A B|G LEGAL BATTLE
ARGUMENT IN THE STANDARD OIL DISSOLUTION CASE BE-
 GINS IN WASHINGTON.
PUBLIC GREATLY INTERESTED
Justice of Federal Supreme Court to Decide Whether the Government or the Trusts Are the strongest-Emi. nent Lawyers Employed.


 Washington. Mar. 15.--In the su- preme court of the United States there has commenced sure enough battle of legal giants. It is battle between the greatest nation of the world on one side anu the great est industrial concern of all time on the other, namely the suit Of the United States to dissolve the Stan dard oil corporation
 In it's broadest sense, the case is simply one as to whether or not the government under existing laws can break up trusts and prevent monopo. lies.
 Generally speaking, although the facts upon which the suit is based are different. the governments effort 10 dissolve the tobacco trust involves the same principles. But to the general mind the tobacco trust is not the same as the Standard Oil corporatio The tobacco trust is only the tobacco trust while the Standard on company to the average person is a synonym for mo nopoly. Hence the interest In the to- bacco company suit is nothing to what it is in the pending one.
 Besides settling the question of whether or not the Sherman antitrust act is what it pretends 10 be, the case will test the policy inaugurated by President Roosevelt and continued by President Taft that to break up 8 trust the government should employ trust lawyers who know trust me thcds The governments side of the case is to be presented by Attorney General George W. Wickersham, aad Frank B. Kellogg. both of whom, grew famous and rich as corporation law. yers before they were employed by the government as trust busters. With them will be Charles B. Morrison, who used to be district attorney at Chicago and C. A. Severance, who is Mir Kel- loggs law partner
 These lawyers who will appear for the corporations are presumably the best that money can hire chief among them is John c. Johnson of Philadel- phia, who will be remembered as the man who argued the famous nonety nine year suit In behalf of the old Union Traction company In the long drawn out traction litigation, a suit incidentally that MT. Johnson lost Associated with him are John c. Mil. burn and Frank L. Crawford of New York; D. T. Watson, John M Free man and Ernest C. Irwin of Pittsburg and half dozen more.
 As the government won the case in the lower court and the corporation is the appellant. it will start the ar gument and also close It. The govern. ment lawyers will have the middle ses- sion, so to speak. In the matter of time for oral arguments the court has been most extraordinarily gener- ous as the original allotment is three days and that may be extended. When it Is remembered that 1t takes a very important case to get three hours it will be seen that the court realizes the importance of the case.

SHOT TO AVENGE FATHER
Possy Warren, IA Years Old. Fired Four Shots at Man Acquitted for
 Killing Parent.

Mammoth Spring, March l3.- Posey Warren, IA years old. at tempted to avenge the death of his father and took four shots at J. J. Cliue yesterday evening, ac- cordiog to a report here today. Cline had killed the boys father, 1t was alleged, but had been ac- quilted.
