Vermont. over the New York Central
and Pennsylvania railroads, they
will doubtless be fined by Federal
Judge Hazel the maximum on each
count. which Will aggregate $o,120,-

These indictments, based upon al
legged violations of the Elkins law,
were handed to Judge Hazel, for the
western district of New York, by the
federal grand jury sitting at James,
town, which spent several weeks in
considering the evidence brought
against the four corporations. The
jury held that the connecting lines
In Vermont were not parties TO the
alleged rebate arrangements. The
indictments are found on shipments
of oil from August. 1904, to June,
