Fiistice Harla:: ca!d that in the merger of the two roads the stockhold- Aisappeared and reappeared in the securities company, the two thus be- jog practically consolidated in a holding company, the principal object t@ prevent competition. “No scheme or device could certainly more tively come within the prohibition of the anti-Trust law, and it is ‘within the meaning of the act a trust.” 4, Tho case-has attracted more attention than any other sult before the court since the first insular cases were decided and has been regarded by bénch and bar as equal in importance with those cases and with the in- ‘ vahiig tax case. It was argued in December last for two days and attracted general attention at that time as it did previously when the decision was rendered by the Circult Court for the District of Minnesota. ‘vne action was brought in the Circuit Court under the law of Feb, 11 1903, which was for the purpose of expediting the case and was heard by four circuit judges of the elreuit. They united in a decision favorable to the United States and opposed to the contentions of the raflroad companies. ARGUMENT OF THE GOVERNMENT, So Pho sult was instituted by the United States against the Northern Secu- tities Company and the two railtoad companies, the Northern Pacific and the Great Norchern and their leading stockholders, for the purpose of dis- goi¥ing the merger of the two roads, which the United States claimed had been formed by the creation of a holding company, the Securities Company. ‘This consolidaton was claimed to be in violation of the Sherman anti-Trust law. It was claimed on behalf of the Government that this consolidation was inveffect a pool created to promote the interests, not of one system at ‘the expenee of the other, but of both at the expense of the public. The raffroads claimed that the transfer of the stock of the two companies to the Becurifies Company was in the nature of a sale and perfectly legitimate, ‘The contentions of the Securities Company were reviewed, and Justice) » Harlan said they had recetved full attention. He quoted the varfous opin- lons involving the trust question, saying that from them it is to be gathered that all contracts in restraint of trade, reasonable or unreasonable, are pro-j hibited»by the Sherman law, snd that Congress has the power to establish! SUCH régulations as are laid down in that law. Congress had the power to enact the statute. STATE RIGHTS NOT INVOLVED. ‘Replying in detail to the points made for the securities company, Jus- tise Harian said that the contention that the law is an -nterference with the rights of the individual States by which the companies are incorporated ‘Was not well founded. In such cases, he sald, the euthority of Congress is supreme. He also declared it to be unnecessary to determine the right of owners of railroad stock to sell their property, nor was it true that the right of the! Securities company to own and hold railroad stock 1s the only question tn-| volved. Stich contentions are wide of the mark—mere men of straw. All! that the Government complains of is the existence of a corporation to) epress: commerce, and is not concerned with the other points. Justice Harlan said that in this day there snould be no doubt of the edmplete power of Congress to control interstate commerce. All appropri- ate means might be resorted to for that purpose, All the prior trust cases Were in support of that contention. Whether free and unrestrained competition was wise, he sald) was an economic question with which the court need not concern itself, The ques- tlon-was that of statutory law. POWER OF CONGRESS COMPLETE. He avserte! the power of Congress over interstate commerce to he as | Complete as th: ower of a State over domestic commerce. Coming to the plea of the railroads that the Anti-Trust law should be declared unconsti- tutional, he said that the Court conld not see its way to that end. “If the sevurities company’s contentions are sound," he sald, “why may Not all the railroads of the United States enter into a combination and by the device of a holding corporation control rates throughout the country, In defiance of Congress?" iwice> Harlan also took occasion to say that there had been nothing fn aeguirities company’s certificate of incorporation to indicate {ts pur- pose to be'that of destroying commerce, and he therefore absolved the State ot Néw Jersey from any charge of such knowledge in advance. It might be true that a Federal court had no power to dissolve a corporation of a State, but this circumstance could not Be an indication of powerlessness to enforce tho law, than which no corporation is stronger. No device could suffice to prevent this enforcement of the national statutes. . The decree of the Circuit Court, he said, could not have been of snialler scope, and it had in no way exceeded its authority. The law must not be narrowWy construed. The defendants could not complain of the finding of the Circuit Court, and Justice Harlan in conclusion ‘announced the confirmation of the decision of that court, saying “The judgment of this court is that the decree below of the Circuit Court be and is hereby affirmed, with liberty to the Circuit Court to pro- eed in the execution of the decree as the circumstances may require.” The decision is concurred in by Justices Brown, Brewer, McKenna and ’ THE WORLD: MONDAY EVENING, MARCH 14,. 1904.

' Vinol is not only the greatest strength-creator known to medicine, but its healing power is marvelous, and we will explain why: For centuries cod liver oil has been known as the greatest specific for coughs, colds, bron- chial troubles and consumption, but not one person in twenty can take it and get the benefit from it, owing to the vile-tasting, nauseat- ing oil, which invariably upsets the stomach, i Now, Vinol is a cod liver oil preparation that contains every one of the active, curative principles that made cod liver oil famous as a specific for these troubles, but no oil; it is delicious to the taste, and can be retained by the weakest stomach; hence its wonderful power to cure, — VINOL SAVED HER LIFE. Chas..
