Chicago, March 25.-"Did these de-
PENDANTS conspire and combine in re-
straint of trader"
Federal Judge Carpenter thus put
the fate of the ten Chicago packers
who have been on trial for fifteen
weeks up to the jury late this after
noon, and the body is celebrating
tonight on its verdict.
Judge Carpenters first charge was
an Interpretation of the Sherman
antitrust act, the law under which
the packers have been prosecuted
and the law under which they have
been investigated in secret for nearly
decade in preparation for the pro
secution.
The doctrine OF reasonable doubt
was then expounced by the court,
who added that it did not extend, so
far as the jury was concerned, as to
the validity of the Sherman act.
The Jury was instructed TO intre-
pref the law as 1t found it, /. e., to
pay no attention to criticism of the
law: 10 determine If there had been
conspiracy and combine in re-
restraint OF trade.
The question as to whether the pro
fits had been large or small was no
defence.
DO not sacrifice your selfrespect.
Do not be in haste. Do not hush your
conscience to bring your delibera-
tons to an early close. Remember
the momentous significance OF this
trial and remember justice" said the
Judge. Gentlemen, this case is with
you now"
The ten packers facing possible
prison sentence and fines are:
]. Ogden Armour, president Ar
mour e Co
Arthur Meeker, manager Armour

supporters lSlI inc AoAis
indianapolis, March 25,-With the
arrival of full delegations today to
attend the Republican State conyen-
ton which will convene in this city
tomorrow and select delegates at
large to the Chicago convention there
is no longer any question that Mr..
Roosevelt's managers are contemplat
ing a bolt and the selection by a
rump convention of contesting dele
cation.
About the Roosevelt headquarters
nothing is heard but denunciation OF
the methods of Taft's supporters In
the selection of delegates. The threat
to hold a separate convention "if the
committee on credentials does not
recognize the legality Of our selec-
tions" is made on every hand.
The purpose was further testified
to by the fact than an attorney In
the employ OF the Roosevelt manag.
ers was busy all day making out af-
fidavits for delegates who said that
they had been chosen and defrauded
out of their rights.
1t is said that the Roosevelt men
have also got a number Of proxies
and that the Taft managers admit
that some twenty or thirty delegates
have thus got away from them.
1t is charged IN the hotel corri-
doris tonight that L. NJ. Lee and G. Ii.
Campbell. the Roosevelt State man.
ayers, have received orders from the
Eastern managers of Roosevelt's
campaign to send contesting delega
ton to Chicago at all hazards and
have the record OF the convention
made up and sworn to by men whose
names will carry weight.
Under these circumstances It is
believed that a bolt and a rump con
vention are inevitable II the contest
ed seats are not all given to the
Roosevelt delegates. If this were to
be done they would change minorl-
ty into a majority and the Taft men
might as well abandon all thought of
naming the four delegates ct large.
The contest took on a Beverage
and an anti-Beveridge aspect today
when 1t became known that the for
mer Senator was really directing the
operations Of the Roosevelt managers
and had himself consented to stand
as one of the Roosevelt delegates at
large.
Edwin M. Lee, Fred Lands OF 10
ganseport and o. d. Brown OF Terre
Haute, with Beverldge, constitute the
Roosevelt slate, while Charles w
Fairbanks. Harry New, James Wat
son and j. ID. oliver OF South Bend
make up the Taft slate.
While It has been known all the
time that Beverage was back OF Lee
the former Senator did not get actu
ally into the work OF corralling dele
gates for Roosevelt until today
The exact returns from all the con
ventions and primaries give Taft so;
delegates and Roosevelt COG. ThorC
are contested seats. ranging from one
to twenty in a number OF counties
and the contestants are all here ant
making claims OF fraud, which viii
be submitted TO the committee OF
credentials which was chosen to
night

indianapolis, March 26.-The sup
porters of Theodore Roosevelt bolted
the Republican state convention here
today after the delegates, seated by
the state committee. had ridden
rough shod over the claims of the
delegations.
The machinery was all in the
hands of the administration forces
and they saw to it that no delegation
favoring the ex-president was seated
if it was possible to prevent it.
These methods gave the Taft for
ces a majority of over 200 instead OF
a bare margin and in the midst OF
the turmoil the four Taft delegates
were declared elected. and Roosevelt
supporters left the hall.
