Trial Is Long One.
The trial was one Of the longest Grim
nal trials in the history of sEe federal
courts. 1t began December 6, 1911, and
the jury was sworn in December 10. The
first witness was called by the govern
ment December Is. The government
put 49 witnesses on the stand and in
PRODUCED 1888 documents in evidence.
The record of the case contains 5000. 900
words
It is estimated that the trial cost the
packers 100000 and the government
about 100000.
The first witness called by the gov
eminent was Albert H. Veeder the dean
- 81 4
legal advisor of the late Gustavus F.
Swift, founder Of Swift & Co. He gave.
a graphic description of the old packers
pool which met every Tuesday after
noon prior to 1902, and gave the details
Of the method by which the fresh meat
business OF the country was controlled.
He declared that no attempt was made
to fix prices and divide territory after
the old packers pool was dissolved in
1902. He also told of the attempt of
the Armour, Swift and Morris interests
to combine the packing industry into
billion dollar corporation and how the
plan was dropped because of the inabil-
ity OF its promoters TO finance 1t.
Nearly every witness called BY the
government in the trial was either an
employee or a former employee of one of
the corporations controlled by the de-
PENDANTS.
The defence cross-examined every
witness at length and in this way got
much Of its side of the case before the

in 1902 the packers held secret meet
ings at each others homes.

since It's organization in 1903 has been
used as the clearing house for the al

That the packers adopted a test cost
