GREAT LEGAL FIGHT
ALMOST ENDED
LONGEST TRIAL IN HISTORY OF
COURT.
The Trial Of Ten Chicago Packers
Accused of Conspiracy in Re-
straint of Trade, Has lasted Since
December 6th.-Verdict Soon.
Associated Press.

Associated Press.
Chicago. ILL.,, March 21-The trial
Of the zen Chicago pakers on a
charge of conspiracy in maintaining
combination in restraint OF trade
in violation of the criminal pro
visions Of the Sherman antitrust
law which began December 6. is the
closing chapter of a long legal bat
tie waged by The government against
the big packers.
The heads of the packing compan-
les in the proceedings are named as
individual defendants and a verdict
of guilty under the law would make
them liable to either a fine of 5000
each, or Imprisonment for one year
or both penalties.
The ten defendants are:
j. Ogden Armour, president Arm
our and company.
Arthur Meeker, director and gen
eral manager Armour and company.
Thomas j. Connors, director and
general superintendent Armour and
company.
Louis F. Swift, president Swift
and company.
Edward F. Swift, vice president
Swift and company.
Charles Fl. Swift, director Swift
and company.
Francis A. Fowler, manager beef
department Swift and company
Edward Morris, president Morris
and company.
Louis H. Heyman, manager beef
department. Morris and company.
Edward Tilden, president Nation
al Packing company.
The government contends:
That prior to 1902 prices were
fixed. shipments regulated and ter
ritory divided by the old beef. pool
which met every Tuesday afternoon.
That after the old beef pool dis
solved in 1892 the packers held sec
ret meetings at each others homes,
That the National Packing, com
pany since its organization, in ,19e4
has been used. as the rrI'Glearilg
house" for the alleged combination,
That the packers adopted a test
cost and margin system which was
used in the purchase of cattle and
the sale of fresh meat.
That the allowances made for by
products in figuring the test cost
were inadequate and the cost
used by the packers was fictitious
and higher than the actual cost.
That the representatives of the
different companies in New York,
Boston and other eastern cities eX-
changed information in regard to
prices and shipments and tele-
graphed the figures to their super
iors in Chicago.
That the violation of the Sherman
law by the packers has been contin-
uous and practically uninterrupted
since 1898.
1t is estimated that the trial cost
the packers 100000 and the gov
ernment about 100000.
The case will go to the jury today
