When ci'minal court cpened in Kit
tannin;.'. last Friday, a sealed verdict

was opened and it was found that C.

road detective, and County Detective N.
K. Coller had been found guilty of as
sault and battely and aggravated as
sault and batter}-. This is the sequel to
the Leechburg muddle, which has long

In the U. S. District Qourt in Kansas
City, last Friday, the four big meat
packing companies of that town and the
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad
Company were sentenced to pay a fine
of $13,000 each for violation of the
Federal law against taking and giving
rebates. At the same time a New York
broker and his clerk were sentenced to
pay considerable fines and to brief im
prisonmeot for securing rebates. The
cases will be appealed to the higher
courts, but Judge Mcpherson did his
part toward making the law as it stands
respected. The officers of the defend
ant corporations should, also, have been
sentenced to imprisonment.- This de
fect. in the law should be cured by the
present Congress before it adjourns.
Fines, however large, will not prevent
great corporations from breaking the
law if they can greatly profit by ao do
ing, but imprisonment of their officials
would act as a general deterrent.
