the accused men were not engaged in interstate commerce.
 ',rhe first section of the act, upon which the counts are founded" said he, 'is not confined to voluntary re- straint, as where persons engaged in interstate trade or commerce agree to suppress competition among theIn- selves. but includes as well involun- tary restraints. as where persons not so engaged conspire to compel action by others, or to create artificial con- ditionS, which necessarily impede or burden the due course of such trade or commerce or restrict the common liberty to engage therein"
 The Standard oil case was quoted in support of this doctrine Govern ment officials claim that this lansua ga will materially strengthen their fight against combinations violating the law.

 petition.
 Justice Vandeventer replied to the argument that running a corner sti1n- ulates, instead of restraints fntersta to trade, by saying that this might 1e true for a time. but that the corner was forbidden by the act because it thwarted the usual operation of laws of supply and demand, withdrew the commodity from the normal current of trade, enhanced prices and produced practically the same evils as the sup pression of competition.
 He said that the statute did not ap- ply to corners of purely interstate trade, nor where the effect upon i'm terstate trade was indirect, and added that in the present case, the trade was not interstate. and the effect wRs not indirect.

SUPREME COURT RULES
 AGAINST THE STATES.
Deprives Them of Power Over Rail-
 roads and Express Companies.


 Washington, Jan. e.-The power of the states over railroads and express companies suffered a hard blow today when the supreme court held that since the passage of the Carmacz amendment to the interstate commerce law in 1906 the states had ceased to have power to annul contracts between railroads and shippers limiting the lia- bif1ty for the loss of interstate ship ments.
 Another serious blow was delivered when the court held that the statee, since the passage of the interstate commerce acts, and particularly tho Hepburn law in 1906. had no power to penalize railroads for failure to furnish cars for interstate shipments. In this connection the court declared uncon- stitutional the Minnesota reciprocal demurrage law authorizing the recov cry by shippers of a. dollar a day dur ing which the railroad failed to furnish a car for the movement of freight.
 The changes thus effected revolu- tfonize the practice in many states.
