LAW NOT VIOLATED
BY STEEL COMPANY
DlsSOLUTION OF GIANT CONCERN
REFUSED BY COURT IN Gov
EMINENT SUIT.
Decides Antitrust Act Was Not Vic
lated in Acquiring the Tennessee
Coal and Iron Company Dur
ing the Panic of 1907.

Trenton, y 1.-The United States
district court for New Jersey on
Thursday handed down a unanimous
decision refusing the petition Of the
federal government to dissolve the
United States Steel corporation.
AS against the government, the
court refused 10 dissolve the corpora
ton. holding that in acquiring its for
eign and home trade the concern did
not violate the Sherman antitrust
act. and refused all the injunctions
prayed for by the department OF jus
tice.
AS against the Steel corporation
the court held that the committee
meetings participated in by IS per
cent OF the steel trade O. the country.
including the Steel corporation, sub
sequent to the famous Gary dinners
Of eight OF nine years ago, were IN
lawful combinations to control prices;
but as these meetings had stopped be-
fore the government filed its com
plant in October. 1911. the judges
held that there was no occasion for
an injunction.
The court states that the real test
Of monopoly Is not the size OF that
which is acquired, but the trade power
Of that which is not acquired" IF
mere size we're the test OF monopoly
and trade restraint" the court fur
Their on said, we have not one but
half dozen unlawful monopolies in
the large department stores OF a sin
gle city"
The court found nothing wrong in
the Steel corporation acquiring the
Tennessee Coal and Iron company
during the financial panic OF 1907 and
thus virtually approves the attitude of
the Roosevelt administration in not
interfering with that deal On this
point the ocurt held that the output
OF Tennessee at the time was only II
per cent Of the country's total output;
that up TO that time it had not been
a business success, and that the pur-
chase Of the Tennessee property. as
we'll as that of several other steel
concerns earlier in the history of the
big corporation. was made in fair
business course

THE STORK AND ANNEX
 ATION.

Some people criticize the stork on the ground that he does not attend to his own business, and is frequently found where he is not wanted. However this may be, it must be admitted he is a progressive bird, especially be- lieving in annexation, as his fre- quent visits to Pulaski Heights prove. Indeed, some considera- ble portion of the most law-abid- ing citizenship of the Heights is due to his activity.
 When, not long since, the inn portant old birds intention of visiting the Hamilton home be- came known, a bid was put in for a boy baby. This was done, however, without consulting the stork, or the information would have been forthcoming that the demand for boy babies ip Eu- rope so far exceeds the demand that other nations, including Pulaski Heights, must be con tent with girls. So it happened that when the noble old stork, some time between the hours of midnight and morning of Mon day, visited the Hamilton home, be brought a girl baby named Marie Louise. When the discov- cry was made in the morning, in so far from being disappoint- ed, every one interested was de- lighted-even more so than if the common carrier of infantile surprises had left twin boys, for the new baby is one of the dearest little dolls of baby brought to the Heights this sea- son. Rumor has it that the scheming old bird has several more annexations in mind in the not far distant future in this same neighborhood, and it is said several newlyweds are keep ing their shutters down and doors barred lest this effective apostle of annexation should get a sight of them.

SEPTIC TANK DAYS PAST
Connection With Little Rock System for Territory Within Gravity Reach and North Out let to River for North Side and Hillcrest Suggested.

During the discussion of the question of annexation a great deal has been said about the need for better fire protection, lower insurance rates, increas- ed water facilities, and a greater number of street lights, but very little has been heard about an improved sewerage system.
 The sewerage question is the most important one confronting the people.
 Pulaski Heights is too big to longer depend upon septic tanks and open closets.
 Mayor Taylor said at the For est Park meeting that there was no reason why an ordinance could not be passed by the Little Rock council the same night that annexation is completed, putting in effect all of the inn provements and extensions promised Pulaski Heights.
 At this time-the very night of annexation-it would be most gratifying if an ordinance could be passed forming the necessary improvement districts for the establishment of adequate and permanent sewers for Pulaski Heights.
 That portion of Pulaski Heights south of Prospect ave- nue and east of Cedar street is now connected with the Little Rock system. The territory further westward could be add ed with very little trouble.
 On account of the topographi- cal conditions, the Hillcrest dis trict, which now empties it's sewage into septic tanks situat- ed in the ravines, would no doubt find it's best natural out let through Worthen Bayou, which empties into the river at SaIe distance SOuCn or the ln- take of the water works.
 The Forest Park district no doubt could be provided for by laying a connection southward to the Twelfth street sewer main.
 In this way all of the Heights would be taken care of in a san itary way and the health of the community permanently safe guarded.
 This question of sewers needs agitation. Mayor Bradley says it is the most important problem facing the community because the health of the people depends upon it's proper solution.

Three handsome homes are being erected on May street, north of Prospect avenue, and will be ready for occupancy be- fore Christmas. The owner of one is M. E. Carson, who is con- nected with the Pritchard Lum- Der Go, whose plant is within walking distance. Another is to be occupied by Charles Braun of the Gay Oil Company, the latter being located at 210 North May. The third residence is be- ing built for A. V. Alexander, the land man, whose office is on West Second street, opposite the postoffice. May street is one of the prettiest residence thor oughfares on the Heights, and only high-class homes have been built here. The graceful curves of the boulevard, the at tractive arrangements of the yards and the smooth pavement of streets and sidewalks add much to this cosy corner of the city.
 On Monday of last week, while supervising the unloading of some timber at the Alfrey Heading Plant, on Lincoln ave- nue, J. s. Pool of 315 Ridgeway was struck by one of the logs and suffered a broken leg. He was taken to St. Vincent's In- firmary, where the injured limb was set, and he is now improv- ing, but will necessarily be laid up for some time.
 Just after The Pulaskian went to press last Friday the sad news was received in Pulaski Heights that Sister Mary Paula, one of the teachers at St. Mary's Academy, had died at Hot Springs. The body was brought to Little Rock, and funeral ser vices were held at St. Andrews Cathedral, the requiem high mass being said by the Rev. Fa- ther Boyle. Sister Paula, before taking the VOWS, was a teacher in the public schools, her family name being Margaret Slattery.
