PACKERS PROFITS
ARE SMALL
Attorney Attempts to Show
That Percentage of Gain
Is Not Exorbitant
SULzBERGER STANDING PAT
A Witness Told Counsel Sheean
That Company Made Money
on Hides.

CBy Special Leased Wire to New Mexican)
Chicago -A., Feb 29.-Attorney
John S. Miller, continued the cross eX-
animation of Ferdinand Sulzberger,
president of the Sulzberger & Sons
Company when the packers trial here
was resumed today. The witness said
the selling price of meat was determ-
med by the law of supply and demand,
that the test cost and margin system
used by the packers had no direct ef-
feet on the selling price and tnat the
selling price of the same grade of beef
often differed in the same day at diff
pany in the same city.
This, he said, could not be avoided
because of the peculiar nature OF the
dressed beef business.
Attorney Miller attempted TO show
BY the witness that the percentage OF
profit earned by the packers on the

was not exorbitant, bat the court sus-

| Sulzberger said the volume OF his
company's business was between $9Q.-
/ 100000 and $100,000,000 year. On
redirect examination by Government
! Counsel Sheean, the witness said his
company sold it's hides for from eight
| to sixteen cents a pound in 1907-0S,
when the packers made no allowance
for hides in figuring their test cost OF
beef.

your employees to exchange margins
