1t Is further alleged that this scheme
10 monopolize Is also o combination and
conspiracy in restraint of trade and com
merce among the States
From this Il appears that the defendants
are all engaged in the common effort to
obtain unlawful rates, which they subse-
quently share or pool among themselves,
and that their scheme oontemplates not only
the pooling of these unlawful rates but the
exclusion OF all outside competitors from
obtaining them.
NO competition can long endure against
those who are secretly and in defiance of
the law enjoying rates for the transporta-
ton of their property in interstate COM
merce which constitute n preference over
all others in the Same business No more
fruitful source Of monopoly can be found
than the enjoyment of preferential rates
The history Of the country demonstrates

commended that the Government had not

than by such construction az had been
