True Bills Against Refining Cor

. . + \ /.
Z NEW YORK, April Sit was under
stood yesterday, upon trustworthy infor-
nation, that while the Federal grand jury
has not completed It's Investigation into
tho alleged rebatlng practices OF the sugar
trust and the railways, two indictments
have not only been decided upon, put
actually drawn,
6Thesc two indictments, which, 1t Is re-
linbly understood, namo the sugar trust
and the New York Central Railway Com
pany, are to be the forerunncrs Of otl%11
which will name according to the same
seScral trunk lines carrying
wcstbound freight.
There Is every probability also that
indictments will be returned against the
officials OF the various companies as m
diylduals. the Elkins anti trust laws pro-,
viding for such findings
The two indictments thus far decided
upon will be handed down, It Is likely,
before next Friday. What action the
Federal authorities will take Is decidedly
interesting to lawyers. because Of the
peculiar provisions Of tho Elkns law
and the further fact that corporations nre
not, as a rule. lndlctlble. Exactly how
Henry T.. Stlmson, United States district
attorney, proposes to arrest q corporation
Is Il matter neither no nor United States
Marshal Henkel will discuss.
Tho penalty set BY the Ellsns law Is
a ino,5 OF not less than $1,000 nor more
than $40, 900. AS tho trafllc OF the sugar
trust represents a triile more than forty
pcr cent. OF the entire westbound freight
carried by the wcstbound trunk line as
socintions, 1t is not improbable lawyers
not retained by corporations point ont,
that the railways, II convicted. will not
seriously regard even the maximum fine.
The law states with great, particularly
that no Imprisonment shall be Inflicted.
