the merits OF the case, Attorney
George w. Statham will be unable 10
press his suit against the Gaekwar OF
Baroda whom he accused OF breaking
up his home.

ereign he is exempt from citation.

name the Indian prince as co-respon-
dent in his divorce suit and TO bring
an action for 100000 damages against
him.

while he was here attending the cor
onation festivities.
The divorce suit was allowed to pro-
ceed without any correspondent be-
ing named. Statham is very promi-
nent socially.

REJECTS APPEAL OF
STEAMSHIP TRUST

NEW YORK. Dec. 21.-The full
bench of the United States circuit
court yesterday over-ruled the demur-
rers interposed by the Hamburg Am
erican Steamship Co. and other trans
Atlantic lines. which form the ATTAIN
tic conference" against the govern
ment's suit for their dissolution. The
governments contention Is that the
conference" is, by reason Of an al
legged pooling agreement or passenger
rates, trust in restraint OF trade and
an Injunction Is asked to restrain the
companies from further execution OF
the agreement.

followed closely the petitions In the
tobacco and Standard Oil cases sus-
tanned by the United States supreme
court in the light OF reason" and un-
der the rule OF reason"
Judge Noyes, who read' the opinion,
said the transportation OF passengers
between the United States and Eu-
rope form part OF the commerce OF
the United States with foreign nations
and that congress had the power to
prohibit all contracts, combinations
and conspiracies in restraint OF the
foreign commerce Of the country. He
declared that the agreement between
the companies affects foreign COM
merce because its operation must di-
vert a part thereof from the natural
channels OF free competition into fixed
channels assigned to the parties to
the agreement The different lines, :
the Judge added. obtain not that
which comes to. them from their sep
arate efforts, but prescribed and GER
tain percentages of the traffic"
Judge Noyes said the contention
that the combination was formed in
a foreign country was immaterial, as
IL affected the foreign commerce OF
this country and was put in operation
here. Citizens of foreign countries.
he added, ARE not free TO restrain or
monopolize the foreign commerce OF
this country by entering into COM
binations abroad nor by employing for
eign vessels to effect their purpose.
