that a fund Of $4,000 should be as
surred for the first years work. These

ing was to be found in the organization
of these corporations, but the orderly,
natural and legitimate development of
a great business. They said the ac-
QUESTIONS had been proper and that no
intent to restraint trade or monopolize
trade had prompted the creation Of
In addition, il was charged that the
American Tobacco company acquired
control of the United Cigar stores
company, which conducts retail stores
I'm large cities, and thereby was seek
ing dominion I'm the retail business. an
avenue absolutely necessary to elfec-
tive competition.
The tobacco organization was charg-
ed with having a monopoly of the lie

IRE of tobacco, the MacAndrews &
Forbes company, organized by the
Continental having no competitor it
was said:
1t was also said that the defendants
had monopoly in the tin foil business,
the Conley Foil company, Of which the
American Tobacco company held a
majority of the stock, producing 70
per cent of the tin foil manufactured
in this country. Both the licoricc and
the foil monopolies were said to have
been obtained In violation of the Sher-
man antitrust low.
Another phase OF the litigation con-
cerned the foreign trade. The petit

big trust prosecution of recent years
The first was the Standard oil. Be
cause the testimony taken in the to-
bacco case was not so extensive as
that i'm 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
violation the Sherman antitrust law
took shape in 1907; In that year, a pc
tition was filed i'm the United States
Circuit Court at New York. The gov
eminent asked that the American To-
bacco company, its officers, directors
and affiliated corporations, be prevent
ed and enjoined from restraining and
monopolizing commerce in tobacco.
The restraints and the monopolies
alleged by the government, were said
to have been obtained by an intricate
system of corporation organization. IL
began in 1890, when the first American
Tobacco company was organized. The
new company took over the business
of five independent cigarette concerns.
In 1898, the Continental Tobacco
company was Incorporated to take over
the plug-tobacco business Of the Am
erican Tobacco company and that Of
five Independent plug manufacturers.
In 1900 the American Snuff COM
pany was Incorporated 20 take over the
snuff business of the American Tobac-
co company, OF the Continental To-
bacco company, and of two other in
dependent manufacturers.
In 1901, the American Cigar company
was incorporated To take over the bus
mess Of the American Tobacco COM
pany and other manufacturers and
sellers of cigars, cheroots and stogies
In the same year, the Consolidated
Tobacco company was incorporated to
take over in exchange for its bonds
substantially all of the stock of the
American Tobacco company and the
Continental Tobacco company.
In 1908, the American Stogie com
pany was incorporated to take over the
stogie business of the American Cigar
company, the American Tobacco COM
pany. and the Continental Tobacco
company.
In 1904, the American Tobacco com
pany. the Continental Tobacco COM
pany, and the Consolidated Tobacco
company were merged into the present
American Tobacco company.
Claim OF Government.
The government claimed that all
these organizations were created with
the definite purpose to destroy compe-

purpose. Each step was attacked as
