Packers Lose Opening Skirmish in Sherman Law Case
Chicago packers on trial for criminal Sherman law violations lost the opening session as Judge Carpenter overruled defense motions to strike counts and to bar government references to the Behnarachild Sulzberger and New York Butchers Dry goods absorption. The ruling favored the government on key points, prompting a brief recess as defense teams debated whether to present an opening statement or wait for witnesses. Attorney George T. Buckingham opened for the defense contending the indictment covers only 1907 to 1910 and arguing market-driven cattle prices and competition, not packers control, shaped meat prices.
