WATCH CASE COMPANY
IS NOT A BAD TRUST
COURT HELD IT is NOT A COMB.
NATION IN DEFIANCE OF
ANTITRUST LAWS.

Philadelphia, Jan. 1.-THE United
States district court decided today
the keystone Watch Case Company is
not a combination in violation of the
federal antitrust law, but declared
its alleged policy of boycotting is a
direct violation of the law and should
be enjoined. The Keystone Watch
Case Company controls large per
centage of the filled watch case bus
mess of the country.
After it was organized the Key
stone Company absorbed several
large watch case manufacturing con-
Germs in various parts of the coun-
try and also took over the company
which makes the Howard watch. The
court in its decision stated that there
was nothing unlawful in the opera
ton of the Keystone company and
that it had not acquired plants by
improper methods.
The court declared, however. it
found evidences that. the company
showed "a definite purpose to re-
strain trade by attempting to fix and
maintain prices by using a species of
boycott or black listing in order to
lessen trade of its rivals
With regard to the Howard watch
the court declared that owing to GER
tain patent rights the Keystone Com,
pany had the right to make an agree
ment with jobbers where by a mini
mum price was fixed at which the
jobber might sell but it had no right
to control the retailer'S nrice.

barefooted, had peculiar shaped foot
and his tracks were easily identified
and followed. Even the boat. which

FEARED EXPOSURE.
The primary motive Of the murder
according 20 the reported confession
u Mitchell, was the fear Of exposure
on the part Of the Roberts brothers.
Some months ago they are alleged q
have stolen and killed some hogs be-
longing 70 Mr.. Wyman. The latter
was searching for the hogs in the
woods when he cmgne urox die Rof

alleged 20 have threatened 10 kill Mr.
Weyman az that time, and then
warned him that n the matter was re-
ported or they ever heard Of him
talking Of the theft he would be-
killed.
Recently il became known IN the
neighbcrhood that the Roberts had
been found with the hogsl In their
possession and fearing arrest and
prosecution they decided TO commit
murder, and accordingly went 10 the
home IN the dead Of the Night, Ar
ing a shot through the window, which
ended the life Of the 8G-year-old man.
The aged woman leapad from her
bed, and Il II claimed waa running
from the room when one Of the party
caught her, holding her while another
placed the gun at her head and blew
out her brains.
The house was then ranRnciOed and

as a small amount Of money taken.
The four then left the scene and TAX
ing 4 boat went down the stream for
considerable distance, setting the
boat adrift when they had finished
with II.
Mitchell, Il IL said, has admitted
bis part in the double murder, but
says all he obtained from the loci
was $500.
