DR.. HYDE DENIED NEW TRIAL
JUDGE LATSHAW DECIDES THE
VERDICT WAS JUST.
ment Now-OnIy Hope Rests
in Supreme Court.

Kansas, City, Mo.-Dr B. Clark
Hyde's only hope now is in the SUI
preme court of Missouri. His motion
for new trial was denied by Judge
Latshaw. He will be sentenced to life
Imprisonment. An appeal will be taken
at once to the states highest court.
If Doctor Hyde felt keen disappoint-
ment his face did not betray it. He
showed no emotion as Judge Latshaw
read his lengthy decision, taking away
his last chance of immediate retrial
and liberty. For an hour the Judge
quoted decisions and opinions uphold
ing the states contention that no err
ror had been committed in his trial
Doctor Hyde sat impassive, seemingly
almost bored by the proceedings.
One of the striking paragraphs of
Judge Latshaw's decision was that in
which he said that in his opinion the
evidence justified the verdict.
Without attempting to review the
evidence" he said, cor to comment
upon the branches, or force or effect
thereof, it appears to be ample at least
to support the finding and verdict Of
the tryers of fact. There is nothing
in the record to disclose any bias,
passion or prejudice on the part of the
jury which tried this case"

TRIUMPH FOR THE AMERICANS
German Campaign of SANDER Against
the Deutsche Vacuum Oil
Company Falls.

Berlin.-The long and venomous
campaign waged by German newspa-
pers and rival industrial interests
against one of the German branches
of the Standard Oil company-the
Deutsche Vacuum Oil company-has
just been brought to victorious end
for the Americans involved.
A well-known Hamburg newspaper
for months printed such a series OF
attacks on the American graft meth
DDS" alleged to have been practiced
by the vacuum company in the con-
duet of it's German business that the
public prosecutor OF Hamburg felt
constrained to make an official inves-
LEGATION with a view to eventual in
dictments. The prosecutor has now
concluded his investigation, especially
Of the work of e. L. Quarles, Ameri-
can manager OF the German COM
pany's sales department, and an
nounces that no necessity exists for
pursuing the inquiry further.
No evidence of anything warranting
prosecution was found against Mr..
Quarles, and the costs of the entire in
quiry will be borne by the state.
The result of the investigation con-
stitutes a notable triumph for Amer
lean interests in Germany.
1t is not the first time that Germans,
finding themselves unable to compete
with Americans on ordinary terms,
have resorted to SANDER

A CORDIAL MEETING AT BEVERLY
President Taft and Col. Roosevelt in
Conference for Over Two Hours
After is Months Separation.

dore Roosevelt visited President Taft
at the presidents summer cottage.

Taft and Roosevelt met again. Sena-
tor Lodge and Secretary Norton were
president; the rest of the world was
barred out.
Those who witnessed the meeting
say that it was characterized by all
the old time cordially of relations be-
tween the two-That there was the
best of feeling displayed-and that
the hearty bursts of laughter that pro-
ceeded first from the president and
then from Roosevelt as they sat on
the veranda and chatted for two
hours and half was strongly re-
miniscent of the old White house days
when it was "Mr. President and Will"
But conditions had now been reversed.
AS to the talk between them-it
covered wide range of topics and
there was period when the converse
ton was carried on in low tones.
What was said must remain a
secret, however, between them for
Taft declined to make any statement
after the colonel had departed and
Roosevelt would say only that he had
had a most delightful time.

believe that the total for the country

The ex-Shah of Persia appears to
have settled for himself at least the
problem of what to do with deposed
monarchs. He is studying medicine
and hopes soon to become a practising
physician. And that is a much more
honorable and commendable proceed
ing than dwelling apart in sullen idle
ness or plotting revolutions against
his country. Some other "exes"
might initiate his example with much
credit to themselves.

WICKERSHAM TO STUDENTS
WANTS DECISION ON THE BIG
TRUST CASES SOON.
Hopes Principles May Be 80 Clearly
Stated as to Protect Against
Evils of Monopoly.

Boston, MassachusettS.-De
the growth of federal power over In
terstate commerce through the action
of congress and of the supreme court,
and telling his hearers how to ac-
quire the best equipment for the prac-
tical work of lawyers life. Attorney
General Wickersham spoke before the
Harvard Law School association. He
took as his subject, THE Relation of
Legal Education to Governmental
Problems"
"The full significance of the attempt
to check the growth of great COM
birations and monopolies," he said,
WAS scarcely perceived at the time of
the enactment Of the Sherman anti
trust law until successive interpreta-
tons of it had been given by the SUI
preme court" He expressed his re-
greet that the crippled condition of that
court had prevented a decision in the
Standard Oil and Tobacco trust cases
at the last term, saying:
ut is greatly to be desired that they
may be decided at an early date and
that the principles of the decision may
be so clearly laid down as TO afford a
practicable standard of conduct which,
while securely protecting against the
inevitable evils Of great monopoly, and
deliberate attempts to arbitrarily fix
prices and stifie competition, will yet
leave untrammpled avenues for the
legitimate development and our do
nestle and foreign commerce"
