STANDARD OIL
IS WINNER
U. 5. Court of Appeals
Scores Judge Landis--
Orders Retrial of Case

CHICAGO. July 23.-By unani-
nous opinion of the United States
circuit court of appeals for the Sew
enth district. the famous case of the
government against the Standard Oil
company of Indiana, in which the
latter was fined $29,24O,O00 by
Judge Lands in the district court,
must be retired.
The court of appeals differs with
the trial court on three points, hold
ing that Judge Lands excluded evil
dence for the Standard Oil Co. of
Indiana which should have been ad-
mitted to show proper intent in the
rate the company paid on oil; that
he erred in considering each car lot
a separate offense, and that in i'm.
posing the maximum fine for first
offense he abused the discretion vest
ed in his court. 1T is strange doc
trine, says the opinion, wherein
der a million dollars corporation
such as the defendant, the Standard
Oil Co. of Indiana may be fined 30
times the amount of its capital stock
in order to punish defendant not
even under indictment. By this lat
ter is meant the parent company, the
Standard Oil Co. of New Jersey.

him an expression OF dignity He was
arrested last night for annoying Miss
Gladys Mccarthy. a pretty little tele-
phone girl seventeen years old, who
lives at No. 192 St. Marks avenue,
Brooklyn
She told in court how Mason took the
seat next TO her on street car. which
was fitted with revolving chairs, how
he ogled and switched around. indlffer-
ent to her efforts to snub him. and how
he even put his arm over the back of
her chair and patted her on the back.
',Some OF the men on the car told him
ne ought to re ashamed of himself, but
he only laughed and wouldn't stop"
she sad. When l left the car he fol-
light In the vestioule. | screamed for
Sister Margaret. WHO ran out and

fectly horrld old thing-too old for such
foolishness."
Magistrate Manner seemed to agree
with Miss Mccarthy, for he sternly ad-
dressed Mason. who blinked sheepishly
behind his thick glasses.
What did you mean by such con-
duct-a man OF your age" asked the
Magistrate. Whereupon the prisoner of
fered the novel excuse OF having mis-
taken the girl for one of his former
wives.
How many former wives have you?"
asked the Magistrate But Mason

other information about himself beyond
admitting that his address Is No, 1868
