HEARING
IN ANTITRUST CASE
TOBE HARD FOUGHT
Justice Department Strongly
Opposed to Judges
Attitude.

A controversy of the utmost import
ance in its bearings on all litigation un-
der the Sherman law, and which Is
likely TO be carried to the Supreme
Court has been stirred UP between the
Department Of Justice and Judge Will
liam H. Putnam, of the United States
district court, at Boston.
Judge putnam is taking the position
that the hearing in the case brought
by the Government for the dissolution
of the Shoe Machinery trust should be
private. District Attorney French, at
Boston, is strenuously objecting to q
private hearing. He Is backed by At
torney General Wickersham, who has
asked that the case be expedited and
heard by three judges.
According to newspaper reports, Judge
Putnam is credited with declaring to
District Attorney French that the
United States ought to be ashamed to
come into court and ask that the hear
ing before the specie examiner for the
taking of testimony be made public"
The Importance of the attitude as
sumed by Judge Putnam Is obvious.
The establishment of precedent of a
private hearing in a Sherman law dis
solution case would mean that private
hearings would be sought in every dis
solution proceeding of importance un-
der the Sherman law. The Standard
Oil Company. the Tobacco trust, or any
other concern would have the same
right to insist on privacy.
The question may become one Of i'm
portance in connection with the pro-
posed revision of the Sherman law by
Congress.

ton lawyer, who Is taking keen in
terest in the situation, and who has
urged important corporation legislation
on Congress, has written to Washing.
