MAi DEMAND SEPARATE TRIALS.
Hearing of Indicted Packers Set for
Sept. 18.
Chicago, Sept. 0. Twenty-one sep
arate trials may be demanded before
federal Judges by tho Chicago packers
Indicted on charges of conspiracy In
restraint of trade, within tho next two
weeks. After tho matter of pieading
had been continued until Sept. 18 by
Judge Humphrey, many of tho attor
neys interested In the case hold a con
sultation and a.t least one agreement
was reached whereby separate trial
will bo demanded from tho govern
ment. This move was anticipated by
tho government and every effort will
bo made by tho federal attorneys to
offset tho requests of the defendants.
Assistant Attorney General Oliver
Pngln, In speaking of tho contem
plated demands for soparato trlnls, de
clared that It Is not probablo that
soparato hearings will bo grnnted by
tho federal courts under the one in
dictment charging conspiracy. "All
these defendants aro Included in the
one indictment charging conspiracy
In restraint of trndo," said Attorney
Pagln. "Conspiracy, of course, will
be tho GBsenco of tho case, and Inas
much as It takes all of theso defend
ants together to form tho alleged con
spiracy, there is no reason why they
should not bo tried together."
