U. S LAWYERS CRITICISED

Federal Court Of Appeals Denies Gov
ernment's Application For a Rehear-
ina of Famous Relating Case.

pect That Counsel Will Not Misuse
Legal Terms to Spread Misinforma-
ton to Attract Wide Public Atten-

Chicago, Nov. 1.-THE government S
petition for a rehearing of the case IN
which the United States circuit court
of appeals reversed the judgment nm
ing the Standard Oil company. OF
Indiana. S29.240.0OO for rebating, was
denied in the court of appeals.
Ii is authoritatively stated that the
government will now attempt to bring
the matter before the supreme court
on a writ OF certiorari
The governments petition intlmated
that if the opinion of the judges OF the
appellate court 49, GrOsscup Seaman
and Baker-were allowed TO stand II
would nullify nearly every shred oil
rate reformatory legislation Of the
Roosevelt administration.
The petition closed with state
ment that il that opinion were permit
ted to stand unmodifed it would tend
10 encourage disobedience to law u
impede the enforcement OF salutary
statutes. and largely 10 defeat their
purposes.
In its opinion oyerruling the plu
ton for a hearing the appellate court
meets the points raised by the gov
eminent. and in closing pays its re
spects to Attorney General Bonaparte
and other counsel who signed the pc
tition:
Courts have the right to expect

the courts of review not only know
the meaning of legal terms constantly
in use in discussions and opinions OF
these courts. but will not misuse such
terms to spread misinformation re-
specting a judgment to attract wide
public attention.
"A remark the germaneness OF

perceive when we say that all that
has to be done TO obviate the objection
made is to insert a clause so that the

bodied in the charge and carried out

of the charge on that point. the prof

In addition to this slight change
Judge Baker amplifed the original
opinion by two paragraphs. classifying
the courts opinion as to what consti-
tutes a separate offense. and dealing
with the governments contention that
may use another to com

lanty and heroism of those who
made that hopeless charge on

Der morning should be heritage OF

and willing TO pay just tribute TO
such deeds and such acts OF patriotic
endeavor; indeed. Americanism was
halved by such gallantry. More
than forty years after the struggle,
when the passions and preiudices en-
gendered by it have all passed away,
we can all view and talk about such
bravery and gallantry as wasexpress-
ed by Gen. Humphreys and his brave
boys as American citizens, and give
all honor and glory to them. We
trust our visitors will have pleasure
and profit while they are within our
gates and that nothing will occur TO
mar their happiness, and that both
the soldiers who followed Grant and
those who followed Lee will mix and
mingle in iraternal accord and each
will give the other full credit, glory
