mand that the house should insist upon

ANTITRUST ACT VALID.
Federal Supreme Court Up
holds the Texas Statute.
MKBNNA HANDS DOWN DECISION
Suit Grew On. of Charge That the Stand
ard Oil Company Violated the Statutes
Against Illegal Combinations IN Re-
straint OF Trade. M :

ta EAasArAHHElZ 81 AM
WASHINGTON, March 2o.-In the
United States supreme court an opinion
was handed down yesterday in the case
of the Waters-Pierce Oil company, in-
volving its right to do business in the
state Of Texas, contrary to the provis-
ions of the state antitrust laws of 1889
and 1895.
1t was charged among other things
that the Waters-Pierce company was a
member of the Standard Oil Trust, as
organized in 1882, and;various other al
Legations We're made, but the court did
not enter uponsa general discussion of
the Texas law as applicable to this case.
The opinion sustained the decision of
the state courts to the extent of affirm
ing them and was thus opposed to the
contentious of the oil company, but it
did this upon the ground that the state
laws imposed a condition which the oil
company had accepted and hence was
without ground of complaint.
The suit grew out of the charge that
the oil company violated the statutes of
the state of 1889 and 1895 against Illegal
combinations in restraint of trade,
Thereby securing a forfeiture of its per-
init to do business in the state. The
trial4was first had in the district court
Of Travis county, in which the verdict
was against the oil company. On APP
peal to the court of civil appeals of the
state this decision was affirmed and it
was brought to this court on a writ OF
error. VS.
The basis of the action was the Stand
ard Oil trust organized in 1882 and it
was owned that its intention was to
control and monopolize the petroleum
industry of the United States in re
striction of trade, dividing the markets
of the United States into. various sub.
divisions, awarding Texas tothe Waters
Pierce company. The decision of yes.
terday was based upon the propositions
which were submitted to the jury in
the original trial.
