PRESIDENT AIMS
AT STANDARD OIL
Wants Anti. Trust Legislation That
Will Permit Prosecution OF
That Company.
From The Tribune Bureau. !


Washington. Jan. 15.-Bet~een now and
the adjournment OF Congress the fresi-
dent expects that the Democratic party
will have redeemed most OF the pledges
i'm the Baltimore platform, although ne
indicated to-day that he would not insist
on working Congress overtime to enact
legislation which he does not think ~
urgent.
II Is President wilson's desire that the
antitrust legislation shall be enacted and
rural credit system established by June.
lie is also DESTROYS that the preliminary
steps looking TO Presidential primaries
he taken before adjournment, but he sug-
sested to-day that he would not insist on
tho completion OF the undertaking during
the present session.
President Wilson believes that two and
perhaps three, bills will be necessary 10
carry out his antitrust programme. me
Democratic platform sets forth: 1--WE re-
grct that the Sherman antitrust law has
received n judicial construction depriving
il of much OF its efficacy. and We favor
the enactment OF legislation which Will
restore to the statute the strength or
which il has been deprived by such inter
pretation." The President is not ready 10
say just how the strength VIII be re-
stored. but II is understood That sep
aratc bill will be required.
Another bill having as its main features
the prohibition OF interlocking directo-
rates and holding companies, and third
measure creating an interstate trade COM
mission and defining its duties. will proba-
bly, be the plan finally adopted although
several members Of Congress believe that
all the antitrust legislation can be COM
bined in one bill.
No secret is made of the intent of the
administration TO enact legislation which
can be used as n basis for possible prose-
cution OF the Standard Oil Company as
the Attorney General is convinced that
The dissolution decree of the United States
Supreme Court has not been thoroughly
effective I'm smashing the power OF the
combination.
In response 10 inquiries from Senator
Cummins, Senator Kern said to-day that
the Committee on Privileges and Elec-
tions would take up for consideration
bill providing for Presidential primary
as soon as the controversy arising over
the election Of Blai" Lee to succeed Sena-
tor jackson. OF Maryland, had been dis
posed OF. There are many signs, however,
that the Democratic majority would very
gladly have the Presidential primary en-
JOY an indefinite sleep.
The Presidential primary brings to the
fore the question of negro franchise. II a
law is enacted it will oe difficult for the
Southern States to keep the negro out
of politics Fo. this reason. Southern
Democrats are opposed TO the measure
and threaten to turn against their Demo-
cratic colleagues. Progressive Republi-
cans, however, are determined that the
proposition shall not he lost sight Of

that the system OF federal reserve banks

Albany, Jan. I5.-Attorney General Car

their efforts 10 bring Harry Is. Thaw

was fruitless.
Chandler said New York could have
taken Thaw without process. notifying
Governor Felker OF its rights and asking
him 10 prevent interference. which he
would have done; or the Governor OF
New York could have Informed Governor
Felker Of the facts and that Thaw was
fleeing from the justice Of New YORK

the Constitution of the United States. and
Governor F'eker would have sent him
back promptly"
This course was followed out said
