COURT HEARS PLEAS -OF THE BEEF BARONS Special Dispatch to The Call CHICAGO, Jan. 18.—The trial of the special pleas of J. Ogden Armour and the other packers and attorneys now under indictment for conspiracy to restrain trade and commerce were opened late to- day before Judge Humphrey In the United States District Court. Among the de- fendants In court at the opening of the case were J. Ogden Armour, Charles W. Armour, T.'J. Connors, Edward Morris, Charles F. Swift, Edward Swift, Edward Cudahy atd A. H. Veeder. The issue in the present case is the contention of the packers that the Gov- ernment should not prosecute them under the indictments found, because they are entitled to immunity under a section of the law which grants freedom from pros- ecution to any person who Is compelled to produce incriminating evidence agafnst himself. It 18 claimed by the packers tthnt they were compelled by . Commis- sloner of Corporations Garfleld to give | such evidence and that, moreover, they lver- promised ‘immunity by him.

It is prongsed to discuss the problem from a scientific standpoint and to acquaint students with the qualifications of a successful worker in the “slums.” Dr. D. Charles Gardner. who Is an enthusiastic supporter of the project, is of the belief that if the young women have a thorough grounding i all the branches of the undertaking they will form a more helpful society in San Francisco, where it is proposed to start the first settlement, than if they were to learn by experience. At the last meeting Mrs. H. A. Millls, who has consented to lead the class, out- lined the work of the young women, Mrs. Millis has had a wide experience along : college settlement lines. She was a mem- { per of a soctety in the slums of Cincinnati {and has also studied the work of the largest settlements in New York and Y Chicago. INDICATIONS SUPPORT THEORY OF SUICIDE ALAMEDA, Jan. 18.—An examination of the body of the unidentified map recov- ered yesterday off the south !‘diflf the Alameda. Mole was made to-day|by Dr. L. W. Stidham and the fact was that the man had been affiicted with an incurable disease, which, the inspecting physician says, would have ended the unknown's life in a short time and which, it is believed, prompted him to commit suicide by jumping from the mole after he had divested himself of his coat. This theory is borne out by the fact that there are no marks of violence on the hedy and that advertising doctors’ cards were found in the pockets of the clothing. That the deceased was a seafaring man is belleved from the fact that the coat bears the trademark of R. L. Pritchard, Cardiff, tailor, that a knife found in a pocket of the trousers was made Ly R. Kelly, Liverpool, and that.a silver mateh- box found in a vest pocket bears a small engraved anchor. The heayy watch chain, apparently of plated gold, bears on the buttonhole bar t a these letters are thought to be a jeweler's private mark. There is also a number on the chain, 9-57%. || LEDA COUNTY Y ¥S JUDGE'S EXPENSES —The esterday pald out §150 on an Presiding Judge Lawlor and ) expenses ot Judge Thom- the trial of Georgs D CITY PA Ctty Treasurer ¥ order signed by covering the perscral as J.
