OIL TRUST WINS CASE;
s29,oOO,C0OF FINE VOID
Judge Anderson Decides That Evi-
dence Against Standard COM
pany Is insufficient.
ORDERS mot GUILTY VERDICT.
Decides Nearly ALI Technical Points
Against observation-disclosures
ment Gives Up Fight

The famous S29,24O,O0O rebate case
against the Standard Oil Company
was ended Wednesday. Government
attorneys abandoned the prosecution,
declaring that under the courts rul-
ings they could not continue the case
against the corporation. BY the direc-
ton Of Judge Anderson the jury re-
turned Il verdict of mot guilty.
Judge Anderson ruled that the gov
eminent had not produced suillclent
evidence against the oil company to
establish the points upon which they
were basing the prosecution. In his
instruction to the jury the judge dWelt
on the theory that the government had
established no case against he Oil
company.
This end of the famous case leaves
Judge X. NJ. Lands, who imposed the
enormous fine on the corporation, alone
in his judicial attitude. Ills rulings
are discredited and his opinion in the
first triad was not taken into consider
alton.
Judge Anderson, who has thus set
at naught the rulings of Judge Lands,
is a boon companion of the latter jul
rist. Both men are 'uoosierS,' COM
ing from the same part of Indiana.
They We're boys together and through
out their lives their careers have run
parallel. AS boys they freQuented the
same "Swimlnin' hole" and when they
grew to manhood both became lawyers
and Republicans in politics and both
were made federal judges by ex-Presi-
lent Roosevelt. Their philosophers
have been much he anne. and both
have been noted for their incisive
grasp Of the cases on trial before
them.
Judge Lands brought John d. Rock
efeller to the bar of his court and
the witness chair.
judge Anderson directed the dismis-
sal Of the case because there is mo
proof" He in i~nstructing the jury to
return q verdict Of not guilty, said
he dismissed the counts in the indict-
ment covering the shipments from
Chappelle because there was a fatal
variance between the indictment and
the evidence.
The Elkias law, he said, provided
that ofrenses could be committed in
only TIVE ways, n way by violating
the law on shipments carried by a
common carrier over it's own line, and
the other by violating the law on ship
ments carried over it's own and other
lines.
The indictment charged, he said,
that the Chappelle shipments were
carried by the Alton road over its own
line, whereas the evidence showed that
they had been carried over its w
and other lines.
Judge Anderson, in the first ruling
of the ~retrial, ordered that a new ven
ire be drawn when h Standard Oil
counsel raised objection to the first
panel because only three Chicagoans
were mons the $50 summoned. He
then ruled that the government in pre-
sentlng it's case should confine itself
to only t%hirty-six %ofenses, thus max
ing the highest possible fine against
the. oil company, should it be found
guilty on every count. but $4,000,
while Judge Laudis assessed the COM
pany Il 500, 900 fine.

Judge Mcpherson Rules in ia'oE
of Roads in Passenger n
Freight Cases.
RATE IS NOT RENUMERATIVE.
Kansas City Court Says Lines should
Get Return of 6 Per Cent 10
Systems Affected.

A notable decision in tavo, or the
railroads was handed down Monday
bv Judge Mcpherson Of the United
States District Court in Kansas 'ty'
in the 2-Crnt fare and maximum
freight rate cases, involving eighteen
Missouri lines. The railroads contcnu-
cd that the rates fixed by the Slate
were cOnlisrHtory, and asked mat lhe
enforcement of the statutes be enjoll-
ed.
THE question:" said Judge Mcfher-
son in his decision. lis whether the
traffic wholly within the State OF Mis-
souri,, generally referred to in the EVIL
dence as local traffic. can be carried
under the freight rate statute OF 100
at such profit as to give Il reaSOlaDle
return after paying expenses upon the
Investment, or whether such trafllc ID
carried at a loss or ut less hal such
reasonable profit. The court has reach
ed the conclusion that the rates hXcd
by both statutes are not romuneratVe
After the decision had been handed
down several railway attorneys lnt1-
mated that the railroads soon would
TO back to the Scent passenger rate'
buzz none was able to state Speclhcaliy
that this would be done. Frank HaSer-
mon made the following statement:
The 2-cent rate is the subject OF
pending litigation in Minnesota, South
Dakota, Nebraska and Kansas. 1t is
cot conceivable thai if the rate is con-
tiscatory in Missouri it can be cOmpen-
Satory in any of those States. What,
if ANYTHING. will be done in other
States has not been decided. In view
Of the thorough investigation and the
decisions in the Pennsylvania and the
Missouri cases it is doubtful whether
any state will attempt any longer to
enforce Il 2-ccnt rate act"

SLAYER OF HIS SWEETHEART.
Guy Raser Faces from One to Twenty
Years in Prison for Killing Girl.

After celebrating all night and re-
ceiving additional Instructions three
times, the jury in the trial of Guy
RaSor. charged with the murder or
Miss Orie Lee, returned a verdict OF
manSlaughter in Medina. Ohio. This
carries a penalty of from one to twenty
years imprisonment.
Orie Lee was employed in a match
factory in Wadsworth. Her home was
at Custard Hook near W,adsWOrth,
where she was raised by her grand
parents. The home of RasOr was near
by. They were friends from childhood.
They became sweethearts and were en-
gagged to be married. The wedding was
postponed several times. Miss Lees
body was found along the country road
leading from W~adsworth to her home.
The girl apparently had been shot
while riding in a buggy.
The State produced evidence tending
to show that the wheel tracks Of the
buggy and the hoof prints Of the horse
tailed with peculiarities of the buggy
and animal usually driven by Rasor.
Rasor claimed an alibi. The trial last
ed two weeks.
