TAFT'S ANTI TRUST
IDEAS GIVEN TO
CONGRESS
President FavOrs Federal Con-
troll of MOnOpOlies
ALSO COURT OF COMMERCE
Would Forbid Transportation Com
panies Owning Stock in Any
Competing Lines

Washington, January S.-Presi-
dent Taft's special message to con
gress yesterday was the first impor-
tant outlining of the policies which
he is prepared to urge
The first and most important fea-
ture is the demand for federal con
troll of all trusts and monopolies and
creating a court of commerce.
He would provide for federal
charter for corporations but suggests
no changes in the Sherman antitrust
law at this time, The president
thinks that an opportunity should be
given the big industrial combinations
to bring their business once more in
to the zone of lawfulness' by taking
out federal charter under certain
prescribed conditions before it be
comes necessary to proceed against
every corporation about which there
is a breath of suspicion
A wholesale investigation and pos
sible prosecution of the trusts, the
president points out would result in
serious disturbances and produce a
halt in our present prosperity that
will cause suffering and strained con.
ditions among the innocent many for
the faults of the guilty few.
The question which | wish in this
message to bring clearly to the con
sideraton and discussion of Con
gress, he continues, lis whether, in
order to avoid such possible bust
ness danger, something cannot be
I done by which these business com
/ binatcns may be offered a means OF
/ changing the character, organization
and extent OF their business into one
within the lines of the law under fed
eral control and supervision secur
ing compliance with the antitrust
statute.
The conditions upon which feder
al charters are to be granted unde
the presidents recommendations ar,

BRITISH COMMANDER WARNS
Nicaraguans That They Must Not
Fight in Greytown

Washington, Jan. THE major
ity of houses in Greytown being own
ed by British subjects, there must be
no fighting within that town. If any
does take place there | shall consid-
er myself at liberty to land strong
armed party and guns to stop it"
This is the substance of note re-
ported by Consul Moffat at Bluefelds
to have been sent by the commander
of the British ship Sylla, now at
Greytown, Nicaragua, to Generals
Estrada and Hurlado, commanding
the revolutionary and government
forces, now in that vicinity.
This action on the part Of the
British commander injects a new ele-
ment into the military situation in
eastern Nicaragua and in all proba-
bility will result in Estrada moving
his army Immediately westward with
Managua for its ultimate destinat-
ion.
