HE ADMITS HE TOLD A FEW
PACKERS TRIAL WITNESS SAYS
SOME WERE TOLD TO HIM.
Economical With the Truth for the
Purpose of Deceiving Competitors
Is Testimony Given on Stand.

CHICAGO.-Charles E Barry,
manager of the National Packing
COmpany's beef department, testified
in the packers trial today that while
he was superintendent of the New
York district of the company from
1907 to 1910 he regularly obtained
the weekly average margins of the
Armour, Swift and Morris business
in that market and wired them to
the Chicago office.
On cross-examination the witness
said he also obtained figures on the
New York business of Schwarzchild
and Sulzberger Company.
He said it was customary for rep
resentatives of the big packers in
New York, Boston and other Eastern
cities to exchange information in
regard to each others business.
Barry said that at times the rep
resentatives gave out incorrect fig
ures to deceive competitors.

did you ever lie to them in re-
turn?"
Il did at times"
Barry said the only object the
managers had in getting the infor-
nation was to justify their own sales
and show what their competitors
were doing.
The witness said he attended a
number of the weekly meetings OF
the old beef pool between 1892 and
1902 as the representative of the G
H. Hammond Company.
Before going to New York in 1907
Barry was in charge OF the shippine

Bureau of Public Health.

The American Medical Associa-

for twenty-five years to establish
national bureau Of public
health, and might have succeeded
long ago had it not been for the
fact that it had never released one
iota in it's determination to doml-
neer such bureau if it is ever
created. The result has been the
outgrowth of class of profess
sional men who are spoken OF IN
Washington as ''political doe
tors" and these gentlemen are
laboring to force their views
at the present time upon political
parties and through party conven-
tions. The principal opposition
tion now comes from the Chris

ers Of medicine. 1t is likely that
