TO GUST OIL TRUST
Commissioner Named by Missouri
Supreme Court Reports.
FINDS COMBINATION EXISTS
Standard, Waters.Pierce and Republic
Companies in an Agreement to
Prevent Competition.

Jefferson City, Mo-, May 24.-Con-
missioner Anthony, appointed by the
Missouri supreme court to take testi-
mony in the custer suit of the state
against the Standard Oil company, in
his report made to the court holds
that the evidence introduced before
him is sufficient to GUST the Standard
Oil company and tributary companies
from Missouri His findings hold that
the Standard, Waters-Pierce and Re-
public Oil companies entered into an
agreement to control the prices of OIL
He recommends that their charters
be revoked and that they be ousted
from the ctate. In his report he holds
that the supreme court has the au-
thcrity to make the ruling of custer.
Attorney General Hadley filed the
suit in the supreme court two years
ago, charging that the Standard OIL
company, the Waters-Pierce Oil CON-
pany and the Republic OIL company
were in a trust and were parties to
conspiracy to control the price of oil
and petroleum products in Missouri
and to limit and prevent competition
in the oil business. More than a year
has been occupied in the taking of the
testimony, witnesses having been ex-
amined In New York, St. Louis and
other cities.
Testimony Reviewed in Detail.
In his report to the court Judge
Anthony reviews in detail the testi-
mony showing the organization and
conduct of the companies. He re-
ports to the court that the evidence
shows that in 1901 the Standard, Wa
ters-Pierce and Republic Oil CON-
panies entered into an agreement,
which continued to exist up to the
time of the filing of the suit, for the
purpose of fixing and controlling the
prices to be paid by retail dealers
and others in Missouri for the prod
ucts of petroleum and to limit and
prevent competition in the business
of buying and selling oil.
The report Of Commissioner An
thony will now be reviewed by the
supreme court. The court may affirm
the findings of the commissioner or
It may remand the case to him with
directions for further proceedings.
# the report should be affirmed and
the findings of the commissioner
adopted by the court the court will
then have power to take from the
Waters-Pierce OIL company, which is
a Missouri corporation, its franchise
rights as corporation. With regard
to the Standard and Republic COM
panies, both of which are foreign cor
poratlons, the court would have power
to cancel their right to do business in
Missouri.
