REBATE CASE STANDS.
Standard Oil More to Dismiss De-
nied-Mcy Drop Many Counts.

Chicago. April 2-Judge Lands in the United
States District Court to-day overruled the mo-
ton Of the Standard Oil Company that the case
brought against ii. charging the illegal taking Of
rebates. be discussed.
The dismissal of the case was asked the
ground that the government had failed TO make
out the case outlined in the indictment. The
court refused to accept this view Of the evidence
submitted by the government. and ordered the
trial TO proceed.
In announcing his decision, Judge Lands said:
TT is the view Of the court that the defendant
is presumed TO have known the lawful rate. be-
cause it is presumed to have known the law for
bidding the use Of any rate that is not the pub
ished rate. Under the law the shipper must
certain the rate. and guide himself accordingly"
In regard to the contention of the defence that
the Chicago & Alton Railroad had no joint agree
nent to carry freight from Whiting. Ind. to st.
Louis when it's own tracks did not cover the
entire distance between these points. the court
ruled that the railroad had filed with the Inter-
state Commerce Commission copies of tariffs
giving through rates between the points named.
thus showing that some agreement must have
been made.
The attorney for the defence asked that forty
three counts in the indictment against the conf
pany be dismissed because of the incorrect num-
bering OF the cars said To have taken the ship
ments. In count. he said figure -" had
been written in ink over figure -
Judge Lands expressed much concern when ne
heard that the indictment had been altered.
''One of these days he said. pointing his finger
at District Attorney Sims, something very pain
full is going to result from the changing of an in
dictment. The District Attorneys office would
be justified in destroying an indictment if il saw
fit but il would never be justified in altering in
any manner the face on an Indictment"
The District Attorney denied that any change
had been made in the Indictment by the gov
ernment's counsel Fhe error, he asserted,
granting that there was an error, was purely
mechanical
The lawyers for the defendants had the better
Of the argument, and II was admitted tonight
by the government officials that many OF the
counts In the Indictment might be ruled out.
Although Judge Lands did not make any final
ruling on any Of the motions offered for the
company, he declared that he favored the de-
fence certain points. and indicated that be-
tween 100 and 200 counts would be stricken out
The principal causes for this, as indicated by
the motions favored by the court. were wrong
car numbers aveTred in fOFty-three counts du-
plieates for four OF the counts and no car move
meats shown in many other counts
