Through the medium of the Bemidji Pioneer this notice was given wide : circulation and many men, interested in pulp- wood had arranged to attend the hearing, but for -some reason the railroad company requested a post- ponement of the meeting at that time, which request was_granted by tha commission.

FNED S2mn EACH Paper Companies in Combine Sen+ tenced in Federal Court, PLEADED GUILTY TO CHARGE Claimed They Were Forced to Form | Organization to Protect Themselves From Bankruptcy Because of Action of Buyers, New York, June 2/—Twenty-four companies manufacturing Manila wrap- ping paper were fined $2,000 each by Judge Hough in the United States cir- cuit court. They pleaded guilty on Friday last to maintaining an {llegal combination in restraint of trade. They were members of the Manila and Fibre association. In imposing the fines Judge Hough sald that the combination of paper manufacturers was a clear violation of the Sherman anti-trust law, but be- cause of extenuating circumstances he Wwould impose a fine only. The com- panies have arranged to pay their fines through their counsel. The case against the companies was instituted through the instrumentality of the American Newspaper Publish- ers’ association, for which John Norris of this city acted as agent. The com- panies composed almost the entiré membership of the combine of wrap- ping paper manufacturers, which was organized by John H. Parks in 1906. On complaint of Mr. Norris the fed- eral grand jury began an investiga- tion of the combine two months ago and on Friday last returned indict- ments against Parks and twenty-five companies. - Mr. Parks was in Europe, but Solomon M. Stroock, counsel for the combine, appeared in the federal court and pleaded guilty for:twenty- three of the companies. District At- torney Stimson, who had charge of the cases, stated in court that in view of the fact that the companies had saved the goveinment expense by. pleading guilty he was willing that light fines should be imposed. Counsel for the companies declared that the combine was formed two years ago to save them from bankruptey because of the methods of agents for consumers, who, he alleged, favored first one group of paper mills and then another in order to cut prices. Counsel also ‘declared that the combine was dissolved when it learned that the association came within the provisions of the Sherman law. WILL PUNISH REBATERS. Roosevelt’'s Retirement to Have No Effect on Prosecutions. _ Washington, - June 2 )—“President Roosevelt’s elimination from the polit- ical field by the nomination of Sec- retary Taft will not cause a cessation of the prosecution of the transporta- tion companies for. violations of the railroad “ rate law,” said Interstate Commerce Commissioner Lane, “but the law will be enforced strictly: “This commission is an independent body and has the power to call on the United States district throughout the country to secure in- dictments of railroads for granting re- bates. Indictments are now being brought and in the future others will be framed when it is found that the law .is being violated. “The law has been of great benefit to shippers, as it has stopped discrim- inations in rates and discriminatory practices to a large extent, Hvery railroad man in the country knows that it is unsafe and perilous to grant rebates, directly or indirectly; that the law will be enforced and that a pull will be valueless. “During the eighteen months that the new law has been in effect more relief has been given shippers. than during the eighteen years the old law was on the statute books.”™ VERDICT ‘IN LAND -CASE. Two Defendants Guilty and Two Acquitted. ‘Washington, June 2 .—“Guilty, Fred- erick A. Hyde, Joost H. Schneider; not guilty, John A. Benson, Henry P. Dimond.” This was the verdict rendered by a Jury in the criminal court here in the case of the trial of these four men, all ‘Westerners, one of them, Benson, a millionaire real estate operator, for al- leged conspiracy to-defraud the gov- ernment out of valuable lands in the Far West.

Benson and Dimond were immediately released from custody. All four men have heen under $10,000 bail. Hyde’s bail was increased under the jury’s verdict to $20,000 and Schnelders to $12,600.
