that?"
"A most exceptional case, a most eX-
ceptional case, If it is true" said Mr..
Nicoll. II am inlined to think that
there has been some mistake"
"Oh, he may have been mistaken" re-
sponded the Chief Justice as he settled
back in his seat and bade the attorney
proceed with his defense of his clients.

Mr.. Justice McKenna, who has rather
a clear, piercing voice. has been un-
usually active as a Questioner of coun-
sci. Mr.. McKenna wanted It all ex-
planned to him when the Government s
attorney. Mr.. Reynolds declared that
the trust could freeze OUT any COM
retitor who did not yield to the gentle
hints of the American Tobacco Com
pany.
'How?' demanded Justice McKenna.
And then Mr.. Reynolds branched off
into the devious ways by which the
Government claims the small man can
be put out of business by the gigantic
trust.
Mr.. Justice Holmes caused a smile
when he made terse comment upon
the habit of snuff using. , 1t happened
this way. Mr.. Nicoll was stressing the
point that not all the concerns bought
by the American Tobacco Company had
been competitors and that competition
is not stified every time the company
purchases new property.
There is no competition for instance" "

Holmes.
1t is seldom that attorneys have been
as attentiveIy heard as those who are
appearing for and against the American
Tobacco Company. AS a general thing,
the attorney is appreciative II he gets
the undivided attention of four or five
members of the bench, and Supreme
Court justices have a habit of absenting
themselves temporarily from the room,
one or two at a time, at the most elo-
Iuent period in some barristers re-
marks.
During the argument of the American
Tobacco Company case, however, the
bench has been full nearly every min
ute of the time, and the court has
evinced the same interest in the argu-
ments as that evinced by the bar and
the audience. which sits as though
enchanted by the somberness of the
courtroom and Its stiffness.

Yin Tang's two pet Boston bull ter
riers.
Preferring the companionship Of the
dogs of the streets and friendly wag
of the tail from a pup in the gutter to
being petted and coddled in fine home
and admired by official Washington, the
harriers ran away from the Chinese
Ieration, Nineteenth and U streets, and
today the Washington police force is
searching the city for them.
Neither wore a tag or muZzle, and for
that reason Poundmaster Samuel Elm
stein, who doesn't know a diplomats

TO look carefully at all Boston terriers
picked up on the streets today before
taking them to the pound.

the majority of the black-robed men

1t is no wonder that the Tobacco trust,
so called, has brought to Washington a
dozen high-paid lawyers and that they
are fighting every contention of the
Government.
A study in itself is the attitude of the
nine men upon whom rests the duty OF
rendering a decision that has so much

Attorney for Rockefeller In
terests Will Offer mot
Guilty" Plea.
VAN DEVANTER WILL
SIT DURING HEARING
Had Previously Presided In Circuit
Court In Decision Against
Company.

The commercial fate of the American
Tobacco Company, with its three-score
subsidiary corporations and $4OO,0O0,0OO OF
capital, now rests with the Supreme
Court of the United States, which heard
the final arraignment OF the so-called
trust" by the Attorney General this
afternoon.
No sooner had Mr. Wickersham COM
pleted his arguments urging the dissolu-
ton of the Tobacco trust, than a SINH
lar case against the Standard Oil Com
pany was called. and the attorneys for
that gigantic corporation moved UP
front and took the seats vacated by
the half dozen or more tobacco COM
pany representatives.
John G. Milburn opened the argument
in support of the contention of the
Standard Oil Company that it is not
guilty of the charge of being a combi-
nation in restraint of trade.
The arguments in this case probably
will extend into next week, six hours
having been allotted each side.
Because of the great value of its hold
ings, it's longer commercial existence,
and its reputation as the father of
trusts" the Standard OIL Company has
even more at stake than has the Amer
lean Tobacco Company in this final ap-
peal to the highest tribunal.
The decision of the court will AFFECT
some of the worlds richest men. The
litigation has perhaps cost the Govern
ment more money than any other trust
busting suit ever waged.
Van Devanter Will Sit.
Additional interest centers in the ar
guments begun today because Of the
fact that MIR. Justice William Van
Devanter, one of the recent appointees
TO the Supreme Bench. participated as a
Judge of the Eighth circuit, in a deci-
sion against the trust. Heretofore a
justice called to sit in an appeal taken
from a lower court of which he vas a
part, has always refrained from partiCi-
patton in such review, but in the case of
Justice Van Devanter 1t was the Presi-
dents desire that he should sit.
Attorney General Wickersham made
an exhaustive argument Yesterday aft
ernoon in the proceedings under the
Sherman law to dissolve the American
Tobacco Company. He had been pre-

ciate we'll what an abundance of wa.
ter means. No water means bar.
rem waste, it's presence. grass, trees,
! fruit. grain comfort for man and
beast.
How proper it is to liken water flow
ing in abundance over the land. to the
flooding Of the world with the gospel
of Jesus Christ. Ezekiel dreamed of
a mighty river and our lesson verses
him that the river flowed out from
the sanctuary of the holy temple at
Jerusalem and wherever it went, life
Isprang up and there was rejoicing. It
is declared, everything shall live
whittier the river cometh."
Presented in this way it will be
seen, how much can be said about this
lesson. All the books of the world
would not suffice to tell in full what
the blessed water Of the religion of
the bible has done in the past. and
what it will do for the future, judged
by the past and the present out
look. The civilization OF England and
America, of which we boast, comes
from the Christian religion. The up
lifting of women the nobility of the
children, both boys and girls; care Of
the sick and unfortunate, the putting
away of cruel, blood-thirsty customs,
the setting up of high standards Of
justice, morality, freedom to individ-
uals, and ten thousand other things
which could be mentioned. all have
come from the spread of the river of
the gospel of Christ.
The history of the world. the story
of the changes which have come from
missionary work, the peace and safety
which we daily enjoy. protected by the
laws Of, the land and not our brute
force and power. all attest that We
owe to the bible and the teachings Of
Jesus Blessed water of life, free to
everyone. let none refuse to drink
|of it and gain the blessed eternal life
promised Viewed from this point of
view the seeming vapory dream of
Ezekiel takes on life and power. and
LEADS us to consider one of the most
important things which the mind of
man can dwell upon.
