MILK TRAIN HITS AUTO
sMASHEs MACHINE AND KILLS
THREE OF ITS OCCUPANTS.
Long Ride Through the Country by
Merry Party of Five Ends in
Tragic Accident.

Herkimer, N. Y.-Emerging swiftly
from the end of a covered bridge.
which deadened sound and cut
containing three women and two men
was struck and torn to pieces by
milk train of the New York Central
railroad four miles north of here,
The dead: w. II. VanWie, civil
engineer, of Fultonville, owner of the
machine; Fred Harvey chauffeur, of
Amsterdam, N. Y; Julia Ellington of
Fultonville, died on train enroute to
this city.
The injured: Mrs. Van VIE, wife
of the man killed. condition serious;
Gertrude Jones of Rome, N. Y, in
Little Falls hospital, expected to die.
Miss Ellington and Miss Jones were
the guests of Mrs. VanWie. The par
ty had set out early in the afternoon
for long ride through the country
and were on their way to the VanWie
home in Fultonville when the tragic
accident occurred. The end of Kast's
bridge, which is an enclosed struc-
ture, is only few feet from the rail-
road tracks. AS the machine sped
across the span the members of the
party were talking and laughing. The
sudden Shrek of a train whistle and
the futile jolting of the machine as
Harvey in desepration threw down
the brakes brought them to an abrupt
and terrible realization of their peril.
Harvey and Hicks, the engineer Of
the milk train, had seen one another
at the same moment, but it was too
late.
The big five-passenger car reached
the middle of the track just as the
engine of the train reached the cross
ing. The next instant the members
of the automobile party were flung
into the air and the machine was
ground to bits beneath the train.
Hicks stopped as quickly as he could
and rushed back with the train crew.
They found Mr. VanWie and Harvey
| dead They had been on the front
seat of the car and had received the
direct impact of the collision. All
three of the women were still alive
and the railroad men carried them
to the train and started at high
speed for Herkimer.

ORDERS STANDARD OIL CO. DISSOLVED

stock. So far as the owners of the
stock of the subsidiary corporations
and the corporations themselves were
concerned, after the stock had been
transferred, section six of the decree
enjoined them from in any way con-
spring or combining to violate the
act or to monopolize or attempt to
monopoliZe in virtue of their owner
ship of the stock transferred to them,
and prohibited all agreements be-
tween subsidiary corporations of other
stockholders in the future, tending to
produce or bring about further viola
tions of the act.
Defines Section Seven.
by section seven, pending the ac-
complishment of the dissolution of the
combination by the transfer of stock
and until it was consummated, the
defendants named in section one, con-
stituing all the corporations to which
we have referred, were enjoined from
engaging in or carrying on interstate
commerce.
And by section nine, among other
things delay of 80 days was granted
for the carrying into effect of the di-
rections of decree. So far as the de-
cree held that the ownership of the
stock of the New Jersey corporation
constituted a combination in violation
of the first section and an attempt to
create monopoly or to monopolize
under the second section and COM
manded the dissolution of the combi-
nation, the decree was clearly appro-
pirate. And this also is true of section
five of the decree, which restrained
both the New Jersey corporation and
the subsidiary corporations from do
ing things which would recognize or
give effect to further ownership
in the New Jersey corporation of the
stocks which were ordered to be
transferred"

GoMPERs, MITCHELL AND NOR
RlsoN SAVED FROM JAIL
TERMS BY HIGH COURT.
SENTENCES ARE UNWARRANTED
Men Only Guilty of Minor Contempt
and Should Have Been Punished
by Fine to the Bucks Stove g.
Range Co., Holds Su-
prone Tribunal.

Washington, d. C.-L Labor won
practically a complete victory in
unanimous decision by the United
States supreme court in the contempt
cases against Samuel Gompers,- John
Mitchell. and Frank Morrison, officials
of the American federation of labor.
The court held that the imposition
of Jail sentences was unwarranted by
the nature of the contempt. They
were guilty only of civil contempt and
should have been punished by fine
measured by the wrong done the COM
plainants, the court held. In view of
the fact that the fight between the
Bucks Stove & Range Co. and the
federation, which resulted in the con-
tempt cases, has now been patched
up, the court in its decision ordered
the lower court to dismiss the cases
entirely. The sentence imposed by
Justice Wright in the trial court were
one year for Gompers, nine months
for Mitchell, and six months for Nor
rison.
Lamar Reads Decision.
Justice Lamar read the decision.
"The court of appeals" he said, held
that this contempt case was not part
of the main cause between the Amer
ican Federation ofLab or and the Bucks
company and yet the three defendants
were called as witnesses and made to
testify against themselves which
would not have been the case if the
controversy were separate. 1t is
purely a civil case. The only relief
was the imposition of fine, payable
by the three defendants to the Bucks
Stove & Range Co. There was a fatal
variance with the procedure when the
court imposed Jail sentence. 1t was
fundamentally erroneous"
Judgments Reversed.
The last paragraph of the decision
reads: THE criminal sentences i'm
posed in the civil case therefore
should be set aside. The judgments
of the court of appeals and the su-
preme court of the District of Colum-
bit are reversed and the case remand
ed with decision that the contempt
proceedings instituted by the Bucks
Stove & Range Co. be dismissed but
without prejudice to the power and
right of the supreme court of the Dis
trict of Columbia to punish, by prop
er proceeding, contempt, if any COM
mitted against it."

defense of the ten indicted meat pack

"kinklnn the Bucket. y

When we speak facetiously of some
as having kicked the bucket" we
employ phrase that would seem to
be piece of latter-day slang, but, as
matter of fact, it dates back to old
England. when. about the year 1925,
one Bolsover hung himself to a beam
while standing on the bottom of q
bucket and then kicked the bucket
away. Although at first used only in
cases of suicide, 1t has been applied
in the course of years to any death,
without distinction.

The official reason given for the res
ignation of Mr.. Dickinson is the pres
sure of personal business in Tennes-
see. There is no reason given for
the appointment of Mr.. Stimson other
than that the president regards him
as qualified for the place. To friends
the president said that his opinions
of Mr. Stimson were well known be-
cause he had spoken of him in super
lative terms during the recent cam
paign in which Mr.. Stimson was de-
feated for the position of governor of
New York. Mr.. Stimson has no spe-
cial military training although it is
said he is fond of the military and
was at one time in command of
Squadron A. A report that there had
been friction between Secretary of
State Knox and Mr.. Dickinson be-
cause of the sending of troops to the
Mexican border was denied here.

DECLARES WOMEN CAN'T DRINK
Aged Female Saloonist Thinks Her
Sex Has Not Mans Capacity

Boston, Mass.-Four glasses of beer
are enough for the average wom-
an, for they are all she can stand
without becoming foolish. A woman
needs to drink, just as man does,
but she must remember she can't
stand as much, because the longer the
hair, the shorter the sense. So de-
clares Mrs. Christiania Berresheim of
RoXbury, who is rs and still tends
her bar in her own saloon and is the
oldest barmaid in the Bay state and

A trial package of Munyon's Paw Paw
Pills will be sent free to anyone on re-
quest. Address Professor Munyon, SD
Jefferson Sts., Philadelphia, Pa. If you are
in need of medical advice, do not fail to
write Professor Munyon. Your communi-
cation will be treated in strict confidence,
and your case will be diagnosed as care
fully as though you had a personal inter
view.
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are unlike
all other laxatives or cathartics. They
coax the liver into activity by gentle
methods. They do not scour, they do
not grippe. they do not weaken, but they
do start all the secretions of the liver
and stomach in way that soon puts
these organs in a healthy condition and
corrects constipation. In my opinion
constipation is responsible for most all
ments. There are 20 feet of human
bowels, which is really sewer pipe.
When this pipe becomes clogged the
whole system becomes poisoned, caus
ing biliousness, indigestion and impure
blood, which often produce rheumatism
and kidney ailments. No woman who
suffers with constipation or any liver
ailment can expect to have clear
complexion or enjoy good health. II
i had my way / you'd prohibit the sale
Of nine-tenths of the cathartics that are
now being sold for the reason that they
soon destroy the lining of the stomach,
setting up serious forms of Indigestion,
and so paralyze the bowels that they re-
fuse to act unless forced by strong
purgatives.
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills arc q tonic
to the stomach. liver and nerves. They
invigorate instead of weaken; they en-
rich the blood instead of impoverish
it; they enable the stomach to get all
the .nourishment from food that il put
into it.
These pills contain no calomel, no
dope; they are soothing. healing and
stimulating. They school the bowels
to act without physic.
Regular size bottle. containing As pills,
25 cents. Munyon's Laboratory, SD d

HIGH TRIBUNAL UPHoLDS ORDER
OF LOWER COURT WITH
SLIGHT MODIFICATION.
ALLOWS COMBINE SIX MONTHS TINE
United States Government Wins Big
Suit Charging Violation of Sher-
man Antitrust LaW-Decision
Announced by Chief Justice.

Washington, D. C.-The supreme
court of the United States ordered
the Standard Oil Co. of New Jersey
dissolved The decision announced
srom the bench by Chief Justice White
upheld the order of the United States
circuit court with slight notifications.
Justice Harlan read a dissenting
opinion in the case. "Our conclusion
;s,' said the chief justice, that the
decree below was right, and should be
affirmed except as to the minor mat
ters concerning which we have indi-
Gated the decree should be modified.
Our order will therefore be one of af-
firmance with directions, however, to
modify the decree in accordance with
this opinion, the court below to re-
tain Jurisdiction to the extent neces-
sary to compel compliance in every re-
spect with it's decree And so it is or
dered.
Given Six Months to Dissolve.
The court held that the 80 days
given by the lower court as the time
within which the Standard Oil Co.
was forced to comply with the law
was inadequate, and announced that
IT would grant six months within
which the Standard Oil Co. must be
dissolved. The concluding portion of
the opinion of the chief justice was as
follows: LAS penalties which are not
authorized by law may not be in
fiicted by judicial authority, it fol-
lows that to meet the situation with
which We are confronted, the appli-
cation of remedies twofold in char
acter becomes essential.
"First-To forbid the danger in the
future of acts like those which we
have found to have been done in the
past, which would be violative of the
statute.
"Second-The exertion of such
measure of relief as will effectually
dissolve the combination found to ex-
list in violation of the statute and thus
neutralize the extension and contin-
ually operating force which the pos
session of the power unlawfully OBJ
tanned has brought, and will continue
to bring about.
To Protect Property.
"In applying remedies for this pur-
pose, however, the fact must not be
overlooked that injury to the public
by the prevention of an undue re-
straint on, or the monopolization of,
trade or commerce is the foundation
upon which the prohibitions of the
statute rest; and moreover that one of
the fundamental purposes of the stat
ute is to protect, not to destroy the
rights of property. The court below
adjudged that the New Jersey corpo-
ration, in so far as it held stock of
the various corporations, combina-
tion in violation of the act and an
attempt to monopolize or a monopo-
lization contrary to the second Sec
tion of the act. 1t commanded the
dissolution of the combination and
therefore in effect directed the trans
fer by the New Jersey corporation
back to the stockholders of the vari-
GUS subsidiary corporations entitled to
the same amount of the stock which
had been turned over to the New Jer-
sey company in exchange for its
