FOUR INDICTED.
Former Officers and Employees
of the Illinois Central
Charged With Conspiracy and
Defrauding the Company.

Chicago, Nov. 25.-Frank B. Harrf-
man, John NJ. Taylor and c. L. Ewing
former officers and employees of the
Illinois Central railroad, and Joseph E.
Buker were indicted today by the Cook
county grand jury for conspiracy in
connection with fraud said to have been
practiced against the railroad.
Two counts in the blanket Indictment
also charge operation of a confidence
game. Each defendants bond is fixed
at $4,000.
A total of $4,S25, $50, it is charged, was
Illegally taken from the Illinois Central
railroad by the four men named, in
company with the Osterman Manufac-
turing company, the Blue Island Car
and Equipment company, the Memphis
Car company and the American Car
and Equipment company, which also
are mentioned in the indictment.
The loss by alleged fraudulent deals
estimated by the present railroad Off
Gals was 81, SOC, 900, but the whole amount
of transactions with the car repair
companies since 1906 (when the alleged
Illegal conspiracy is declared to have
been concetved) is named in the indict-
ment.
Buker, who escaped prosecution when
arrests first were made, was indicted
on the testimony of Henry Osterman,
president of the Osterman Manufactur-
ing company, who testified that Buker
legged illegal money gained by padding
f1cia1s named. Osterman said the four
men indicted were stockholders or re-
ceived a salary as a dividend from his
company

MORE THAN EVER
Increased Capacity for Mental Labor
Since Leaving OF Coffee.

Many former coffee drinkers who
have mental work to perform, day af-
ter day, have found a better capacity
and greater endurance by using Pos
tum instead of ordinary coffee. An
Illinois woman writes:
81 had drank coffee for about TWEEN
ty years, and finally had what the
doctor called coffee heart I was
nervous and extremely respondent;
had little mental or physical strength
left, had kidney trouble and constipa-
ton.
''The first noticeable benefit derived
from the change from coffee to Pos
tum was the natural action of the kid
neys and bowels. In two weeks my
heart action was greatly improved and
my nerves steady.
''Then became less respondent, and
the desire to be active again showed
proof of renewed physical and mental
strength.
st am steadily gaining in physical
strength and brain power I form erly
did mental work and had to give it up
on account of coffee, but since using

EXPERT TESTIMONY.
Before Commerce Commission in
Freight Rate Case.

Washington, Nov. 25.-Expert freight
tariff testimony featured tOday's ses-
Sions of the interstate commerce COM
mission which is Investigating the pro-
posed advances in rates in the official
classification territory.
Several of the witnesses told in detail
of the effect of these scheduled in
creases by the eastern trunk lines,
dwelling on the discriminatory phase
of the railroad plan to meet the alleged
needs for more freight revenues.
Henry c. Barlow of Chicago, a d.
rector of the Chicago association of
commerce and for 20 years experienced
in railroad business, testified that the
class rates between New York and
Chicago were unreasonable and the
proposed advances were not fairly dis
tributed He said the railroads SEEM
ed to have selected such commodities
as they wished. had left other tariffs
unchanged and had made some reduc-
lions. He said the railroad plan put
the entire increase on only 10 per cent
Of the freight tonnage while the pre-
text of meeting wage increase applied
to 100 per cent of all tonnage.
He declared the proposed advance
put A per cent of the burden on the
stantially rs per cent of the burden
rested on shippers Of first, second AMI
third classes of freight. He estimated
substantially 10 10 of the total rail-
road tonnage in the territory affected
would bear the burden of advance. He
said that substantially So per cent Of
the total increase would be on class
rates and Is per cent on commodity
rates His contention was that the big
shippers would not bear as much of
the burden as the small shippers and
that the shippers under class rates
rates during the past decade had con-
tributed their full share of the proposed
increase rates.

is this attempt of John Schenck to
send this girl to the penitentiary. The
glory OF it to him, as his last prose-
cut1on in the county attorneys office
Is his incentive. Why does he not pick
on to a woman his size. L have known
him to have one his size and he didn't
do it. The final shot of Waters evil
IDENTIFY was directed toward Schenck
Tor releasing Mrs. Stella Barclay, the
Mr.. SchencIz's Reply.
In combating the argument of Capt.
Waters. Schenck merely recited the
testimony of the case and made sport
Of the testimony of DR.. w. S. Lindsay
IN attempting to define an insane per-
son.
Lindsay told you that he knew Mrs.
VoHstedt was insane as soon as he had
examined her left hand. 1 asked him
If he could go through a dark room and
by taking hold of hand tell US whether
the owner was insane without ever
seeing the face or body and he hedged.
He said one was insane if suffering
with a delusion based on a false
premise. 1 asked him If then the whole
population of the earth for 5000 years
that they believed the earth flat, was
insane, and he hedged again.
The history of this woman's case
shows her to have been in the same
mental condition before as after her
typhoid fever. When Capt. Waters
says Sic was morose and sullen what
is the testimony of herself and her
mother? Both testify that she wanted
the society of the young men and
sought to go with young people of her
community. Her mother refused and
she ran away from home. That was
the very thing she should have done
and what your daughter and mine, If
act.
Speaking of her helplessness, did
she not come here to Topeka and for
six months as a green country girl live
safely enough. What girl ever did
better? Finally she met her husband,
Mr.. Vollstedt, and their courtship is
like that of any couple. She remem-
bered on the stand every detail of her
history in Topeka and told how she
had managed the household. Every
act a sane act.
There was not a witness on the
stand here even among the expert
medical men who said she did not
know that she was doing wrong in
shooting Daniels. When she bought
the gun and when she took it home
and tried it in the cellar and at every
incident in connection with the re-
volver I asked her if she was not
thinking of Daniels and she said she
