Cleveland. Ohio, April a6.-Conspiracy
on tho part Of the largest railroads in the
country with ore shippers and dock COM
panes in granting rebates is charged in
seventeen indictments handed down by
the federal grand jury late to-day.
The roads indicted are the Lake Shore,
Pennsylvania, Bessemer and Lake Erie,
and Nickel Plate. As result of the in
vestigation which resulted in the indict-
ments. suits will be brought against a
number of subsidiaries Of the United
States Steel Company.

officials indicted on charges of railroad
rate conspiracy. They are Dan r. Hanna
and Robert L. Ireland. of the NJ. A.

plans therefore, there was a main struc-
ture with four great wings. which formed
three large, airy courts, each open on one
side Bids were called for according to
these plans. but II was found that In
every instance they exceeded the appro-
priation for the building. Plans are now
being drawn which call for the -aban-
donment Of the attic and the two CEN
ter wings, leaving the building all one
structure but a three-sided affair, very
much in the form of the Senate once

1t was announced at the department
yesterday that the architects Were CO.
operating with Director Ralph. of the
bureau. in the hope OF reducing the size
of the building sufficiently to permit it

1t was asserted that II Congress insisted
that there should be an attic, as the

possible to construct a building that
would accommodate the workmen at the

propria ation.

ST. Johns Eve,

Curious and quaint beliefs still
prevail in some parts of England
concerning st. Johns eve. Lassies
still place their shoes before retir-
ing for the night at right angles,
forming a L, reciting the lines,
Hoping this night my true love to see,
| place my shoes in the form of a r..
under the idea that their future
husbands will be revealed to them
in dreams. Formerly supper was
placed on the table with the belief
hat the future husband would en-
ter by the open door. There is, too,
a prevalent idea that especially for
tGnate are the children born on ST.
Johns eve, the rhyme running:
Under the stars on the eve OF st. John.
Lucky the babe that those stars shine on.
