Assistant County Attorney ouren Of

found I'm tho Fremont county jail.
Both Mr. Ouren and Mr.. Cnpell feel
that the alleged confession should be
more carefully examined and Mr. Ouren
will so TO Fairfax 10 see Wlldey.
That portion of TierneyB tala that con-
meets two men with tho alleged murder

for II Is certain that Il Fallers was muir
dered and thrown over tho bridge railing
the work was done quickly by more than
ono man.
The two great elements OF improbability
are contained In the statement that the
murdered man w0s robbed OF S2S55 and
his revolver. The cash register showed
that Fallers had collected but S6ij which
he had not put In the drawer. and II was
asserted that ho never carried any

GREAT TRUST CASE is UP

counsel. but. in view OF the magni-

time VS. granted in the tobacco
case.
piled on the bench in front OF the
justices was a formidable array OF
documents. mute evidence of the
complexity of the case. The record
alone fills two full volumes of 300
pages each. Thu governments brief
is spread over 800 closely printed
pages; the two briefs Of the attorneys
for the trust are compressed into two
volumes Of 200 pages each. A copy
TO each of these documents was be-
fore each justice,
The Justices paid the closest at
tentlon to the arguments and made
copious notes as the attorneys pr'
caeded. Occasionally a question from
the bench interrupted the speaker
and some special point was elucidat-
ed.
The case had its inception in a bill
of complaint filed July 10, 1907, be
fore the circuit court of the southern
district of New York. 1t was alleged
he American Tobacco Company
had gradually acquired a monopoly
on the tobacco business Of the
United States by series of bold
bucanBIring had stifled competition,
and defied Independent dealers
through network of subsidiary
companies, operating as separate
concerns, In 1900 the government
asserts that the idea Of controlling
the tobacco industry originated by
the heads of the big manufacturing
firms-James B. and Benjamin N,
Duke, Thomas F. Ryan, Pierre Lor-
lizard, R. L. Patterson, P. A. B. Weld
ener and others. The American To.
bacco company was soon thereafter
formed. Other companies were ac-
quired and subsidiaries organized,
In November, 1901, it is alleged, the
United Cigar Stores company was or
ganized as a retail marketing COM
pany.
Throughout the period of organiza-
tion and growth, 1t is alleged, unfair
methods were used. The organiza-
tion of fake independent concerns,
imitation Of standard brands, manip-
ulation of market and price Juggling
were resorted to.
Tin foil, licorice, boxes and paper
were manufactured by the trust, it is
alleged, in order to give them all abb

Washington. Jan. 6.-Before the
court of last resort today began the
final legal battle for the life OF The
American Tobacco Company and its
subsidiaries. High-priced corpora
tion lawyers matched wits with the
governments trust busters in a
struggle to determine whether the
sherman antitrust law is invalid or
whether it has the power to crush the
tobacco trust.
On the outcome OF the fight de
pends the life or death of the vast
corporation, with an invested capital
of more than S4OO,OOO,OOO, or the
emasculation of the Sherman law
which would nullify the governments
strongest weapon against corporate
aggTssion.
In the small, prim chamber of tie
court, before its nine silk-robed JUS
tices, with an audience made up of
lawyers, the legal Waterloo began
Atttorney-General George +. Wick
ersham and Special Attorney J. C..
Reynolds commanded the forces of
the government.
Attorney-General George F. Wick
William B. Hornblower, represented
the tobacco company. To Johnson,
as chief counsel for the appellant,
fell the duty of making the opening
argument, and his legal defense of
the accused corporation consumed by
far the better part of the day,
This is the second time the story of
the tobacco trust has reached the
high est court in the land. 1t was ar
gued last year, but death and sick
ness so thinned the ranks of the JUS
tees that 1t was decided that rear
gument should be held, so that the
decision, considered by the court as
vnll as the attorney general, one of
the most important the tribunal ever
faced, might be decided before a full
bench.
AS was the case last year when ar
gument was heard before, the court
decided to permit the attorneys three
whole days in which to present their
arguments.
