ESTABLISHED IN 18 FINE SET ASIDE THE UNITED STATES CIRCUIT COURT OF APPEALS, Stands by the Standard Oil Company and Wipes Out the Fine of Nearly Thirty Million Dollars. At Chicago on Wednesday the United States circuit court of appeals reversed the . famous decision of Judge Kenesaw M. Landis, in which he fined the Standard Oil company, of Indiana, $29,240,000. The case Sg remanded to the lower court for ?a new trial. The decision of the court, compos ed of Judges Grosscup, Baker and Seaman, was a scathing arraignment -of Judge Landis, in which it was -asked if the court believed himself above the law in imposing a fine that would fall on. the shoulders of the mother corporation?the Standard 'Oil company of New Jersey when the Indiana corporation alone under the law could be held responsible. It seemed to be the irony of fate that Judge Grosscup . should have "written the / decision of the upper court. He not only wrote the deci sion, but read the decision to the waiting throng in the court room. Judge Grosscup and Judge Landis have not been the best of friends tor sometime, as a result of certain statements made months ago by Judge Landis concerning federal judges who talk publicly on matters which might come under their judi cal attention. When the three judges took their seats on the bench, the court room was crowded to the doors. John S. Miller, Rockefellers famous $50, ?000 lawyer, was present to represent the oil trust. He was acoinpanied hy Attorney Mortiz Rosenthal and several other Standard Oil lawyers. District Attorney Edwin Sims appear ed for the government. All that occurred in court was the 'reading of the last paragraph of the decision. Judge Grosscup read it as follows: "The judgment of the district ?co?rt is reversed and the case re manded with instructions to grant a new trial, and proceed here accor dance with this opinion." That was all and court adjourned immediately. District Attorney Sims held a conference wth Mr. James .Wilkerson and decided! to rush the case to another trial in the f?ll. KILLED BY PORPOISE?

An appeal by Mr. Bryan to the Democratic newspapers of the country to begin the collection of funds for the campaign was one of the impor tant happenings of the day. The statement follows: "I wish every Democratic paper would begin the collection of a fund from its subscribers. There are very few Democrats who could not afford to make contribution and the people will never be able to control the government until they take on them selves the burden of supplying cam paign funds. As long as a few men furnish the money to finance a cam paign the men wiil exert an undue influence upon the government. "It seems that we have reached the . end. of corporate contributions and this is a step in advance but the individuals who control these" favor seeking corporations may still domi nate politics by furnishing the sinews of war. The Democratic party has struck a blow at this system by limit ing contributions to $10.000and pro viding for publicity before the elec tion. The Republican party has so far refused to join with us on this proposition but public sentiment may yet compel it to do so. ?I have no. doubt that the Democratic party will receive contributions from more in dividuals than ever contributed to any campaign and there is no reason why the entire sum necessary should not be supplied by contributions from the masses. If every Democratic pa per will take the matter up and lend a helping hand we will soon have money enough in the treasury to provide for legitimate campaign work and that is all we want." A CALL TO WORKINGMEX. President Gonipers Urges Union Members to Vote for Bryan. A dispatch from Washington in advance of publication In the Fed erationist, the newspaper organ of the trade unionists, President Gom pers, of the American Federation of Labor, Wednesday, night liberated the proof sheets of a democratic edi torial that will appear in the August issue of the paper. There are three double columns of it, much of the type being used in quoting the written demands that Mr. Gompers and his associates made on the Republican and Democratic conventions for insertion in _ their party platforms. Stress is laid -on the anti-injunction planks of both conventions, which are quoted, ana lytical comments by Gompers being added. While disavowing an intention "to deliver the labor vote," Gompers ex presses the opinion that the worker will have to answer to his v fellow workers, as well as his conscience, if his action Is contrary to the political course that is pointed out for him. An argument is submitted . with the intention of proving that the Re publican party is the enemy and the Democratic party the friend of la bor and it concludes with a call to the workers to defeat their enemies for all offices, presidential, legisla tive and judical.

Charles Bryan Says the Ticket Will Sweep Every State West of the Missouri. Mr. Wm. E. Gonzales, editor of The State, returned Monday from Denver, Col., where he attended the Democratic national convention and witnessed the triumphant spectacle of the nomination of William J. Bry an by a reunited and revivified par ty. It seems that the West is afire with Democratic enthusiasm and that the South is the only section of the country which is not thoroughly awake to the probability of Demo cratic success. Mr.. Gonzales talked with a great many person's whom he met m dif ferent cities in the West through which.he passed on his way to Den ver and return, and he declared that it was indeed gratifying to hear a number who had always been Repub licans say that they would vote for Bryan this year. "The West," he said, "appears to be realizing for the first time that it has never got anything from the Republican party and, so long as New York and Ohio are allowed to fur nish the president, that the West never will be benefited. "I asked a number of representa tive men why they did not make some effort to get into closer rela tions with the South, both politically and commercially. The idea every where met with favor. "The Bryan managers at Denver displayed great good judgment and tact in handling a number of delicate points, and as a result the unity, at the close of the convention, of many men that previously had appeared irreconcilable was remarkable. The fact that Mr. Bryan while opposed to Johnson for vice president was heartily in .favor of Judge Gray and the knowledge of that softened a good many of the Easterners. Again when they came to examine the plat form, it was found that whilst itl stood for something positive it was radical only to the extent that it pro mised definite reforms, and both platform and speeches gave all the assurance that capital needs' that every honest dollar will have the ful lest protection from a Democratic president and a Democratic admin istration." Mr. Gonzales' attention was called to the fact that there has been some speculation as to why it. had been decided to limit the matter of mak ing public the means of contributors so that those giving less than $100 would not be named. "The reason is that many subordi nates in manufacturers and minor railroad officials and others not in dependent wish to contribute small amounts toward the Democratic cam paign fund but would be afraid to do so if such contributions should come to the knowledge of their em ployers. "Mr. Bryan seemed to be very much pleased with the suggestion that friendly newspapers invite cou trbutions, and? I hope that Somh Carolina will aid to this extent in the great fight for Democracy. "To illustrate the spirit of the Democrats and the new Democrats of the West, I will tell of one big bonded, collarless Nebraska farmer who told me that he had contracted with the publisher of a newspaper in an adjoining town to print a pa per for him during the campaign, the issue to he distributed among his Republican neighbors. 'I've got a little money,' he said, 'and 1 might as well spend some of it that way.' He was then wearing a but ton in the label ? l bis coat on which was printed 'Bryan Volun teers.' For that button he paid $10 as a contribution to the Nebraska Democratic campaign fund." Mr. Gonzales declared that it is known that Judge Gray was prevent ed L'OJr accepting the nomination for vice president because of his de pendence upon the permanent salary which he now has, for If elected,; upon going out of office he would, be too old to reestablish a law prac tice. Mr. Gonzales saw a great deal of Mr. Kern, who looks like a "Confed erate brigadier, is exceedingly pleas ant personally and is an effective campaigner," said Mr. Gonzales. West of which such encouraging re What are the chances in the ports have been sent out?" was an other question which was asked Mr. Gonzales. "Charles Bryan, or 'Brother Char ley' as he is more familiarly kno~n, claims everything West of the Mis souri," was his reply. "The fact is that Ohio is going to present the most strenuous battle ground and is an easy possibility for the Democrats. Missouri, Indiana, Nebraska and Colorado seem already safe in the Bryan column, while California, Washington, Wyoming, Utah and several others in that group pre sent a hopeful field. Of course I put Oklahoma and Kentucky with the solid South." ? ,v.. ' "What about New York?" w/is an jother question which prompted itself. "The Tammany people. 900 strong," be replied, "went away from Denver seemingly absolutely satisfi ed and the leaders gave every (assur ance that they would not only sup port Bryan and Kern but would work to win. With Tammany working for the ticket, with large accessions of the labor vote and with the legiti mate business interests of New York assured that/Bryan is very 'safe and sane'?from the viewpoint of legiti mate business ?New York becomes debatable ground. I do not believe that the Hearst party can take as many votes from the Democrats as from the Republicans. "Mr. Bryan's campaign will have at least one novel feature," said Mr. Gonzales. "That feature will be the resort to the pen rather than the tongue; to the press rather than the platform. "When I appealed to Mr. Bryan to make as vigorous a canvass as in 1896," said Mr. Gonzales,. "he re minded me that he was now 12 years older, 'and besides,' said Mr. Bryan, i believe I can be more effective in writing arguments for Democracy that newspapers can use If they will, over my signature.' "When I saw him last week It was Mr. Bryan's intention to deliver two, perhaps three, speeches in New York State, one of them In New York city, and six or eight speeches in the States of Illinois, Ohio and Indiana. He proposes to discuss fully some one Democratic principle in each of these addresses. The remainder of the campaign Mr. Bryan expects to stay at home and prepare letters or articles in the nature of signed edi torials for such newspapers as will use them. He will discuss the issues with any Democratic speakers that wish to consult him. "The West is giving* Mr. Bryan much encouragement and he is very hopeful?markedly more buoyant than before the convention." Mr. Gonzales twice visited Mr. Bry an at Fairview, the nominee's Ne braska home. After the adjournment of the convention Mr. Gonzales visit ed numerous places of famed scen ery in Colorado, crossing "the Divide" where the railroad, after going through :;.'! tunnels in 75 miles, crosses the mountain range at an ,elevation of 11,600 feet, where there is perpetual snow hanked on each side of the track. On the 12th of July he was in a snow-storm on the summit of Pike's | Peak while simultaneously there was a thunderstorm in the valley 000 feet below. Young Man Drowned.

WOMAN; LURED TO DEATH FOR SAKE OP FORTUNE. Induced to Come to This Country by Her Nephew, Who Robbed and Shot Her. A crime so cruelly crafty as to be almost unbelievable Is revealed in the case of Mrs. Ottillie Eberhard, a Viennese widow, whose body was found on the New York, Susquehan na and Western railroad track, in a lonely section near Hackensack, N. J., recently. The police of every Eastern city are searching for August Eberhard, the victim's nephew, who for months importuned her come here with a fortune of $2.600 and her twenty year-old daughter, whom August pro mised to marry. The girl refused to believe that Airgust had anything to do with it. His parents live on a farm near Dutchess Junction, New York. The victim, with her daughter, ar rived at New York last Thursday. Eberhard is employed in a grocery store in St. Nicholas avenue. 1 He settled them at a hotel here and con verted the money into American notes. He took them to the country on the pretext of heat. At. Rochelle park at his suggestion the trio strolled in the fields. Eber hard claimed he had lost the way. A thunderstorm broke. The woman stumbled on the track, exclaiming she had been struck by lightning. Miss Eberhard says there were three flashes from behind a car on a sid ing. As her mother fell the girl felt a bullet graze her own neck, cutting a gold chain. Eberhard urged her to run and as she did so she was struck by two bullets. A nearby cottage cared for the girl till Sunday. The murderer must have shot the widow as she lay prostrate. "REV." WH1TAKER CONVICTED. Found Guilty of Using Mails for Fradulent Purposes.

KILLING AT WILLIAMSTON. Drunken Livery Staule Keeper Shoots Negm to Death. A dispatch from Williamston. Tuesday says Will Suber, colored, is dead, and Deveau French, white, is in jail charged with murder, a re sult of French's drunkenness. French shot Suber at the former's livery stables Saturday, apparently without provocation, aed the negro died Sunday afternoon^ From the information that can be gathered at this time, it seems that the negro, who worked for Simpson & -Martin, nearby liverymen, was passing French's stables, when French, who was drunk, called him across the street to where he (French) was. In a very brief moment French shot three times, and the negro grappled him and took his pistol. But one bullet had entered the negro's ab domen, mortally wounding him. French belongs to a prominent Anderson family. He is married and has two children. The negro. Suber, has always horm an excellent reput? 'on and no i aus.- is known for the tragedy. OUT FOR BRYAN. Soys the Railroads Do Not Care Who Is Elected. A dispatch from Hot Springs, Va., says: Melville E. Ingalls, formerly president of the Big Four and Chesa peake and Ohio railroads, and still heavily interested in them and in other roads, says that it will make little difference to the railroads of the country who Is elected president this fall. "If It is Bryan," he said "there will be a hell of a time up there, in. Wall street for a month, and then things will return to normal. Ir Taft Is elect ed, there will not be any disturbance, but in a month after election, it will come to the same thing, so far as the railroads are concerned, with either the finner. "Taft is a wise man. a great man, and of judicial temperament. There is no doubt that he will pursue the Roosevelt policies, but he will not talk as Roosevelt has done. "After all, it was Roosevelt's talk ing and not his policies that did harm. It must be admitted that Roosevelt is wild, for a president of the United States. He has not yet sobered. It is nonsense to say that the election of any man will wreck the country. Andrew Johnson and Theodore Roosevelt put a great strain on it, but they were unable to affect it be yond quick recovery. "One of my reasons for supporting Bryan is that I am tired of hearing the panicky talk about his^ election raising Ned with our prosperity. "I don't believe it. Anyhow I am boy . enough still to want to try it and see. ? ".Besides I believe that If Bryan entered the -white house he would become a sober and conservative statesman." MIND BLANK FOR EIGHT DAYS. Resident of Savannah Has a Strange Experience. While relatives believed him wan dering about the country between Macon and Atlanta, and on his way to the latter place, Dan Cannou, whose disappearances during the last ten days have attracted considerable attention, was walking to Savannah and showed up at home Tuesday. He declares that for eight days his mind has been a blank. Yet in that time he rode from Savannah to Claxton on his daughter's bicycle, told strange stories of his plan to ride until he should be west of the Mississippi River and finally dispos ed of the wheel when a chance came for a ride to Macon on a freight train. In Macon his mind suddenly re sumed its normal condition and, leav ing friends who had cared for him without a word of good-bye, he started to walk to Savannah. Part of the journey he made afoot. He was in several hard rains and his more than 50 years, coupled with the exposure and unusual exertion, have left him very ill. The story he tells is that, while suffering from a sunstroke, he made the journey on his bicycle and freight trains to Macon, taking eight days to make the trip. During that time, he declares, he performed no action consciously. A relative went to Macon to search for him, but passed him on the road. A physician is in constant attendance upon him in an ofiort to keep his mind clear. The moments when he is going to sleep and waking are especially carefully watched. DIED FROM HYDROPHOBIA. Dreadful Malady Causes Death of a Girl in Brooklyn. Hydrophobia has caused the death of Florence Kirkman, the six-year old daughter of Ralph Kirkman, Brooklyn. For hours before the child was removed from her home to a hospital her cries could be heard all over the neighborhood where she lived. Six weeks ago the child was bit ten in the hand by a mongrel dog. She was playing in the streets at the time, tossing a ball into the air. As she stooped to pick up the ball, the dog ran at her and hit her. The girl's mother took her to a nearby druugist who cauterized the wound. The wound seemed to heal and nothing was thought of the in cident until about two weeks ago when the girl began to have spells of dizziness. Mr. Kirkman called lu a physician but he thought the dog's bite had nothing to do with the child's illness. Then the child had one convulsion after another. The doctor advised her removal to a hos pital. ARRESTED FOR SETTING TRAPS. Five Negro Fishermen Charged With Violating Fish and Game Law.

He would get possession of the notes, turn them over to his con federates, who, would discount them and divide the proceeds. Then Whelpley would change his alias. The holders would seek and sue the mak ers and perhaps be forced into bank ruptcy. Gundlach and Shippey were ar rested for swindling $12,000 worth of notes belonging to Alfred Visch er & Co., manufacturers. When ar rested Gunlach said he had given the notes to Shippey, who said he had turned them over to Jacobs and he said Helm was their possessor. All were held.

Of his own volition Mr. Bryan announced that he had received $500 from each of the two concerns as compensation for his work. When confronted with the sufees tion by a newspaper man thatNie had accepted money from corpora tions, and thereby had acted contrary to the declared policy of the Demo cratic party, Mr. Bryi.n stated that the whole proposition was a com mercial one. and that he very pro perly could accept pay for his labors.
