Supreme Court Chamber Was
Crowded With Lawyers and
Legislators While the Argu-
ments Were Being Delivered
WiCKERSHAM CLOSED
FOR THE GOVERNMENT
John G. johnson, for the Cor
poration, Grew Sarcastic as
He Plead With the Judges to
Rule Against Circuit Court.
DECISION is RESERVED

Washington, March 16.-Fnal ar.
gument of the famous suit to dissolve
the Standard Oil company of New
Jersey as conspiracy and as mo-
nopoly in violation of the Sherman
antitrust law, was made today and
the supreme court took the matter
under consideration.
The third day in the contest Of
counsel before the court was a mem
orable one, not only because of the
arguments, but because of the inter
est manifested in the proceedings on
the part of the bench.
Rules of the court prohibiting
spectators standing in its presence
were swept aside, and members of
Congress stood around the wall of the
room. Not In years have so many per-
sens been packed into the little
chamber.
1t fell to Attorney General Wicker
sham. in behalf of the government, and
10 John @. Johnson. for the defense. 10
make the closing remarks. In addition,
ID. T. Watson, another Standard Oil cOun-
sci. addressed the court earlier in the
day.
Mr.. Wiekersham tainted his opponents
for desiring TO cast the veil OF oblivion
over the past. He spoke of that pa st as
containing a national scandal which the
courts and the legislatures were called
upon to put down he emphasized the
position that the reorganization of 1893
gave the Standard OH a more solidified
organization that II possessed before. an
organisation that prevented the subsidi-
airy companies from becoming competing.
In closing, he urged the court not to
be influenced by the cry that this pro-
ceeding was a blow directed at business.
because such a cry had been made often
before and proven groundless.'
Johnson's Strong Address.
The closing address, by Mr.. johnson
was partly a reply to MIR. Wickersham.
Although the wolf may not have come at
first, he told the court, when it did come,
IL was too late to cry.
He paid his compliments to Frank b.
kellogg, author of the petition Of the
government on when the decree of dis
solution before the court was based.
Mr.. Johnson told the court 1t reminded
him of the contents of the witches cald-
ron in Macbeth as IL appeared to have
been made up of a collection from the
scrapbooks of disappointed oil producers
and agazinists-female or otherwise"
The best part about it. he told the court,
was that it ended with a prayer.
Mr.. Johnson interpreted what he des-
1gnated as the new doctrine of poten-
tial competition" as an attempt TO re-
quire each individual to compete with
himself.
Turning TO another phase of the contro-
versy, he asked How on earth could
we monopolize the manufacture of re-
fined oil. when We control only II per cent
of the crude oil OUtput?'
Tut they complain with our enormous
amount of wealth we drive our competi-
tors out of business he exclaimed. "Are
you going TO conduct business on the race
track principle, and nut a handicap on

FIVE PERSONS FOUND

Bodies of Man and Wife, Two Chill

deep wounds and piled in confusion in a
corner of a little shack in Houston
Heights, the bodies of Gus Schulz, his
Wife their three-year-old daughter and
six-months-old son, and Walter z. Hy-
man, a boarder. were found this after
noon
The bodies were discovered by a deputy
sheriff summoned by neighbors, who sus-
pected something wrong, as they had
seen no one in the Building for nearly a
week.
The murders evidently occurred Friday,
and when found the bodies were decOm-
posing. The little home was locked and
bOlted and there was no tangible cleW TO
the person who committed the deed.
Nothing was found in the room that
would suggest a hand-to-hand battle be
tween the men. The similarity of the
wounds tends TO show that all were killed
by the same person, who had escaped
after locking the house

FEAR OF MINERS STRIKE POTTER'S WESTERN TRIP
Crisis viii Be Reached Today When
the Sub-Scale Committee
Makes It's Report.

Cincinnati. March 16.-After eight days
of argument the crisis in the soft coal
operators and miners of the central COM
petitive field will be reached tomorrow
morning.
This is the time for the sub-scale COM
mittee TO report to the scale committee.
The latter body will then report to the
special convention of the United Mine
Workers of America, and this organiza-
ton will decide from the report whether
there shall be a strike of 100000 miners.
There is a decided feeling of apprehen-
sion on both sides tonight. At the con-
vention of the United Mine Workers to-
day President Lewis intimated that the
Increase in wages was the one demand on
which the miners would never yield. The
meeting Of the sub-scale committee to-
day resulted in the usual disagreement.
1t became known tonight that the sub
scale committee could not reach an agree
ment and in all probability this wouid be
the report they would make to the scale
committee tomorrow.
It is also rumored that the scale com-
mittee will endeavor to effect a compro-
mise before the matter is finally sub
mitted TO the convention OF the United
Mine Workers of America.

Chief JUSTICE SHOWS
COURTESY TO HARLAN
Head of Supreme Court Re.
Trains From Taking Oath
Immediately.

Special 10 The Tribune.
WASHINGTON. Dec. 13.-Every seat
available To spectators was taken III the
United States supreme court room to-
day, but the crowd assembled In the
hope OF seeing an event that will mark
an epoch in the history of the nation. WAS
disappointed. for Edward Douglas White,
the new chief justice, did not take the
onth OF office.
The crowd did see however. an eXhibi-
ton OF tho amenities that are exchanged
between members Of the highest tribunal
in the world. The senate has been called
the most dignified deliberative body on
Garth and the supreme court is surely
tho most dignifed judicial body. When
the new chief justice came in he greeted
his associates with a deprccatory bow
and took his place with AS much defer
ence to the other members as though he
had not been elevated 10 one of the
worlds highest positions yesterday.
The spectators then realized that in
all probability. the new chief justice in
tended TO allow Justice Harlan to preside
over the court until the tribunal recon-
venes January g. after the holiday recess.
Ir is delicate compliment to Justice
Harlan and illustrates the consideration
with which these high dlgn!tares treat
one another.
