Now Way 10 FIsh. Trusts.

Atlanta May 1.-The Supreme Court
to-day handed down one of the most far
reaching decisions in its history, when IL
held that under the common law there
was remedy against trusts.
The case was that of Che jacobs, Phar-
macy against tho Atlanta Retail Drug
gists, association, Jacobs charging that
because ne sold at cut prices other drug
gists had conspired against him to pre-
vent him from purchasing goods.
Inc case was won by Jacobs in the
lower court, and when appealed in the
made. :" - -
The supreme court held that the Geor-
gia antitrust law passed In 1895 was un-
constitutional, but said that, under tho
common law such conspiracies and
trusts that prevented competition were
illegal and contrary to public policy.
The druggists who were fighting Jacobs
were enjoined from doing 30 further.
jacobs attorneys will now push the suit
for damages for $4,000, which is now
pending.

A Georgia Official Arrested.

Tuesday morning Mr.. Jas. D. Massey,
Secretary of the Railroad Commission of
Georgia, drove to Walhalla to take the
train for Charleston, but was left by
reason of a change of ten minutes in the
schedule time of leaving. 1t was thought
that he could drive to West Union and
catch the train at that point, and Mr..
Massey accordingly began to "speed"
his horse with this object in view. He
arrived at the West Union depot just in
time to see the train pull out. On his
way back to Walhalla he was arrested by
the marshalof West Union on the charge
of reckless driving and taken before In
tendant j. G. Shockley, who, on hearing
Mr.. Massey's reasons for driving so rap
idly, dismissed the case and said he
would have done the same thing under
similar circumstances. The whole trou-
BILE is the result of tho failure on the
part of the management of the Blue
Ridge Railway to furnish promptly cor
rections for their schedules to the papers
This is only one of many instances going
to show that railway schedules in the
newspapers are consulted and should be
carefully attended to by the officials of
the road.
