
to protect their funds. The latter is
evidently a suggestion on the part of
the Russians that a strong military
force is essential to safeguard vested
property interests in Persia and as
giving an explanation for the decisive
effect of force by cossacks at various
points

Pekin, Dec. 26.-Premier Yuan Shi
Kai has submitted to the more proml-
nent Manchus here the proposal ema-
mating from Shanghai for the meeting
of a special national assembly to de-
eide on the future form of govern
ment which shall be adopted for
China. This step by the premier
practically means that he asks the
court to decide its own fate, because
the members of such a national as
sembly would decide in favor Of a
republic
If the ManGhus would agree to adopt
the suggestion their decision to do so
will be promulgated as an edict, which,
in all probability, will be made public
in the course of the day.

Savannah, Dec. 26.-The near-beer
saloon ana grocery store of William
Sawyer, at Thunderbolt, resort a
few miles from Savannah, was enter
ed shortly before day this morning
by yeggmen, who tried to blow the
safe open. Failing in this, the visi-

one, and loaded it into a wheelbarrow,
carried it some distance down the
road, where they evidently had a ve-
hicle waiting to carry it further. Of
ficers are now on their trail. The safe
contained all of Sawyer's Christmas
receipts, amounting to about 5000.

800 WITNESSES
TO REPRESENTED
BY GOVERNMENT
CASE AGAINST THE MEAT PACK
ERS HAS BEEN RESUMED
IN CHICAGO.
1t May Take Three Months or More
for the Prosecution to Conclude Its
Case-U. S. Attorney Springs a
Surprise.

Chicago, Dec. 26.-When the tr,al
OF The ten Chicago meat packers, in
olcted for alleged criminal violation
oI the sherman ANTITRUST law. was
resumed after the Christmas holiday
To-Day before United States District
'uu9e George A, Carpenter, the gov
ernment began the presentation of its
case to the jury by calling its first
witness TO the stand.
Inc government has subpoenaed 300
witnesses and is carefully guarding
the list of names.
District Attorney Willierson will be-
gin by having witnesses tell tba story
OF the old packers pool which is said
70 nave operated prior to the organi-
zatlon of the National Packing com
pany in 1898.
The defense may decide to ADMIT
mat such a pool existed, and if this
course is followed the hearing may
be materially shortened.
The government will then trace the
history of the alleged packers COM
Dine step by step to the time covered
III the indictment in an effort to prove
that the Chicago packers fixed the
prices of meat and suppressed com
petition.
1t may take three months or more
Tor the prosecution to conclude it's
case.
When the trial was resumed Attor-
ney John S. Miller in behalf of the
packers, created a surprise by reviv-
ing the immunity plea successfully
used by the packers several years ago
When they were prosecuted by the
government.
counsel contended that the immun-
lty plea applied to all of the ten de-
PENDANTS who testified before the Gar
held investigating commission. Coun-
sci for the government contested the
motion on the ground that the court
mad already passed on the question IN
ruling against the plea in abatement.
Judge Carpenter reserved decision
on the motion and directed the gov
ernment to proceed with it's case.
Albert H. Veeder, attorney for
swift and company, was the first wit
ness.
Organized Swift G. Co.
Attorney Veeder said he planned the
organization of Swift & Co, the cor
poration, in 1885, had been its coun-
sci ever since. and that on numerous
occasions he served as director of
swift & Co, and its subsidiary com
panies.
The witness said he assisted in the
of the National Packing
company, March 18, 1903, and served
as a director FOR sixty days. Later
he acted as general counsel foe the
