SEEKING WAY TO CRAWL OUT
Seventeen Indicted Packers Place
Trust in Technical Objections
. Chicago, Sept. 18. By pleas in
abatement, attorneys representing
the seventeen packers and other per
sons indicted by the federal grand
jury on a charge of 'conspiring
to monopolize the meat business at
tacked the position of the government
today. The attack was made against
the impanelling of the jury; alleged
improper service of a summons on
John Murray, one of the jurors; un
lawful secrecy at the time the Jury
was drawn from the box; unlawful
presence of a stenographer in the
jury room during the hearing and the
subsequent writing of the shorthand
notes; that the indictment was re
turned in the eastern division of Illi
nois, although the jury which found
the indictment . was sitting in the
northern division of the northern dis
trict. The plea, which is very lengthy,
ws filed late this afternoon with Dis
trict Attorney O. B. Morrison, after
an all day's conference between At
torney John S. Miller, general coun
sel for the packers and a number of
associate counsel in the case. There
were no court proceedings, and the
plea has not yet been properly filed
with the clerk of the district court,
but this will be done tomorrow even
ing. The main ground upon which the
defendants stand in their plea, is the
presence of John Murray on the jury.
It is their claim that the jury was
drawn from the box previous to
March 3, M which time a law redis
tricting the northern district of Illi
nois went into effect. Previous to
this Kankakee county was in the
northern division of the northern dis
trict of Illinois. By the terms of the
new law this county was placed" in
the eastern division of the northern
district, and therefore not within the
jurisdiction of the court. To sub
stantiate the allegation that the jury
was illegal and incompetent because
of Murray's presence, it is declared
in the plea that Murray was served
on March 8, a fe-v Cays after the
enactment of the k moving Kanka
kee county from this division, by a
deputy marshal of another division
of the district.
