B ou nded Funny# This is the result reached yesterday in the governm ent’ s famous suit against the Standard O il company o f Indiana. The suit wherein the defendant col pany at one tim e faced a fine o f $29,- 240,000 at the hands o f Judge Landis on a charge o f having accepted rebates from the Chicago & Alton railroad, came to an end abruptly. Judge A n ­ derson, before whom the case was brought a fte r reversal bv the United States Court o f Appeals, instructed the ju ry to find a verd ict o f not guilty. Judge Anderson’ s decision was not altogether unlooked for, he having pre­ viously announced that the proof i lied upon at the first tria l was incom­ petent and it was w ith something o f an air o f hopelessness that D istrict A ttorn ey Sims and his assistants at­ tem pted to show the adm issibility o f the Illin ois classification to prove the existence o f a legal rate o f 18 cents. This was a vita l point in the governm ent contention. Assistant D istrict A tto r­ ney W ilkerson adm itted that the pros­ ecution could not supply the proof deemed necessary and suggested dis­ missal. John S. M ille r then moved for an instruction v erd ict o f not guilty. This was ordered. A s to whether prosecution on seven other indictments still pending against the company w ill be instituted, Mr. Sim s would not express an opinion, statin g that this rested en tirely w ith the attorney general.

I t is understood that there is an almost unanimous opinion that the roads ought to return to a 3-cent fare as soon as the schedule can be pre­ pared. One large system is known to be in fator o f accepting the suggestion o f the court, and make the rate 2}4 cents fo r the “ stron g” lines and 3 cents for the “ w eak ” lines. The p revailin g sentim ent is against this, however, aa it is regarded as in conflict w ith that part o f the court’ s decision which de­ clares that the railroads ought to earn 6 per cent fo r the stockholders.

G ro c e r W h o Sold Equine Sausages C om es to G rief, T o o . Chicago, March 10.— J. J. Schmidt, a butcher at Chicago Heights, was found g u ilty today in Judge K ersen’ s court o f selling diseased horse flesh which had been made up in sausage. The conviction follow ed an in vestiga­ tion started by butchers in Chicago H eights and H arvey, who were unable to understand why Schmidt could sell his product at a low er price than they could afford. Schm idt’ s sausages w ere said to have gained such a reputation fo r sweetness o f flavor that he was able to sell g re a t quantities. This is believed to have caused the enm ity o f his com­ petitors, w ith the result that they e x ­ amined his product. The butcher was convicted under the state law prohibit­ ing the sale o f diseased cattle. The penalty is a year in ja il, and a fine o f $1,000. Schmidt’s attorneys entered a motion . f o r a new trial. Assistant S tate’s A ttorn ey George Gunther pros­ ecuted the case. Utah is U rged to Action.
