her system has received a shock from
which it is hard to recover. Follow

strain of caring for the child. and a

There is nothing more charming than
a happy and healthy mother of chill

that, with all the evidence of shattered

from an unprepared condition, women
will persist In going blindly TO the trial.
1t isn't as though tho experience
came upon them unawares. They have
ample time in which to prepare, but
they. for the most part, trust to chance
and pay the penalty.

The opponents OF Senator Lorlmei
will take the ground that at least
seven OF the votes that were cast for
him we're tainted with corruption and
should be thrown out, four being the
votes OF those members who con

FINES OF $4,000
IMPOSED FOR
RELATING
Two Railroads and Bethlehem
Steel Company Convicted
DEFENDANTS WILL APPEAL
Had They Been Fined the Maximum
Penalty 100000 Would Have
Been Required to Settle the Bill

Philadelphia, Jan. 5.-Judge Hol-
land In the United States district
court here yesterday inflicted fines Of
100000 each on the Philade phia and
Reading railway, the Lehigh Valley
railroad company and the Bethlehem
steel company, charged with unlawful
rebating. The government was the
prosecutor, the charge being that the
railroads RENTED demurrage charges
on freight cars used by the steel COM
pany. The defendants announce that
they will appeal the case to the SUI
preme court.
The defendant companies were
tried OH large number of indict-
ments charging offenses against the
interstate commerce laws and had the
maximum penalty been imposed the
Bethlehem steel company would have
been obliged to pay fine of $4,000
600; the I.ehigh Valley railroad COM
pany S2,2500,000 and the Reading rail-
way Sl,740,000. The jury in render
ing its verdict. however, made a
recommendation OF leniency.
In their defense the companies
claimed that because of congestion at
the works of the Bethlehem steel
company, where Improvements were
being made. they were unable to
move freight cars and that no crime
had been committed when demurrage
charges had been RENTED. District
Attorney j. Whitaker Thompson, In
moving sentence stated to the court
that he thought justice would be done
If each defendant was fined the pen
atty of $4,000 on the first count in
each Of the two indictments found
against them. During the trial of the
case evidence was presented TO show
that the demurrage charges of the
two railroads against the steel com
pany aggregated $1Sl,695 and that Of
this amount the steel company PAID
only 1891.
