EECOED-BREAKINO TENALTY EXPECTED ' Standard Oil Will Hare to Pay for Illegal Rebating and Ruthless Violation of Interstate Commerce Law. (JootmI Bpaelal fcrrlee.) Chicago, 111 . Aug. 2. Bsfors another day perhaps the largest fine recorded In Judicial history may be assessed by Fed ' era! Judge K. M. Landls against the Standard Oil company, In the case In which the company waa recently con victed of oainr Illegal railroad rate. Judge Landle has fixed upon tomorrow aa the day upon which ha will paaa sen tence on the company. Judge Must Detsrmlne. When, under the Indictment secured ' a year ago, the Standard OU company of Indiana was found guilty of violating : the antr-rebate law. the fixing of the fine for -that offense devolved on Judge landla, and aa he bad a free hand In assessing any fine between $1,000 and $20,000 on each f the M2 counts In the indictment, he was confronted with a rather difficult proposition. Hs did not know how much punishment the . . company oould stand, and this la the reason why he summoned John D, Rockefeller and others prominently con- ' nected with Btandara un arrairs, so as ' to learn some of the financial secrets ; of the company which Its counsel were cither unable or unwilling to tell. The Judge found that Mr. Rockefeller knew ' very little about the affairs of the com ; jany of which he is president, and that t mue ne was not sure oi. Me aivuigea, I' however, that the Capital of the Stan ;dard Oil company of New Jersey, is ("about $100,000,000.' and that It annual i dividends now are "about 40 pv.cent" An Appeal Certain. No hint has leaked out as to the dos Bible extent of the fine to be Imposed . tomorrow. The maximum fine for the ' number of counts in the indictment is ; something over $29,000,000, and there are today predictions from persons con- ; xtectea with the prosecution that thi maximum ' fine will be assessed. The only excuse which a Judge may feel , called on to offer in Imposing less than .the maximum in criminal caaes such as " this. Is a bona fide reason for clemency. , On the other hand, such a huge fine as 129,000,000, If Imposed on a company . with a capital of only $100,000,000. .- would look disproportionate, and would sTive the company ground on which to ' make an appeal. V That In any event there will be an v appeal from' the fine assessed by Judge f Auuus is certain, ana a nnai decision - may be delayed for several years. In i the meantime many other Indictments against the company for violations of 1 the uiuns uw will be pushed to trial. ; Borne of these. In the northern district of Illinois, are almost as voluminous as the one on which the recent trial was baaed. Practically the same kind of ,. evidence figures In all the cases. f IN BUSINESS NOW. If yonr name were Bserssesenska, would you marry soms on and change It? And then If ou, married a man named Prsyoylske, would you bs any better off in the way of a namsf At the courthouse yesterday there appeared two men who sought a mar riage license. One of of ths women dep uties, Misa Frances Btradelman, had frequently i requested Deputy "Cupid" Rose, who presides at ths marriage li cense counter, to allow her to Issue a marriage license, lust for the novelty of saying she had dons so. when th men appeared In answer to I "Cupid's" question, tins groom said his name was Prsybylske, Rose thought of Miss Stradelman s request and to have a Joke on her called her over to lasue j the license to this man. Miss Htradelman bravely WTOte Miss Prsybylske, residence 2(1 DeLay street, aged 21. on the book, and asked for the name of the bride. Prsybylske said hs wished to marry Miss Stella Sserssesen ska. Miss Btradelman waa game, and not only succeeded in writing the name in the affidavit book, but wrote both the names on a marrlase license, and af fixed the county clerk's seal to it, sign ing the dooument as Mr. Fields' deputy.
