over which the Attorney-General of the
United States presided were a unit In ex
pressing the opinion that the reforms In
rebate matters brought about by the
Roosevelt administration would represent
so much loss of time unless the higher
court can be convinced that It la in error
In the construction of the law.
A synopsis of the Government's petition
xouows:
"The Indictment In the case was for a
violation of the Elklns Act of February
19, K-'3. making it a crime to accept a
concession whereby any property Is trans
ported In Interstate commerce at less than
the puousned ana niea raie.
It was proved at the trial that the
Chicago & Alton Railway Company trans
ported to East 9t. Louis, 111., and St.
Louis, Mo., 14&2 carloads of oil.
Proven Facts Admitted.
"In all the dealings between the ship
tier and carrier each carload was treated
as a distinct transaction and bandied
as a distinct piece of business.
"The published and filed rates on this
business were 18 cents per 100 pounds to
East fft. Louis and 1!H cents to St. Louis.
The Standard Oil Company actually set
tled on the basis of 6 cents to East St.
Louis and 7H cents to St. Louis.
"These facts were admitted.
"The Standard Oil Company Interposed
.the -claim In defense that the Elklns
Act was unconstitutional; that the tariffs
had not been posted In two public places
at the stations, and interposed many
technical defenses.
"On but a single point Involved In the
trial up to the return of the verdict of
guilty are the ruling of the trial Judge
criticised by the Court of Appeals. In
all other particulars his rulings are sus
tained. "The point on which the Trial Judge
Is reversed by the Court of Appeals re?
lates to his rulings on evidence and his
charge to the Jury with reference to Ig
norance on the part of the Standard Oil
Company of the lawful rate as a defense.
Trial Judge Mis-stated.
"The Court of Appeals in Its opinion
has not correctly stated how the Judge
ruled on this subject.
"It Is said in the opinion that he refused
to admit evidence to the effect that the
Standard OH Company did not know what
the lawful rate was. The fact is, and
the record so shows, that all evidence
tending to show Ignorance on the part of
the Standard Oil Company was admit
ted for the consideration of the Jury.
"This evidence was largely that of the
traffic manager of the Standard Oil Com
pany, Bogardus, who swore to a con
versation with Holland, the rate clerk
of the Alton, In which he said Hollands
told him that the rate had been filed.
The Government met this testimony by
a great array of circumstances which
tended to disprove It and the Jury found
In favor of the Government
"The Trial Judge ruled that ignorance
on the part of a shipper of what the law
ful rate was could be interposed as a de
fense, but that It would not constitute a
defense if it appeared that the Ignorance
was the result of neglect on the part of
the shipper or of willful failure on the
part of the shipper to resort to the
sources of Information which were avail
able. "The Government contended this is the
correct construction of the statute on this
subject.
The Court of Appeals lays down the
rule that it Is necessary for the Govern
ment to show beyond a reasonable doubt,
aa a part of Its case that the shipper
actually knew what the lawful published
and filed rate was.
Elklns Act Phantom Statute.
"The Government contends that this is
an Impossible rule; that it is contrary to
the purpose of the Elkins Act; that it Is
contrary to the general rule applicable in
criminal cases; that put Into effect it
would make of the Interstate Commerce
Act "a mere will-o'-the-wisp of legisla
tion, a phantom statute, destitute of
strength or substance.'
"The Government contends In the peti
tion that the Court of Appeals has mis
stated not only the record as to what evi
dence was admitted, but has also misstat
ed the construction which the trial Judge
placed upon the statute, and that for this
reason there should be a thorough rear
gument upon the only proposition as to
which the ruling of the trial Judge up to
the verdict of guilty, is reversed.
"The Government contends that an ex
amination of the record will show that
the court did not rule out the testimony
tending to show want of knowledge, but
that on the contrary all proper evidence
tending to show that the defendant was
Ignorant of the facts with reference to the
legal rate was admitted for the consider
ation of the Jury, and that there was am
ple evidence to show that the defendant
did know what the legal rate was.
Would Nullify Interstate Act.
"In other words, the Government con
tends vigorously and with references to
the record that the reversal of the case,
so far as the ruling of the trial Judge
with reference to ignorance on the part
ot th shipper as a defense Is concerned.
Is based upon a misstatement by the
court of the record in the case as to the
admlsaiatn of the evidence and to a misun
derstanding by the court of what the trial
Judge ruled with reference" to the admis
sion of evidence and how he really
charged the Jury.
"The Government strenuously contends
that the effect of the construction of the
statute announced by. the Court of Ap
peals Is to nullify the Interstate Com
merce Act so far as shippers are con
cerned; to make its enforcement impossi
ble, and to plunge the country again into
the deplorable condition of railroad dis
criminations and favoritism which existed
prior to Its passage.
"The Government contends that the
Court of Appeals has no right to place
this construction upon the statute In the
face of the fact that the very question
Involved in this case has been expressly
left open-'by the Supreme Court in the
Armour Packing Company case, recently
decided by that court. in precise qutw
tlon involved in this case was stated by
.i cv. ...,.,, four In that rn HP It was
not decided by the Supreme Court, how
ever, because It was not involved, oui
was left open.
Circuit Court Assuming; Power.
"The Government Insists that before
laying down this harsh rule and practi
cally nullifying the law the Court of Ap
peals should certify In accordance with
the statute this question to the Supreme
Court for Its decision; that no court short
of the Supreme Court should undertake
practically to wipe the Interstate com
merce act from the statutes.
"The petition states 'before the Gov
ernment is required to try this case under
the rigid rule of construction laid down
by this court. Is it not manifestly fair
and right in the interest not only of Jus
tlce in this case, but in the Interest of a
final and definite construction of this
Important statute, that Judgment be
taken of the highest tribunal of the Na-
tionr
"The Government takes Issue with the
Court ot Appeals that Judge Landls'
proceeding In this case 'amounted to a
strange doctrine In. Anglo-Saxon Juris
prudence,' and says that the proceedings
of Judge Landls are In accordance with
the rule of procedure pointed out by Mr.
Bishop In his work on criminal law as
one of the elementary principles of that
Jurisprudence recognized from the earli
est days.
Heavy Fine Xot Unjust.
"The Government takes Issue with the
Circuit Court of Appeals as to its prop
osition that a defendant cannot be fined
more than the value of the property
which he possesses and states that this
rule Is an Innovation in criminal law, and
If applied would destroy the enforcement
of most statutes.
- 'The Government claims that the facts
before the Court of Appeals Justify the
imposition of the penalty inflicted by the
trial Judge.
"It appears from the record 1n the
Circuit Court of Appeals that the net
profit of the business of the Standard
OH Company . of Indiana, the corpora
tion that Judge Landls fined, for the
years during which the violations of the
law for which it- was convicted were
committed and Including the year in
which it was Indicted, amounted to $33,-
5S3.208.80.
The punishment therefore Is no more
severe than that Is Inflicted upon a let
ter-carrier who steals a letter and Is
sent to the penitentiary for three years,
thereby depriving him of his earning ca
pacity for that time. It Is not nearly so
severe as the minimum penalty of five
years In the penitentiary Imposed upon a
banker who misapplies the funds of his
bank.
The Government claims that on ac
count of the size of the fine alone, there
Is no necessity for a retrial of the case;
that the Circuit Court of Appeals may.
Itself, name the fine which should be im
posed and calls upon the court to do so in
case it adheres to the view that Judge
Landls abused his discretion in impos
ing so large a fine."

LANE GAINS POINT
Council Will Vote Men for
North End Crusade.
YET CONSIDERS IT USELESS
Members Declare Campaign Against
Immoral Houses Impracticable,
but Will Xot Prevent Mayor
From Trying Experiment. -
Mivor Ttne will have no difficulty In
securing whatever extra policemen he
may need to carry out his contempiaieu
action to close up all of the disorderly
houses In Portland and banish the wo
men Inmates, unless there Is a decided
change of views among members of the
City Council between now and next
Wednesday. Nearly all of the Council
men favor granting the Mayor additional
help, for which he has called. It is al
most certain his request will De granted.
One feature of the case Btands out in
bold relief not one member of the Coun
cil favors the action . Mayor Lane Is
about to take. So far as their statements
aro. each Councilman is opposed to the at
tempt to drive out the disorderly women
and keep them out of the city. And it Is
also a fact that 'not one preson In Port
land has written or said verbally to Mayor
Lane that they favor the experiment. It
looks as though the executive will stand
alone if he orders the wholesale closing
and banishment order, which ho avers ne
will do If the extra policemen necessary
are given him.
That the Mayor Is undertaking a task
hi atuDendous that it will never be accom
plished, seems to be -the almost universal
belief. But he realises that sentiment is
omosed to the move. He has studied the
situation for several months, and; his an
nouncement at this time la his conclu
slon.
"It is against the law for disorderly
houses to run, and as a call has been
made upon me to act I will enforce tne
law as I find it. If the Council supports
me by granting enougn officers," said the
Mayor yesterday.
Councilman Vaughn, a staunch sup
porter of the Mayor, arrived home from
Seattle yesterday and said:
"I will vote to give the Mayor more
policemen, of course, but I do not believe
he can eradicate the eva aimea at.
"I do not favor giving the Mayor any
more policemen," said Councilman Drls-
coll. "He simple cannot drive those wo
men out of town and keep them out. and
there's no use trying It. Let them stay
where they are."
Councilman Wallace said: "What good
will It do to give the Mayor more police
officers? Does he think he can control
such a situation by the police power? Of
course, if the Mayor calls for more of
ficers I suppose we will grant them, but
his efforts will be in vain, u has Deen
tried before, with no avail."
Councilmen Rushlight, Cellars and Dun
nlng are still out of the city and their
views are not obtainable.
MASHERS FINED $10 EACH

It isn't safe these days for the

suburbs, as Guy Ferguson and Gordon

Sellwood and Delay streets, accosting
two girls who were returning home
from a party.
"Hello girls, where are you going?'
theyi said and receiving no response,
persisted In their attention.
"Ah, I say girls, don't be in a nurry,-
protested Ferguson.
"We'll call the ponce II you arent
careful." said one of the girls.
"Police why. say, I eat policemen
raw, one ot tne impuaeni Lomarios
persisted.
At which moment, strangely enougn.
Patrolman Burke rounded the next
