S29,240,OOO Fine
AnnULLED BY COURT
UNITED sTATEe APPEAL BODY
REvERsEs FAMOUS DECISION
or JUDGE Ian DIS.


Chicago. July 23 Federal judges In
the court Of appeals lifted the burdsa
Of q $29, 240, 900 fne from the Shout.
ders Of the Standard OH Company Of
indiana Wednesday and reversed the
INDIGNANT Of Judge LandiR by which
the heaviest fine ever imposed IN q
federal court was saddled upon the oil
company found guilty on 1852 counts
Sf accepting rebates from railroads.
Speedy rehearing Of the case. which
has attracted widespread attention, Is
considered improbable, and the coun-
sci for the oil company contend that
q second conviction cannot be OBJ
tanned. 81 4
The case was remanded with instruc-
tons that a new trial be held.
The jurists making up the court Of
appeals are Judges Grosscup. Seaman
and Baker.
Judge Grosscup delivered the opin-
Ion of the court, Judges Baker and
Seaman concurring, and in sharp ar
raignment Of the conduct Of the trial
Judge intimated that he may have
presumed to hold himself above the
law. III. IF
Judge Lands Called Arbitrary.
The decision declares that the man.
ner in which Judge Lands decided
upon the number Of offenses that had
been committed by the defendant com.
pany was arbitrary It holds that
some other method than the one he
used should have been applied.
Then 1t passes to the amount Of the
fine, which it declares was sufhcient
to have wiped out many times the
property Of the defendant" The court
holds that the only company on trial
was the Standard Oil Company Of In
diana It says that this corporation
alone could be punished and that to
attempt to punish its holding corpora
ton would be to assert that person
could be punished who was never be-
fore the court or who had never stood
trial. This, the judges say, would be
to assert startling principle OF law.
Others Than Commerce Law.
The court declares that the ar
raignment Of the violation of an inter.
state commerce law was to be COM
mended and that the results Of such
violations were not too strongly stated.
It says, however, that the interstate
commerce law is not the only one in
the United States, and that it is be-
cause there are others that the case
is reversed and remanded.
On the amount of the me, the upper
court said:
Did the court in the fine imposed
abuse it's discretion? The defendant
indicted, tried and convicted was the
Standard Oil company, q. corporation
OF Indiana. The capital stock of this
corporation is $1,O0O,OOO. There il
nothing in the record in the way Of
evidence that some Of the assets Of
the corporation were in excess Of that
amount. It may therefore be safely
assumed that but for the relation Of
the defendant to another corporation
not before the court, the court would
have measured out punishment on the
basis Of the facts just stated

Comment on Punishment.

N0mment on Pun1Shment.
~ The judges then commented on the
punishment Of the defendant in such Z
large amount and continued, saying:
Briefly stated, the reason OF the
trial court for imposing this sentence
was because It was brought out on ex-
animation THAT the capital stock of
the Standard Oh Company 81 Indiana
was principally owned by the New
Jersey corporation, corporation not
before the court The trial court. add
ing that in concessions of the charac-
ter for which the defendant before the
court had been indicted, tried and
convicted, the New Jersey corporation
was not virgin offender.
Can an American Judge, without
abuse Of judicial discretion, condemn
anyone who has not had his day in
court ? That to our minds, is strange
doctrine IL Anglo-saxon jurisDru-
denco." So.

for Doan's Kidney Pills, and read
about the good work they have done

ever produced such convincing proof
Of merit.
Mrs. H. Swaggert, living at S19
Garden street, Pendleton, Ore, says:
Both my husband and myself have
used Doan's Kidney Pills with the
most gratifying results. Mr.. Swag-
CERT was troubled severely with his
back and kidneys for long time and
never received any relief until Doan's
Kidney Pills were brought to his at
tention and he procured a box at the
Pendleton Drug Co. They gave him
great relief and he thinks very high
ly of them. I also used Doans Kid
ney Pills and found that 1t anly re-
quired few doses to remove the
lameness and pain caused from dis
ordered kidneys. I really believe that
kidney trouble would be less prev

Mrs. Swaggert was again interview
ed on November 16. 1907. and said 4

Disgusting Reports Prevalent About
the Condition of the King of

London, England. Dec. 16.-FrOm a
source OF unquestioned reliability, it
is learned that both the royal family
and the physicians who are attend
ing King Edward. are deeply concern
ed over the condition of the king.
Nothing but reassuring notes are given
to the public but the kings health is
such that the mask must soon be
thrown off and the fact that a grew
ously i'll man is upon the throne be
recognized. That the king realizes the
gravity of his illness is shown by the
fact that he is rapidly unloading many
of his governmental responsibilities TO
the shoulders OF the Prince of Wales.
Under his physicians orders all royal
engagements have been cancelled.
