TWO SHOCKING NEARBY DEATHS
Viola Woman Takes Poison and Sparta
Man Killed by Cars.

On Tuesday morning J. l. Davis took
strychnine and died few minutes later.
There was no one in the house with her
at the time but herself and two small
children and after taking it she rang
the telephone for DIR. Stormont to
come, that she had taken poison. She
told the telephone operator she had
taken It by mistake. The doctor has
tened to the scene but it was too late.
Her husband arrived in time to ask her
what she had done and she told him
that she had taken the bottle down from
the pantry shelf and touched her finger
to the contents and tasted it to see what
it was and that she had tried TO save
herself Dy drinking milk afterwards.
The bottle was plainly labeled to show
its contents and hao been in the house
for long time, but Mr.. Davis says that
he had forgotten that they had it

A fatal accident occurred Saturday, at
the Milwaukee yards, Peter Brotherson,
section hand, being run over and both
legs severed, and his head badly cut,
says the Sparta Herald. Nobody saw
the accident, and it seems hard to tell
exactly how it occurred. He was shovel.
ing coal from gondols car, along with
two Others. there being two of the coal
cars, which are between three box cars.
A switch engine came along and coupled
on, intending to move the box cars, or
one of them, to another position.
Brotherson's companions got off and
told him to stay on the car. and the last
they saw of him he was standing at the
end of the coal car. After the switch
ing was done he was missed and his
body finally discovered lying on the
rack. The engineer could not see him,
as he was hid by the boz cars, and the
suppositiop is that he tried to get off
the end of the coal car end fell, two
cars running over him

|NDICT STANDARD
ON 6,428 COUNTS

No indictments were returned
against the railroads. That will
come up later.
Standard Oil can be fined $4,000
ON each of the 6428 counts If proved
guilty.
As an instance Of how the scheme
worked District Attorney Morrison
said:
"The Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy and the Chicago & Alton
roads published lawful rates of Is
cents to East st. Louis and 1917 to
st. Louis; but carried oil for the
Standard on secret unpublished
rate of and 7 cents per 100 pounds
to those points,"
The first of 10 indictments is
one Of the most voluminous probab-
ly ever returned to any court 1t
is expected attorneys for the Stand
ard will enter appearance of the
company in court and examine the
indictments. The fine for each
count is fixed by the judge of the
lower court and is not subject to
change by the higher. The mini
mum is $1,000 and the maximum
$4,000.

CHICAGO, Aug. 27.-Twenty-one
indictments have been prepared by
the government attorneys in charge
of the investigation into alleged
rebates granted Standard OIL by the
railroads. 1t is certain a majority
o fthe indictments will be returned
when the two grand juries which
have been at work report.
No individuals will be indicted,
corporations alone being required
to make defense.
The first grand jury returned two
indictments on 642S counts against
Standard Oil this afternoon. Two
1uries were required to investigate
on account of the recent division Of
the district In which the violations
are said to have occurred.
The ten indictments charge that
Standard OIL received rebates on
shipments of oil in tanks in GAPS
instances. The second batch of in
dictments returned alleging the
Standard received concessions from
the Lake Shore road in the form
Of storage charges which were not
collected, extending over three
years and approximating $4,000.

Is MEETING
ILLEGAL?

The board of health, comprising
Drs. N. M. Baker, G. v. Genoway,
G. B. Munley and w. l.. Hall, met
at 1 o'clock this afternoon and ad-
journed Immediately without doing
any business, owing it is said to
the meeting having been illegally
called. The charter provides for
board meetings on the first Tues
day In every month or at the in
stance of the president or two
members.
DR.. G. V. Genoway, head of the
department, called the meeting and
when DR.. Baker reached the Office
he brought up the question of legal
ity. Then the doctors adjourned.
Behind all this politics looms big,
it is said. The meeting was called
more particularly to appoint a sue,
cessor to the position of sanitary in
spector to fill the place vacated by
the resignation of Frank Bunker. 1t
is understood that e. c. Heath,
former bicycle policeman, has a
strong following for the position,
but that the board could not get
things fixed for him at the, special
meeting. AS soon as the board ad.
journed the members went down
into the mayors office, but wheth.
er or not things were patched up
is unknown.
