PACKERS ARE
HIT HARD
Former Boston Employee is a

FIRMS EXCHANGED BUSINESS
Told Each Other of Shipments and Mar

UP to 1906, Is the
Testimony.
FIRMS EXCHANGED BUSINESS

Chicago, Jan. 20--Direet testimony
that the representatives of the alleged
packers combine exchanged daily and
weekly reports of shipments and mar
gins, together with the detailed opera
tons of the business transacted by each
branch house, was given to the jury yes
terday in the trial of the ten packers
charged with criminal violation of the
Sherman law. Everett B. Dill, former
manager for the National Packing COM
pany in Boston and assistant manager
for the same company in New York,
went on the stand and gave damaging
testimony against the packers. He de-
clared that the managers for Armour,
Swift, Morris and the National Packing
company in Boston, who were in charge
of the New England territory, met daily
and were on terms 90 closest business
intimacy. He said they exchanged by
telephone the daily shipments and mar.
gins of each company, and that weekly
summaries from each house were sent
to the Boston representatives. The wit
ness declared that his system was in
use up to the time he severed his con
nection with the National Packing com
pany in 1905 to become Boston manager
for an independent company.

SOUR, Classy, UPSET
STOMACH REGULATED
Out-of-order Stomachs Feel Fine Five
Minutes After Taking a Little
Diapepsin.

3
The question as to how long you are
going to continue sufferer from indi,
gestion, dyspepsia or out-oforder stom.
ach is merely n matter of how soon you
begin taking some Diapepsin.
If your stomach is lacking in digestive
power, why not help the stomach to do
its work, not with drastic drugs, but a
reinforcement of digestive agents, such
as are naturally at work in the stom-
ach?
People with weak stomachs should
take little Diapepsin occasionally, and
there win be no more Indigestion, no
feeling like lump of lead in the stom-
ach, no heartburn, sour risings, gas on
stomach or belching of undigested food,
headaches, dizziness or sick stomach,
and, besides, what you eat will not
ferment and poison your breath with
nauseous odors. All these symptoms,
resulting from a sour, out-of-order stom-
ach and dyspepsia, are generally relieved
in five minutes after taking little Dia-
pepsin.
Go to your druggist and get a 50-cent
case of Pape's Diapepsin now, and you
viii always go to the table with hearty
appetite, and what you eat will taste
good, because your stomach and intes-
tines will be clean and fresh, and you
will know there are not going to be any
more bad nights and miserable days for
you. They freshen you and make you
feel like life is worth living.

TAFT INFORMED THAT
HITCHCOCK is BACKING 7. R.
Request for the Postmaster Generals
Resignation Is Believed
Near

Washington, Jan 20.--Perosns close to
the president believe the near future
will witness a request from Mr. Taft for
the resignation of the postmaster gen
eral. Mr. Hitchcock's espousal of gov
eminent ownership of telegraph lines is
merely incidental. The real trouble is
that Postmaster-G General Hitchcock
stands before his chief charged with po-
litical treachery.
President Taft has been informed by
close personal and political friends, in
Guiding at least one cabinet officer, that
Hitchcock is aiding and abetting the
movement inaugurated and financed by
George W. Perkins for the nomination
OF Theodore Roosevelt for president.
According to the information brought
to the president, the postmaster general
has furnished 10 the agents of George
W. Perkins, who are working in the
southern states to secure uninstructed
delegates to the convention information
regarding the personnel of the delega-
lions to the convention which nominated
Taft in 1908, that he is giving them data
showing just how the Republican leaders
in those states regard the president and
how they can be won over to favor unin-
structed delegates.
The White House viii not discuss the
matter. The postmasterge general waves
aside the charges with laugh.
The president will not admit belief
that Col Roosevelt is party to the
scheme He is making an investigation

FISHING FLEET RACES FOR

Twenty-four Gloucester Schooners I'm
prisoned Off Newfoundland Make
Hazardous Dash for Clear
Water.

Gloucester, Mass, Jan. 2o,-All the
Gloucester fishing vessels comprising the
fleet in Newfoundland waters have start
ed for home, according to information
received here yesterday.
The successful dash by the eighteen
schooners imprisoned in the Bay Of Is
lands inspired the seven vessels which
had been shut up in Bonue Bay to
strike out into the open and begin the
hazardous race with the ice down the
west coast of Newfoundland.
As the foes had been blown but FIVE
miles offshore by the easterly breeze,
it was evident another shift in the wind
would swiftly drive them in again, so
there was considerable peril in the fleets
attempt to reach the clear water of
the Gulf of st. Lawrence.

However, feeling that they could at any

To appreciate the labor union, it is

and controlling purpose. That purpose
is the maintenance OF certain standard
OF living. This is the goal of all trade
union efforts. 1t is the formula of the
trade union idea 1t is the heart of the
whole matter. The unionist would gain

what it charges sixteen cents to carry
to Brooklyn, but I'll take your word for
it. Here are two more packages. Each
one weighs five pounds. How much for
one of them to Toxic, Japan? Twelve

across America to San Francisco and
then across the Pacific ocean for 90
