The OIL Trust Case.

Austin, Tex, June 6-The court Of
criminal appeals has reversed and re-
manded the case Of Hathaway vs.. state,
from McLennan county 1889 against
trusts. The court holds that none Of
the counts In the indictment charge
Hathaway a. an agent or servant Of the
alleged trust. lie Is charged as par.
ty to the conspiracy, and there lie no e,-
idenoe In the record showing that he
was one the conspiritors. One count Ia
the Indictment charges that the con-
spiracy was entered into by the trus.
tees Of the STANDARD oil trust and the
Waters Pierce oil company and three
Of the agents Of the latter company in
Texas, one Of whom is alleged 10 be
hathaway.
There is proof that the trust was for.
med as early A. 1852 between some
thirty-nine corporations, firms and
individuals, and that the trustees Of the
standard oil trust became the trustees
Of the trust thus formed. There Is
some proof that the waters.Pierce oil
company was a party 10 said trust, but
there is no evidence to show that
Hathaway was one Of the original
couspirators, or that he aferward
joined the trust, aside from the fact
that he was the agent Of that company
In Texas. As he was not ohargH9 as an
agent, portion Of the chargeAssf the
trial court was inapplicable. Y
Upon these grounds the case Is re
yersed. The court says that there are
questions raised as to the constitution
Ality Of the statute, but in the view
taken Of the case II il net now neces-
sary to discuss aud decide them.
The opinion lie by Judge Henderson.
