1t is regarded and settled that the
rule of reason will prevail in The
courts of the land in the intesprcta-
ton of the Sherman anti-trus. law at
least until the personnel of the su-
preme court greatly clNlnges or nc
Sherman antitrust law is amended
In reality the decision was nothing
less than deliberate exemplifica. or
of the application of the rule Of .ea-
som to ''undisputcd facts
From the date of the organization
of the first combination the court
found that there was a purpose 10
acquire dominion and con:r0t OF the
tobacco trade. not by the mere eAer-
tion of the ordinary rights to contract
and to trade. but by methods devised
in order to monopolize the trade by
driving competitors out OF business.
This purpose was carried out ruth
lessly, according to the court upon
the assumption that to work upon the
theory or play upon the cupidity of
competitors would make success pos
siblc. Such action viewed in the
light of reason" was regarded by
the court as violate of the law.
On practically every point on which
the government appealed from the de-
cision Of the lower court, it scored a
victory today.
In the first place James b. Duke
and the twenty-eight other individual
defendants were held to Oe parties to
the unlawful combination instead OF
being freed from further responsoili-
ty in the case as directed by the court
below.
Instead of dismissing the bill as to
the Imperial Tobacco company, the
so-called British trust and as to the
British American Tobacco company
the creature of the two parent tobac-
co trust" These two corporations
were held to be co-operators in the
unlawful combination. So, too, was
the United Cigar Stores company, a
retail organization with stores
throughout the country.
The court confessed that great diff
ficulties had been encountered in tho
consideration of the case because OF
the many new aspects of the sherman
antitrust law which it presented. These
difficulties extended to the prepara-
ton of satisfactory decree. In this
connection the codrt expressed itself
as solicitous of procuring remedy
which would be complete and efiica,
cious and yet result in as little injury
as possible, both to the public and 10
private interests involved.
The court believed that putting
the matter in the hands of the lowe'
court for the purpose of working out
method of dissolution and re-crea-
ton with the understanding that un-
less the law was complied with the
must retire from inter-
state commerce or go into the hands
of a receiver was the best solution oi
the problem.
Unlike the Standard Oil company,

NEW REBELLION IN
MEXICO MAY BE USED
F. AGAINST MADERO
Zapata Revolt to Crush Sup
posed Creator. Is
Prediction.

MEXICO CITY. Oct. 2s.-Asserting
that the present revolution under Emil
iano Zapata is fostercd aud financed by
Francisco Madero, president-e of
Mexico, three Mexico city papers today
prophesied that the rebellion would rise
up and overwhelrn its creator, ending
either in the return of Diaz or the plac-
ing Of General Bernard Reyes in the
presidency.
Although the federal troops are to-
day reported as holding their own
against the Zapatistas, now within a
few miles of the capital, there is Il
constantly recurring fear that they may
break through and loot The city. This
fear Is entertained despite the fact
that they are said to have been in
structed bv Madere. who is claimed to
have instigated the rebellion against
the De La Barra government, so that
he might have the glory OF quelling It
when he is Inaugurated on November
:, not to enter the gates of Mexico City.
II Madero really planned the Tapata
rebellion to harrass the provisional
government. his scheme Is succeeding
admirably, as is shown by the resigna-
tioi< Of three OF DE La Barra's cabinnt
on account of their inability to sub6ue
the rebels. Those who have resigned
are Gen. Jose Gonzales Salas, acting
minister Of war; Alberto Garcia, Gran
ados minister of the interior. and Dr.
Francisco !Vasquez Gomez, minister Of
public instruction.

i. cock Expected. !

CHICAGO, Oct 2S.--The corridors of
President Taft's hotel here today pre-
sented the appearance Of the, White
House ante-room with a Cabinet
meeting just going into session.
Before the President leaves Chicago
he will confer with his Cabinet advisers
en- the conduct of the newly filed case
against the Steel trust. From the Pres
ident's utterances on the trust problem
yesterday 1t was apparent there will be
ro laxity on the part of the Government
In prosecuting the case.
Secretary OF War Dickenson, retained
tc assist the Government In It's trust
busting suit against the Steel trust, had
breakfast with the President. and the
two conferred 1T lcngth.
In addition to members Of the Cab
met - Secretaries MacVeagh, Fisher.

torney General Wickersham was eX-
pected, but II he fails to arrive he will
be represented by Mr.. Dickinson. Sec
retary of War Stimson and Postmaster
General Hitchcock may also arrive be-
fore. the President leaves Chicago for
his homeward journey.
The President began a strenuous pro-
gram today, when the Bricvklayers'
Union initiated him into that organiza-
ton. His next function was an address
to the American Mining Congress. He
will speak on the recall of the judiciary
before the Bar Association. a trip to
a new naval training school, and a

GREATER ACTIVITY

UNCLE SANS PLAN
Attorney General Wicker
sham, Backed by Taft,
to Continue Fight.

That the attack Of the Government
on the United States Steel Corporation,
Tor the purpose of forcing it's dissolu-
ton under the Sherman law, is to. be
followed UP by greater activity than
ever against the trusts, Is the informa-
uon that comes from the Department
of Justice.
1t appears that when President Taft
In some OF his speeches has talked
about strict enforcement of the Sher-
man law, he has been talking with spe-
cifc things in mind as to Government
activity against the trusts. .'""*..
Formerly the Department of Justice
went into suits against the great COM
binations with fear and trembling, lest
business disturbance should result. But
now that an attack has been made on
the greatest combination of all, the
ment brief. developed 'community
OF interest and power to influence
action to common purpose never ex-
ceeded in the commercial history of
the world, this situation does not OBJ
tain. ~ -. =.

Attorney General will have much hest
tance. 80.
Attorney General Wickersham, though
he has been widely attacked as a for
mer corporation lawyer, still Is a law
yer who puts up the best fight he
KNOWS how for his client. He Is bent
on making a record for enforcement or
the Sherman law. He is ambitious to
bring about such enforcement of it as
VIII drive all the great combinat tions
which are outside the law into con-
formity with It. =.
Unless he Is called off by the Presi-
dent. there is not the slightest pros
pect OF him letting up. He hopes the
combinations will come in under the
shelter Of the Sherman law voluntarily
II they will not, his purpose is to 20
on fighting.
In the prosecution of the beef pack
ers, of the Lumber trust, the Steel
Corporation, and others of the trusts
II Will be the Wickersham policy to
carry on the war to the limit.
If Mr.. Wickersham can throw a half
dozen or more magnates in Jail, the
better 1t will be in his opinion. He ia
convinced that II this is done, then
respect for the Sherman law will be
entertained and not otherwise.
Under the circumstances Department
Of Justice officials are doubtless correct
when they predict as they do now, that
the coming winter will witness the
utmost activity in trust prosecutions.
That President Taft has stood by the
Attorney General and the officials of
the Department of Justice in their
prosecutions under the Sherman law is
undoubtedly true. The Department of
Justice officials say this and cay they
have no question he will stand.

Convict Wanted for
Alleged SWindles

Having just completed a two years.
term in the Auburn, N. Y, penitentiary.
William Powell. colored. who. with his
have swindled a number Of colored per-
sons in 1908 by what Is known as the
"pocketbook game" will be brought to
Washington for trial. There are three
cases of petit larceny and one of grand
larceny charged against him.
Woods, alias Jonn Scott. was con-
victed or the same charges, and sent
TO the penitentiary for one year and to
:ail for nine months. Following the az
rest of Woods in this city, Powell was
taken in custody in Philadelphia, and
turned over to the New York authoi1-
ties, who wanted his on q charge OF
WORKING q fiIn-fiam game.
According to the police Powell and
Woods are a pair of the cleverest pro-
fessional colored swindlors who ever
operated in Washington. Their scheme.
the police say. was to hang around a
bank until they saw colored person,
whom they believed had drawn some
money, come out Appros ching the
person, they would produce a pocket
book, and ask If he or size had dropped
It. Receiving, negative reply; they
would open the purse and produce u
800 or Sc bill, and offer to divide with
the person if he would say nothing
about the find.
In this manner they would usually
collect all the real money the victim
had, and given in return the pocket
tective O'Dea was In Albany when
Powell was released yesterday, and
had him held in the sum of 1000 for
the Washington authorities.

Big Cotton Crop Is
Predicted in Munsey's

There is every indication that tho
cotton crop of this year will be the
greatest that we have yet produced"
writes Isaac r. Marcosson in an article
why the American Farmer Is Rich" :"
in the Munsey for November. "The
forecasts range from thirteen to four
teen million bales. The best previous
record was that of 1904. when the out
put was lS,700.O00 bales. Should cotton
sell this year at the average price It
brought in 1910, the value OF the crop
would almost be a billion dollars
Should the price recede to the average
figure of the last five years-llh cents
a pound-the cotton producers will still
receive the enormous sum of $500 900, 900
her crops. and when there Is loss on
one there Is usually compensation In
