 WASHINGTON, D. C., May 2e. - The government today won a most sweeping victory over the so-called Tobacco Trust, when the Supreme Court held the American Tobacco company and its allied corporations, to be operating in violation of the Sherman antitrust law, by directing the combination be forbidden the privileges of interstate commerce or be placed in the hands of a receiver, unless it disintegrates in harmony with the law, within six, or at the most eight, months. The court is re- garded to have dealt with the to- baceo company more drastically than with the Standard Oil company, the dissolution of which it ordered two weeks ago. Both the first and sec ond sections of the Sherman law had been violated by the Tobacco Cor poration, according to the court, and not only /had it restrained wrong fully and illegally interstate com merce, but it attempted to mOnopolize the tobacco business to the injury of the public and its competitors.
 Decree Regarded Severe.
 Chief Justice White $ decree is re- garded as unusually severe, and at the same time there is a touch of leniency in not making the corpora tion an outlaw now. The various elements in the combination are to be given an opportunity for recreation under the supervision of the Federal Court of the northern district of New York, so that there may be brought about 'new condition which shall be honestly iD harmony with and not repugnant to the law"
 The opinion of the Court was Ie- livered by Chief Justice White. The entire court agreed that the tobacco combination had violated the sherman

Rule of Reason Upheld.

The court reiterated its determina- tion to follow the "Rule of reason" in determining what restraint of trade had been violated under the Sherman act. Tonight it is settled that this |" Rule of reason'' will be adhered to until the present personnel of the Supreme Court is changed, or the law amended. In short, the decision is nothing less than the deliberate exem- plifieation of the application of the "Rule of reason to undisputed facts'' From the date of the or ganizatiOn of the first combination the court found there was a purpose to acquire the domination and com bination of the tobacco trade was not by mere exertion of ordinary rights, but by methods devised in order 70 monopolize the trade and drive com petitors out of business. This pur- pose was carried out ruthlessly, ac- eording to the court.
 On practically every point on which the government appealed from the de cision of the lower court it scored a victory. In the first place James B. Duke and twenty-eight other indivii- uals were defendants, held as parties to the unlawful combination, instead of being free and further responsible as directed by the court below. The Imperial Tobacco company, the so- called British trust, as well as the United Cigar Stores company, the re tail branch of the American company,
Weekly journal-miner., 1911-05-31

were held as cO-operatives in the un- lawful combination.
 Unlike the Standard Oil company, the Tobacco eompany's attorneys moved for leave to present a petition for stay to the issuance of the man date of the court for thirty days. The motion was granted and the court then adjourned to next Oc- tober
 Justice Harlan Dissents.
 Associate Justice Harlan gave a vigorous dissent in the tobacco case. Although agreeing that the American Tobacco company and its accessory and subsidiary companies were meaI- bers of an unlawful combination, he protested to. the courts action, first, in sending the case back to the lower court, and second, he reiterated his objections in the Standard Oil case, to the adoption of the rule of reason for aseertaining "good" or "bad" trusts. His opinion was oral.
 History of Case.
 The American Tobacco corporations were made the targe of the second big "trust" prosecution of recent years. The first was the Standard Oil. Be- cause the testimony taken in the tobacco case was not SO extensive as that in the Standard Oil, the two cases were before the Supreme Court for consideration at the same time.
 The attempt of the government to dissolve the Tobacco corporation as violating the Sherman antitrust law took shape in 1907. In that year, a petition was filed in the United States Circuit Court at New York. The government asked that the American Tobacco Company, its of fieers, directors and affiliated cor porations, be prevented and enjoined from restraining and monopolizing commerce in tobacco.
