found it a trust existing in violation Of
the Sherman ANTITRUST act, the Stand
ard Oh company, of New Jersey, paid
to it's stockholders dividends a~ggregat-
ing 40 per cent in each year. Fol the

SHOULD LET CALVES
BECOME BEEFSTEAKS

Duluth, Mimi, July S.-'"The cause
that has been raising and continues to
raise the price of beef and make it
scarce is the slaughtering of young
calves" said Marcus Ballanger. gov
eminent live stoke inspector here to-
day. There are 5000, 900 young calves
being killed every spring that average
about 10 pounds a piece. If all were
allowed to grow another year they
would average 500 pounds each.
But uppos we had a law like Ar
gentina, which prohibits the killing of
female bovine until they are 7 years
old. Porterhouse steak would cease to
be a luxury. Beef is high because it is
scarce"

JUDGE in
CASE UNDER GUARD
Relatives Of Accused Beat
Breasts and Offer Gifts To
Patron Saints.

Viteroo, italy, July S.-Ihe ver-
dict in the Camorra trial was
handed down today. Nine of the
accused were unanimously declared
guilty of the murder of Gennaro
Cuoccoio and his wife. The re-
mainder of the band were found
guilty of belonging to a criminal
association.
Vitero, Italy, July ct is believed
that the Camnora trial, which has
been going on for two years, will come
to a close today, and great excitement
prevails over the town. Reinforce
ments of troops and mounted police
have arrived to assist in maintaining
order. A body of 800 police has been
especially entrusted with the surveil-
anceo of the our and it's precincts.
A number of relations of the ac-
cused, comprising wives, sisters and
mothers, arrived here this morning,
bringing a votive offering of wax can
dies to the madonna, while others
brought gifts for st. Rosa, the patron
of Viterbo. Many of them took up their
positions early today in the church
facing the our house, where they re-
manned kneeling, beating their breasts
and imploring mercy for their beloved
ones.
The presiding Judge resumed his
summing up of the evidence with fresh
vigor, taking the greatest pains to ex-
plain to the jury the exact position Of
each of the accused and the signif-
canoe of each of the 144 questions
which the jury must answer.
All the accused maintain an abso-
lutely calm demeanor. Only Giro vi
tozzi, the priest known as the guar
dian angel Of the cammora," displays
any kind of shame at being forced to
enter the iron cage with the other pris-
oners. He mutters prayers all the
time, saying: II am in the hands Of
God and the Jurors, whom 1 pray the
Almighty to illuminate"
