SMDARD OIL STILL IS aiil'ABLE TO HEAVY FINE ON MANY Under Opinion Reversing Judge Land is it May Re Fined Nearly Million. OVER 6,000 COUNTO TO BE TRIED STILL Government May Move For Change of Venue to Ten nessee District. (By Associated Press.) CHICAUO, July 22. Following the unanimous decision today of Judgus GroKacup, Hcaman and Huker, com posing the United States circuit court of appeals, reversing anil rcmundliig the case of the government against the Standard Oil Company or Indiana, in which cage. Judge l,andls in the district court had Imposed a fine of 129,240.000, the federal attorneys to day announced that the government has 30 days within which to tile a petition for a re-hearing, and that it would be filed within the allotted pe riod. In the case that was reversed today the (Standard Oil Company of Indiana wa found guilty of accepting rebate on shipments of oil from its relinery t Whiting, Indiana, to East St. Louis. 111. Judge Landls fined the compuny 120,000 on each of 1.462 counts, each count representing a car load ahlp ment. Today's opinion of the three judges of the higher court leaves llt tla df the contention, that each carload constituted a separate offense. p:ven the various shipments of which there were annul 500, could not he consid ered as separate offenses under th ruling of fW court of appeals. The fine should have heen based on set tlements between the railroad and the oil company, the opinion holds. Of these there were Just ,1fi. The mlxi- mum tine on this basis 'would amount to $720,000, and the minimum I3,000. , U IK Mid that 1223,000 is the total amount which th standard Oil Com.Iuont In Main, and that the master pany alleged te have received aa re bates the Shipments in question..

Such an nctioii.j District Attorney Kims could he ready j to lake within two weeks. There are. also seven other indictments, contain-1 tug 4.422 counts. As a vast amount I of Work has been done on the case I already decided, and reversed, it Is unlikely that an entirely new case will be instituted. The record of the present ease contains over a million and a half words and is estimated to hav cost the government HMm.miO Another move which may be made by the federal attormvs Is to transfer the prosecution from this purisillcllon either to the western New Yrk dis trict, or the eastern Tennci-see court Irt these two districts the government Investigation led to Indictment con taining about 2.IKI0 counts against the Standard Oil Company Conns opinion The most striking portion of the derision, epitomizing tin- attitude of the court was: 'Counsel for the government say In concluding their brief that the Klklns act was passed I tmw the peace of society and tin- welfare or the people demanded it; that i -inroad Inequality means husine- luin to all except those powerful enough to make themselves the beneficiaries of the discriminations: mean- tin- willing out of an Industry.
