SENSATIONAL THEATRE CASE.
Squabble Over Show House Bring
 Varied Dcnoue ments.

Louisville. Ky. March 2.-Spectators and the attorneys engaged In hearing the Gaiety Theatre case before Chan cellor Miller, sat up today when that Jurist announced that he was going to admit to record in the case a letter he had received from "J. c. Jones'" a Cincinnati commercial traveller.
 Jones declares that in the ante-room of a well-known Cincinnati cafe, he had heard R. K. Hynicka of Cincinnati, who owns the theatre enterprise here, remark that he had had to buy that Kentucky ---." J. c. Jones says that as a Kentuckian. he was wroth to hear hts unknown fellow country man spoken of in that way, and he wrote to the trial judge in the case After long argument by counsel, the letter was stricken from the record.
 The Gaiety Theatre matter Is a long, drawn out litigation with much poli- tics interwoven in 1t. Hynicka Is at tempting to open the theatre here. and he is being resisted by the city and residents in the vicinity of the new play house on the ground that 1t vio- lates the corridor clause of the Louis vile building laws.
 As political sensation in deposi- tions taken the other day. Ed B. Green, a member of the Board of Safety, de- clared that James B. Brown. Presi- dent of the First National Bank and Democratic leader, gave the Taft Committee here $2o0 from John H. Whallen. a Democratic politician, who Is resisting the opening of the Gaiety.

REBATE TO STANDARD.
Trust Pays Only Cents; Tariff Sheet
 Shows IS Cents.

Shows IS Cents.
 Chicago. March 2.-Testimony In the retrial of the case against the Stand ard Oil Company of Indiana began late this afternoon before Judge Ander- son.
 Frederick S. Hollands. formerly chief rate clerk of the Chicago and Alton rhailroad. the first witness. testified in regard to the methods used in the office of the company in making rates and In mailing copies of the tariff to shippers. It Is the contention of the Government that the published lawful rate on oil between certain points over the Chicago and Alton was Is cents, while the oil company only paid 6 cents.
 Assistant United States District At torney Wilkerson attempted to intro- duce in evidence the tariff sheet show ing an Is cent rate between Chicago and East St. Louis. Upon objections being offered by the defense, Judge Anderson ruled that the tariff sheet should not be presented until the Gov ernment had shown that it was the rate published and filed with the In terstate Commerce Commission. The court said that this was the vital point in the case. The Government declared that proof of its publication would be presented later. Opening statements of the case were made by MT. Wilker- son for the Government. and by At torney John s. Miller for the defense. They were brief. MT. Miller said that the officials of the oil company did not know anything about the IS cent rate; that they simply took advantage of the lowest possible rate by locating a refinery at Whiting. Ind.
 We are looking to this jury" said MT. Miller, "to find a verdict based sa the merits of the controversy, not on the pipe dreams of counsel for the Government.
