TRIAL OF PACKERS
IS QUICKLY HALTED
ATTORNEYS WILL TAKE TO ST.

CONSTITUTIALITY OF
SHERMAN LAW.

Chicago.-Thc indicted Chicago
meat packers by precipita.ing a fed.

tionality OF the Sherman antitrust
law when they Surrendered them
selves into custody and, asked for a
writ of llabeas corpus merely took
steps necessary to carry the fight
before the United States supreme
court without the cost or delay of a
trial.
Government attorneys, taken una
the results OF their long ~investiga-
tion into the meat packing industry
by the sudden move of the packers.
Instead OF a premise to be support
cd by evidence brought carefully to-
Sctlcr the fight for Il time at least
must be conducted purely as an az
sumcnt OF law. The fight thus be-
M not a question of first issue
as to the guilt or innocence of the
packers but a plain attack on the
validity OF the Sherman act accord
ing to attorneys for the packers. They
explain their position briefly i'm this
wise:
The supreme court in the tobacco
and Oil cases converted the Sherman
law into an illegal enactment since
the court by placing each individual
or corporation on Il standard of its
own, built upon its peculiar in5ivid-
ual act, took away from all individ-
uals the possibility of knowing how
their acts were to be viewed by a
jury lin the light of reason" that
the constituted crime was contrary
to the eighth amendment of the fed
oral constitution.
In short, in the petition. the at
torneys charge the supreme courts
Interpretation with multiplying the
Sherman law in spite Of the courts
action in ordering the dissolution
of the American Tobacco company
and the Standard Oil company.
Only an adverse decision to the
packers contention by the United
States supreme court will give the
government attorneys an opportunity
to use the material they have gath
cred for the prosecution.
In the meantime the trial schedul-
ed for Monday of next week undoubt-
eddy will be postponed pending the
decision of the hisEer court on the
new question.

In the central police station, Wednes-

have been taken to locate or notify
his relatives OF friends.

Coroner Burgess was located. Friday

He said the matter was up to the

Word comes from Pittsburg that

number OF gullible mothers OF society

Of money, for the promise that he

TITLE OF COUNT, SOLD
FOR $4,000, DISPUTED
Rich italian Thought He Had a Bar
gain, but Nobleman's Relatives
Don't Like Transaction.

ROME, June 23.-Here is true
little story Of deal in titles. Signor
Catoni, a rich financier, wishing to
surround his millions with the
glamour of nobility, some time ago
persuaded a needy nobleman, Count
Mamiani della Revere, to adopt him.
SO that he might thus acquire dtle,
as the Italian law allows. The trans
action, of course, was on a money
basis, but the ambitious financier
struck good bargain, paying only
about $4,000.
Whispers of this affair reached the
relatives of the count, who are very
high in society, Duke Lante della Ro-
we're being King Victor's master OF
ceremonies. Not fancying the idea of
sharing their family name with a
''nouveau richie" they are now about
to bring the matter into court. assert
ing that Count Mamiani, although an
authentic count, has no right to add
della Rovere to this name, and even
less right to adopt Signor CatoDtz un-
deT that name.
The case will soon be heard before
the Rome court of appeals. Sisnor
Catoni has announced his intention OF
suing Count Mamiana for fraud IL 4the
decision goes against him. The Della
Revere family owes its fortunes to
