In the arguments before the sup
RENE court at Columbus, o., few
days ago of the motion of the attor-
ney-general to dismiss the master
commissioner and continue the inves-
tigation of the Standard OIL Company
in open court, Hon. Virgil p. Kline, of
Cleveland, attorney for the oil COM
pany,' was forced into making some
very positive statements and admis-
sions. He declared in the first place,
in response to interrogatories of the
court, that the company will not un-
der the former order of the court pro-
duce any books other than those al
ready given in evidence. In the Sec
ond place, he admitted that there are
still outstanding about $27, 1000, 900

Standard Oil trust, which the court
ordered dissolved in 1892. but which

Found a Depleted Treasury,

When the United States occupied
San Juan, Porto Ricos capital, and
in November Julian Blanco was sue
ceeded as secretary of the treasury by
DR.. Coll y Toste, 1t was found that the
insular treasury held 70 cents In cop
per, $3.S0 in Venezuelan gold and
about 5000 In American bank bills. DR..
Coll was greatly surprised to find the
insular treasury in such a depleted
condition. From receipts issued
the treasury he has learned that over
100000 pesos. about 100000 ars miss
ing, from this fund, and 1t is probable
that the full amount which has been
done away with, amounts to nearly
100000 pesas. This money was taken

GOVERNMENT CANNOT RE-
STRAIN MONOPOLY.


4N'N hplh NNlt'lf
The Administration through its
official legal adviser and mouth
piece, Attorney General Criggs,
has now committed itself fralk k Y
and aquareIy to these propositions:
4 nat the United States Government
cannot suppress or even restrain mono
poly by the use Of existing laws.
That The United States Government
has not the power under the Constitution
to euact law that will suppress or even
restrain monopoly.
That Ito quote Mr.. Grigcs's exact
langnage) "if monopolios are amenob!e
to any law they are amenabl9 to the laws
OF the respective States
AS the World showed yesterday,
thpr are not nmenab!e to the laws
Of the respective States, because
under the Federal Constitution, as
interpreted by the Supreme Court
in au uubrokcn series of decisions,
no State has n right in any way to
discriminate against the products
/ Of any other State, and therefore
one State permitting monopoly
could undo and render uncoustitu-
tionaI the adverse legislation of all
other States.
Mr.. Griggsand all lawyers know
well that even il the States had the
power to discriminate against the
products of other States, that
Fpow4r could not be exercised with
out disrupting the Union. For the
use of it would lead to retaliatory
legislation to interstate trade wars,
to industrial anarchy, and there
fore ultimately to political chaos
