New York, Aug 24.-Henry W. Walk
er. who has had an active part in ar
ranging the reception to be given to w
j. Bryan by the Commercial Travellers
Antitrust League on August 80, today
gave out a statement that politicians,
headed by Alexander Troup of New
Haven and Norman f. Mack, are try
ing to control the movement and that
the league will control the arrange
ments for the reception even if it has
to tell the politicians to retire. Mr..
Walkers statement follows:

er Troup of Connecticut; Norman f.
Mack. the national committeeman of
New York. who were invited into the
homecoming welcome of Hon. William
Jennings Bryan by the Commercial

insist upon carrying out their original
arrangements even If they have to tell

cepted the invitation from the CONNER

we think that he will appear there as
stated"

preston that the Bryan reception is a

N. Y. CENTRAL INDICTED
For Relating on Oil Shipments to tho
Standard Oil Co.

jamestown. N. Y, Aug A.-The New
York Central Railroad Co. was indicte,
by the Western New York fedora,
grand jury today on a charge of giving
discriminating and unlawful freight
rates on shipments of Oil by the Stand.
ard Oil Co., and unlawfully failing OF
filing schedule of rates with the inter.
state commerce commission at Wash
ington.
The Standard Oil Co. was again in
'ticted on charges of accepting unlaw-
full and discriminating freight rates IN
shipments of oil from the Pennsyl-
vania, the New York Central and the
Vermont Central Railroad Cos.
The indictments are closely related tr
those found by the same jury two
weeks ago against the Standard Oil Co
and the Prnnsylvan mia, in the matter OF
discriminating rates for oil shipped by
the Standard from Olean to Burliny-
ton. VT. Such shipments were over the
Pennsylvania from Clean to Rochester:
over the New York Central from Roch-
ester to Norwood, N. Y, and over the
Vermont Central from Norwood to its
destination
TOday's indictment specifies that the
New York Central made a special rate
to the Standard from Rochester to Nor
wood, of nine cents per hundred weight
while such rates were not given to
other shippers. nor was schedule OF
the same filed with the interstate COM
merce committee. The charges were
embraced in one count.
In the indictments against the Stand
ard Oil Co., returned today there were
123 counts. each pertaining to a sepa-
rate and distinct shipment Of oil over
this route. all at rates approximatins
Is cents per hundred weight, while
| rates for similar shipments from Brad
ford. Warren. Oil City and Titusville
Pa. to Vermont. were SO cents per hun
dred-weight. These shipments, it is al
legged, We're under substantially the
same conditions while the alleged dis.
ordinations accepted by the Standard
Oil Co of more than Is cents per hun.
dred-weight. were out Of all proportion
to fairness. considering the additional
distance from the Pennsylvania towns
to Vermont
The indictments were accepted by
Judge Haxel, and the jury was dis
charged. @.
