Packers Until Decision Is Given.
Washington. Feb. 10.--In spite Of
She fact that there have been all
aorts OF rumors about prosecution Of
she steel trust, and Samuel Gompers,
president of the American Federation
OF Labor, has attempted to make out
case against that combination before.
President Taft and Attorney General
Wickersham, It was said on good au-
thorlty that there will be no busting
OF the steel trust for many months to
come at least.
At present proceedings against the
trust, II was said, are not even con-
templated by the department of jus.
tice. Until the supreme court acts in
the Standard Oil case and the Ameri-
can Tobacco company case It is
doubtful If any other prosecutions
will be Instituted against any of the
combinations OF capital except the

The administration feels confident,
u was made known, that the supreme
court will dissolve the Standard Oil
company. but 1t is willing to wait to
lind out for certain what that action
will be.
