Sixty Already This Tons off and a crop of was done on a JUDGE LANDI.S IMPOSES PEN. ALTY OF ON THE STANDARD OIL MONOPOLY. Asserts Penalty Is Moderate in View of the Flagrant Offenses Rail-roads Will Also Be Tried. Chicago, Aug 5. Judge Kenesaw M.

Landis, Saturday, in the United States District Court, fined the Standard Oil Company of Indiana for violation of the law against accepting rebates from railroads. The fine is the largest ever assessed against any Individual or any corporation la the history of American Jurisprudence, and is slightly more titan 131 times as great as the amount received by tho company through its rebating operations. The case will be carried to the higher courts by the defendant company. The penalty Imposed on the company is the maximum permitted under the law and it was announced at the end of a long opinion in which the methods and practices of the Standard Oil Company were mercilessly scored. The Judge, in fact, declared in his opinion that the officials of the Standard Oil Company who were responsible for the practices, of which the company was found guilty were no better thaq counterfeiters and thieves.

"Oue thing remains' said Judge Landis, after Imposing the "it tqust not he assumed that iu this jurisdiction these laws may be Ig- I nored. If they are not obeyed they will he enforced. The plain demands of justice require that the faots disclosed la this proceeding be submitted to a Grand Jury with a view to the consideration of the conduct fit the other party to these transactions. Let an order he entered for a panel of sixty men, returnable at 10 o'clock on the morning of August 14 th. The United States Div trlct Attorney Is directed to jvoceed accordingly.

Backed by the cohesive forces ctt be United' States authorities, Judge Landis will proceed against the Chicago Alton, the Chicago Eastern Illinois and the Chicago Terminal railroad companies, that gave to the Standard Oil Company Illegal rebates. And he will attack the Individuals of both the oil and the railroad corporations, instituting and permitting such preferential rates. The railroads are to be Indicted on lines Identical with the procedure In the Standard Oil cases. The Individuals will be prosecuted under the conspiracy act In which, after conviction, there Is prescribed a penitentiary sentence. Flames and Dynamite Injure Town.

FILIPPI WAS THE VICTIM OF A PECULIAR CIRCUMSTANCE SUNDAY As Mrs. M. Filippi, who resides at 000 West Seventh street, was sitting on her back porch Sunday evening, she was struck on the arm by a bullet that catne through the screen some distance above her head. The woman was considerably alarmed and the sheriffs ofllce was notified, and Sheriff Buckner and City Marshal Frederick went to the scene in order to make an Investigation. No shots had been heard In the vicinity, and all that the officers could do was to follow wbat was supposed to be the direction front which the missile, came.

The officers went north to a point near the northwest city limits, and when Just north of the whistling post on the Santa Fe a number of "peon" laborers were found swimming in a ditch. One of these had a "shooting iron of 38-calibre, and as It was the only shooting that had been done anywhere near where the woman was sitting, the man who gave his name as Lenardo Ra-mldes, was taken to the Jail. No blame Is attached to the man, as it is thought the shooting was accidental, the point where the man was taken being upwards of one-half mile from the Filippi home. The. wound in the woman's arm Is not serious, and will soon be healed.

GREAT STAG PARTY The following special to the Sen tlnel Is from the longest grapevine wire In the world: The palatial residence of N. Wels-baum In this citv was the scene of one of the most enjoyable and fitting stag dinners in the history of bach-elordom in the citv of Hanford on Sunday. The distinguished guest of the occasion was Simon Levy, the Visalia banker, who arrived in bis 4ty horse power Mercedes, with his mechanic and chauffeur. At the hour of 12 the room in which the table was set was beautifully decorated with onion-tops and corn-tassels and presented the appearance of one of the plin gardens of the Waldorff-Astoria. The tables were set with the richest weaves of the loom, and silver and china-ware being much in evidence.

The dinner was served in twelve courses, the principal dishes being of French and Spanish origin, the recipes of which bus been handed down through many generations of the Welsbaum family. After the dluner had been served those present retired to the smoking room-aw, enjoyed the always acceptable aftec-dlnner smoke. Those present and participating were: Old Man Mauasse, and Young Man-asse; Old Man Welsbaum and Young Welsbaum, Old Man Ranard and Young Knapp, and Simon Levy, hereinbefore mentioned. At this writing the clatter of dishes Is heard down town, nnd is supposed to emanate from the kitchen sink where the old man oi the house is taking a hand. Intending to get things restored to order before the return of his spouse from the coast FROM TULARE LAKE Tpjff Doss, who is employed op thft Hunter ranch was in town lie slates that his house is about half a mile from the levee where the waters of the lake are hemmed off, and that the water of the lake has fallen about five inches during the past three weeks.

He attributes this fall to the cessation of inflow from gome of the streams, and also to evaporation. He says the tules have grown so rank along the border of the lake that from where he lives but lit tie water can be seen. MADE A MISTAKE It looks as if that between the re-eent Fourth of July city park and chemical engine muddle over in Visalia that there will be neither a park or a chemical materialize, and the Fourth has gone into the past. Visalia ought to have a chemical engine Hanford wilt soon have one, and the specifications for the machine are nearly perfected, and when they are acoepted the machine will be ordered. Chief Kendall has the matter In charge.

THANKFUL TO THE PEOPLE Mrs. E. Condon called at the Sentinel office Monday and requested the Sentinel to say to the public on her behalf that she was thankful for the liberal donations handed her for the purchase of a new organ for the Lakeside church. She received fifty dollars from the Hanford people, and she wishes to thank them especially. HAY IN SAN FRANCISCO The hay market in San Francisco remains same as last week.

"I have used Chamberlains Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea remedy since it was first introduced to the public in 1872, and have never found one Instance where a cure was not speedily effected by Its use.

Cures It in a few hours. Relieves any pain in any part dw Another Insanity Inquest was held at the Jail last Monday on the person of the Chinaman who was taken there several days ago from Chinatown, where he had been acting In a peculiar manner.

Sue Chung Kee and Young Chow were present, and stated that the name of the man was Jack Lee, and about six months ago he had fallen on the floor of the room where he was staying, and had been unconscious for about one hour. This had happened four or five times, until it was seen that the fellow was losing his mind. The Chinaman acted queerly during the Inquests by making all sorts of motions with his hands, and uttering unintelligible words. Sue Chung Kee and Young Chow endeavored to converse with him in the Chinese language but could not make him comprehend what was said to him nor could they understand his answers. Drs.

R. E. Dixon and J. A. Moore conducted the examination, and Superior Judge Covert presided.

It was ascertained that the unfortunate man had $690 on deposit at the Old Bank, and that made, no doubt, in his business of buying fruit. After the usual questions had been asked he was adjudged Insane, and Judge Covert signed an order committing him to the asylum at Stockton. The man is said to be a cousin of the Chinaman who committed suicide several months ago by hanging himself at the Cbas. Latham ranch. Citly Marshal Frederick, Night-watchman Hicks and Deputy Sheriff Ayers went upinto Chinatown Friday night, and there surprised a room full of Chinamen who were having a time dear to the heart of every "celestial" in playing a lottery and imbibing in beer.

The entrance was made to the place from both the rear and front simultaneously, and the officers met In the center of the building greatly to the consternation of the occupants of the room. Quong Wah and Sun Lung Jan were the principal actors, and were taken Into custody and placed In the county Jail. A dozen bottles of beer and several pounds of lottery tickets were captured In the raid and the stuff is stored at the city hall in readiness for the trial of the captured Chinese. The case will be foughL Saturday morning the Chinamen were brought before City Recorder Camp and were represented by Dixon L. Phillips.

The chinks" both made pleas of not guilty, and were placed under bonds of $100 each. Quong Wah anfl Kong Quong, thp two Chinamen who were arrested on a charge of operating China lottery, and who made a plea of not guilty, and were released on bonds of $100 each, had ft change of heart today, and came before City Recorder Camp and changed their pleas to guilty. Quong Wah, the principal offender, was given a fine of $15, and Kong Quong got off easy with a fine of $5. The chinks" evidently realized that there was a plain case against them, and would rather pay a lighter fine than would fall to them If they were convicted by a jury. Quong Wah was allowed to take away his account books and the beer captured In the raid, and the lottery tickets were destroyed by fire.

DAM TO CHECK FLOODS PLANS port NEW EMBANKMENT TQ pROTEtT STOCKTON ARE Stockton, Aug. 5. County Surveyor Quail has completed the plans for the new fascine embankment which will be constructed at once to keep the waters of the Calaveras river and Mormoir channel In these streams In the vicinity of Bet-lota. It was the giving away 6f the bulkhead In the center of these two waterways that caused the high water In Stockton last March, as the surplus crossed the low lands to the east of this city and passed through the stretch. Under present specifications the water will ba turned Into the main channels and It will take far more water than thut of this year, which, was unusually hlgli, to cause ar.y trouble.

A concrete foundation will be used as an anchor and wire with sections of brush and gravel will be placed alternately In payers. The artloq of the stream will cause sufficient sediment to he forced Into the mixture to piake willows grow and form an embankment that will withstand more pressure than a solid concrete dam, which might be washed from under or around each end. The Supervisors will order the work commenced today and the dam will be finished long before the winter rains set It. PRINTED SUPPLIES FOR FRUIT GROWERS.

Dally Sentinel, CO cents ft month. vou where. a i A FREAK OF NATURE While Kings' county boasts of big tilings in the realm of natural production.

and claims to raise the biggest pumpkins, the tallest corn and the best ami biggest watermelons, and has a 2300 pound steer, it now lays claim to the smallest living calf in existence. Peter Hoggs, west of town, has a heifer calf on the ranch that is eight days old and weighs hut 14 pounds. The calf is of Durham parentage, and is as white as snow. The little calf is as tUelv as a cricket, and takes its nourishment from a bucket three times a day. Mr.

Daggs will have the calf on exhibition at the fair here in September, if all goes well. The animal is in fine condition and of good proportions, and is really a curiosity.

W. Jones arrived from Sacramento Sunday and Monday morning left for the capital city, taking with him the negro, BUI Coleman, who nas been held at the jail for several days on suspicion. The officer stated that the man was wanted ln Sacramento on a charge of grand larceny, he having entered a car while working with a construction crew on the railroad, and took therefrom a fine gold watch and $15 in money. The prisoner declared this morning that It would be discovered that they had the wrong man. but it Is not likely that there Is another colored man In existence who resembles Coleman, and the officers are confident that he is the man wanted.

TWO-CENT FARES LOWEST RATES TO EAST The transcontinental lines will put Into effect soon a new fare to Chicago owing to the fact that the 2-eent rate became effective in the states of Missouri, Iowa and Illinois, says the Call.

The new rate to Chicago will be $39.20 as against $62.50, and second-class it will be $49.20 as against $32.50. To New York It will be $76.80 first class, as against $79.05, and for second-class $64.55, as against $66.75.
