Par-ewa- n 1 Meadvllle, Pa. Erie train No. 4, a fast train from Chicago to New York, Albany and Boston, due to arrive here at 2 a. m., was ditched about five miles south of this city Sunday morning. Twenty-fou- r passengers, the fireman and engineer, were severely injured. It is thought, however, that they will all recover. The cause of the accident was given by the officials of the road as the turning of the switch by some one who, it is thought, attempted to wreck the train. The engine and all of the cars left the rails and that the death record was not heavy seems almost a miracle. The officials hurried a special train to the scene of the wreck. The Injured were brought to this city and placed in Spencer hospital. Many of them were able to leave the hospital and continue their journey during the day. doubtedly Have Been Sam Samuels of Fountain Green, 22 Killed. years of age, was killed by lightning at a sheep tamp In the vicinity of Clear Creek.

Lawyers for Colossal Corporation Do Ing Everything In Their Power to Prevent Collection of Fine of $29,000,000 Imposed by Landis. Chicago. Counsel for tiro Standard Oil company of Indiana In an answer filed on Thursday to the petition of the government attorneys for a rehearing of the appeal from Judgo Landis judgment fining the company $29,240,000 for the violation of the laws, uphold the decision of Judges Grosscup, Baker and Seaman of the United States circuit court of appeals, reversing the judgment and lifting the burden of the enormous fine, ns good law amply justified by the records of the case. In the petition for rehearing the reviewing judges are charged, with assuming that Judge Landis attempted to try and punish the Standard Oil company of New Jersey in the which were original proceedings Oil the Standard company of against Indiana. On this point the answer declares it to he a matter of no consequence whether the trial court referred to the New Jersey company or the Indiana company as not a virgin offender. The real point is, says the answer, did the trial court, in imposing punishment, tke into consideration the relations between the Standard Oil company of Indiana and did It base its fine upon the wealth of the Standard Oil company of New Jersey and its ability to pay. instead of upon the wealth of the Standard Oil company of Indiana, and its ability to anti-rebat- e pay. To determine this the question Standard Oil companys attorneys assert that a few sentences extracted by the government counsel from the words of Judge Landis are not sufficient, and quote at length from Judge Landis opinion to show that he referred to the New Jersey corporation as the "real defendant and to the Indiana company as the "nominal defendant. The conclusion stated by the answer is that the enormous fine inflicted upon the defendant was because of the ownership of its stock by the Standard Oil comnany of New Jersev and because of the financial standing of the latter corporation is beyond dispute when the entire opinion of the trial court is considered.'
