DIRECTS ACQUITTAL
Trial of Mrs. Chadwick Ends
at Cleveland.
JUDGES CHARGE FAVORED ACCUSED
Andrew Carnegie, Who Was Not
Called, Gets Paid SO1 witness
Fecs--May BE Called at
Subsequent Trials.

CLEVELAND, o., March 10.-An-
drew Carnegie is now definitely out Of
the present trial of Mrs. Chadwick.
He may appear at subsequent trial,
but as far as the existing case is con
cerned his pay is waiting for him, and
he is at liberty to 60 home.
United States Marshal Chandler has
made out check for $64,40 to Mr..
Carnegie's order, and 1t Is held in the
marshal's Office pending Mr.. Carnegie's
call for it. If he does not call 1t will
be mailed to him.
The court denied motion Of the de-
Tense TO take the case from the jury
and direct verdict Of acqulttal.
The defense made a desperate effort
to have the case taken from the jury
and verdict Of acqulttal rendered by
the court. After arguments lasting
through the greater part Of the day
Judge Tayler oyerruIed the motion.
The defense also attacked two counts
Of the Indictment and asked that GER
tain parts Of the testimony offered by
the government be stricken out. An
admission from the Judge that he did
not regard the two counts as good"
was the extent of the satisfaction Sc
cured by the defense. The acquittal
OF the defendant was asked on the
ground that the Indictment charged
her with cOnspirlng TO commit an Of
Tense against the United States in that
she conspired with Beckwith and
Spear to certify Illegally checks of the
Oberlin bank. Ii was claimed by the
attorneys for the defense that Mrs.
Chadwick, not being an officer Of the
bank, could not certify checks and
that she could not be charged under the
law with conspiring TO commit an of
Tense in conjunction with others which
she had not the power to commit alone.
In stating. his contention to the court
Judge Wing, for the defense, said
THE charge in this case is not GER
tifying checks. 1t is conspiring to GER
tify checks. A conspiracy between an
official of bank and person not an
official of the bank to certify checks is
impossible, for the reason that II re-
quires two to conspire, and person
not a bank official not having the pow
er to certify checks cannot conspre to
certify them"
He claimed also that Mrs. Chadwick
could not be punished even granting
the allegation of the state that checks
had been Illegally certified

THEIR LITTLE WAY.

Against Independent Refners.

The Kansas Railways Disseminated
Against Independent Re6ners.
TOPEKA, Kan, March 10.-ln depo-
sitions taken in the suit brought
against the Atchison, Topeka and San
ia Fe Railroad company it developed
that all of the Kansas railroads in the
Missouri freight bureau changed their
classification and tariff sheets about
the time the Kansas oil field began to
give promise of becoming important.
Under the change the only petroleum
which would be served for transporta-
tion in tank cars was that destined to
'consignee who possessed storage IA
cillties for the oil after ii reached its
destination"
This order practically prohibited in
dependent retiners from distributing
their oil, as they were unable to erect
storage tanks in all of the towns to
which they shipped oil.

Stanford witnesses Held mt Honolulu

HONOLULU, March 10.-The fact
that Bertha Berner and May Hunt,
secretary and maid respectively to the
late Mrs. Jane l.. Stanford, will not
leave Honolulu on the Pacific Mail
company's steamer China today, but
will remain until the sailing of the
Oceanic Steamship companys vessel
Alameda, is due to police Instructions
to the two women. Attorney General
Andrews suggested that they should
not be allowed to leave before the ar
rival of the detectives from San Fran
cisco on the Alameda, which is due
here today. High Sheriff Henry con-
tinues to hold out positively against
the theory Of suicide. 1t is thought
that the inquest verdict will be that
the death of Mrs. Stanford was the re-
suit of strychnine poisoning, taken
in some manner to the jury unknown"

The annual report OF the borough Of
Chatham, just issued shows that the
borough has had successful year.
The balance on hand was 81, 2,4S3.05.
Although the electric light plant
have not as yet paid, the receipts from
the water plant, which are S4,541. 10,
have counterbalanced the loss. 1t was
with this end in view that the two
plants we're combined.
The borough has been under consid-
cradle expense during the year, as they
have made an extension Of water
mains on Hillside avenue and Bowers
lane, and in addition to the electric
light plant, purchasing large number
of transformers and metres, besides
their regular yearly disbursements.
1t is hoped next year, with these com
pleted, that the receipts will exceed
So, 900 more. 1t is necessary for the
Council to raise by taxation the sum
of So, 400 for lighting the streets and
public places and the maintenance and
operation of the lighting plant, for
graveling, macadamizing and keeping
in repair the streets of the borough,
for the maintenance Of the fire depart
ment and for general Incidental ex-
penSes.
