and one which involves a test of the
Sherman law never brought before.
The governments case will depend
largely upon the Interpretation Of the
patent laws.
One of the governments prosecutors
says that when the action is instituted
1t will be recognized as far eclipsinR
the Standard Oh case in magnitude
and public Importance. and one con.
sentative estimate is that it will cost
the government no less than 81, 900, 0OG
to prosecute.
This latter fact Is said to be the
answer of the department of justice to
criticisms of delay.
Attorney General Wickersham was
unwilling to involve the government in
that great expense without the fullest
Investigation of it's chances of proving
what It will allege.
To Fight In Sections.
The Investigation is not completed
but it has disclosed an object of at
tack of such proportions that the de-
partnent of justice has abandoned any
idea of taeking the combine as a whole
and intends to fight the so-called trust
in sections.
The bill soon TO be filed will be
