st. Paul, Mimi, May pa Not since
the last arguments were made in the
famous Northern Securities case il
the L. S. Circuit Court here about
three years ago, mas there been such
noted array of lawyers as appeared
in that court this morning in the
case of the United States against the
Standard Oil Company and its allied
corporations Judges Saaborn. Van
derventer, Hook and Adams were up
on the bench, and the matter for con-
sideration was bill of exceptions fill
ed by the Standard against the gov
ernment's complaint which seeks to
have the Standard company and its
seventy other combines declared un-
lawful combinations in restraint of
trade and to nave the combinations
dissolved.
Frank B. Kellogg, of this city made
the principal argument for the gov
erpment. The bill of exceptions makes
about fifty objections to the com
plaint, the purpose of all which is
to narrow the issue by eliminating all
parts of the complaint that refer to
the business methods of Rockefeller
Rogers and other trustees prior to
the year 1899.
May Be Ousted From Missouri.
missioner Anthony, appointed by the
Missouri Supreme Court to take testi-
mony in the custer suit of the State
against the Standard OIL Co., today
made his report to the court. He
holds that the evidence is sufficient
to oust the Standard Oil Company
and tributary companies from Mis-
souri,.
Attorney General Hadley filed suit
IN the Supreme Court two years ago.
charging that the Standard Oil Com
Dany. the Waters-Pierce Oil Co. and
the Republic Oil Co. were in a trust
and were parties to a conspiracy to
control the price of oil and petroleum
products in Missouri and to prevent
competition in the oil business. More
than a year has been occupied by
Commissioned Anthony by the taking
of testiIffssV. He reports that the eVi=
delce- shows that in 1901 the three
companies named entered into an
agreement for the purpose of fixing
and controlling the prices to be paid
by retailers and others in Missouri
for the products of petroleum and to
limit and prevent competition in the
business of buying and selling oil.
the report says the companies named
secured Control of ninety per cent of
the oil business and misled the pub
lie into the belief that they were sep
arate and distinct corporations, when
in fact the agreement made them one
corporation.
If the report should be affirmed and
the findings of the commissioner be
adopted by the court, the court then
would have power to take from the
Waters-Pieree Co., which Is a M1ssou-
ri corporation, its franchise rights,
The court also would have power to
cancel the right of the other two cor
oorations to do business in Missouri,
and it can also impose fines upon the
defendants.
