into effect it would make Of the Inter-
state Commerce Act "a mere will-o'-
the wisp of legislation, a phantom sta
tute, destitute Of strength of sub
stance
The government contends in the pc
tition that the court OF appels has mis-
stated not only the record as to what
evidence was admitted, but has also
misstated the construction which the
trial Judge placed upon the statue, and
that for this reason there should be a
thorough reargument upon the only
proposition as to which the ruling of
the trial judge UP to the verdict Of
guilty, Is reversed.
The government contends that an ex
onlination of the record will show that
the court did not rule out the testi-
mony tending to show want of know
ledge, but that on the contrary all
proper evidence tending to show that
the defendant was ignorant of the
facts With reference to the legal rate
was admitted for the consideration Of
the jury and that there was ample ev-
idence tos how that the defendant did
know what the legal rate was.
In other words. the government con-
tends vigorously and with references
to the record that the reversal Of the
case as to the admission of the violence
judge with reference to ignorance on
the part of the shipper as defense
is concerned, is based upon a mtsstate-
ment by the court of the record, in the
case as to the admission, OF, the evidence
and to a misunderstanding = by the
court of what the trial Judge ruled
with reference to the admission Of evil
dence and how he really chargedathe

The government strenuously con-
tends that the effect of the construc-
ton of the statute announced by the
court Of appeals is to nullify the. In

pers ere concerned; to make it's en-
forcement impossible and to plunge the

INDIANA TO THE FRONT.
Will Soon Supply All of Milk Used
in Chicago-Due to Sanitary
Methods.

That Indiana dairymen will, before
long, supply almost all the dairy
products used in Chicago, is a report
made by State Food Inspectors Bert
w. Cohn and F. w. Tucker, who
have returned from the dairy exhibit
in Chicago. In conference with H.
+. Barnard, state food and drug COM
missioner, on their return, they quot
ed DR. H. w Evans, health commits
sioner Of Chicago, as having said:
Indiana is far in advance of I'LL
nois in the matter of sanitary milk
production, and unless Illinois dairy
men get together and bring their
products up to the high standard OF
those ~ Indiana, the latter state, in
stead of the Elgiu district, will soon
be supplying all the Chicago trade.
Chicago has an ordinance providing
tina no dairy product shall be receiv-
ed in that city except from dairy
farms inspected and approved by
commissioned inspectors. The ordi-
nance was primarily aimed at the
northern Indiana field, and to protect
the dairy interests in that part of the
state the Indiana food and drug de-
partment busted itself two years ago
in improving conditions in the field
supplying Chicago.

DEPUTY GAME WARDEN is

Alleged to Have Illegally Collected
Money From Residents of Kosci-

Charged with illegally collecting

Wabash county residents, Deputy
Game Warden A. M. Gillion, Of Lo-

rest by Sheriff George Freeman, OF
WabaSr county, and his bond has
been fixed at $4,000 The defendant
is charged with blackmail, robbery
larceny and also obtaining money
under false pretenses. He strenuous
ly denied his guilt and demanded a
trial.
Gillion, it is alleged, is one of a
number of men who were with JUS
tice of the Peace Charles Martin, oil

Gallon stands accused OF being one

PLAN TO REDISTRICT STATE.

A correspondent writing from
Washington, says it has developed
that an effort Will be made at the
coming session of the legislature to
redistrict Indiana for congressional
purposes A congressional reappor-
tionmeirt is earnestly sought by a
number OF the Democrats congress
men-elect, who were swept into
power by the Democratic landslide
this year. They fear that unless the
legislature gives them reiMorcements
by changing the boundaries of their
districts and including Democratic
territory they will be wiped off OF the
political board in 1910
Several of the Democratic members
elect are in Washington and at n
formal conferences with the Demo
cratic congressman from Indiana The
question of congressional appor-
tionment has been discussed in all Its
phases. There is no legal barrier to
a congressional reapportionment by
the coming legislature, but the chief
obstacle in the way is the Republican
majority in the state senate.
AS a means of overcoming possible
Republican opposition in the senate
the argument will be used that by
helping to change the boundaries OF
the congressional districts the Repub-
licans, especially in northern Indiana
districts, like the eighth and eleventh
can iron out their local dissensions
and differences as they could not
hope TO do otherwise.
