Where, however, the subject of Inquiry affects the country at large, and, especially where It Involves the complaint of a violation of the anti-trust statute having a more than local effect, the attorney general exercises a special tupervislon. He Is particularly charged by the law wtlh the enforcement of this act and my duties In this behalf are also fixed by statute under his direc tion. , "There will be no change In the present Instance. Mr. Sims, in whom the attorney general has entire confidence, will present his testimony to the grand Jury.
