STANDARD OIL LOSES.
Middletozom agent Guilty of Selling
Dangerous Product.
[By Telegraph TO The Tribune. J

Middletown, Conn, April 10.-The jury in the
Superior Court here to-day found the Standard
Oil Company, through its local agent, John Boy
Ian, guilty of selling a quality of kerosene oil
which is dangerous and does not meet the re-
Qurements OF the state law. AS BOylan was
merely the agent OF the Standard Oil Company,
and had means OF knowing that the oil which
was furnished him was illegal and dangerous.
States Attorney Haines, who prosecuted the
case, asked Judge Case TO impose a minimum
sentence. and the judge therefore sentenced MIN
to jail for forty days and to pay a fine OF $50.
Thomas Spellacy and Charles E. Perkins, or
Hartford, who had been hired by the Standard
Oil Company to defend Boylan. gave notice or
an appeal TO the Supreme Court, and Boylan re-
ceived his liberty under heavy bonds.
This case is one which has attracted much at
tention in this part Of the country. and has been
regarded as a test case, for the Standard Oil
Company contended that the rather lax laws of
Connecticut meant when they said that the oil
should not be infammable at a less temperature
than 110 degrees Fahrenheit that the fire point
of the oil should meet this standard.
States Attorney Haines and Professor w. P.
Bradley, of Wesleyan the expert whom he called,
contended that the statutes referred rather to
the fash point, and legal battle was fought
over these points, and by the verdict Of to-day
the state it's first step toward getting better
oil from the Standard Oil Company.
The whole contest precipitated by the ex-
plosion Of some bad kerosene in lamp last
January, which resulted in the death of a little

may be said TO represent different schools Of
thought on the subject Neither Senator
spooner nor Senator Clapp would discuss the
visit TO the President. Senator Nelson, who ac-
companed Mr.. Clapp 10 the White House. said
they called to discuss another subject. tUI gave
It as his opinion that vote on the rate bill
would be reached before the first of May. Other
callers who talked with the President on rate
legislation said that he expressed himselt as
well satisfied with the progress made thus far
and predicted an agreement that would satisfy
the friends Of the administration
Some Of his visitors to-day volunteered the
Information. after their talks with the Presi-
dent, that he was considerably amused over the
widely differing stories printed under the pre-
tenoe OF giving his latest attitude on the
pending bill. One story depicted him as pledged

dents friends, the President stands where he
has stood all the time. He is for the Hepburn
bill If it cannot be improved: he is for any
amendment which will make it stronger. and
against any amendment which will weaken it.
As for the amendments thus far offered, 1 do
not Jhlnk l am violating any confidence when

oueed BY Senator Long and is against the pro-
visions of the one introduced by Senator Knox

OHIO LAWS MAY BE DEAD.
Coz. PattiS0n's Illness To Be Made
Basis of Test Cases.
IBy Telegraph to The Tribune. J


Cleveland. April 10-All bills passed In the re-
cent session of the Ohio Legislature and per-
mitted TO become laws without the signature OF
Governor Pattison are illegal and void, II deci-
sions rendered by the Supreme courts or Mas
sachusetts and Florida followed in Ohio
Further according to the decisions mentioned,
Ohio had Governor during the legislative
session as Pattison was so i'll that he could
not give personal attention to his duties.
The highest tribunals in both Florida and
Massachusetts have decided that the state con-
stitutions require that each bill passed by the
Legislature must receive the personal considera-
ton Of the Governor before becoming law. In
the coming test suits of the Aiken and Jones
liquor laws ii will be contended that the ILL
ness Of Governor Pattison made 1t impossible
TO conform to this requirement, and that hence
they are unconstitutional. This contention, If
upheld, will invalidate all bills similarly per-
mitted TO become laws.
