ASSURED OF PROTECTION
Krauthoff Gives First Evidence in
Support of Claim to Immunity
Through Giving Informa
tion to Government.
CHICAGO. Jan. 23. The trial of the
immunity of the packers indicted, for al
leged conspiracy in restraint of trade
was commenced today before Judge Hum
phrey in the Federal Court Iujs
G. Krauthoff. formerly general counsel
for Armour & Co., was the only witness
examined during the day. He described
in detail his interview with Commission
er Garfield, which prepared the way for
the Commissioner's investigation of the
packing Industry, and during which, the
packers allege, ho promised immunity
to the packers, provided they would al
low him to have access to their books.
In the afternoon Mr. Krauthoff was
cross-examined by District Attorney
Morrison. The examination was slow,
as the District Attorney continually ob
jected to the answers of the witness, de
claring that they were argumentative
rather than responsive. The court ruled,
however, that the witness had a right to
explain his answers. "When court ad
journed tonight Mr. Morrison had not
completed his cross-examination, and Mr.
Krauthoff will take the witness stand
aain in the morning.
His Talk With Garfield.
21r. Krauthoff narrated his interview
with Mr. Garlleld at the Chicago Club.
April 13, 1905, when, the packers al
lege, Mr. Garfield said certain thlnps
the Import of which was that if he
received the information for which he
asked the -packers should never be
prosecuted criminally.
Judge Hpmphrcy ruled that, if it
were true that the packers had di
vulged evidence against themselves
under pressure from the Government,
it would be competent to show thb na
ture of the legal advice under which
the defendants were acting'.
Mr. Morrison then asked the witness:
"Did you advise your clients as to the
oowers of the Commissioner to compel tes
timony?" "I did. fully."
"Did you advise them to comply with
his requirements in case he should call for
testimony?" '
"That was the principal subject on
which I advised them."
The witness then described his meeting
with Mr. Garfield as follows:
"Charles G. Dawes telephoned to me
and said that Mr. Garfield was In the
rity. and asked if I desired to meet him.
I said that I would, and In company with
Dr. Samuel McRoberts I called' at Mr.
Dawes bank and we went to the Chicago
Club. I was Introduced by Mr. Dawes
to Mr. Garfield. After some remarks
about other matters, Mr. Garfield opened
the matter and It was discussed for near
ly twoijhours.
Wanted Access to ,Bo6ks.
"Mr. Garfield stated In -a formal way,
apparently careful of his language, sub
stantially this:. That the Martin resolu
tion imposed upon him a; duty of investi
gating the packing industry; that in order
to do tills he must have access to the
books of the packers. His purpose InJ
coming to Chlcagp was to gain this infor
mation. He said he had held a conference
with the President and others In respect
to the Investigation, and that it was of
very great Importance. He said that he
was particularly anxious that the Inves
tigation should be fair, exhaustive and
thorough, so. that the usefulness of his
department would bo shown.
"I knew the powers of his office and pro
duced a pamphlet, a report of the Secre
tary of Commerce and Labor, and re
marked that, of course, I knew of his
power to get information.
T said, in view, of his determination to
acquire this information, I felt I hesitate
to continue "
The witness turned to District Attorney
Morrison and asked,:
"Mr. Morrison, do you wish to object?"
"Say what you told him," said Judge
Humphrey.
"My first remark was that I had had
occasion to look into the law. He then
said that lie wished to make a success
and not resort .to detective methods, and
wished to report to the President, so that
he could report to Congress.
rromiscd Ic-nl Protection.
"He again said that he spoke for the
President and that, of course, we would
have the protection necessary under the
law creating his department I told him
that my clients were in a very delicate
position and that the newspapers were
full of matter pertaining to them. I told
him that if the law was valid there was
. no doubt he could, compel the informa
tion. I told him that If the results of
this submission to his requirements were
to be further newspaper notoriety and
litigation I would, of course, contest the
law.
"He said that the letter of the law pro
tected my clients. I -called his attention
to the question of the yaladlty of the
law. He answered thai his department
must necessarily be separate from the
other departments, and particularly the
Department of Justice, arid that if It
were known that his department was af
filiated with the Department of Justice, of
course people would not give him any
information. He said that If I conceded
the Jaw was valid, the matter was divided
into thre classes that to which the Gov
ernment was entitled: that which was
doubtful, and that to which the Govern
ment was not entitled. He then detailed
how it Tvould'tbe dbnte; his special agents
to go to one jiouse and begin the inves
tigation. What Would President Do?
"X then asked him,!' said Mr. Kraut
hoff, "whether we were to be protect
ed in case of dishonest special agents.
He assured mo of this, and said that
-we were protected-by - law; -the source
of his information being- secret I
askodvKim about Vsome. of this informa
tion' yetting 'to the -newspapers and
oven to the Department of Justice. He
told me to "httve no apprehension Joti
that subject I then asked what use
the President of- the United States
wished to make of the -inf ormation. He
answered with emphasis that of course
the President of a prreat Nation would
not allow anything- to happen to. which
anyone could take exceptions. He fur
ther said that where figures And data
came from unquestionable sources, the
oath was not .necessary, but if anything-
came up in regard to the oath
he would let us know..
"On his assurance that all Informa
tion would be kept inviolate Jn the
Breau of Corporations, I answered
some questions regarding- the price of
cattle anil similar matters. We. .talked
something further, but I think that
was the substance of it"
3r. Krauthoff declared that acting
on the statements of 'Commissioner
Garfield, he had advised Swift & Co
Nelson Morris & Co. and ArraoHr &
Co. to submit their books- to the Javes-tl.ra.tlon.
Severe criticism is beinc showered upon the Pacific Coast Steamship Company and Captain Cousins of the steamer. Queen for the manner in which the attempt was made-to, rescue thesur
. vivors of the wrecked stoamer Valencia. Captain Cousins, In turn, accuses the master ofvlhe tug Czar of turning about and running for shelter with the only craft that. In his opinion, could
have reached-the wreck, in whose rigging men. women and children were screaming for help. C. Allison, one of the survivors, says that those who reached shore in the first boat in the vicinity of the
cliffs to which the wreck was within a few foot, did not display the proper spirit when they tied from the scene instead of making an endeavor to catch a line, of which there were plenty on board. A
rope could have been made fast to the cliff,' he says, and many could have been saved. His story is a most pathetic one. Allison was on the raft picked up by the City of Topeka.
Many camoras wore turned on the ocean when the Topcka's boat put out in response to cries and signs for help from the raft carrying- eighteen persons, and none of the pictures Indi
cate an extraordinarily rough sea. The survivors had signaled the steamer Queon. .but without avail, and Captain Cousins of that vessel has been denounced for not ordering one of his boats
to tho rescue.
Frank K. Bunker, who lost his wife and two children in the WTOck. has made several ugly charges against the company, asserting that the life preservers were of tules instead of cork;
that six members of the Valencia's crew landed at Cape Bcalo in one of the ship's boats, while no passengers were saved by that craft, and that the plugs In the bottom of lifeboats would not fit.
W. E. Pcarcc, manager of the Pacific Coast Steamship Company, has gone to Seattle from San Francisco to investigate these charges.

wreck to the outside world. She stated
that some one had tried to converse with
her from a hut"
. This person was afterward found to
be F. F. Bunker, who, on bohalf of his
5pa'rty, who, he- stated, were -nearly dead
and could go no further, made a plea ror
assistance. Mr.and Mrs. Patterson "kept

and took no time whatever for sleep.
The wrecked -mon- -slept howc-er, with
the sleep of utter exhaustion.
Next morning they, were informed by
Mrs. Patterson that 'parties had started
out from all directions, and that help
would reach the Valencia and the party
headed by Mr. Bunker. There was a
heavy storm raging in the morning, how
ever, and McCarthy's party bollcved that
all was up with the ship, and that. "she
had probably gone to pieces. Witness
then told of the journey to Bamflcld j
lighthouse and going aboard .the Salvor,
lying in Bamllold Creek. This was on
Tuesday night
Salvor Stays in Safe Harbor.
"What did the Salvor do?" was asked
McCarthy.
"She stayed thorq all night"
"Did her captain know where the wreck
was?"
"Yes, .sir, but Captain Troup saw there
was a "heavy sea on and it was. then Tory
dark. Wc also thought that the Valen
cia had probably -broken up by 'that" tlfric."
Going buck to the launching of the
boats from the wreck, some of the most
Important of McCarthy's testimony was
brought out
"Was it not the Intention of Captain
Johnson to lower the boats only to hc
saloon rail and.lash them there?" was
asked the witness.
"Yes, sir."
"If the boats had been held at the sa
loon deck rail would there have been any
hope of getting them off through the
breakers at 'the proper time?"
"I Chink so, sir."

"Could lifeboats holding forty people
have gotten through- tho surf next morn

'"Yea. sir; if well manned." ' )
"If there had been a llfcsavlng station
there, or near there, could lives have
been saved?"
"I think so, sir."
It was then that the witness swore that
a properly rigged surfboat from shore

it is probable that this will be destroyed
to prevent It falling Into the hands of
the Indians.
Crows and seagulls are accumulating,
brought by the scent of the corpses, and
the bodies found have been covered
with sand by the searching parties, to
prevent the birds from getting at them.
Lineman Logan reports that the birds
arc becoming exceedingly bothersome.
Survivors tell of the heroism of G. H.
Jesse, who was a prominent British Co
lumbia oarsman, in refusing to take a
place on the raft on which Conners and
Long escaped, that he might remain to
assist Ml.ss Laura VanWyck. a San Fran
cisco society girl. George Long Said:
"He (Jesse) was on board when I left,
and he was one of tho gamcst of all.
Tuesday night he not only held himself
in the rigging, but also supported Miss
Van "Wyck. I did not know who she was
at the time, but have recognized her and
Jesse from pictures in the papers. Miss
Van Wyck broke down at times, and It
was then that Jcsfc showed his great
determination by clinging on and at the
same time trying to succor Miss Van
Wyck. Mrs. Jesse was a man in a thou
sand, and when I left the vessel he was
still clinging to the rigging with MUs Van
Wyck In his arms."
Conners said:
""I saw Jesse and know him, as he was
a particularly striking man. He wasta
little further on the mast than I when
the topmast broke. I was carried down,
and he had a hard time to keep In the
rigging, holding Miss Van Wyck.
"I called to him to come down and
take a chance on the life raft but he
replied: Nb, I have someone here to
look after, and will stay and take my
chances."
"It Miss Van Wyck had been saved she
would have owed her life to Jesse, as
he did his utmost to save her, preventing
her from falling from the rigging several
times. He was still clinging to the rig
ging holding Miss Van Wyck when I left
It Is very likely he was drowned while
still trying to save the young woman."

Valeria was lost now totals 2L Three
more bodies were found this morning,
one of whom Is stated In dispatches to
have been Simon D. Holllstcr, but It Is
believed here by steamship officials the
name Is H. Hoelschcr, of San Francisco.
The tug Lome was held back, awaiting
tho assembling of the party of searchers
and to allow the undertaker to secure a
number of coffins for the burial of vic
tims whose bodies cannot be brought to
Victoria. She will sail about 3 P. M., tak
ing an undertaker, a carpenter to make
rough coffins and a party of prospectors,
sealers and others, who will be formed
into land parties to scour the shore lino
for bodies.
Advices received from the land party
which saw tho final destruction of tho
Valencia and tried to make fast lines
shot aHhoro from tho wreck, say that If
a two-Inch line had been bent on the

and caught by Lineman Logan, thero
would have been a chance of saving
many.
Three lines were shot ashore, hut ono
of which reached the cliff on which stood
the three men. and all were thin spun

were taken at 6 o'clock in tho evening,
showing a depth of more than 249 fath

ion, the witness said, that the Valencia
was somewhere off Umatilla reef, and
changed his course north to half east.
At that time the lead showed CO fathoms,
and thereafter until the ship struck the
vessel was running at half speed.
Asked by Inspector Whitney how the
captain determined the vessel was off
Umatilla reef, the witness said that the
logs of vesseis northbound generally over
ran the ships.
"It was my first trip on the Valencia."
said Peltcrson. "and the first mate said
that the ship's log generally overran the
distance 6 per cnt"
The witness said the soundings indi
cated that they were' getting further Into
shoal wator all the time, and that the
captain shaped his course further to the
westward.
The witness denied that there was any
panic aboard the ship after she struck,
but was of the opinion that had the pas
sengers left the handling of the boats to
the crew more persons would perhaps
have been saved. The captain's orders,
he said, were to lower the boats to the
ship's rail to be held for emergency.
F. J. Campbell was lu the second boat
that left the slde'of the ship and landed
on the rocky beach near the stranded
vessel. He said that the nine persons to
get ashore from the first two boats struck
inland at daybreak without making any
concerted attempt to rescue the pcoplo
aboard ship at that time.
The testimony of Marks and Samuels
brought out no new features. The In

the small bay discovered on Sunday by
Lineman Logan and party near Darling

landing there and secure the bodies on the
beach. The Indians would not attempt a
landing, saying the sea was too rough.
Captain Harris, then lowered a dory
manned by a white crew and got quite
close to the place where Logan reported a
landing possible. On examination it was
shown there was an outer reef and the

CUTICURA REMEDIES
WORK WONDERS,
"As I was a sufferer with eczema
I 'write to teil you what a great friend
I found in Cuticura Remedies. In
six months I had
tried three doctors,
but did not get any
better. It was on
my body and on my
feet so thick that
I could hardly put
a pin on me with
out touching ec-
P "zema. My face was.
covered, my eyebrows came out, and
then it got in ray eye. I then went to
another doctor. He asked me what
I was taking for it, and I told him
Cuticura. He said that was a very
good thing,' but that he thought that
my face would be marked for life. But
Cuticura did its work and my face is
now just as clear as it ever was.
"My brother-in-law told me about
the wonderful Cuticura remedies.
I took his advice and got the Ointment,
Soap, and Resolvent. I washed with
the Cuticura Soap and then applied
the Ointment, and took Cuticura
Resolvent as directed. In a short
time, my face began to get better, and
when I had taken ons bottle of
Resolvent I could brush the scales
off my face like a powder. When I
had taken four bottles my face was as

Internally.
The Best Guaranty of Merit
Is Open Publicity.
Every bottle of Dr. Pierce's world
famed medicines leaving-the great labo
ratory at Buffalo, N. Y., has printed
upon Its wrapper all the ingredients
entering Into its composition. This fac
alone places Dr, 'Pierce's Family Medi
cines in o clasSall by themselvc. They
eannot be classed with patent or secret'
medicines because they are neither. Thhi
Is why so- many unprejudiced physicians
prescribe them and recommend them to
their patients. They know what they
are composed of, and that the ingredients
are those endorsed by the most eminent
medical authorities.
The further fact that neither Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, thn
great stomach tonic, liver invlgorator,
heart regulator and blood purifier, nor his
Favorite Prescription " for weak, over
worked, broken-down, nervous women,
contains any alcohol, also entitles them
to a place all by themselves.
Many years ago, Dr. Pierce discovered
that chemically pure glycerine, of proper
strength, Is a better solvent and preserv
ative of the medicinal principles resid
ing in our indigenous, or native, medi
cinal plants than Is alcohol; and. further
more, that it possesses valuable medicinal
properties of Its own, being demulcent,
nutritive, antiseptic, and a most efficient
antifermont.
Neither of the above medicines con
tains alcohol, or any harmful, habit
forming drug, as will be seen from a
glance at the formula printed on each
bottle wrapper. They are safe to use and
potent to cure.
Not only do physicians prescribe the
above, non-secret medicines largely, but
the most Intelligent people employ- them
people who would notfcth!nk of using
the ordinary patent, or secret medicines.
Every Ingredient entering Into the com
position of Dr. Pierce's medicines has
the strongest kind of an endorsement
from leading medical writers of the
several schools of practice. No other
medicines put up for like purposes' has
any such professional endorsement.
Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets care con
stipation. Constipation is the cause of
many diseases. Cure the cause and yon
cure the disease. One "Pellet" Is a gentle
laxative, and two a mild cathartic Drug
gists sell them, and nothing is "just as
good." Easy to take as canny.
