2-Ccut Passenger Rate In Danger.

By decision of the federal court at
Kansas City last week 10y Judge Nc
Pherson, the 2-ceDt passenger rate was
declared confscatory and unjust to the
railroads OF the great state of Missouri
The decision will have much to do with
the 2-cent rate in other states for this
decision in favor of the railroads, will
have a tendency to encourage those
corporations to push their claims in
states having like rate. 1t rs alto
gether likely that the 3-ccnt rate will
be returned.

Big Eine Goes dlimmeriny.

The big fine of 500 900 600 which was
assessed against the Standard Oil Com
pany by Judge lands, at the first trial
of that company, in which they were
charged with rebating, has gone glim-
mering At the second trial last week
in Chicago, Judge Anderson decided to
instruct the jury to find the Standard
Oil Company not guilty, on account Of
the government having not produced
evidence sufficient TO prove the charges
Of rebating. The Standards escape is
probably due to the fact they had plen-
ty Of "oil' TO pour on the troubled
waters.
