THE PHILADELPHIA RECORD is indig-
nant at the Congressional delay in in

THE PHILADELPHIA RECORD is lndlg-
nant at the Congressional delay IN In
vestigating the beef trust, and says;
Resolutions are cheap and one OF the
cheapest of this inexpensive class OF
commodities is the resolution introduced
in Congress to direct the Department of
Commerce to find out why, the price OF
cattle being so low, the price of dressed
beef should be so high. The methods
of the beef trust are too well known to
REQUIRE investigation; moreover, the
resolution in question is still further
cheapened by the failure of CONGRESS to
provide the funds that would enable the
Department of Commerce to perform the
inquisitorial functions with which 1t IS
invested by law. 1t would be more TO
the purpose to confer on the federal
courts jurisdiction over common law
crimes for instance, the crime of fore
stalling the market The State Courts
could direct grand juries to find lndlct-
ments when an offense which is indict-
able at common law has been committed;
but they cannot take jurisdiction OF
crimes committed in another State. The
Federal Courts can take cognizance only
of offenses made criminal by Federal
statute. An act of forestalling which
does not come within the precise terms
of the antitrust law is, therefore, not
cognizable either by the State or the
Federal tribunals.
