GRIGGS TO PINGREE.
Attorney Generals Reply to Michi-
gan,s Governor.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.-Attorney
General Griggs has written the follow.
ing reply to a. letter recently received
from Governor Pingree of Michigan:
II am in receipt of your letter of the
21st inst, asking me to send a copy of
my opinion to the effect that the
United States Congress cannot enact
law which would be effective in sup
pressing trusts, so-called.
In reply, I beg to say that I have
not rendered, either officially or unoffi-
cially, any opinion of this kind. On the
contrary, this department has been en-
gagged in bringing numerous suits in the
United States Courts under the Sher-
man Act of July 2, 1890, entitled, An
Act to protect trade and commerce
against unlawful restraints and mo-
nopolies,' in several of which cases, no.
toriously that against the Trans Mis-
souri, Freight Association, 166 L. 3,
$50, and that against the Joint Traffic
Association, I'll u. S., 25O, the result
has been the suppression by decree Of
the court of the offending association or
organization. Ae
You may possibly have reference to
a letter of mine to a private citizen
published several months ago in the
newspapers, wherein / called attention
to the fact that the only jurisdiction
that Congress had over combinations
or contractionS in restraint of trade
was in relation to those which directly
affected interstate commerce. That this
is true and that is the full extent of
the Sherman Trust Act, you will ascer-
tain by reading the decision of the
United States Supreme Court in the
case of Hopkins VS.. the United States,
I'll u. S. 57S, and the case of the
United States vs. S. c. knight Com
pany, 176 u. S. 1.
You are doubtless aware that it is
not the right or function of the Fed
ness transactions carried on within the
several States, except upon some
ground expressly authorized by the
Constitution. Congress can regulate
directly that which we understand by
interstate cornmerce,' but it has nc
or commerce carried on wholly within
the limits Of a State.
81 have called your attention to these
matters, not because | assume that You
are ignorant of them, for you doubt
less understand them well, but only in
order to explain to you that have not
given, and could not possibly have
given, any opinion of the purport ex-
pressed in your letter"

MATERIAL FOR HILo.

The metal work for the wailuku
bridge and the sswer-pipe for Hilo.
says the Hawaii Herald. has arrived in
San Francisco and will be shipped To-
Hilo at an early daje. Delay is caused
by the quantity OF railway material for
the Hilo Railway Company as well as
the merchandise ordered by merchants.
which takes precedence on the vessels.
The building of the street on the
Puueo side of the river will probably
not begin until the bridge is in posi-
ton. Otherwise stones for the road
would have TO be carried for long
distance and the expense would be
heavy, whereas wnCn the bridge Is fin
ished the haul from the quarry to the
new street would be short and the work
would be expedited. II is probable
that the bridge will be ready for traf-
fic within sixty days.
