THAT SHERMAN ANTITRUST
LAW is VIOLATED.
A PARTIAL VICTORY WON
ss Per Cent Contract Ruling Favors
v. s.-Aetion In Shutting Out
Competitive Road 10 Con-
demned BY Court.

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE govern.
inent lost its fight before the supreme
court Of the United States to have the
anthracite coal carrying railroads and
their affiliated coal companies de.
tlared to be in general combination
in violation of the Sherman antitrust
law.
It won victory in getting the court
to strike down the 65 per cent con-
tracts whereby the railroad coal com.
panies" buy the output of "indepen-
dent" mines. Justice Lurton, in an.
nouncing the opinion, said these con-
tracts were plainly in violation of the
law.
b., One Violation Cited.
The court also held that the rail.
roads had violated the law by attempt
ing to shut out of the anthracite re.
gion a competitive road, through their
control Of the Temple Iron company.
As to minor combinations of rail-
roads and coal companies, charged to
be violating the law, the court dis
missed the action without prejudice to
future suits, because it held it not fair
to require those groups to make a de-
tense in an action primarily against
a general combination
Justices Day. Hughes and Pitney
took no part in the decision There
were no dissenting opinions.
Combines Are Charged.
The government suit charged that
the principal misunderstanding rail-
roads and their affiliated coal COM
panies, had entered into a general
combination to end competition in the
transportation and sale of anthracite.
Several groups of the defendants were
further charged with small combina-
tions for the same purpose.
AS to the 65 per cent contracts
and agreements whereby the railroad
coal companies were to buy the output
Of Independent operators at IS per
cent of the price of coal at tidewater,
In announcing the opinion Justice
Lurton said that these contracts were
In restraint of trade and illegal. no
matter what the intention with which
they were framed.
The court expressed no opinion as
to the legality of the minor combina-
ton charged, but dismissed the
charges as to them because the goven-
ment had no right to make the small
er groups within the alleged general
combination defend their action in
suit which charged, first of all, gen.
eral combination.
Victory, Says Wickersham.
Attorney General Wickersham de.
clared that the annulment of the 65
per cent contracts is in very impor.
tant victory and that it opens the way
for possible competition in the coal
trade.
This point also is important" said
he, because the court holds that al
though contract may be innocent in
itself. bundle of them may constitute
violation of the law"
