MAY APPEAL OIL CASE.
Government Hopes to Upset Decision
Of Court of AppeaIs.

r., VI Souit OF Appeals.
Chicago, July 2l.-President Roose-
velt's statement on the Standard Oil
decision had the effect of galvanic
battery on the governments legal
forces in Chicago. District Attorney
Sims and his assistants are straining
every nerve to regain the $29,24O,O 900
fine which slipped through their fin
gers in the decision of the court of
appeals. : =
The government prosecutor realizes
that to go to trial again would, even
in the event of a conviction, mean a
much smaller fine. He therefore bases
his hopes on the theory of Attorney
General Bonaparte that the issues
may be presented to the United States
supreme court through application for
a writ of certiorari.
The course of action as now mapped
out by the government is understood
to include an application by the attor-
ney general for a writ of certiorari
and petition for a rehearing before
the United States court of appeals.
Mr.. Sims and his aides, James H.
Wilkerson and Harry A. Parkin, were
in telegraphic communication on this
subject with Mr.. Bonaparte. The To-
cal department of the bureau of JUS
tice probably will devote it's attention
to the application for a rehearing,
while Frank B. Kellogg, who will be
called into the case at the suggestion
of President Roosevelt, will, it is un-
derstood, prepare the action that is
ITO be presented to the supreme court

HEARD HER DYING -.
BROTHERS. CALL
Twin Sister Twelve Miles From
Scene Of Accident.

East st. Louis, ILL.,, July 2S.-While
her twin brother Fred was being
sucked to his death in the quicksands
of Long lake, near Mitchell, ILL.,, Merle
Huber, seventeen years old, who was
twelve miles away at home alone
shrieked and fell to the front porch
in a faint. Neighbors ran to her as
sistance and revived her.
Fired is dying. I can hear him
calling to me. He is drowning, let
me go to him." moaned the girl. Merle
made frantic efforts to leave the
house, but was held back by friends,
who assured her that Fred was all
right. The girl could not be quoted.
Five minutes later a message came
from Mitchell that Fred Huber had
been drowned. When the news
reached his. sister she again tainted
and is in a critical condition,

Cleveland Young Man Shot Under Pc
cuIiar Circumstances.
Cleveland, July 2S.-With a bullet
wound just over his heart a young
man who is registered as Louis Weber
is said to be dying at Charity hos
pital. Back of the shooting is a mys.
terry which the police of Cleveland and
Cleveland Heights, fashionable
suburb, where it occurred, have not
been able to solve. 81. 49,.
The shooting occurred not far from
the scene of the Carl Bernthaler and
Lena Zeichman murder several months
ago and as far as is known under
somewhat similar circumstances.
Weber was walking on the heights
with Miss Agnes Atkinson, the po-
lice say. Both principals say Weber
was shot by two men while the couple
were sitting on the grass The girl
helped the young man to the resi-
dence of F. p. Root and asked for
water To Mr.. Root she said they
had been sitting at the side of the
road not far from the Root residence
when two men dashed through the
bushes at the rear of them. She said
the men seemed greatly excited.
One held a revolver in his hand and
Is he ran past them he fired The
bullet struck the girls companion,
passing through his arm and into his
breast just above the heart. The men
disappeared as quickly as they came
