CHICAGO, March 1o-The retrial OF
the Standard Oil Company of Indiana
OH charges of accepting rebates fron
the Chicago and Alton Railroad opened
today upon a crucial stage In the face
of repeated rulings by Judge Anderson
tending to make more difficult the
proving of their case, the government
attorneys had over night decided to
abandon the idea of additions to the
bill of particulars, covering the defects
pointed out by the court. and began
arguments In the hope of inducing
Judge Anderson to reverse his decision.
The Standard Oil lawyers expressed the
opinion that the case would be brought
to close soon.
The first line of argument was against

indictment was drawn could not be es-
tablished by means of the Illinois class

PHILADELPHIA, March 10.--Crazeo
because of unrequited love, Harry
Knight. aged % years, of Plainfield, n.
j., employed in Newark, N j.,
shot and killed himself here today
by sending bullet into his head while
in the yard of the home of his former
sweetheart in the northeastern section
of the city. For three years Knight
had been attentive to Miss Nellie Nit
chell, a pretty 29-year-old girl, but two
years ago tho friendship was broken off.
The father of Miss Mitchell was
aroused by the shot which ended
Knights life, and rushing into the
front yard, found the body. A letter
full of endearments, addressed TO the
girl, was found in knights clothing.
The letter, among other things, says:
MY lost love: You have refused me
your love SO good-by. ] could not
live without you. l am going now
where nothing can worry me.
''Oh. love, | love you. I,love you and
you only. I could not live, dear, with
out you and see you marry someone
else. Please pray for your, lost love.
Il can't see you again. | don't want
to go to the bad place. If you are
able, dear, I want you to go to my
funeral Let my mother be your
friend. Poor mother, it will kill her.
Good-by, my love, good-by."

and declares that it's use in New York
has meant the saving of many lives.
The education committee of the
general tuberculosis committee meets

proposal, as already made In the
Evening STAR, is a splendid one, and /
am in favor of recommending to the
Common Council that they pass an
ordinance compelling dealers through
out the city to sell only pasteurized
milk.
1T is neither feasible nor necessary
to have SO large number of pasteur-
lied milk stations in Newark as Mr..
Straus has started in New York. The
splendid results in New York are made
possible by his philanthropy. But l
believe that pasteurized milk should
be placed within the reach OF every one
in the city. In New York, at the dis
tributing stations, it is sold at cent
g. glass"
Although it is growing late in the
session of the Legislature, it is under
stood that the crusaders against the
white plague in Jersey will shortly
have a bill introduced, making 1t pos
sible for cities of the first class in the
State to establish municipal stations
for the sale OF pasteurized milk. 1t lis
understood that Governor Fort and
both branches of the Assembly are en-
tirely willing to do whatever they can,
by legislative enactment to aid in the
campaign.
