TO DEFINE LAWS INTENT
AIM OF COMMITTEE
Anti Trust Legislation to Be
Recommended to the
Senate.

Antitrust legislation of a radical char
acter is to be recommended by the Sen
ate committee on interstate commerce in
a report early next week Amendments
to the present laws will be urged, to take
away from the Supreme Court the dis
cretionary power" 1t now exercises in
administering the Sherman law and to
define clearly certain forms of illegal
combination, so business interests Will
know when they are violating the law.
The report will be the termination of
the trust investigation begun by the COM
mittee in 1911. The decision of the Su-
preme Court that only unreasonable re-
strantS upon trade are in violation of the
law forms the basis for radical sugges-
tons by the committee to protect the anti
trust law against what, it is claimed.
amounts to Legislative action" by the
Supreme Court
To enable business interests clearly to
understand what forms of combinations,
agreements, contracts or pools are illegal,
legislation will be urged to define them
in exact terms. Members of the commit
tee believe this necessary, to protect bust
ness interestsAtha desire to act without
violating the law, but have no legal stand
ard to inform them whether contemplated
actions within the law.
The committee report will not be COM
pleted and given out until next week. 1t
is understood that it recommends the Gre
alton of commission to exercise general
control over corporations doing business
across the state lines, and that it urges
amendments to the Sherman law which
will compel corporations to remain more
independent in character than at present
and that will enforce competitive condi-
tons.

INCOMPETENT WITNESS
Maryland Court of Appeals Re-

Miss Contner.
Special Dispatch TO The Star.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
ANNAPOLIS, Md, February 2l-Hold-
ing that Andrew J. ("Cy") Cummings
was not. as witness, competent to
judge the distance in which the COM
pany's trolley car could be stopped and
that the circuit court for Montgomery
county erred in allowing his testimony
to go before the jury, the court of APP
peals in an opinion filed this morning
reversed the lower court in allowing a
judgment of $1,000 to be entered against
the Capital Traction Company for in
juries received by Miss Zelpha H. Cont
ner. The accident occurred after they
had dined together at the Villa Flora
Club in the District of Columbia the
night of August 10, 1911.
Mr.. Cummings and Miss Contner drove
to the Chevy Chase Circle to take a car
of the Traction company into Washing
ton. Their vehicle was run into as it cross
ed the tracks in front of the car and Miss
Contner received injuries. She sued the
company for $4,000. The jury before
which the case was tried gave her dam
ages for $500 less than this and the
company took an appeal.
Opinion of Court.
The Maryland appellate court in its
opinion holds that the testimony of Mr.
Cummings to which the company eX-
cepted at the time should not have been
admitted, as Mr.. Cummings was not COM
petent to testify on such a point. not
being shown to have any real knowledge
of Whether the car could have been
stopped in time to prevent the accident
Great prejudice was done the case of
the railway" by the admission of his
testimony. The opinion states and de-
clares that the testimony discloses no
evidence of primary negligence, in that
the motormsn was not shown to be in
competent, nor was 1t shown that the
car did not have proper brake appliances
1t is pointed out that the night was a
clear one and that both Mr. Cummings
and Miss Contner were aware of the ap-
proach of the car which collided with
their vehicle.
