DECISIS
GREAT INTEREST IS MANIFESTED
IN COMING DECISIONS BY THE
SUPREME COURT AT AN EARLY
DATE—COTTON POOL, ETC.
(By Union Press Association.)
Washington, D. C., Feb. 17.—A sub-
ject of much discussion in Washing-
ton just now is the possible conse-
quence, financial, industrial and po-
litical, of the several important de-
cisions that are expected to be
handed down at an early date by the
supreme eourt of the United States.
The decisions in which most interest
is manifested are those in the cases
of the cotton pool and the anthracite
pool, both of which call for the inter-
pretation of important phases of the
Sherman anti-trust act. A third case
of importance before the court has to
do with the constitutionality of the
initiative and referendum.
The three cases have been before
the highest tribunal since early in
the October term, and the three
weeks’ recess which expired today is
believed to have given the court time
to prepare the lengthy decisions re-
quired. While the court has vouch-
safed no intimation on the subject it
is generally supposed here that one
or more of the decisions may be hand-
ed down when the court reconvenes
Monday, with the others to follow on
the succeeding Mondays.
The greatest interest centers in
the trust c&ses, as throwing further
light on the court’s elaborate inter-
pretations of the anti trust statute
contained’ in the voluminous decisions
on the tobacco and Standard Oil
cases
The suit against the ‘ anthracite
pool was brought in the spring of
1897 and the intervening five years
have been spent in taking testimony
before an examiner and in the hear-
ings in the United States circuit court
at Philadelphia, from which court the
case came to the supreme court. The
defendants in the case include the
three Reading companies. Lehigh
Valley railroad and coal companies,
Delaware, Luckawanna and Western
railroad, Jersey Central Vailroad, Erie
railroad, New York, Susquehanna
and Western railroad and numerous
independent coal companies.
In the original suit the government
contended that all the defendants had
long been parties to a general com-
bination and conspiracy which stifl-
ed competition and obstructed trade
and commerce among the states, in
anthracite coal and . that they
monopolized the trade. The court
was asked to enjoin the defendants
from continuing their alleged combi-
nation in restraint of trade, to enjoin
them from continuing the contract
by which independent companies sold
their coal to the carrying roads for
65 per cent of the price received for
it by the railroads at the water, and
to declare null and void the acquisi-
tion of stock of coal companies by the
large coal carrying roadq.
In the decision of the United States
circuit court that tribunal* adjudged
the Reading company and a number
of railroads through the Temple Iron
Company were in conspiracy and is-
sued the injunction ' sought. The
other charges, involving practically
the whole trade in an enormous com-
bination, were dismissed. Both the
defendants and the government ap-
pealed from this decision to the su-
preme court of the United States,
The cotton pool suit, the second of
the anti-trust cases in which a decis-
ion is expected soon, was brought ‘by
the government against James A.
Patten, Eugene G. Scales, Frank B.
Hayne and William P. Brown.. The
circuit court for the district of South-
ern New York sustained demurrers
to the more important counts, and
the United States sued out a writ of
e-rro-F, The "Sustained demurrers had
to do with The charge that the de-
fendants possessed a controlling pow-
er, enabling them, to charge excess
prices, monopolize the trade, and the
charge that they did create a ‘cotton
corner" on the New York Cotton Ex
change resulting in restraint of in-
terstate trade. The case, has acquired

added interest from the democratic
protests against the government’s
suit against a bulling combination
while transit movements are left un-
molested. ‘
The-battle for the Initiative and
referendum, the - foundation stone of
the Oregon primary system, was
fought out before the court last fall.
The case hangs technically upon a
claim by the state of Oregon to re-
cover $10,000 in license fees from the
Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Com-
pany. The license tax law was en-
acted on a vote of the people un June
4, 1906. The defendant company in
appealing to the supreme court from
the state supreme court, argued that
the Oregon provisiem violates .the fed-
eral constitution’s guarantee of a ‘‘re-
publican form of government.” sub-
•stituting a pure democracy. In view
of the fact that numerous states al-
ready have followed the example of
Oregon>!ji adopting the initiative and
referendum and others are preparing
to do so, the decision in this ease
will have far-reaching consequence.
