when the foreman announced the
verdict, the court Immediately i'm
posed the maximum sentence of
$1,000 fine under the provisions of
the so-called Donnelly Anti-monopo-
ly Law of this state. The conviction
is the first under the new law and
will probably be fought to the high
est court in the state.
The significance of the verdict lies
not so much in the relatively trivial
amount of the fine imposed as in the
intimation made by John B. Stanch-
field, of counsel for the defense, that
"a finding against the company,
which, he said, supplies 5000, 900
customers, would mark the first step
in its ultimate dissolution.
The American Ice Company.
though tried under the laws of New
York, was incorporated under the
laws of New Jersey for $4O,O00,OOO
and later taken over by the Ameri-
can Ice Securities Company, of the
same state, after a drastic reorgani-
cation.
The company has plants in New
York, Washington. D. c., Baltimore
and Philadelphia, and has absorbed
many smaller companies along the
Hudson River and in the Maine ice
fields. Before Wesley N. Oler was
elected president of the company,
Charles w. Morse, the convicted
banker. was active in its affairs.

1ALLS ZELAYA ARCH CRIMINAL
Senator Rayners Denunciaton Of the Nicaraguan Des
pot---Hot Speech in the Senate.

to which the resolution was referred,
assured Mr.. Rayner that the COM
mittee would act without delay and
that he. himself, would then have
occasion to address the Senate. 1t
Is the general belief that with per-
haps some slight modification the
committee will approve of Mr.. Ray
ner's resolution, and that the SEN
ate. and subsequently. the House, will
carry out the purpose of the reso-
luton by authorizing President Taft
to use all the military and naval
forces Of the government that may
be necessary to seize Zelaya and to
punish him for his crime.
Senator Rayner made it clear at
the very outset of his address that
his resolution was aimed at President
Zelaya himself, and not at the peo-
pie of Nicaragua. Upon Zelaya alone
he placed the responsibility for the
murder Of the two Americans, and
upon him alone, therefore, should
fall the punishment. Mr. Rayner
favors actual corporal punishment;
he did not, demand an indemnity,
which could come from the pockets
of the unfortunate people over whom
Zelaya has reigned with rod of iron
for many years, and that they should
be taxed to pay for his crime. He
suggested. Zelaya's capture by the
American forces, and his trial by a
military commission, and he cited
many precedents and opinions in
favor of his position.

Copenhagen Especially DR.. Torp,
rector of the University of Copen-
hagen, said that the charges publish
ed in the New York Times against
DR.. Frederick A. Cook are based on
pure fiction. Nevertheless, he add
ed, he would accept the offer to ex-
anime the documents prepared by
Loose and Dunkle. which the Times
has agreed to send to Copenhagen,
Walter Lonsdale, secretary to DR..
Cook, who brought the explorers
records to Copenhagen, also declared
that the accusations published IN
New York and London against DR..
Cook were totally unfounded. He
said that the papers delivered to
the University of Copenhagen con-
tanned the original observations
made by DR.. Cook during the expe-
dition without alterations
Mr.. Lonsdale stated iurther that
the explorers report was founded on
these and dictated by .1r. Cook to
him, no other person having any
thing to do with it. Loose and
Dunkle, Mr.. Lonsdale aided, were
guests at the Waldorf storia dur
ing DIR. Cooks stay tn -e, but the
explorers acquaintance with them
was slight.
The committe which will examine
DR.. Cooks records is composed OF
the following: President, Prof.
Ellis Stromgren. director of the
astronomical observatory; DR.. G. F.
Pachule, astronomer, attached to
the observatory; Gustav Holm, ex-
plorer; Prof A. B. Yensen, presi-
dent of the school of navigation;
DR.. Royder, director of the meteor
illogical office, and Dr. F. A. Eng
strom, director of the Lund Observ-
atory.
A summary of the afidavits of
persons claiming to have aided DR..
Frederick A. Cook in the preparation
of his Polar data, published in Lon
don and New York, was read here
with amazement Scientific circles
are inclined to be incredulous re-
garding the charges and some per-
sons like Dr.. Carl Burrau, the
Astronomer, consider them so inn
probable that their effect will be to
strengthen confidence in DR.. Cook.
In an interview, DR.. Barrau said
FdSSaS0S III Inc SCOIy lCIS5A dPu-
ed here give me the impression
that the matter is thoroughly un-
trustworthy. Take, for instance,
the statement about Capella. Ca
pella neither rises nor sets in the
Polar regions, but remains fixed
over the horizon. In order to make
observations at the North Pole a
more extended and more detailed
knowledge is necessary than is en-
joyed usually by the average ships
captain.
ut will, however, be easy for the
university to determine the truth or
otherwise of the charges"
