Government Wins Case Against
Big Monopoly

ST, LOUIS. Mo-. Nov. 20.-The
government today won It's suit 70
dissolve the Standard OH company OF
New Jersey, capitalized at sl0O. 0OO.-
eco, The case was brought under d.
rection Of President Roosevelt By
Deputy Attorney General kellogg.
The decision deals the oil trust Sc
we're blow, The government was sus-
tanned on almost every point. the
only exceptions being In favor OF q
minor subsidiary company named a.
one Of the defendants. These we're
held to be not clearly shown as be-
ing dominated by the trust. The
orders OF the court regarding the
Standard OIL company do not take
effect for 80 days, The case was
tried in the United States district
court Of this state and was handed
down by Judge Elmer Adams.
The case is one OF the most import
ant and the decision the most noted
In the history OF the Jurisprudence
In this country. The hearing has
extended over a period OF nearly two
years aud the testimony was taken
in number OF cities. notably New
York. Washington and Chicago. High
officials Of the Standard OIL company,
including John d. Rockefeller. were
called to the stand. The govern
ment introduced a volume Of evil
dence regarding the methods OF the
trust aud the high oficiAls OF the
company were made unwilling wit
nesses showing the dealings of the
Standard with It's competitors.
~ n Conspiracy.
The suit was filed in the United
States circuit court In St. Louis in
1895 by direction OF the attorney
general. The action Is one Of equity
brought under the provisions OF the
sherman antitrust Law on the charge
that the control, through the stand
ard OF company. OF New Jersey, OF
other corporations engaged in refin-
ing and marketing oil was a consplr-
aey In restraint OF trade.
Grants Permanent Injunction.
The government asked for a per-
manent injunction restraining the
Standard OIL company from eontinu-
ing In control OF the subsidiary com
panies and corporations and from re-
organizing companies In such q man
ner. rs that would also be a con-
spiracy in restraint OF trade. An ap-
peal can be taken 10 the supreme
court. which Il is expected the trust
will do.
