After Big Fish.

A dispatch from Philadelphia. to the
Pittsburg Dispatch says that city is to
be the scene of the first great prosecu-
tions to be brought by the Government
against the Pennsylvania railroad and
the Standard Oil Company. United
States District Attorney Thompson will
conduct the cases, arrangements for
which will be completed this week at a
conference between Alexander Simpson.
Jr.. and Charles Il. Hughes.
The one great question under con-
sideration is that OF the advisability OF
individual prosecutions against A. j.
Caesatt, President Of Pennsylvania.
BY both the commissioners and special
counsel appointed by the Attorney Cen
eral to follow the testimony and prepare
prosecutions ii is believed that more
good can be accomplished by centering
the prosecution upon Mr.. Cassatt than
by scattering their energies over prose
cutions of the presidents Of all railroads
concerned, most of which are directly
or indirectly controlled by the Penn
sylvania.
Although Mr.. Simpson and Mr..
Hughes were the lawyers especially ap-
pointed to report upon prosecutions, II
10 understood they have the consent OF
the Government to associate with them
selves other counsel as they see fit and
when the first of the prosecutions is
called William A. Glasgow, Jr. who
has conducted the probing for the Inter
State Commissioners, will be found
ranked with the prosecution.
District Attorney Thompson has been
advised by the Attorney General to pre-
pare for the prosecutions of the Penn
sylvania railroad; lawyers are working
night and day making plans for a de-
Tense from what the revelations already
made show will be the strongest anti
trust attack ever made in American
courts
The charge to be made by the Gov
ernnent will be that of conspiracy. This
is ordinarily hard charge to prove.
but the lawyers believe that facts have
been brought out in the investigation Of
the dealings between the railroads. the
Standard Oil Company and certain
favored coal companies which can be
explained only upon the grounds OF
private understanding.
Moreover, the charge of conspiracy,
IL proved, carries with it imprisonment
as punishment, and President Roosevelt
has made it clear to the prosecuting
lawyers that. in his opinion, the public
will have more respect for the sincerity
Of prosecution thus directed than Ia
one which results only in fines against
| the richest corporations in the world
