among those indicted along with the
American Sugar Refining Co. for Grim
NAL conspiracy under the federal anti
trust laws, Will escape under the pro-
visions of the statute of limitations,
according to an opinion handed down
today by Justice Holt of the United
States circuit court The opinion IS a
far reaching one, according TO the gov
eminent attorneys, and If upheld Is
likely to prove serious setback to
the government in many cases brought
under the law prohibiting conspiracy
in restraint of trade.
The indictments were brought in con-

Harmed pleaded that the plant was
closed down and the entire transac-

completed before Jan. 4, 1903. There

The government attorneys on the
other hand pleaded that the crime
charged against liissell and Harmed
was continuing offence" and that as
long as the conspiracy continued and
the plant of the Pennsylvania Co. re-
manned closed through the action Of
the American Sugar Refining Co.. the
three year period of the statute OF
limitations should not begin to run.
Justice Hollis opinion overriding the
contentious of the government attor-

statutes of limitations are bene-

community and Justice to persons
charged with crime require that Of

place in sensible construction. Their

The Last at Hickman, Ken.

Hickman. Ky. Oct. 2e-After "a
hours on the Mississippi river, with a
mile or so on the Ohio thrown in,
President Taft arrived at Hickman
| this evening and made an address
from stand erected on the levee. This
being Mr.. Taft's only stop in Ken
lucky on his present trip, people came

him.
Tonight the excursion feet of doz-
en- or more packets which the Presi-
dent is leading to the Gulf Deep Wa
terway convention at New Orleans, is
proceeding down the big river under a
brilliant moon just rounding to full
ness. The weather is delightfully."- cool.
President Taft is finding the river
trip restful and enjoyable. On the
lighthouse tender Oleander he is sur
rounded only by a few members of his
own party and is the guest Of Com
mander f. H. Tillman of the United
States navy, in charge of the light
house district from Cairo to New Or

on the Mississippi river for four years
and knows it's possibilities it's difficult

some plan can be devised by which at
least 10 feet of water can be secured
at all seasons. He saw today, however,
many caving banks. evidences of how
the channel constantly is undergoing
radical changes, and how the piece
meal work of Improvement in the past
has gone for naught.
In the three brief speeches he de-
livered with husky voice today at Cape
Girardeau, Mo, at Cairo, Ills, and at
Hickman. Mr.. Taft reiterated his po-
stion in favor of deep waterways
wherever Il can be demonstrated that
the plans for Improvement arc feast
BILE, are necessary and can be carried
to completion without too great eX-
penditure of money. At Cairo the Pres
ident was followed by Speaker Cannon
who declared that he approved Pres
ident Taft's declaration in nearly every
particular and wished he could APP
prove them to all. He still balls, how
ever, at the Presidents proposal to is
sue bonds to carry forward the work
of improvement, once it has been de-

Only the hardy Grand Manan fisher

the storm of this morning was of such

Against the gale which threatened

mand of Capt Gaskill, was the only
craft headed for the now nearly sub
merged steamer. After an approach
to within a mile she too was forced to
retrace her course.
The life savers at Seal Cove were
notified as soon as the vessel was
sighted on the shoal. but it was some
time before they appeared on the
scene, although they launched their
station boat Immediately Its progress
was still slow in the heavy seas and
it was not until the middle of the af-
ternocn that they reached the scene.
When they reached the vessels side
she was nearly submerged and the men
were clinging to the superstructure.
Getting them aboard was no easy mat
ter and then the half dozen survivors
were brought to the Seal Cove station,
where they remained tonight.

Ito was assassinated at the Tsaiusa-
gan Railway station here today AT the
moment the japanese diplomat was ac

had greeted him as he stepped down
from the coach that he had occupied
in the railroad train. Smiling and bow

ward the Russian finance minister.

the station platform a few PAGES dis
tant Suddenly a half dozen revolver
shots fired in quick succession were
Z heard, followed by the cries of those
standing near the prince, who had
either been wounded or imagined
themselves to he. At the second report
Prince Ito staggered and fell faint
ing. 1t was subsequently found that he
had received three bullets, two Of
which entered the abdomen. After
fainting Prince Ito did not recover con-
seriousness and died 20 minutes later.
The fusillade Of shots threw the
crowd into a panic and it was some
time before it could be determined who

prince and who had escaped. When
the excitement attending the fainting
of the prince had somewhat subsidized

been injured.
Prince Ito's private secretary re-

Manager Tanaka Of the South Man

| Brigham, Sept. S.-Much dissatisfaction
is expressed by the people along the route
of the Malad Valley branch of the o.
s. L. against the new schedule that went
into effect last Monday, when the new
motor car was put into service. Pc
titions are being prepared in the various
towns between this city and Malad, in
Guiding the latter city. These petitions
will be pouring into the passenger depart
ment within a few days.
The patrons of the branch claim that
they will be compelled to remain away
from home one and sometimes two nights
when going to ogden and Salt Lake on
business matters, as the motor car does
not reach those cities until, practically,
after business hours, and departs in the
morning, likewise, before business hours,
thereby compelling them to remain two
nights where, before the new schedule
went into effect, they would go down
in the morning, could spend the entire
day in those cities and return home 70
Malad and intermediate points in the
evening.
The business men along the line are
indignant over the matter and will not
give up until they induce the railroad
company to run the car on the old sched-
ule As far as Brigham is concerned.
the new schedule is as much to her ad-
vantage as il is to the disadvantage of
the Malad valley people. People making
short business trips to Bear River val
ley towns were compelled to remain two
nights fer a train to return on, as the
train went up the valley at night and
returned early in the morning. The car
service also brings in the morning papers
two and one-half hours earlier.
