RATE WAS LAWFUL RATE To-
EAST ST. LOUIS, MO.

Chicago, March 10.-Judge AndeN
son today instructed the jury in the
Standard Oil case to return a verdict
Of not guilty. This means that all but
two of the pending Indictments
against the Standard are void and will
be an abandoned by the government
The two cases not affected by today's
decision are cases involving the shipy
ment Of 1915 carloads of oil from
Whiting, Ind, to Evansville, Ind, VIA
Dolton junction over the Chicago and
Eastern Illinois railroad
The question Of whether or not the
celebrated case could be continued
was hinged on the introduction as evi-I
dnce Of tariff "a in its application to-
the Illinois classification issued mi
1899, making a rate of eighteen cents
on oil from Whiting, Ind, to East st.
Louis and which the attorneys for tha I
defense contended had been supercei.
ed by later classification
No Evidence Says Judge.
! Judge Anderson in fifteen minute
discussion of the case to the jury ex-
planned his position and announced IL
] the case was to go to che jury and q
1tverdict OF guilty was returned ne
could do nothing but set aside thts
verdict
"There is absolutely nothing on
which conviction In this case could
stand before any court in this cour-Ss
try" the court said in concluding his
| charge to the jury.
"The government has failed to prove
! its contention that the eighteen cent
rate was the lawful rate between
Whiting and East st. Louis and that
the defendants had wilfully accepted
a lower rate. There Is therefore notl-
ing to do but for the jury to bring in q
verdict of not guilty"
After the Judge charged the jury the
foreman returned the following YER
dict:
1--WE, the jury find the defendant not
guilty"
Government Coup Hlnted.
Washington, D c., March 10.-The
understanding here Is that an appeal
will lie from Judge Anderson's court
TO the circuit court of appeals. Also
that the appeal would lie from the
circuit court of appeals to the supreme
court OF the United States in the
: event that the decision in the former
tribunal should be against the COM
: pany. In fact that is the best reason
for stating that the whole issue Will
