PERSIA CABINET OUSTS SHUSTER American Treasurer General Relieved From His Post at Demand of Russia (By Associated London, Dec.

26. The proclamation of martiaMaw at Teheran following the dismissal of W. Morgan Shuster by the Persian Cabinet and the fragmentary reports received as to a very bloody massacre by Russian, soldiers at Resht are causing serious apprehen sion here. Little additional Information regarding the reported massacres has been received. According to the latest advices the main trouble occurred last Sunday, when the killed at Resht are Mid to have numbered hundred, including some women and children.

Direct dispatches from Teheran make no reference to these1 serious casualties and a report from the Russian consul at that point states that order is new restored, although he, is preparing for further outbreaks. The stateglc point of 350 miles to the northwest of Teheran, Is another center of constant and serious collisions between'' the Russian and Persian elements. The small force of Russians that has been sta tioned there for some time has been recently reinforced. The Russian troops have come into contact on several occasions with the populace, and one. dispatch received here says the Russian artillery swept the streets, while another.tlhrough Russian sourc es, says that a condition of anarchy exists, even the banks being without adequate military guards protect their funds.

The; latter is evidently' a suggestion on the part of the Russians that a strong military force Is essential to, safeguard vested property interests in Persia and as giving an explanation for the decisive exercise of force by Cossacks at various points, THE RAILROADS CALLS FOR CREWS ON THE READING Standing of Reading Division Crews and Extra Men After 4.30 A.

H. Cheney. The population, of Hillside is made up largely of, college students, and the isherllT says they are apt to "bust out of at any minute.

26. The ten Chicago packers now on trial in the United States District Court on charges of having criminally violated the provisions of the Sherman anti trust act made a plea for an Immunity bath at the hands of United States District Judge George A. carpenter, today. When the trial was resumed after the Christmas holiday John S. Miller, one" of the attorneys for the millionaire beef barons, injected a iew phase into the much complicated pro Mr.

Miller made a formal motion to Judge Carpenter that the Government be enjoined from Introducing any evidence tending to show the existence of a pool among the packers prior to July 1, 1905. Mr. Miller urged that any evidence of such a pool that the Government might have be given to Judge Carpenter and not in the presence of the Jury. Miller's move was in effect a revival' of the famous immunity plea successfully used by the packers several years ago when they were prosecuted by the Government. He moved that all testimony in the present case relating to transactions prior to July 1, 1905, be excluded as Incompetent.

Counsel contended that the immunity, plea, applied, to all of the ten defendants who testified before the Garfield investigating commission. "Substantially our objections were stated in our plea in abatement before the opening of this trial," said Attorney Miller. 1 "All of these defendants gave testimony before the Garfield commission in 1905, and on the immunity plea seven of these de fendants were acquitted. "Tilden, Heyman and Fowler were not indicted at that time and that is why this plea of immunity was not put forward In their favor. We now make the point In their favor as well as In behalf of the other seven." Counsel for the Government con tested the motion on the ground that the court had already passed on the question in ruling against the plea in abatement.

Judge Carpenter re served decision on the motion and dl rected the Government to proceed with the case. The Government then called its first witness, A H. Veeder, one of the counsel for the packers. It was in Veeder's office that headquart ers of the old beef pool, which the packers admit existed, was maintained prior to the organization of the National Packing Company, which the Government maintains is still the same old beef trust only in a form which the packers have sought to legalize. In reply to questions, Attorney vae der said he planned the organization Swift Company, the corporation, in 1885, and had been counsel for the corporation ever since, and said that on numerous occasions he served as a director of Swift Company and its subsidiary companies.

The witness said he assisted in the organization of the National Packing Company March 18, 1903, and served as a director for sixty days. Later he acted as general counsel for the sor poration for a year. He said Swift, Armour and Morris owned the stock of the National Packing Company. The Government has subpoenaed 300, witnesses and is carefully guard lng the list of names. The Government will trace the history of the alleged packers' combine step by step to the time period covered in the Indictment in an effort to prove that the Chicago packers fixed the prices of meat and suppressed competition.

It may take three months or more fore the prosecution to conclude its case. The members of the Jury enjoyed a Christmas tree yesterday with their families. The tree was arranged by Judge George A. Carpenter in his chambers It was the gift of Mrs. Carpenter, the Judge's wife.

The jurors were surprised. They did not even know they would be allowed to see their families until they walked Into the chambers and met them. Several children also romped about the room. Two guards were on watch In the room and secret service men watched outside. $1,550 AWAITS OWNER Roll of Money Found In Gutter is at Police Station Philadelphia, Dec.
