COURT DECISION
Predicts a New Commercial
System as Result.

New York. May 16.-The viewpoint of
the capitalists on the oil trust decision
was expressed by Andrew Carnegie at a
meeting of the Federation of Churches
in the Metropolitan Building. Mr.. Car
negie was delivering an address on
Peace" but he interpolated this:
The Supreme Court of our land is
worthy of its high function. 1 have
read the decision which it has just made
and which you all know. That decision
displayed common sense in the highest
degree.
There is nothing to fear from it.
Nothing in our land will be disturbed
We shall simply establish a new COM
mercial system. We shall have a new
commercial life. We shall have a Court
of Commerce which shall be to industries
what the Supreme court is to our nation
and laws. We have discarded a worn
cut system and adopted one that is
adaptable to our present needs

SAXON CUSTOM CAUSES.

Aged Father-in-aw with Aid of Consul Prevents Man

Alfred Naumann. who is connected with
the New York Machinery Company, and
who is a brother-in-law Of Geissler, met
him at the pier, intending to escort him
and his wife to the Naumann home in this
city. He also was unable to account for
the holding up Of the travellers.
1t was finally surmised, after the Geiss-
lers and Naumann had talked about half
an hour. that the trouble was due TO

Tobacco Men Confident.
New York. May 16.-The officials of the
American Tobacco Company profess to
see victory in sight for the company in
view Of the Standard Oil decision. They
expect to know their fate about May %.
There was a general air of optimism at
the company's headquarters to-day,
where the sentiment was summed up as
follows:
The case against the American To-
bacco Company is not at all similar to
that of the Standard Oil Company, in.
as-much as it was not established in the
lower courts that the defendants con-
spired with each other or with any other
persons to exercise a monopoly in re-
straint of trade.
The lower court failed to find that the
defendants became benefciaries under
any contract whereby any traders re-
stricted the opportunity which any other
traders had been engaged in interstate
commerce"

position to a narrowing of the Sherman
antitrust law by amendment is so well
known that his visitors gained the i'm
preston that he personally would have
preferred a decision without the def
mite Limitation which the Supreme Court
has placed upon the statute by reading
the word unreasonable into the law.
The President told callers yesterday
that a man might hold views of his own
before a decision had been rendered by
the Supreme Court, but that after the
court had handed down its opinion II
was the part Of law-abiding citizen to
accept il.
There will be no change in the atti-
tude of the Department of Justice to-
ward the prosecution of corporations
under the Sherman antitrust law. The
department, it was said, has never at
tempted any actions under the anti
trust law except in cases where an
unreasonable restraint of interstate
commerce was apparent.
The President and his advisers are
firmly of the opinion that yesterday s
decision will not be a hindrance in the
enforcement of the law, and that the
government will still be able to reach
effectively all bad trusts" which are
the only trusts that the administration
has ever had in mind as subjects for
prosecution.
There will be no effort on the part
of the administration to amend the
Sherman antitrust law in any particu-
lar as a result of the Supreme Courts
decision.
La Toilette Reads Message.
Senator La Toilette, the leader Of the
insurgents, who criticises the decision o.
the Supreme Court as an encroachment
upon the Executive Department of the
government pounced upon the Presi-
dents message yesterday, and, rising on
the floor of the Senate. read without
comment several excerpts. Here is one
OF them:
Many people conducting great busi-
nesses have cherished the hope and the
belief that in some way or other a line
may be drawn between good trusts and
bad trusts and that it is possible by
amendment to the antitrust law 10 make
a distinction under which good combina-
tions may be permitted to organize, sup
press competition. and control prices.
and do it all legally. If only they do not
abuse the power by taking too great
profit out of the business
They point with force to certain noto-
rious trusts as having grown in their
power through criminal methods by the
use of illegal rebates and plain cheating.
and by various acts utterly violative of
business honesty or morality, and urge
the establishment of some legal line of
separation by which criminal trusts Of
this kind can be punished, and they, on
the other hand. be permitted. under the
law, to carry on their business.
Now the public. and especially the
business public. ought to rid themselves
of the idea that such a distinction is
practicable or can be introduced into the
statute. Certainly under the present
antitrust law no such distinction exists.
1T has been proposed. however, that
the word reasonable should be made
a part of the statute, and then that il
should be left to the court to say what
is a reasonable restraint of trade, what
