has caused not only women but
strong men to faint or grow i'll.

lations OF the Sherman act or the FL
kins anti.rebate law.
He intimated that both these mag
mates are the subjects of rigid inquiry
and will be brought into court on
criminal indictments
Mr.. Bonaparte emphasized the point
that sufficient evidence to convict
be in the hands OF the department Of
justice before snits are fled. He indi-
Gated that mere prosecution would
prove of no effect unless il were con
elusive and resulted in a verdict OF

Il was evident from Mr.. Bonaparte's
