UNDER ANTI.IRUS Law
CONSPIRACY MAY Be A
Continuing 0FFENSE
tBy Associated Press,)

Washington, D. c., Dec. 12.-An-
nouncing the broad rule that con-
spiracy under the Sherman antitrust
law may be continuing offense" in
stead of an offense limited to the
formation of conspiracy and possibly
over acts Hereunder which would
revive the conspiracy, the supreme
court Of the United States went long
way toward dispelling doubt as to the
law.
The direct result of the decision is
that Gustave f. Kissel of New York,
and Thomas B. Harmed of Philadel-
phia must answer further to the in
dictment brought in 1909 in New York
charging them with conspiracy with
the American Sugar Refining company
and others to drive the Pennsylvania
Sugar Refining company out of bust
ness.
The indirect result will be that the
government will find it easier to pros
ecute conspiracy under the Sherman
antitrust law. Instead of being re-
quired to show in the Indictment con-
spiracy Of an overt act in furtherance
thereof within three years of the time
Of Indictment, it is said that the ac-
cused will be required to show that

He and the other four captives, ran
a close chance of suffocation in the
resulting smoke, the windows frozen
down and the doors locked
The men had their cells lined with
newspapers and when the flames
caught they flashed along the whole
wall in an instant. Prompt and very
energetic action on the part of Lee
and a cellmate, who was asleep in
the same cage at the moment of ig-
milton, extinguished the fire without
other damage than watersoaked bed
ding, roomfull of smoke and the de-
struction of the old papers. Their
calls soon brought relief from the
choking smoke, none the worse phys"
ically for their adventure.
