ANCES GAGE THROWN OUT OF COURT IN STANDARD OIL CASE
Chicago March 10 Judge Anderson instructed the jury in the Standard Oil case to find the company not guilty. The decision voids most indictments, leaving two tied to shipments of 1 915 car loads from Whiting Indiana to Evansville Joe. Vito Dalton Junction over the Chicago and East Western Hingis railroad. The historic litigation began August 27 1906 with ten indictments and reached a $29 24 million fine by Judge Landis before appeals trimmed the case. The new trial was urged by the government but Judge Anderson declared the 18 cent rate relied on could not be proven. The jury returned one not guilty verdict. An appeal bond of 100000 will back a writ of error to the US Supreme Court.
