PRICES FIXED BY
THE DEMAND
Alleged Member Of Big Com
bine Declares That Margin
System Had Nothing to Do
Regulating the Charges.
HIS EMPLOYEES NEVER
EXCHANGED FIGURES


Chicago, Feb. 2s.--Attorney John
y. Miller continued the cross exami-
nation or Ferdinand suizberger, pres
ident Of the Sulzbevger and Sons
company when the packers trial was
resumed today.
The witness said the selling price OF
meat was determined by the law of
supply and demand: that the test
cost ana margin system used Dy the
packers had no direct effect upon
the selling price and that the selling
price OF the same grade Of beef often
differed on the same basis az differ
ent branch houses of the same COM
pany In the same city. This he said
could not be avoided becuase OF the
peculiar nature OF the dressed beef
business.
Attorney Miller attempted TO show
By the witness that the percentage Of
profit earned by the packers on the
actual money invested IN the business
was not exorbitant but the court sus-
tanned an objection by the govern
ment. sulzberger said tho volume OF
mis- companys business was between
1000. 600 TO 500, 900, ,0OO a year.
on re-direct examination by gov
ernment Counsel Sheehan, the Wit
nesess said his company sold its hides
for from eight TO sixteen cents a
pound in f9O7-Os when the packers
made no allowance for hides IN figur-
ing their test cost Of beef.
Have you ever authorized any OF
your employees to exchange margins
with representatives of Armour,

company since you were a member Of
the old beef pool in t902?"
