FINES OIL COMPANY SI,e2a, 900.
Missouri Corporation Convicted o1
Violating Antitrust Laws.

Austin, Texas, June 3.-A jury has
found the Waters-Pierce Oil Company
of Missouri guilty of violating the anti
trust laws of Texas, convicted it of hav-
ing entered the state by fraud, fined it
81, ,623,900 and granted the prayer of
the state for custer proceedings.
The defense has filed motion for a
new trial and the case will be taken to
the Federal courts. The state fled a
petition with District Judge Brooks for
the appointment of receiver, also an
injunction to restrain the company from
moving any of its property from the
state. The judge granted temporary
injunction and set the receivership
hearing for June s.
The trial has consumed three weeks
in the District Court here and it's con-
clusion is merely the beginning of a
long legal battle. At the outset of the
proceedings the defense attempted to
secure change of venue, but not sue
ceeding in that, vainly sought to Sc
cure judgment by default in order to
hasten their course to the Federal
courts
The basis of the controversy is the
provision of the antitrust laws of 1899
and 1908.
