Tobacco Trust Suit Has
Many Difficult Problems

WASHINGTON, Jan, 2.-ln some
particulars the case against the TO-
bacco trust and that against STANDARD
Oil are so disslmilar tnat the court
might find In favor Of the government
in one case and against IL in the
other.
The two cases are alike in that
they are proceedings in equity TO en-
Join alleged violations Of the law. IN
neither case does the government seek
TO procure either the imprisonment or
individuals or exemplary fines upon
the dependents. In both suits the
charges pressed are those alleging IN
lawful combination and conspiracy in
restraint OF interstate trade and COM
merce. and continuing monopoly, or
attempted monopoly, OF important eie-
ments in interstate commerce.
The Standard OIL Co. Is attacked
as a holding company the Amerl-
can Tobacco Co. as both a holding and
an operating company
In the tobacco trust case II Is al
legged that originally when the merger
was consummated in 1880, there was
monopoly only in the cigaret trade ;
the defendants claim that control of
the business then secured tby the
merger has since materially dwin-
died This Is, however, strongly de-
MED by the prosecution.
60 Companies In Trust.
Another difference lies in the fact
that while the oil trust Is charged
with cffeuse against the Sherman an
thrust law alone, the tobacco trust Is
charged with violating also the Wilson
tariff act OF 1894, which extended the
antitrust law TO any conspiracy II
restraint of trade one party TO which

PHOENIX WILL HAVE

That determined effort l.; to be
made by the business interests Of Phoe

Eddie Doyle, Center street cigar man,

specially. admitted that such a move
ment was on foot. and that il plans
were successfully carried out a late fail
and winter league would be the result.
NO better advertisement for a rap
idly growing city like Phoenix can be
thought of than a winning. high class
baseball team" Doyle declared. I
have been approached on the subject
of raising a fund to secure one of the
eastern minor league teams, or
one of the Pacific coast teams To re
present Phoenix for three months
season, beginning about November or
October first. and playing three
months schedule.
Most of the minor leagues in the
east and south close their seasons by
the first of October. II has been agreed
after five years of observation that il
is far better for professional baseball
in the eastern leagues that the play
ers have an entire let up, say of at
least two months before another season
opens That is why those having the
Arizona league plan in view favor open
ing about October 18th and closing Jan
uary 18TH That of course. would shut
out most of the Pacific Coast league
players at the beginning, for the coast
season does not close until November.
There is no healthier spirit for
city than a sporting spirit, and l speak
in the best sense Of that term. Baseball
is the grandest sport known. 1t IS
the national pastime. With a short
winter season here, Phoenix would be-
come the focus OF hundreds OF thou
sands of fans all over the country. or
course "A first class baseball ground
would be one of the necessities. but
such a property would be a big asset
for the city, inasmuch as ii would at
tract the attention Of big league man
ayers all over the country to Phoenix
as an ideal winter training camp. As a
purely Phoenix advertising scheme it
would richly repay the business inter
ests of the city for every cent it
would cost
Tucson Is just as ideal as Phoenix
for winter baseball. and the same is
true Of Douglas and Yuma. All three
cities are putting forth great efforts to
attract tourists the coming winter, and
the men interested in Phoenix believe
the venture would be almost self sup
porting from the start. 1t would be a
splendid thing If each of the cities
named could secure the champion club
OF one Of four leagues, Pacific, Coast
Eastern, Southern and American as
ISOLATION. and settle for all time the
question as to the superiority of those
big minor organizations. Sue. an ar
ranGement would be a tremendous ad-
vcrtisement for the Arizona cities and
