HUGE FINE REVERSED,
The Standard Oil Company Need
Not Pay the 29 Million
Dollars.

Chicago, July.-By unanimous
opinion OF the United States circuit
court OF appeals for the Seventh dis.
trlct, the famous case Of the govern.
ment against the Standard OIL com.
pany OF Indiana, In which the latter
was fined $26,240,OOO by Judge
Lands In the United States district
court, must be tried again.
The court Of appeals differs with
the trial court on three vital points,
holding that Judge Lands excluded
evidence ior the Standard Oil com.
pany OF Indiana, which should have
been admitted 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
imposing the maximum fine for u
first offense, he abused the discretion
vested In his court.
1T is strange doctrine" says the
opinion, "whereunder a million dol.
lar corporation such as the defend.
ant-the Standard Oh company OF
lndiana-may be fined twenty-nine
times the amount OF Its capital stock
In order TO punish a defendant not
even under Indictment. By this lat
ter is meant the parent company,
the Standard on company of New
Jersey.
This decision, concurred in by
Judge Baker and Judge Seaman,
was delivered by Judge Peter Gros-
sup who wrote the opinion. The con-
cluding sentence oithe opinion reads:
The judgment OF the district court
Is reversed and the case remanded
with instructions to grant a new
trial, and proceeded further in &C.
cordance with this opinion.

when Salem shipmasters were the

OF being the first American vessel to
