Is that It w expressly 4ealaned no only

Chief Juatlce White alri the court found
no cause to d'ubt tha conclusion of the.
court below, namely1:
"That the acta and dealings established
by the proof operated to destroy the
'potentiality' oT ompelltlon,' which other

but also., to be-ai attempt to monopolise
and a monopolization, bringing about a
perennial violation of the second section."
Itaat of Decision.
H baaed "the ' conclusions of the court
that th folding? Jelow were right on
two broiid teajsons. . Theae wer stated by
the chief Jtleflia t -be aa followa:
"A Booa.ua imifleatlon and power of
control, evar; petroleum and Its products
which Va the . Inevitable result of the
cornhlnhla Jil the New Jersey corporation by
the lncteas of Its atock and the transfer

cOunterva4ltlii. circumstances to ay the
least, to the prima facie presumption of
Intent and purpose to maintain the domin
ancy over the oil industry, not aa a result
of 'JlormaT- mthM-ontidiiBtrlflJ develop

waa resorted -tol hi order that . greater
power might be-added than would other
wise have arisen' had normal methods been
followed, the whole .w-fth the purpose of ex
cluding others from' tha trade and. thus
centralising In theombtnatIon a perpetual
control of the movements of' petroleum
and Its products -lu the channels of inter
stale commero.
"'B Because the pclara facie presumption
of lntnt to ' reatrtin ' trade to monopolize
and to ,hrng wbout monopolisation result
ing from" the act of expanding the stock
of tha New Jejy corporation and vesting
It with audi control of the oil Induatry, la
mad conclusive by considering, (1) the
conduct of the persons or corporations who
were meWly lntumemal in bringing about
tha extension-of -power. In tha New Jersey
corporation . before . the consumption of
that result knd prior' to the formation of
the truat agreements of 187J and 1882; (2)
by considering the proof aa to what was
done under .those agreements and the acta
marlzed by John O. Johnson In' the Closing
argument In the case. He declared that the
country did not suffer by the mere large
neB of the corporation, but profited. For
the alleged elna that the corporation bad
committed, he argued, there existed an ad
equate remedy at law, and therefore it was
not necessary for equity to step In to dis
solve the corporation. He denied that re
bates were blng accepted by the corpora
tion now, or that It was cutting prices or
organising secret concerns, and character
ised the government's Inferences to them In
the pset aa necessary to "give the proper
color and raise tha proper amount of in
dignation" In the case. Ha declared that
the standard OH organization waa the re
suit of orderly growth. .
"Let the cbsnnels of commerce he open
for all who may desire to enter." said he
In closing, "whether with ocean steamer or
with dugout, with Rockefeller wealth or
with naught but brains and their hands
unfettered by their own Improper restraints,
and uolnterfered with by the absues of
others, and all will have been done that Is
wise. Beyond that lies the antagonism of
Irresistible economic necessity and danger
of disaster, the length and breadth of which
no man can foretell."

powers In th New Jersey corporation .as
well as by weighing the mooee In which
the power vested In that corporation has
been exerted and the results which have
arisen from It."
History of th Halt:,' ' ,
The ault which called forth ton'ayV de
rision was Instituted In If In th United
Btatrs circuit court for the Eastern district
of Missouri It was brought In the name of
th I'nlted Btates. The Immediate object
waa to dissolve the Standard Ofl ,company
of New Jersey. ...
From the very beginning the bmlbess ahd
the legal worlds recognlaed that.tW.'suit
put the Sherman antl-irust law to tti tnoat
severe test to which It had been subjected.
The law had been on the statirte book since
1W and had been the basis of some eight
een suits finally passed upon by the' su
preme court of the United Ptates.. That the
law was constitutional waa accepted as set
tled by theee decisions, but simple al the
words of the statute seemed, ther was an
absence of unanimity In regard to Ita Inter
pretation. With that altuatlon confronting
the government and the defendant, the
ault was begun with the general belief that
the entire business world would feel the
effect of the outcome of th gigantic
etruggt.
Th government claimed that two sec
tions of th Sherman anti-trust, law had
been violated Tha first section reads a
followa:
Every contract, Combination In the form
of trust or otherwise, or conspiracy. In re
straint of trade or commerce among the
several states, or with foreign nations, is
hereby declared to be Illegal.
The second section reads:
Every pereon (which subaequently was
explained In the statute to Include corpora
tions) who shall monopolize or attempt to
monopolize or combine or conspire with
any other person or persons, to monopolise
any part of trade or commerce among- the
several states, or with foreign, nations,,
shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor.
eventr Corporations ladlrted.
The Standard Oil company of New Jersey,
some seventy subsidiary corporations, John
D. Rockefeller. William Rockefeller, rfenry
M. . Flagler, Henry H. Rogers, . John, D.
Archbold, Oliver H. Payneand' Charles M.
Pratt, all defendants In th ault. denied
the charges.
Montha were spent In gathering evidence.
The general line of attack aa shown by
evidence presented by the government was
this:. It alleged that about 1870 th Rocke
fellers and Flagler conceived tha Idea of
controlling the petroleum trad .of th coun
try, and -a. little later entered Into- a c '
splracy with Rogers,' Archbold, Payne and
Pratt to gain a control of the oil-business.
To carry out this alleged conspiracy, i It
waa asserted they first "pooled'' their in
terests, then put them Info 'th hands of
trustees or "tfusta" and lnally trhen the
trust of 1S82 was declared "void" lir "a de-'
ctslon by the Ohio supreme court in a
proceeding against the Standard Oil com
pany of Ohio, reorganised the , Standard
OH company of New Jersey to take over
their Interests and to' securer .monopoly.
Evidence of rebating, of prle cutting, and
of the organlaatlon of secret concerns to
pose as Independents was elicited to show
that the Standard was seeking by unfair
means to restrain trade and to progur a
monopoly. . - ,
"Standard OH"- Introduced rldene to
show that there bad never been such a
conspiracy. It sought to prove that th
Ohio supreme court did not hold the -trust
agreement of 1SS3 void, but merely, required
th Standard OH company of Ohio to with
draw from th "trust." Evidence waa pro
duced to show that rebating had been th
order of the day among commercial con
cerns, that price cutting, and secret con
cerns were not th rule and were used a
legitimate Instruments, of competition..
Dorlsloa f Clrralt CoacU-j
The, circuit court held that th reorgani
sation of the Standard, pll Company' of
New Jersey In 1ST was .not .only a violation
of the . first section of .th apt. which re
ferred to restralnta of trade, .but also of
th second aectlon. which applied to mon
opolizing. Th Standard Oil had argued that
ther could b no additional , restraint as
a result of the reorganization' because the
Standard pil Company of New Jersey waa
owned by a common body of owners In' ex
actly the same proportion that all the" sub
sidiary companies taken over by this new
organisation had been held by the same
common owners for years past. Th court
held otherwise, and ssld that th Combina
tion In a single corporation or person by an
exchange of stock, of th power of many
stockholders holding the same proportion
respectively of th majority of th. atock of
each of aeveral corporation engaged la
FEommerc In th same article among, the
I states, or with foreign nations to reatrtot
competitors therein, rendered - the-- power
tnua vested In th -corporation 'person
greater, mora easily exercised, more durabl
and mora effecltve than that-previously
hJd by th stockholders. In thes effects,
th court found a restraint In Commerce
Th court then procdd to vlv a clan
to remedy th altuatlon. It entered m decree.
enjoining th Standard Oti "Company tf
ew. Jersey from exercising any control
by reaaon of Its stock ownership- over the
subsidiary companies from paylnaj any divi
dends to th Standard Oil Company-of N
Jersey. It p-at a provision in th decree to
enjoin any possible evasion of the decre
oy the organization of a similar combina

Government Wins
Big Point in Wilson
Contempt Case
Supreme Court Holds Corporation
Books Canot BKept from
Grand Juries.
WASHINGTON. "u7.'lB.LTh .Upreme
court of the United Ptates today approved
th reont sentence of contempt Imposed
in the New Tork courts on Christopher C
WHaon. president of th United Wireless
Telegreph company, because of refusal ti
permit the examination of the company's
books
By this decision the federal government
won a far-reaching legal controversy In
" "P corporation hooks for axamlna-
that officials of corporations cannot refuse
lion by rrsnd Juries lest they themselves
o Incriminated therehy.
Th sentence of contempt Imposed In
New Tork courts on Wilson was based on
his action In defeating the attempt of a
grand Jury to examlna th books of his
corporation.
It la said the Investigation had to do
with the alleged violation of postal laws.
Wilson 'himself waa In court to answer
to the subpoena, but he declined to allow
th grand Jury to examine the book or to
turn them over to the director of the
company for production In court. Th
ground for his refusal was that th books
would tend to Incriminate him. He wag
finally adjudged In contempt of court and
placed In the custody of th marshal. The
caae was later brought to tha aupreme
court. ' ' ' '
Justice Hughes, In announcing the opin
ion, aald that Wilson could not under thes
circumstances" assert a personal privilege,
which the obligation of the corporation to
the government required It to perform.
Justice Mc.Kenna delivered a dissenting
opinion.
The court also approved the contempt
sentence imposed on William Dreiser of
New Tork, secretary of the Lichenatein
Millinery company, who had also refused
to produce books under circumstance simi
lar to those In th Wilson case.
