band refused to allow her to even
kill any of the chickens they rails
ed at their home in Bremen and
instructed the groceryman TO re-
fuse her credit, when he ascer-
tanned that she was purchasing
groceries. He also instructed the
milkman to limit Mrs. Cline to
one pint each week.
The trouble between the couple
came to a climax on Aug. Is,
1909, when Mrs. Cline killed a
chicken. Her husband struck her
several times with his fist and
she had the aged spouse arrested
and fined in a justice court. MIR.
Cline is SO years OF age and Mrs.
Cline is 70. They were married
in South Bend on Feb. 20, 1907,
after an acquaintance OF about a
month. Mr.. Cline was represent
ed by Attorney S. N. Stevens,
of Plymouth, and Mrs. Cline's
interests were looked after by At
torneys Wise of Plymouth and
Shively of South Bend.

Mrs. Cline Given Divorce in
Kosciusko Court-Husband
Was Worth $4,000.

The divorce case OF John Cline,
OF Bremen, VS. Lucinda Cline,
which was taken to Kosciusko
county on a change of venue
from Marshall county, was tried
in the Kosciusko circuit court on
Friday morning. The judgment
was rendered by agreement and
Mrs. Cline was the only witness
examined, the plaintiff not APP
pearing in the court room at the
time. Although Cline asked for
a divorce the wife filed a cross
complaint for divorce and $4,000
alimony and the judgment rend-
cred by agreement gave the wife
a divorce and 800, besides $3.50
for attorneys fees and several ar
ticles OF household furniture.
On the witness stand Mrs.
Cline testified that her husband
told her before their marriage
THAT he was worth between $40,-
600 and $4,000. AS soon as they
commenced keeping house, how
ever, she stated she was compell-

saries of life. According to her
testimony they lived chiefly on

To Annul Hotel Charters.

The quo warranto proceedings
brought by the encouragement
to annul the charters of the West
Baden and French Lick Springs
hotel companies r set for trial
December g., at the present term
of the Orange circuit court.
These suits are an echo of the
raids on the two casinos, made
in July 1906 and have been hang

Of the fact that gambling has
been discontinued at the two big
hotels. it is not believed that the
proceedings will be pushed by

MANUFACTURE OF
CANNED GOODS
INDIANA STANDS NEAR
FRONT IN THIS PRO
DUCT.
Food Commits sioner r ports
Favorably After Examin-
ing 1913 Factories.

The state food and drug COM
missioner, under whose direction
an inspection of the 1873 GINNING
factories of the state has been
completed, has compiled a report
in which he shows that Indiana
now stands we'll at the front in
the quality of canned goods of
almost all classes. The inspec-
tions disclored notable improve
ment in the matter OF operation,
character of employees and clean
illness of equipment.
While the tomato pack ior the
season just closed falls consider
ably short OF the average pack
and the tomatoes are not of as
good color in some instances as
could be desired, the adoption of
a standard by the Indiana can
ners, establishing the weight of
a can of tomatoes and limiting
the amount of water has placed
the pack of the season on a more
salable basis than ever before.
The result of the inspections he
declares, bears out the belief OF
the trade that the Indiana can
ners operate in a more Clearly
way, in better buildings and with
more intelligent help than the
Gamers OF other states, and that
the goods they pack are superior
in quality and worth a higher
price on the market.
The combination of a fertile
soil land favorable climate has
made of Indiana a state pre-em-
inently adapted to the growing
Of fruits and vegetables says
the state food commissioner.
When, in addition to cheap pro-
duction and bountiful crops, the
central location OF the state and
it's proximity to the great
markets is considered, it is easy
to see why the canning industry
has developed to such magni-
tude.
AT the present time Indiana
is one of the leading states in the
packing or tomatoes and corn
The annual output OF peas, bean:
pumpkins and fruits is already
large, and is increasing annually
1t is THE belief of the Indiana
Gamers that their goods are o
superior quality, excelling il
color and flavor the pack of othel
states. When, to this superiority
the unusual sanitary equipmenr
of the Indiana packer is taker
into account, there seems no rea
son why his goods should MOI
command a higher market thar
those of his competitors"

INCREASE IN WHEAT CROP
Six Leading Countries Produced
800, 600, 900 Bushels More
This Year than Last.

There has been an increase of
nearly 800, 600, 900 bushels, or
fully one-sixth in the production
of wheat recently harvested in
six counties of the northern
hemisphere, which in 1868, pro-
duced practically t~wo-tnirds of
the worlds supply. These coun-
tries embrace the United Sites,
Canada, France, Hungary, Rus
STA and Roumania, ana the
figures are gathered from the
latest estimate published Of the
production for each country.
These official returns. which
have been received by the de-
partment of agriculture, are
subject to revision.
After two years of unusually
abun amt yields the wo Ids lro-
dalction OF hops this year. &C
cording to reliable trade esti-
mates. will fall to a lower point
than in any year since 1882.
Notwithstanding a commercially
estimated loss of one eighth to
one-fourth in the United States
crop this country has suffered
much less than its European
competitors and will a9Gin first
rank as a producer.
Although improvem ut wa;

lower than in 1908 and 1909.

DECISION AGAINST
STANDARD OIL
U. S. JUDGES DECLARE
ROCKEFELLER COM
PANY A MONOPOLY.
Result is Giant Oil Corporation
Must Dissolve and Go Out
of Business.

St. Paul, Nov. 22.-An opin-
ion, written by Judge Walter II.
Sanborn, of St. Paul, and con-
Cured in by Judges Nandeven-
ter, Hook and Ndams. with spec
ial concurring opinion written by
Judge Hook, o. the United States
circuit court for the eastern dis
trict of Missouri, waS handed
down Saturday declaring the
Standard Oil Company OF New
Jersey an illegal combination
operating in restraint of trade,
and ordering its dissolution. The
opinion of the court was filed i
multaneously in St. Louis and
in St. Paul. In this Hecision the
government OF the United States
wins a sweeping victory and ac-
cording to Frank b. Kellogg, OF
this city, who was the govern
ment's special prosecuting Off r
the government has won every
point for which t contended. The
case will be appealed direct to
the United States supreme court,
as the Judges who signed Satur-
days decree are in effect the
judges OF the United States cir
cult court of appeals. although
thew yer called upon for the
purpose of trying this case as the
circuit court for the eastern dis
trict of Missouri.
The decree Of the court dissolv-
ing the Standard Oil company
becomes effective in thirty DAYS
when, no doubt. a stay will be
granted Injunction will issue re-
straining the Standard Oil COM
pany from further continuance
OF business under its present for
nation. 1t appears from the con-
curing opinion written by Judge
Hook that the company cannot
do business under any other
form with the object OF stiffling
competition. Judge Hook, on this
subject, says, 1T is thought with
the end OF the combination. the
monopoly will naturally disap-
pear. But, should it not do 50.
and the members of the combi-
nation retire from it except one
who might perpetuate the mono
poly by the aggregation OF the
physical properties and instru-
mentalities, cit would constitute
a violation OF the decree OF the
court"
In the trial of the case the
point was made that the Stand
ard Oil company was a beneh-
cient corporation. in that it, by
reason of economy in operation
reduced the price OF its product.
This. Judge Hook says, can have
no weight.
The suit determined by today's
decision was begun by direction
OF the attorney general OF the
United States in St. Louis, Nov.
Is, 1906. Frank B. Kellogg was
special prosecutor. assisted by
Charles B. Morrison of Chicago;
Frank III. Poole and Fl. Graves OF
the department OF justice; w. III.
Higgings OF Minneapolis, and
Cordenio A Severance of St.
Paul.
The Standard Oil legal talent
was led by John G.. Milburn Of
New York. Its defense was that
the present organization of the
Standard Oil corporation was the
result of the natural growth of
a great industry and that no law
had been violated

GRAY HAIRED VETERANS, COM
RADEs DURING WAR, HAVE
HAPPY REUNION.
MET BY, CHANCE WHILE
VISITING CITY PARK
e. r. ROBBERS, Of Mason City, and
James Adams, Of Kansas, Enlisted in
Same Regiment, and Served To-
sether Through the Entire Con-
fliet.
Special to Times-Republican.

Mason City, Sept 17.-With right
hands firmly clasped and with each
affectionately grasping the shoulder of
the other, the meeting of two old war
days of '65 presented sight which
thrilled all who happened to witness
1T. 1t was in the city park that the two
gray haired veterans, E. r. Roberts,
of this city, and James Adams, of Os-
age City, Kan, met by chance. Roberts
was walking thru the park with his
little granddaughter and they stopped
at park bench upon which another
old gentleman was sitting. He offered
to share the bench and Roberts noted
that he wore a Grand Army button
like his own. A few questions were
asked and answered, which developed
that they had fought side by side thru
the civil war in Company B Of the
Twenty-first Iowa. When they rec
ognized each other their JOY was I'M
bounded and their emotion was in the
same spirit as that which they had
| felt over forty years ago, when they
fought together to save the union.
| James Adams enlisted at the first
call in 81 from Clayton county, and
Roberts, at the same time, from Della
ware county. They We're in the same
company at the start and they re-
manned company comrades thru the
war and up to the time that the Twen-
ty-first Iowa was mustered out at
Baron Rouge, La, in 1866. Their meet
ing after all these years was memoir
able and Roberts says that suddenly
there came back to him the clear re-
membrance of the days of the war AS
he looked into the eyes of his old COM
rade, he saw there the old fighting
spirit and there came to him the vision
of camp fire and bivouac, of charge
and retreat, of long marches, and OF
l pitched battles.
\ Adams is here for a visit with rela-
\ tives and did not know that his old
company comrade lived here. Since
their meeting they have been INSOFAR
able, and their talk of the war times is
an inspirat ton. They are living over
again the four years of that memorable
struggle and all those who hear them
relate the events of that time, are inn
bued with the patriotic spirit of those
| days which is still so much alive in
II the breasts of these two men. The in.
\ cident of their meeting has attracted
much attention here and interest il
the story of their parting and reunion
