CABINET CONSIDERS SUBJECT
Future Policy Of Dealing With Trusts
Discussed.

Washington, May 1.-THE govern.
ment's policy in dealing with trusts
and combinations of capital, as it
must be shaped in the light. of the
supreme courts decision in the Stand
ard Oil case, was discussed by Pres
ident Taft and his cabinet. M
Undoubtedly the action Of the court
in recognizing and legalizing "a rea-
sonable restraint" of interstate com.
merce, opens a new field of litigation
in: the governments war upon monopo.
lies, and the future policy of this and
other administrations may hang much
upon that point.
President Taft has declined to ex-
press any opinion until he could go
over the courts finding with Attorney
General Wickersham. 1Git-r 1Fs /

Full Opinion Must Be Thoroughly d.

eided on-Presidente Taft and HE
Cabinet Discuss Future Policy Of
the Administration Toward Trusts.
New York, May 1.-THE first word
from the Standard Oil company on
the decision against it Of the United
States supreme court has been an
nounced. It makes two points clear:
First, that there will be no con-
tumacy by the company-it purposes
to obey the decree; and, second, that
it will be some time before any plans
Of reorganization r given out.
The company has insisted through
out that no plans had been formulat-
ed in advance of the decision and the
statement made by Mortimer F. Ell:
lott, general solicitor for the com.
pany, takes the. same attitude. He
said: s-es -.4-*.ea ,rr+sf
Having only before us the press re-
ports of Chief Justice Whites oral
opinion and the remarks of Justice
Harlan and not having yet seer the
opinion of the court in full, it is i'm.
possible to make any lengthy state
ment. The full opinion must be read
and studied by my associates and my.
self before it can be intelligeatly dealt
with. t liz. @-. ia
"It-may, however, be now said that
the Standard Oil company will obey
the decree of the court, and that all
the companies embraced in the courts
decree will carry on their business as
usual under the direction of their own
officers and through their OWL corpo-
rate organizations"
' William Rockefeller Silent.
William Rockefeller, one of the vice
presidents of the Standard Oil com
pany, said regarding the decision:
cat this time l cannot say a thing
about the decision. The company will
make a statement through Mr.. Elliott
after the decision has been read in
every particular. All we can do is to
hope that the decision is for the best.
After all the Standard Oil case was
only one of the things affecting gen.
eral business conditions unfavorably."
A conference of directors and Off
GERS Of the company was held at its
Offices, attended by John G. Milburn,
special counsel, but no statement fur
Their than that made by William
Rockefeller was forthcoming.
Among those who attended were
John d. A-chbold, H. c. Folger,. Jr., ].
A. Moffatt, Walter Jennings, A. G. Bed
ford, Charles A.. Pratt and y. Z. Bed

come down from his country place.

Standard Oil was a bad trust. The
fate Of the so called tobacco trust is
hanging in the balance. Whether it
is a "good"-o or a "bad" trust probably
will be decided on May %, the last de.
cision day of the present term of
court.

Though surrounded by all these lit

renowned for her silence, and though
she was gifted with foresight and

world, she never revealed the secrets
which fate, with kind hand, hid from

To time and experience the White
Lady left the harsh duty OF dragging
from youths hopes the veil of illusion.

Little Donald Pickett Dead

Word was flashed over the wire
last Tuesday night from Denver
to the effect that little Donald
Pickett. age 9 years. son of Mr.,
and Mrs. X l.. Pickett, had died
from an operation for appendicitis
and that the remains would arrive
on train 10 on Thursday. which
they did.
Mr.. Pickett had been notified
Oh Monday that an operation was
about to be performed on the boy,
end he took the next train to see
that everything possible in the
domain of medical skill WAS done,
but to no purpose,
A tear will come over many an
eve and down the cheek the tears
will flow like rain when this little
item has been read. for Donald
Pickett was as flower, admired
and loved by all with whom he
came in contact.
The grief-stricken parents have
the sympathy Of the entire com
munity in the loss of their loved
one. but their loss is His gain.

Once year the goddess tsok out
her sacred car, and mounting 1t, went
along the Milky Way. As she drove
over the lands. all the coldness Of win.
ter passed away and spring awoke In
| all its gladness. The lesfisss trees
shook out their tiny. buds: tho flowers
raised their heads and smiled. Birds
began to twitter ON the bouEhs and
the rabbits began to run about. Then,
too. little children came from their
homes and played In the sunshine, and
Easter. looking down, smiled to see
the earth glad with the same life that
filled her cave IN the misty noun
| tains.
One time the car OF the White Lady
was damaged She told wheelwriKht
to repair 1t. and for payment said he
should keep the chips The man was
indignant, not knowing who the god
dess was. and kept but a few pieces
What was his amAxement ON the NOR

gold But the pieces that he had dis
carded he could not mad So he
learned wisdom from his folly, A. per-
haps we all must learn
AS long as the goddess was duly
honored she remained in her home,
blessing the people But once. 1t is
recorded. she left her cave, her infant
train dragging her plow, and took up
her abode in a distant land Then
sorrow and mourning spread among
the people. and in pity. the goddess
returned and restored her past favor
and benefits. So the land was glad
dened once more.
In different countries this goddess
was known by diRsreat names. and
though her occupation was the same,
its form was som etimes slightly al.
tered. But in all lands, at her aI,
proach, earth was gaddsned, warr1ors
laid down their arms. and peace and
goodwill reigned On earth.

GEORGETOWN and Auburn.

The announcement in the Sunday
evening edition of The Times that
Auburn, representative of the best in
football in the far South. is anxious to
arrange a game with Georgetown for
next Thanksgiving Day, met with
hearty approval by Georgetown men.
Because Of the absence from the city
of Blue and Gray gridiron officials, who
are home for the holidays. II is impos-
sible to obtain a statement as to the
exact status of affairs, but the i'm
preston is that there will be no objec-
ton providing that proper financial ar
rangements can be perfected.
The trip from Alabama would be quite
an undertaking, but the Auburn people
are so enthusiastic over the idea OF
meeting q team from another section
that they are willing to make any rea-
sonable concessions. II the negotia-
tions with Georgetown fail, Auburn viii
probably go over into Texas to play
the team representing that State univer-
sity.
Such a game as the one proposed for
Georgetown Field next Thanksgiving
Day would afford Georgetown an excel
lent opportunity to spread its fame and
reputation and would furnish some truly
high class football regardless Of which
team might be the destined winner. The
whole matter seems to hinge on the
question of financial agreements, but for
the sake of spreading the popularity
of the strenuous sport II is to be hoped
that nothing will be allowed to inter
fere with the plans to bring Georgetown
and Auburn together next fall.
There is a little more room on the
water wagon Of 1911 than there was yes
terday morning and by the end of the
week there will be even more space to
accommodate late comers.
