Kenyon's Drastic Bill.

A general antitrust law, more strin-
gent than the Sherman enactment and
designed to put behind prison bars the
big ones In illegal trusts has been
framed and presented to Congress by
Senator Kenyon, erstwhile government
"trust-buster' and a wiseacre so far as
the impunity lodges of the magnates are
concerned. One Of the drastic paragraphs
of the proposed Kenyon law declares
that the purchase of any stock in cor
poration engaged in interstate commerce
by another corporation engaged in inter-
state commerce doing competitive or
similar business when such purchase
would result in destroying competition in
whole or in part between said corpora
lions so engaged in interstate commerce
shall constitute a misdemeanor. and II
such stock shall be bought, taken or
placed in any other name than that of
the corporation the person In whose
name it is so taken shall be guilty of
misdemeanor and on conviction thereof
every person so convicted OF INSIDE
meanor, as provided in this section. shall
be punished by Imprisonment for a term
not exceeding one year and every corpor-
alton so convicted shall be punished by
fine not exceeding $1,000 1t is also pro-
posed to wipe out the reasonable test
for contracts or combinations in restraint
of trade. Forfeiture of patent rights
held by persons found guilty of any vio-
lation of the act is to be further PEN
atty.
Stringent requirements regarding the is
suance of bills Of lading by transporta-
ton companies is proposed in bill
which Senator Clapp of Minnesota has
introduced. If one of the forms of bills
of lading, as specifically set forth in the
proposed law, is given by a transporta-
ton company before the receipt of the
whole of the property into its control. the
transportation company is estopped, as
against the consignee or other person re-
ceiving the bill in good faith. from deny
ing the receipt of the property. And
when the bill Of lading is not required to
be surrendered, upon delivery of the prop
erty, the transportation company is es-
topped as against any person acquiring
the bill of iading in good faith, from as
sorting that the property has been de-
livered.
Senator Williams of Mississippi has
bill to limit the powers and capitalization
of corporations. 1t would require a COM
pany engaged in interstate business to be
incorporated in the state in which its
chief executive Offices or business is To-
Gated, to have only such powers as are
incidental to the business in which Ii is
authorized to be engaged. (which shall
