AFTER THE TRUST MAGNATES.
attorney General Wickersham Tells
congress They VIII Be Prosecuted
vigorously.

vigorously.
The recent decisions OF the Supreme
r..nrr in the Standard Oil and Amer
;..n Tobacco Company's cases, will
r-.uir in a sweeping attempt to Sc
orr,. criminal conviction OF violation
oftL,. Antitrust Jaw, according to
Attorney General Wickersham who
annaarpd before the House commit
toe on expenditures in the Depart
mpnt OF Justice. Mr.. Wickersham
was asked why the government thus
far had failed to lodge any trust
maguates" in prison.
I've have done the best we could"
he said, "but there has been an un-
willingness on the part of iuries and
conrts to sentence men to prison un-
der the Antitrust law. Until the
Suprpme Court laid down it's definite
construction in the two cases just
decided, this reluctance was we'll un-
dprstOOd, for the law has always
been open to question, and has
been construed in different ways by
different courts.
"Juries are becoming more willing
now. however, to convict and judges
who have been reluctant to impose
prison penalties now have the Su-
preme Court decisions to sustain
them
Mr.. Wickersham said he believed
prison sentences would be the most
effective means Of enforcing respect
for the Antitrust law. Criminal
prosecutions pending against the
meat packers, milk dealers, grocers,
the naval stores and window-glass
combinations and other alleged vio-
lators of the Antitrust Law, he
said. would be augmented by other
prosecutions. On this subject the
government had definite plans.
representative Beall, of Texas,
chairman of the Investigating Com
mittee, asked why there had been no
criminal proceedings against the
heads Of the Standard Oil and To
baccO corporations.
"In view of the fact that we have
secured decisions in these cases only
within the last two weeks, it seems
to me that question answers itself, y
said Mr.. Wickersham. "Now, how
ever, we have an Interpretation of
the Antitrust Act upon which we
can proceed"
The Attorney-General was closely
questioned by Mr.. Beall as to the
cotton cases in New York, but he re-
fused to disclose the government
future action. Asked why actions
We're not brought against those seek
ing to elevate the price Ofraw cotton
rather than against the spinners and
the bears" who were trying to de-
press it, Mr.. Wickersham said the
government had believed it much
easier to reach the seven men con-
trolling the raw cotton pool, against
whom it had exact information.
THE statute OF limitations has not
run against the others" he added.
If the government is sustained in
this first cotton case, the other com
binatiOns may be attacked -
Has there ever been any inVesti-
CATION of the attempt OF bears to de-
press cotton prices in New York or
New Orleans?" Chairman Beall asked
NO; [ have never had any fact
brought to my attention that SEEM
ed to show violation of the Anti
Trust Laws in such matters"

1t was a half-hour later when the
last one departed from the house.
Haldane was quite aware Of the con.
ditions under which his fortune was
being increased and his power extend
ed. He had been brought in contact
with the naked reality Of the situa.
ton n great many times; but It
seemed to him that never before had
1t presented itself in SO hideous and
unattractive q guise as on that night.
The hnancier was hardened. His con-
science, while keenly alive in other
directions, In matters concerning poll.
tics and the people was scared and
indurated. But what had been said
and what he had discussed that night
had sickened him.
Haldane felt quite lonely, quite old.
as he sat there in the small hours OF
the morning, his cigar gone out,
lnusing over the situation. He pulled
himself together at last. The battle
was not lost. The enemy had not won.
and before that came about there
would be a struggle which would beg
gar description. The cards seemed to
be In his hands. or in the hands Of the
ring of which he was chief No more
players ever sat at a
game than those associated with him.
They ought to win; but would they?
~lIaldane was by no mean certain.

the party In power, and those that
were favorable to the new candidate.
Incidentally, nothing that he could
have said or done could have 80 IN
creased the business OF his store!
His business rivals and associates In.
deed suggested, and the suggestion
was quickly seized upon by the ad-
ministration papers. that the whole
thing was a clever advertising dodge.
and that Gormly was simply using his
candidacy to boom his business. There
was no satisfactory answer to this
argument, which was one Of the best
that could have been devised by the
opposition. and It was harped upon
immensely, although their leader was
vigorously justified from this charge
by his army Of fighters.
The expenses of the campaign were
| enormous. Not n cent was paid out
for bribery or for the purpose OF in
auencing votes in any improper way;
but the hiring OF halls, the payment
of the expenses of meetings. organlza-
ton, transportation, printing. salaries.
and SO on aggregated an extraordinary
sum. Even Gormly himself had not
realized how great these expenses
would be; but he paid them without
blenching. His resources were vast.
He put at the disposal Of his candi.
dacy all the accumulations and earn,
ings of twenty-five years. He saw
that by the time the vote was taken.
his ready money would be expended.
OF course, he would still have his
great business, which would be entire.

OF fortune and position. 1t became IN
a certain sense among a certain set
the fashion to campaign for Gormly.
Automobiles Of all sorts were avail
able for transporting speakers. and
classes and social distinctions were
wiped out in the greater issues in.
volved. BY these methods what was
~picturesouely described In the city pa
pers as a whiriwind campaign was
inaugurated.
II must not be supposed that the
opposition was Idle: by no means.
Never had its activities been SO great,
It's energies SO nanifestly put forth.
1t had welcomed with Joy the news Of
the refusal OF Gormly to become the
candidate Of the minority party. Lif-
fey had at once decided In his own
mind that that settled the issue. Even
farther sighted men like Rutherford
were Of the same opinion. Haldane
alone, the wisest, shrewdest, and
ablest of the group, was not con-
WINGED, and under his vigorous though
secret urgings the ring redoubled its
efforts to beat the man.
At the proper time the proposition
from the party In power to make a
combination with the outs was sprung
upon the public. 1t was hailed on one
side as an evidence Of the fairness
OF the party In power and the Sachem
society. which many people imagined
needed no alliance OF that kind. 1t
was considered as testimony to the
fact that the party In power had moth
ing to conceal, since 1t admitted the
outs to It's councils, and that It was
sincerely DESTROYS of giving New York
a business administration in which all
factions and parties should be repre-
scented. There was truth in the con
tention, too. The only faction or party
that would not be represented by this
alliance would be the common people.
Wiser heads, however, realized that
altruistic methods were inconsistent
entirely with the real spirit OF either
party and saw in the alliance a con-
fession of weakness. And the editorial
contingent of the Gormly papers
seized upon this idea and made the
most of it. In the beginning, CORN.
ly's advertisements, including his po-
litical manifestos. had been printed
in very paper in the city. They were
paid for as other advertisements are
and why not? But the Sachem So
ciety had put the screws on certain
journals which owed much to it's infu-
ence, and because Of this pressure
they had summarily refused any more
Of Gormly's unique proclamations.
They %professed themselves entirely
ready to print his business advertise
ments at the usual rates. Gormly
retaliated. Of course, by Withdrawing
all advertising of any sort from them,
and doubling the space he purchased
in the other papers. Naturally. there
fore, the press divided In two Sec
tions; those that were controlled by
