Extensive Improvement to Be
Made.

Extensive improvements will be
made during the next six months on
the road bed and bridges of the Frank
fort & Cincinnati railroad. President
George B. Harper stated few days
ago he had contracted for the material
to construct six steel bridges between
Frankfort and Paris which means an
outlay Of $4,000.
When the bridges are put in the
Frank fort and Cincinnati railroad will
be able to carry over its line as much
freight of any kind as is possible, and
there will be no limit placed or the
tonnage. Under the present arrange
ment the road is allowed only 10000
tons gross, but when the new steel
bridges are put in service they will
hold up the heaviest freight that can
be hauled over the line.

of rate classifications and authority
to suspend, modify, change or annul
regulations of the railway companies.
The e provisions contain very
stringent provisions ~forbidding the
ownership of stocks in a competing
railway company, and as the terms
of the amendment provide for GRIM
inal punishment for violations of the
orders of the commission, it is apt to
be effective. The railways are given
certain time in which to dispose of
the stocks of competing companies
now held, The law IN this respect
is not changed in its intent, but the
terms of the new law proposed, are
much more drastic and calculated to
be much more effective. There are
other ways of less Importance in
which the powers of the commission
are extended.
There will of course be strenuous
objection to the changes in some
quarters, but they are in line with
the tendency of the times, and the
most progressive of the railway in
terests of the country, have long
since realized that regulation was
certain, and that regulation by a
commission of men of the character
of those that now compose the Inter-
state Commerce Commission, was in
reality a guarantee against more
drastic treatment if not government
ownership, which all good citizens
realize would be about the very
worst thing that could happen in this
country. There is n particular in
which the report of the commission
is favorable to the companies, and it
is a very important consideration, as
the effect of it will be such as to
largely offset the drastic provisions
against combinations of competing
properties.
1T is the provision allowing COM
peting companies to unite in fixing
rates, providing they are published
and filed, subject to the approval of
the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion. This provision gives ample,
authority to prevent disastrous com-
petition, and assures all companies an
ever chance with their competitor.
The action of the market seemed to
indicate that the leaders in the rail-
way world, considered this provision
of great Importance

in many ways been adjusted to the
new conditions made by the entry of
the large corporation into our indus
trial life.
1t is therefore a very Intricate and
delicate situation to be dealt with,
and it will be instructive to call to
mind the conclusion of Ex-President
Roosevelt, who certainly cannot be
accused of having been favorable to
the corporate interests. He said in
his last message to congress:
81 believe that it is worse than
folly to attempt to prohibit all COM
binations as is done by the Sherman
Antitrust law, because such a law
can be enforced only imperfectly and
unequally, and it's enforcement works
almost as much hardship as good. l
strongly advocate that instead of an
unwise effort to prohibit all combina-
lions, there shall be substituted a law
which shall expressly premit combi-
nations which are in the interest of
the public, but shall at the same time
give to some agency of the national
government full power of control and
supervision over them"
1t is expected that President Taft
will take the same position toward
the law, and that congress will work
out a solution along the lines indi-
Gated by Ex-President Roosevelt. No
more important matter awaits the
attention of u representatives.

INTERSTATE COMMERCE. LAW.

The special commission appointed
to draft amendments to the Inter-
state Commerce Law has finished it's
work, and is prepared to make a re-
port to congress. One of the i'm
portant recommendations is for the
establishment of a court of COM
menace which shall have jurisdiction
over ase arising out of the opera
ton of the law. The effect of the
establishment of such a court would
be to hasten decisions in disputes
over railway rates, and as the de-
cisions would stand until reviewed
by the supreme court the orders of
the commission could not be evaded,
al now, for months and sometimes
years by dilatory motions and ap-
peal from M court to another. 1t
is proposed also to bring the tele-
phone and telegraph companies
under the scope of the law.
The powers of the commission are
greatly increased by the proposed
amendments, and extent to a review

SHERMAN ANTITRUST LAW.

It has taken many years for the
country to wake up to the fact that
in the Sherman Antitrust Law is
possessed a very effective power to
prevent combinations 'in restraint of
trade as the law puts it. This
phase has been interpreted to mean
restraint of competition" The law
was first applied to the railways in
the Trans-Missouri Traffic association
case, in which the government
sought to break up traffic %associa-
lions formed for the purpose of main
tanning railway rates in a given sec
ton of the country. This decision
took the legal profession by sur
prise, inasmuch as before the appli-
cation of the law by the government
in that case, is had never been pre-
sumed that the law applied to the
railways. This opinion was based on
the fact that the railways were not
mentioned in the discussion in con-
gress that preceded the passage of
the act, showing conclusively that
congress had industrial combinations
solely in mind, and that the law
reached further than it's trainers in
tended.
The Trans-Missouri decision was
rendered in 1897, and it was not
until 1904, that the government won
another famous victory under the
Sherman Law. The decision in 1904
was in the Northern Securities case,
and in that decision the supreme
court went further tnan before, and
brushed aside the technicality that
Northern Securities company did not
hold a majority of Great Northern
stock. 1t held that a practical con-
troll of that property along with the
actual control of the Northern Pa
cific, was sufficient to make the COM
pany a combination in restraint of
competition. Since then there have
been some very important decisions,
such as that in the American Tobac-
CO case and now in the Standard Oil
case. In all these decisions there has
been a tendency on the part of the
court, to accept the literal meaning
of the law, and as James G. Carter,
counsel for the railway association
in the Trans-Missouri case remarked,
"a literal Interpretation of the Sher-
man Law would prevent a combina-
tion of any sort of description even
of two small dealers if engaged in in
terstate commerce."
The decision in the Standard Oil
case, apparently makes this very
clear. So far as can De judged from
a first study of the decision the court
has held that the mere fact of a COM
,ination, regardless of the acts of the
corporation and whether they are
benefited or not, is sufficient to con-
denim the corporation and enable the
government to force a dissolution. 1t
is obvious, therefore, that the effects
of the decision depends altogether on
the acts of the Federal administra-
tion and that the manner in which
the law department of the govern
ment treats the powers given it by
the Sherman Antitrust law, will de-
termine to just what extent the bust
ness of the country is to be upset.
One situation must not be over
looked. Could the law have been en-
forced at the date of the attempted
combination only a few would have
been hurt, but now me securities of
industrial corporations are held by
hundreds of thousands of investors,
and the business of the country has
