OIL COMBINE IS
FOUND NOT GUILTY
(Continued from First Page.)
Anderson presided was that against John
R. Walsh, former president of the Chi
cago National bank, who was found guilty
of misapplying the funds of the bsnk and
who was sentenced to serve a five years'
term In prison at Leavenworth, Kan.
Walsh's rase is now pending In the court
of appeals.
History of the Case.
Thn prosecution, which today ended In
failure, after having once been tried by
Judge K. M. Iandls, whose decision was
reversed by the court of appeals and the
case remanded to the district court for a
second trial, had Its beginning August 27,
1!"I. on that date ten Indictments were
returned by a federal grand Jury, charging
tlie Standard Oil company of Indiana with
accepting concessions from railways In
shipments of oil from Whiting, Ind.
Demurrers to two of these, Involving shlp
mrnts over the Chicago & Eastern Illinois
railroad and connecting roads to Grand
Junction, Tenn., were sustained and the
Indictments were quashed shortly after they
had been returned. The eight remaining
bills were demurred to, but the demurrera
were overruled.
Two of the eight Indictments Involved
shipments over the Chicago & Alton rail
road from Whiting. Ind., to East St. Louis,
one containing 1,9(8 counts and the other
i:; counts. It wss the 1.903 count Indict
ment on which the oil company prosecu
tion was based. With 146 counts allowed to
stand, the case went to trial first before
Judge Landls, March 4. 1907. The trial con
sumed six weeks, and resulted In a verdict
of guilty April 13, 1907.
Arguments for a new trial were heard In
May and a motion for new trial was denied.
On August 3, 1907, Judge Landls Imposed
his famous J9,24O,0O9 fine.
On appeal the case went to the United
States circuit court of appeals and waa
argued a year ago. The decision ot the
court of appeala reversing Judge Landls
and remanding. the case for a new trial was
given July-22, 1908. Attempts of the gov
ernment to obtain a rehearing of the oaae
before the appellate court, as wen a their
endeavors to secure a review of It before
the United States supreme court, failed.
The second trial was begun before Judge
Anderson February 23.
rae May Be Appealed.
WASHINGTON, March 1.-The under
standing here Is that an appeal; will lie
from Judge Anderson's court to the circuit
court of appeals. Also an appeal would
lie from the circuit court of appeals to the
supreme court of the United States In the
event that the decision In the former trib
unal should be against the company.
In fact that Is a best reason for stating
that the whole Issue will come before the
supreme court of the United State very
soon through nn unexpected and novel move
by the Department of Justice.
President Taft declined to make any com
ment. TARIFF BILL JNBY TUESDAY
Will Be the First Measare Tatrodaced
After Ora-anlsatloa of Spe
cial ItHloS.
WASIIINOTON. March 10-The new
tariff bill will probably see the light for
the first time next Tuesday. The desire
of the members of the house committee on
ways and means Is to have It introduced
In the house on the first day practicable.
The probabilities are that there will be
so much to do in the way of organising
the house ami getting ready for business
that It will be Impossible to have It pre
sented on the first day.
There is much detail In getting a new
congress started off. Possibly the one
ceremony which attract the most attention
Is the election of the epeaker but, when,
as Is the case at present, there Is only one
candidate, that requiree comparatively
little time. In addition It la necessary to
elect all the other officers of the house,
to administer oaths to all the members, to
decide upon the parliamentary rules, and
more tedious and time coneumlng than any
of these proceedings. It is necessary to
allot seata to all the members. The allot
ment ot seata la accomplished by lottery
process and generally consumes two or
three hours.
This year a fight on the adoption of the
old rules la threatened nt there la no
telling now how long a period It will be
necessary to devote to this proceeding.

CO-OPERATION M FARMERS
Merrick County Men Organize Stock
Buyer' Association.
LUTE OF ELEVATORS PLANNED
Lsrte 'aialifr of Farmers Attend
Meet I ns; at Central City to
Dlaeaas the Qaea-
tlon.
CENTRAL CITY, Neb.. March 10,-lSpc-clal.)
The co-operative Idea ot marketing
their products seems to have gotten thor
ough hold upon the farmers of Merrick
county if the present activity which in
volves many of their prominent and
wealthy members from all over the county
Is any criterion.
A meeting was held in the city hall here
February 20 and the Merrick County Stock
Buyers' association was formed, with the
following officers: Shipper, Addison Parker;
secretsry, Osenr Booth; executive commit
tee, David Burke, rtalph Severance snd
Iw Parker. The purpose of the first
meeting was merely looking to the advan
tageous marketing of live stock under a co
operative plan, but ether subjects were
discussed, and before the meeting was over
It was evident that many of those present
were thoroughly imbued with the Idea that
a line of farmers' co-operative elevator
in the coupty would b a profitable proposi
tion for the farmers and were willing to
tack their faith In that proposition to the
extent of subscribing liberally for stock.
The proposition as at present favored by
those who are taking a lead In the matter
Is to have a chain of five or six elevators
in the county with a large central or
cleaning elevator at Central City, to be
owr.ed by the farmers and operated solely
in their Interest. Another meeting of the
association is called to meet at the city
hall In this city Saturday and It Is ex
pected that a large number will be In at
tendance from all parts of the county and
tho rlevator project will be taken up In
dead earnest.
LICBTVSE MOLE ISSt E AT HASTINGS
Party l.lnea
Entirely Eliminate
la
City Election.
HASTINGS, Neb.. March 10.-(Special.)-The
usual party lines have been entirely
eliminated from the campaign for the
spring municipal election, which will take
place on, April t. leaving the question of
absolute prohibition the sole Issue between
tho contending sides.
Last night a high license ticket was
placed In the field by a maaa convention
In the court house. Simultaneously the pro
hibition forces, meeting under a call for
the Tlvlc federation, met In the Baptist
church and decided to nominate a prohibi
tion ticket at a convention to be held next
Monday night.
The high llcenae convention was at
tended by 00 or more voters, or about one
third of the entire voting population of
Hastings. Mayor C. J. Miles, Treasurer A.
II. Cramer and City Clerk Bratton were
renominated for fourth terms In their re
spective offices. They are republicans and
for their second and third terms were re
nominated practically without opposition.
They were the only one considered for
the places In the mass convention last
night. Joseph Meyers waa nominated for
police Juuge and the following were choaen
as the candidates for onuncllmen: First
ward, Walter S. Dieken; Second ward, A.
J. Frants; Third ward, C. L. Alexander;
Fourth ward, A. H. Farrens.
Licenses In Hastings are granted by the
city council. Thla body now la evenly di
vided on the question of prohibition, but
the mayor, who hat the deciding vote In
case of a tie, stands with the hlgM license
side. Of the four councllmen whose terms
expire two are on the prohibition side and
two on the high license side. Tf Miles Is
re-elected and the complexion of the coun
cil on the prohibition question remains un
changed the high license aide wilt hare a
majority vote. If the prohibitionists gain
one memberof the council more than they
now have the Issuance of licenses will be
defeated.
All nominees will go on the ticket by
petition, those of last night' convention on
the high license ticket and those to be
nominated next Monday, unless present
plan are changed, on an antl-valoon ticket.
The campaign of last spring In this county
