MISS CoIT's CERTIFICATE.
Circumstances Under Which the Document
Was Issued

New HAVEN Conn.,, July 9-Much dis
cIsson and no little feeling was aroused
throughout the country over a report that
Miss Irene W. Colt of Hartford has been
admitted to the freshman class She was
examined by Professor j. D. Seymour, who
gave her a certificate. The latter announces

batch of applicants were examined she was
allowed to compete. She took the highest
number, excelling all her competitors in the
classics. The certificate she prizes highly.

NOT GUILTY.
Result of Trial for Violation Of the Inter
state Commerce Law.

ST. PAUL (AIinn.), July 9.-In the case o.:
the United States VS.. j. NJ. Eagan and C. Fl.
Holdridge, of the Chicago, st. Paul and
Kansas City road, on trial for an alleged
violation of the interstate commerce law,
Judge Thayer this morning instructed the
jury to fnd for defendants. The evidence
in the case shows that at the time of the
alleged unlawful sale of 5000 tickets the
company had on sale and publicly adver-
tised for sale TWO kinds OF tirst-class tickets
from ST. Paul to Chicago-one termed "un-
limited" which was sold for S11 so. and
one termed limited" which was sold for
81. Each was in reality unlimited, and
hence the sixth section of the interstate act
was violated. The court however, was sat
isfied from the evidence in the case that
there was difference between the tickets,
the unlimited class, under the company's
regulations, being entitled TO stop-oyer
privileges, while the company in the case
of limited tickets reserved the right to make
a continuous passage, although the tickets
SOLD were not punched in the margin so as
to limit the period of use. The Judge there
fore instructed the jury Ito acquit the de-
PENDANTS on all counts of the indictment.
