When ci'minal court opened in Kit tanning, last Friday, a sealed verdict retuiaed by a juiy "late Thursday night was opened and it was found that C. W. Baumgardner, a Pennsylvania rail road detective, and County Detective X. K. Coller had been found guilty of as sault and battely and aggravated as sault and battery. This is the sequel to the Leechburg muddle, which has long been dragging through the courts. Ira Bntler, a Leechburg furniture dealer, was charged with mutilating a com petitor's goods. Baamgardner beinsr the prosecutor. At the late session of court Ex-Sheilff J. S. Gallaher was found guilty of influencing that grand jury in favor of Butler: Butler himself has been found giilty of the offense and now Baumgardner and Coller have been convicted of assaulting Butler while ar resting him In the U. S. District Qourt in Kansas Cily. last Friday, the four big meat packing companies of that town and the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad Company were sentenced to pay a tine of $15,000 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 prisonment 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 so do ing, but imprisonment of their officials would act as a general deterrent. The jury in the case of Jos. Eskovitz. charged with false pretense, returned a verdict of not guilty. A plea of nol pros was entered in the case of Maurice Pollock, selling liquor without license, ou payment of the costs by the defendant. The last case tried in criminal court was that of the Standard Brewing Co. of New Castle, selling liquor without license. The Brewing Co. had been operating in Lyndora through an agent.
