Administration Forces
Victorious in Senate

Guthrie, Okla, Mar. 12.-Adminis-
tration democrats voting solidly with
four republicans in the house Friday,
sent to indefinite postponement the
Wallace bill, requiring all moneys col
lected by state officials to be deposited
in the state treasury, and providing
that the state treasurer shall make a
bond in at least 100000 for faithful
performance of duty. Four democrats
Ross, Dunn, Wallace and Wilson
stood in the breach and kept up the
fight to the last ditch, and died fight
ing.
The vote, So to rs, came at the end
of day of acrid debate in which few
republicans participated, the struggle
being tacitly avowed to be between
the administration forces and the in
surgent democrats.
Maxey, Durant and Workman made
the principal speeches against the
bill, the latter two taking the floor
this afternoon. Their arguments were

Guthrie, Okla, Mar. II. = At the
close of hot debate, during the
course of which Senator Blair deciar-
ed that if the code commission con-
tinues to refuse to perform its duty in
approving vouchers Of K G. Crane,
employed by Craiman Harris as a
law clerk, the commissioners SO re-
fusing should be sent to Jail, even
to the penitentiary, and sentenced to
hard labor" The senate passed fin
ally, without the emergency, the
Thomas bill, appropriating $1,000 to
pay the expenses of the code com
mission from February l, when their
salaries stopped to March Is. The
bill carries 81 500 to pay the expenses
Of the code commission at Sc day
for the period mentioned during which
time they have been in attendance ad-
vising with the legislature, and pay
*. C. Crane, law clerk, $500 for four
months work and $50 room rent for
the commission.
Blair's remarks we're directed to
Hatchett's motion, which failed to
carry, to strike out the $500 appropria-
ton for Crane. Members of the senate
stated that Crane was employed by
Harris, but rendered valuable service
to the entire commission, but that
majority of the commission had re-
fused to approve his vouchers because
of the row that had been going on in
the commission. Senator Brownlee,
whose father is a member of the code
commission, took serious exceptions to
Blair's remarks declaring that Blair
had called in question the integrity of
every member of the commission and
accusing him of spending all last sum-
mer in preparing an index to the ses-
sion laws which So day man could
have done in one-tenth the time.

Allowed to Complete Work

For the purpose of saving time, l
will plead guilty to everything that
Senator Brownlee charges me WITH
said Senator Blair, with a smile.
Then / will accuse him of every
thing with which he has charged the
code commission" declared Brownlee.
Upon motion of Meminger, all per-
sonal remarks were stricken from the
records of the senate.
A motion by Thomas to strike cut
the expense item of $1,000 was lost
Williams, chairman of the appropria-
tion committee, stated that he under
stands that if the expenses are not al
lowed the code commission would con-
tinue to draw $400 month. Thomas
declared that If they are entitled to
$4OO month up to the present time
they will be able to go into the courts
and force the state to pay that amount
from February l, when their appro-
priation was exhausted, down to the
time they are discharged by the leg
islature.
The senate passed finally these,
bills:
BY Williams, authorizing local
health officers to protect the state
against tuberculosis by Williams ap-
propriating s1S,600 for expenses of
the state election board; by Goulding
for transferring membership from one
beneficiary society to another; by
Burnette, Reeve aud Smith from the
house creating a superior court in
Custer county
The house advanced to third read
ing the Earl bill prohibiting the oper-
alton of pool halls and bowling alleys
within one mile of any state educa-
tional institution where boys are in
attendance.

tion of the second section of the Sher-
man antitrust act; that 33 other
companies accused were proven not
to be in this combination.
The court enjoined the principal
company and its directors from ex-
ercising any control over the subsidi-
ary companies; it enjoined the sub
sidiary companies from declaring or
paying any dividends to the principal
company, but not from distributing
ratably to the share holders of the
principal company the stock of the
subsidiary company; it enjoined these
found to BE in the illegal combina-
tion" from continuing in it or form
ing new combination by means of
aggregation of the physical properties
lin the hands of one member of the
combination, and forbade those in the
combination from engaging in inter
state commerce until the combination
was discontinued
The counsel arrayed in defense of
the Standard Oil includes John G. Mil
burn, of Buffalo, n Y, in whose home
Mckinley died; D. T. Watson and
John G. Johnson, leaders of the
Pennsylvania bar; and Moritz Rosen-
thai, the legal pillar Of the Standard
Oil interests. OF these Johnson made
the principal argument to the SUI
preme court in the defense in the to-
bacco cases. The defense has urged
that the corporations, which entered
into the organization of 1899, had not
been competitors since 1879; that the
stockholders of the principal come
pany were the joint owners of the
stock of the subsidiary companies and
had the right to convey their stock
in the latter to the former in trust
for themselves, and congress was
without power to restrict their ac-
quisition, their method of holding or
their disposition of their title to their
property or their use of it; that the
corporations whose stock were in
] vested in theh Standard Oil company
OF New Jersey are private corporations
and not charged with public duty
as were the railroads in the Northern
Securities case; and that if any re-
straint Of trade resulted from the or
ganization in 1899 it was neither di-
rect, immediate nor substantial.
Attorney General Wickersham prob.
ably will make the principal argu.
ment to the court in favor of the dis.
solution. Frank B. Kellogg. of Min
nestota, and Charles B. Morrison, OF
Chicago, have been most active in
the preparation of the case against the
defendants. Their arguments were up
held in the main by the lower court.
The business world is awaiting the
outcome of the suit to know what ef-
/ feet it will have upon the future not
only in the Standard Oil, but in other
combinations with points in common
The department of justice is waiting
for the decision of the court in order
to shape the government attitude to-
ward other organizations of which
complaints have been made.
