SERIOUS CHARGES

Against Millionaire Railway President

Government In Mail-Carrying.
DIES MONIES. In, Nov. 1s.-In the ".
s. court here Tuesday action was taken
which apparently makes it certain that
the celebrated mail stuffing conspiracy
cases will now go promptly to trial.
The charge is that President John V.
Newton, of the Des Moines and Kansas
City railroad, with an alleged accom-
plicc, NJ. f. Oxford, attempted, in n
most novel and ingenious manner.
to extensively dofraud the u. S. govern
ment. During thirty days test of
the amount of mail carried by New
tons road, which was to be used to
compute the annual payment to tho
railroad company from the post Office
department, it is alleged that Newton
and oxford forwarded huge amounts of
old newspapers, waste paper. etc, with
the purpose of securing a heavy in
crease in their government subsidy.

court overruling the objections of the
defendants attorneys
