William Rockefeller was the only

The charge against the defendants
being a misdemeanor, his presence

.The court held also that the charge
could not be sustained unless the Jury
was satisfied that the defendanta or any
of them "Intended to enter an Illegal com

logical, and not to be ascertained by
fixed rule of law.
The Sound lines' agreement of 1886 the
r-ourt characterised as "obnoxloua to the
Hherman law" and said that it waa for
the Jury to consider whether It was kept
In force after 1880 In furtherance of the
conspiracy. Discussing the testimony of
Mr. Mcllen, Judge Hunt said be had
"thought there would be no serious chal

HINT AT ELECTION
IN GREAT BRITAIN
Ministry Hopei to Avoid Neceisity
of Appeal to People to Pass
Compulsion Bill.
UNION OF PARTIES IS BROKEN
LONDON, Jan. 7. There seems
little doubt that a general election
will be the very last measure re
sorted to by the government to ob
tain the desired "consent" to the es
tablishment of the attenuated form
of compulsion provided for In the
pending military service hill. That
st'ch general consent would be ob
tained by an appeal to the country
la admitted by virtually every-one,
but the belief Is expressed In many
quarters that It can be won without
si, rh an upheaval.
The Westminster Gazette emphasising
tho fact that only forty-five memhers
of the House of Commons representing
const (tuenciea In Great Britain, which
alone Is affected by the bill, opposed the
mensure. It thinks the minority can be
convinced of the necessity of enacting
the law and that the treaty to national
unity will be removed by free debato In
tho later stages of the bill's course
through Parliament.
Itreaks Ip Collttoa.
The Manchester Guardian expresses re
gret that the first result of the project
of compulsory military service Is a
breaking up of the union of parties,
which, checkered by some untoward
events, nevertheless, helped to keep a
united nation concentrated on a single
object from the outbreak of the war to
the present day. It says:
"This breakup was announced by a
maralvc majority sffslnst tho government
bill st the great labor conference yes
terday and la slgnalired by the prompt
resignation of three lahor ministers. Of
the three partiea forming the coalition
one has thus withdrawn. Of the other
two parties one distinguished member ha
withdrawn, while a material proportion
of the rank and file will go with hlin.
"The government has at a stroke be
come a party government, although the
party Is new In politics and a definite and
regular opposition emerges at the same
moment. Such are the consequences,
deeply regrettable, of which many of us
have consistently warned the government
since the conscrlptioniats' agitation
began." -
Compulsion Jtot Neeeoaary.
The Go&rdian demands positive evidence
that compulsion is necessary, saying at
the same time that the national cause is
paramount over other considerations, ii
says that the figures of the Derby
recruiting campaign aa given out by the
government do not cvmvlnce It, as they
labor party.
These figures, the Guardian contends,
have made out case for further exam
ination rather than for action without
examination. .
