TOBACCO FIRMS LOSE.
Final Decree of United States Cir
cut Court Is Filed.

The final decree of the United States Circuit Court
IN the governments suit against the American To-
bacco Cou1panv and other defendants filed yes
terdav with Commissioner Shields. The suit was
brought under the Interstate Commerce act to dis
solve the Defendants on the ground that they had
formed a monopoly and illegal combination in re-
straint Of foreign and interstate commerce and
trade. The court sustains this contention in the
cases against the American Tobacco Company,
American Snuff Company, r. J. Reynolds Com
pany Pierre Loriard and the BlaCkwells Dur
ham Company. The decree restrains these holding
connpanies from engaging in foreign and interstate
commerce until competition between them is re-
stored. The governments request for recevershps
was denied. The governments appeals and also
those Of the defendant companies to the United
States Supreme Court will a stay to the de
cree filed yesterday.
The court dismissed the petition against the I'm
periaI Tobacco Company of Great Britain and Ire
land Limited: the Bitsh-American Tobacco Com
panv W. s. Mathews & Sons the T c. Williams
company David Dunlop. Inc; the United Cigar
Stores Company and 5 to the individual defend
ants named therein.
The governments appeal TO the United States Su-
prerne Court is based the dismissal OF the com
plant against the United Cigar stores Company,
the Imperial Tobacco Company and the British
American Company. A further ground for appeal
is the failure Of the court to declare that the
American Tobacco Company, the American Snuff
Company the American Cigar Company. the Amer
icar StoEie Company. the MacAndrews & Forbes

attempted and attempting to form monopoly

concerning the methods heh ad used in making the
estimate and the proportion owned by the railroads
and large coal companies. which the railroads con-
rrolled Mr.. Griffith said:
Il made the estimate at therequest Of Harvey
Fisk & Sons the New Yorw bankers. They told
me thattie anthracite coal interests wereissuing a
great number of bonds and that these bonds were
being sold in the market. They represented that
they did not know whether thecoal supply behind
the bonds would Iastten tenthousand Years and
said thaithey wanted a conservative estimate NV
estimate represents possible shipments to market
not production.
Professor Grif1th said that the coal supply is con-
trolled by the railroads in the following proper
tons:
