FEDERAL COURT
GRANTS INJUNCTION
Billing In Portland Gateway
Case Nullified.
Chioaga, Jan* 9.—The decision of
the interstate commerce commission
in the Portland gateway case, in
which che Northern Pacific was or
dered to join with the Union Pacific
and the Chicago and Northwestern
roads in establishing a through route
for passengers, has been nullified by
an injunction Issued in the federal
circuit court at St. Louis, according to
telegram received at the Chicago
offices of the Harriman llnc3.
The commission held that the north
ern route, via the Northern Pacific,
in connection with the Burlington or
Great Northern, although as good as
the southern route, via the Harrl
man lines, was not a sufficient "rea
sonable and satisfactory" through
route bocau9e many passengers might
prefer the southern route. This was
the feature of the decision objected to
by the Northern Pacific, which con
tended that as long as it offered tho?
public as good service as could be af
forded by another line it had the
right to control its rates so as ta keep
the long haul for itself.
The Injunction is regarded as of the
greatest importance, as the Portland
case was expected to serve as
precedent which would lead to a num
ber of similar proceedings elsawhere

Cincinnati, June 9.—Lewis W, Foa
ter, John C. Gorman, Walter Camp
bell, A. C. Baldwin, Edwin Hell and
i. M. Scott were each sentenced to
six months in jail and a fine of $200.
They were convicted of using the
United States malls to further
schemes to defraud in conducting a
buoketshop.
Judge Thompson overruled a motion
for a new trial. Attorney Outcalt
moved for a stay of execution in or
der to appeal the case to the United
States circuit court of appeals. Mean
time each of the defendants will be
at liberty under $5,000 bond.
The defendants operated the buck
etshop known as the Odell Brokerage
company. William J. Odell came to
Cincinnati from Savannah, Ga., with
110,000 cash and opened a bucketshop.
He soon had branches in all the prin
cipal cities and towns in the West
and South and his business was the
largest of the kind in the country.
When Odell died a few years ago he
left an estate valued, it is said, at
12,000,000.
All the six defendants were clerks
and telegraph operators for Odell.
They continued tho business.
Judge Thompson, in passing sen
tence, said the government had abso
lutely proved that the defendants had
not only appropriated the $300,000
cash assets of the Odell company, but
had deliberately conspired, under the
guise of a bucketshop. to mlsappro

fendants reorganized the Odell Broker
age company with a capital of $250,

and the institution was always in
