This is the result reached yesterday in the government's famous suit against the Standard Oil company of Indiana. The suit wherein the defendant com pany at one time faced a fine of $29,- 240.000 at the hands of Judge Landis on a charge of having accepted rebates from the Chicago & Alton railroad, came to an end abruptly. Judge An derson, before whom the case was brought after reversal by the United States Court of Appeals, instructed the jury to find a verdict of not guilty. Judge Anderson s decision was not altogether unlooked for, he having pre viously announced that the proof re lied upon at the first trial was incom petent and it was with something of an air of hopelessness that District Attorney Sims and his assistants at tempted to show the admissibility of the Illinois classification to prove the existence of a legal rate of 18 cents, Thib was a vital point in the government contention. Assistant District Attor ney Wilkerson admitted that the pros ecution could not supply the proof deemed necessary and suggested, dis missal. John S. Miller then moved for an instruction verdict of not guilty. This was ordered. As to whether prosecution on seven other indictments still pending against the company will be instituted, Mr, Sims would not express an opinion, stating that this rested entirely with the attorney general. .

With three varieties of Siberian alfalfa, a clover which grows north of the Arctic circle, and some 300 other varieties of seeds suitable to the semi-arid region of the West, Professor Niels Ebbsen Hansen, chief plant explorer of the United States Department of Akricul ture, has returned from a nine months' trip in lands rarely visited by an Amer ican. It was Professor Hansen's third trip to Northern Siberia and his fourth to the highest latitudes of European Rus sia. He intends to combine the best elements of alfalfa of four continents and of all climates in a plant which will withstand the coldest weather and which will, it is claimed, make this country the greatest producer of beef and mutton in the world. Grocer Who Sold Equine Sausages Comes to Grief, Too. Chicago, March 10. J. J. Schmidt, a butcher at Ubicaso Heights, was found guilty today in Judge Kersen's court of selling diseased horse flesh which had been made up in sausage. The conviction followed an investiga tion started by butchers in Chicago Heights and Harvey, who were unable to understand why Schmidt could sell his product at a lower price than they could afford. Schmidt's sausages were said to have gained such a reputation for sweetness of flavor that he was able to sell great quantities. This is believed to have caused the enmity of his com petitors, with the result that they ex amined his product. The butcher was convicted under the state law prohibit ing the sale of diseased cattle. The penalty is a year in jail, and a fine of 11,000. Schmidt s attorneys entered a motion for a new trial.
