Standard Oil Company Guilty OF
Rebating.

CHICAGO, August 3.-Judge Kenesaw
NJ. Lands today, in the United States
District Court, fined the Standard Oil
Company of Indiany S29, 24O, 600 for vio-
lations of the law against accepting rebates
from railroads. The fine is the largest
ever assessed against any individual or any
corporation in the history of American
criminal jurisprudence, and is slightly more
than 131 times as great as the amount re-
ceived by the company through its rebat-
ing operations. The case will be carried
to the higher courts by the defendant com
pany.
The penalty imposed upon the company
is the maximum permitted under the law,
and it was announced at the end OF long
opinion, in which the methods and prac-
tices of the Standard Oil Company were
mercilessly scored The judge, in fact,
declared in his opinion that the officials OF
the Standard Oil Company who were re-
sponsible for the practices of which the
corporation was found guilty were no better
than counterfeiters and thieves.

why he did not seek an officer and

he stated that the insult to his digni

sundry other damages, occurred to
him only upon due reflection upon
the enormity Of the offense.
Several witnesses were called for

he was lighting a cigar the boys blew
out several matches In sport, and as
he lit the last one some one pushed
him, happening to collide with the
defendant al that moment. The tes'
timony of several witnesses failed to
prove a premediated offense, but that
IL was in the nature OF an Iaccident,
and 1t took the jury but few min
utes to return vel dict Of not guilty.
There was no evidence produced to
show either malicious intent or thet
said Walton had sustained any mater

veiy funny, and while there was e
disposition to make sport at the old
mans' expense, 1t was not carried to
