Defence Claims No Case Made

Chicago, Dec. 20.-Formal notice
that the defence will present a motion
in the near future to have Judge Car

verdict finding the 10 Chicago meat
packers charged with criminal viola
ton of the Sherman antitrust law.
not guilty, because United States
District Attorney James II. Wilkerson
failed to make out case in his open
ing statement to the jury, was given
today, by attorney Levy Mayer at the
opening of the afternoon session of the
trial.
At the same time Attorney Mayer
moved that counts two and three of
the indictment be dismissed because
they do not mention the National
Packing Co. which the government
contends was the instrument to fix the
prices of meat and have the jury in
strueted TO disregard certain other
allegations made by District Attorney
Wilkerson as not coming within the
thrae-year period covered in the in
dictment.
Tho action of the defence was sur
prise to the government and caused
Judge Carpenter to adjourn court I'M
til 10 o'clock, tomorrow morning, when
he will rule on the motions.
Counsel for the defendants have
agreed To present three motions" said
Attorney Mayer. THE first is to have
the case taken from the jury for the
reason that the governments open
ing statement has utterly failed to
make out case under the five counts
of the Indictment. We will defer the
presentation of this motion until some
later date. because it goes to the very
vitals of the case and is by far the
more important. We shall support
this motion with the recent decision
of the United States supreme court iii
the cases of the Standard Oil and the
American Tobacco Cos.

UP TO CONGRESS.

Washington, Dec. 20.-Congress will
actively begin consideration of tariff
legislation in the committees of the
two houses Immediately after the hol-
iday recess though Democratic leaders
of the House, the tariff originating
body, say that no measure will be
ready to report for some weeks
Senator Penrose said the Senate fl
nance committee would begin its vcrl<
ahead of the House committee, but
Representative Underwood said the
bill would not be whipped into final
shape for report until February The
committee, he said, must decide what
rates should be fixed after thoroughly
comparing its own data with the data
submitted by the Tariff Board in thu
report which President Taft submit
ted, today, to beth houses of Congress.
Senator Penrose announced that he
hoped the Republican senators would
be able to formulate a bill to comply
with the Tariff Boards views, Rep.
Underwood said the Presidents mes
sage really pointed out the necessity
of great reduction in wool rates and
that he had no doubt the House would
carry the suggestions made.
"The President in his message fav-

TARIFF BOARDS REPORT.

Washington. December 20.-The
Tariff Boards report on Schedule X,
sent to Congress today by President
TAFT. suggests general revision of
the duties ON wool and Woolens, and
many individual reductions in the
rates. The board makes no recon-
mendations but points out what
changes are desirable In nearly all
classes of the schedule. the boards
experts report tho majority of the
rates of duty prohibitory and con-
denim the systems of levying them.
The report points the way to two
great changes in the present system
of leVYing duties upon raw wool and
finished cloth. 1t would assess duty
on scrubbed wool-nnt wool and
grease combined; and suggests a
graduated scale of ad Valoreml rate
on cloth.
The report is divided into sections:
Viz:-raW wool. yarn and cloth. lNeY
are taken III in the order in which
they come in production and manufac-
ture.
On raw wool, the board finds the
present system of levying duty bad,
and the duties higher than the diff
ference in cost of PRODUCTION in the
United States as conpayed with the
cost abroad. The method of levying'
duty is condemned because it charges
for grease AS we'll as for wool and
operates to keep out of this country
the heavy shrinking woolens.

Advertising Talks
To The Readers Of The Republican
By JOHN IRVING RoMER, Editor of "Priutets' Ink, :"

Sometimes where the same obstacles
or problems face those engaged in the
same class Of business. the members of
that business may combine to adver-
tlse, where it would be impracticable
for any one or two to do so.
At this season OF the year, for IN
stance, there is a great mass OF sum
mer resort advertising in the newspa-
pers. Mountains, woods and seashore
are made to extend tantalizing invi-
tatlOn to the city man to come out into
the open. This publicity helps to
swell the mass of people rushing coun-
tryWard and tO-the seashOre.
But IN the meantime how about the
cities and and the enterprises in those
cities that suffer because Of this exc
dus! Especially does the patronage
Of city hotels fall off heavily.
Time was when the city hotel man
ayers would have resigned themselves
to this condition of lOw-ebb business
and shifted as best they could on a
weak dribble Of patronage. But way
has been found to counteract this.
What did a group Of twenty or
thirty hotels in New York City do re-
Gently? They combined to advertise
New York as a summer resort! Sounds
odd, doesn't it? But they made out "A

GOT LOST IN
MOUNTAINS
Art Wilson Spends Night in the
Hills While Blizzard RACES.
Rescued By Friends.

While hunting deer in the Snowy
mountains week ago last Sunday
with party of friends, Art Wilson
we'll known in Roundup, got separ-
ated from the rest Of the party dur
ing severe blizzard and was COM
PEELED to spend the night in the
hills. When the hunters returned
to their camp in the evening they
found Art missing. and altho
search was instituted after reason
able time had passed during which
they had expected his arrival,
no trace of him could be found.
On account Of darkness and the
blizzard the search was called off
until the next morning when it was
again resumed. After making
tholo search place was found
where he had built fire and tracks
where he had run back and forth to
keep from freezing. Shots were
fired which Art, altho very close
to his rescuers, was unable to an
swer on account of his weak condi-
ton. Finally, however, as the res
cuing party was passing below the
ledge where he was lying he sue
ceedrd in making enough noise to
attract the attention of several of
the party after which he was soon
found. His condition after the
trying experience was such that it
was found necessary to carry him to
camp, where he was given every
possible attention. He came out
Of the ordeal in fine shape and was
able to move around the next day
and in a very short time had en-
tirely recovered. Art. however, will
always look back at the event with
considerable misgivings as to the
result in case his friends should not
have preservered in the search until
he was found.
