TOBACCO TRUST SUIT
WILL BE A PRECEDENT
Government Power Under Sherman Law to Be De
fined by Decision Expected Within Year-Other
Cases Depend on the Outcome

The most important trust-busting case
now pending, in the opinion of many
business men, Is the Tobacco trust case.
That case is IL be decided by the Su-
preme Court some time the latter part
Of the present year, or early next
year.
In this case the Government has
sought to have the American Tobacco
Company thrown into the hands of a
Federal receiver for the purpose of adj
ministering it's affairs and making GER
tain that the combination is dissolved.
This corporation is a huge holding COM
pany, with control OF the stocks of an
immense number OF tobacco and related
corporations.
The prosecution is based on a vast
deal of evidence gathered from many
sources, but resting on the broad prop
osition that the concern is q violation
of the Sherman antitrust law. II the
Government shall win in this case
there viii be small doubt of its success
in the suit for dissolution Of the Stand
ard OIL Company
The evidence IN both cases follows the
same lines, though in some regards the
Government has been able to secure
more complete and satisfactory evidence
to sustain its tfrsory in the tobacco case
than in that cf Standard on. The to-
bacco case is farther ahead, having al
ready gone up to the Supreme Court,
while the Standard OH case has but re-

STATESMEN DIFFER
ON PEACE METHODS
Brewer, Knox, Bryce, and

at Banquet.

Members OF the American Peace and

Of the century viii see the idealistic
view Of today converted into the prac-
tical view said Mr.. Justice Brewer at
the banquet which the Peace League
gave at the New Willard last night
with Secretary Knox the guest of honor.
We do not need the army and the
navy" continued the justice. I'VE are
separated by 1900 miles from any Euro
pean country, and such a length OF
miles, when we consider our tremen-
dous resources, would give US peace"
Former Senator James 3. McCreary
OF Kentucky, president of the league,
said. in introducing Secretary Knox:
The sentiment of the people every
where is for peace, and the feeling in
favor OF settlement of international dis
putes without war and by arbitration
has grown steadily stronger.
1T is an Indication OF the favorable
prospects for the realizations of the
aspirations for universal peace and ar
bitration OF international differences
that the nations best equipped for the
maintenance of their claims with force
are among the first to propose their
peaceful adjudication" said Secretary
Knox.
Ambassador Bryce Of England. whose
armament must be greater than any
two powers according to a recent
speech in parliament. looked at the
question OF peace from all angles. "Dis-
armament is large question" he said.
and l am not prepared to go into il
now. With a heavy armament the
tendency is to take advantage of power
that goes with il. Without a heavy
armament the fear is that another ma
ton viii take advantage of helpless
ness. 1 think IL lies with the United
States. especially on account of its
advantageous position among the na-
tions Of the world, to takt a prominent
part in the movement for International

It is two years since Mr.. Sheen first
made discoveries on his farm In Fon
Du Lac townchip which led him to be-
lieve that he had stumbled on the site
Of the first post established in this
vicinity by white men and from which
the Creve Coeur Club of this city was
named. Since his discoveries he has
been gathering much data from the
writings left by the early voyageurs and
explorers and is now firm in his belief
that he has found the location of the
fort whose real site has been so long
disputed by Illinois historians.
Mr.. Sheen has the following exhibits
to prove his contentious: Half a dozen
ruSted avis of peculiar design, unlike
anything In use today; dozen rem
nants Of hand-saWed oak planks, nu-
merous huge cak timbers twenty feet
long and foot square, lying just be-
meath the surface of the ground; a

hewn tinlbers preserved under water,
