It is now about four months since
the sIxty-second Congress convened
but still not labor bill has even been
reported out OF a committee in either
House
The House is controlled by demo-
Gratis. The Senate rs controlled by re-
publicans. Both parties are to blame
The House Committee on Labor is
headed by Representative Wilson, OF
Pennsylvania, Wilson is an ex-labor
leader and stands high in the councils
of the present administration OF the
American Federation OF Labor Yet
Wilson has not reported out a single
labor measure.
Why? Wilson is a democrat
Wilson gets his orders from Repre-.
sentative Underwood. leader OF the
democrats In the House. And Under.
wood is an employer OF labor and q
very rich man.
The other day Underwood boasted
on the floor of the House that he
had instructed all committee chair
men not to report any bills until
ordered Otherwise. And Wilson is q
democrat first. He obeys.
Four months have passed and YET
there is not the slightest intimaion
that Congress is to consider any in
junction legislation. and yet for the
lack of such legislation labor men are

From the standpoint of the A. r.

now pending before Congress are
those regulating injunctions. exempt

PACKERS OBJECT
70 TESTIMONY
JURY EXCUSED WHILE OPPOSING
COUNSEL PRESENT
ARGUMENTS.
BY-PR0bUCTS enter Case
Government Charges Packers Evadcd
Law by Organizing By-Product
Factories.

CHICAGO, H.. Dec. 2s.--Objeetions
by counsel for the defense to evidence
which the government seeks to In
troduce regarding the operations OF
the Kenwood company and the Aetna
Trading company halted the packers
trial today and caused Judge Carpen-
ter to excuse the jury pending tho
hearing of arguments.
The government contends that the
Kenwood company. which was organ
tied by the packers In 1900 and con-
tinued in business until 1905, was one
of the alleged pools used to make the
packers by-products. II Is alleged
that tho Kenwood company dealt in
oleo and the Aetna trading company
in the same period dealt In castings.
Profits We're Great.
The government expects to snow
that the Kenwood company profits
were $4,000, 900 In one year despite
the fact that 1t was only Incorporated
with a capital stock Of $4,000. Tho
profits Of the Aetna Trading company
also are alleged to have been proper
| tionately large.
BY making an inadequate allowance
for these by products, in figuring the
test cost of the animals slaughtered
the packers were enabled to keep the
profits OF the parent concerns within
reasonable limits. according to gov
ornment counsel.
The objection to this line of testi-
mony came when Albert III. Veeder
was questioned In regard 10 the busi-
ness transacted by these subsidiary
companies.
| Seek 10 Learn Object.
| 1--WE have a right to know what the
government intends to prove by going
into the business of these companies
and what relation 1t has to this COM
pany." said Attorney Levy Mayer
counsel for the defense.
I'VE cannot understand what rela'
,ion this has to the allegations that
there was d combination to control
tho price of fresh meat and the price
paid for cattle"
standing alone, I do not see th'
relevancy of this testimony but II
may lead to something connected with
the acts as charged in the indlct
ments," said Judge Carpenter.
II think the government should a
this time state what 1t expects t'
lprove."
Awarded Test Cost.
Special Counsel Pierce Butler sale
the government expected to show tina
the packers made inadequate allow
ancs for by-products in figuring th'
test cost OF animals slaughtered. which
had q direct bearing on the working
OF the alleged combination.
I'VE expect to develop in the tria
that these companies are an impor
tant part OF the pool or pools b.
which the packers. between 1900 AM
1905. fixed the price Of fresh mea
and the figures to be paid for cat
tie." said Attorney Butler.
"They were used to make by-prod
uots at a price higher than they coul'
be sold direct by the parent con
'ce-ns."

suicide Theory DISPOSED
DEAD MANS WIFE AND EUCIIEE
TOM HELD FOR CRIME--COR-
ONER'S REPORT TODAY.
DARK echo OF PAST crime
Since Another Murder Few Years Ago
Three of Those Suspected
Have Died.

SAPULPA, Dec. 2S.-Wassie GUM
eapig, almost a weekly habitue of the
city Jail, and Euchee Tom, charac-
ter u scarce less note, are under ar
rest charged with the murder of
WASHES husband. Porter Guineapg.
found with his lifeless body sitting
almost erect on the porch OF their
home west Of this city, a gaping
wound through the mans breast IN
the region of the heart, made by a
charge Of shot fired into him.
Word of the killing was brought
T. the city at an early hour this MORN
Ing by Philip Jack, another Indian
Tying near At first the death was
thought to have been suicide, but
subsequent developments disprove
that theory.
Dead Man Borrowed Gun.
--,.Jack stated that the man now dead
called at his home at about midnight
and borrowed his gun. This was the
one found at the side of the dead man
by the officers called. and one shell
was discharged. Both barrels were
loaded when the gun was loaned.
Wassie, the wife, when summoned
before jury empaneled by Coroner
w. Il. Root OF this city, stated that
Porter had come home last night
drunk. and at about O'Clock had run
her from her home and out to the
stock pens some distance from the
house. She stated that the next time
she saw him was when in the house,
and that later she heard the shot
fired The theory of the officers is
that, after the man left the house
where she states she saw him, he SAT
on the porch, and that 1t was there
that he was shot by someone. either
his wife or Euchee Tom, who was al
the Indians home, as, from the posi-
ton of the gun when found, 1t would
have been impossible for the man tt
have thrown it there after shooting
himself.

being jeopardized by the trusts. Sem

Taking up further the trust topic.
the senator went mot the organization
of the so-called combinations along
the lines of his talk in Cleveland last
night
Fourteen Men Controlled.

Iatollette declared he found ninety

said, was on seventy-two, and l fear
he had no money inv ested-he was

| In closing Senator Lalrollette turned
his attention again to his home state
and how its government is run. CIV
ing stress to its regulation of railroad
rates, "a thing that Wisconsin does

has been trying TO find feasible way
to do this for forty years and hasn't
