3 Washington, March 16.-Holding up
the Standard Oil company of New
Jersey as a danger to the country and
Its organization as commercial pre-
cedent that must be eradicated from
the business world. Frank B. kellogg
Yesterday arraigned the corporation
before the supreme court of the Unit
ed States with all the power of his
eloquence. It was the governments
turn to be heard in the argument over
the dissolution of the Standard Oil
as decreed by the circuit court of the
United States for the eastern district
of Missouri.
Except about twenty minutes that
John G. Milburn consumed at the be-
ginning of the sitting in the conclusion
OF his opening address, and about an
equal length Of time occupied by d.
T. Watson at the close of the day,
both in defense of the Standard Oil,
all the time was taken up by. Mr.. Kel-
logg.
Z His object was to give history of
the Standard Oil and its activities,
which he denominated as monopolis-
tic, but frequently he was led of into
the law Of the case. He seemed in
clined to leave many of these points
for the discussion of Attorney Gen.
eral Wickersham, who is to close the
case for the government Particular
'lyS was this true as to the point of
common ownership of Standard Oil
property urged by the defense to have
existed both before and after the Or
ganization of the alleged illegal COM
bination in 1899.
Time after time the court manifest
ed its keen interest in the case by
subjecting the counsel before it to a
series of queries. They were par
ticularly anxious to know about the
common ownership claimed by the
Standard Oil counsel and to get the
various interpretations Of the mean.
ing which should be given to mon
opoiy, as used in the Sherman anti
trust act.
, The day brought out a sharp con-
flict Of purposes by the government
and the Standard Oil. Mr.. Kellogg
on behalf of the government dwelt
upon the activities of the corporation
with a view of attempting to prove
an intent, to monopolize. in addition to
the organization Of 1899.
counsel contended that such matters
were not before the court for review
The only question. they claimed. was
whether the alleged illegal combining
of 1899 was violation of the law as
held by the lower court. This they
based on the fact that the government
did not appeal from the decision of
the lower court.

The box Chesterfield, hanging in am
pie folds in the back IS the most popu
lar style of the season. The newest
tendency, however, is toward a slight
definition of the figure, as shown in
the overcoat Illustrated on the right.
Whether it be made single or double
breasted, with fly front or buttOning
through, or with or without cuffs, are
matters of personal preference, not of
proprlety.
1t is Il noteworthy fact that the most
recent models have the high shoulder
seam and heavy sleeve head, and a long
wasted effect that is quite marked. The
