TOBACCO LOSES
FAMOUS COMBINATION FOUND TO
BE IN VIOLATION OF THE
SHERMAN LAW.
GOVERNMENT WINS SUIT
Lower Courts Ordered to Consider
Methods of Dissolving the Com
bination Within Six Months—
English Corporations Involved.
Washington, D. C. The American
Tobacco company, and its associated
accessory and subordinate corpora
tions and companies, including the
English corporation, were held by the
supreme court of the United States to
be co-operators in a combination il
legal under the Sherman anti-trust
act. The court decided as follows:
That the combination in and of it
self, as much as each and all of the
elements composing it, whether con
sidered collectively oi seperately, be
decreed to be in restraint of trade and
an attempt to monopolize and a mon
opolization within the first and second
sections of the anti-trust act.
The court sent the case back to the
lower court with directions to hear
further the parties so as to ascertain
whether a new condition cannot be re
created in harmony with the law.
Justice Harlan concurred in part with
the court's opinion and dissented In
part.
Second, that the court below, in of
de* to give effective force to our de
cree in this regard, be directed to hear
the parties, by evidence or otherwise
as It may be deemed proper for the
purpose of ascertaining and determin
ing upon some plan or method of dis
solving the combination and of recre
ating, out of the elements now com
posing it, a new condition which shall
be honestly in harmony with and not
repugnant to the law.
Third, that for the accomplishment
of these purposes, taking in view the
difficulty of the situation, a period of
six months is allowed from the receipt
of our mandate, with leave, however,
in the event in the judgment of the
court below, the necessities of the sit
uation require to extend such period to
a further time not to excoed sixty
days.
Fourth, that in the event before the
expiration of the period thus fixed a
condition of disintegration in harmony
with the law is not brought out, either
ao the consequence of the action of the
court in determining an issue on the
subject or on accepting a plan agreed
upon, it shall be the duty of the court,
either by way of an injunction re
straining the movement of the prod
ucts of the combination in the chan
nels of interstate or foreign commerce
or by the appointment of a receiver, to
give effect to the requirements of the
statute.
Pending the bringing about of the
result, directed against the court each
and all of the defendants, individuals
as well as corporations, are to be re
strained from doing any act which
might further extend or enlarge the
power of the combination, by any
means or device whatsoever.

EXPLOSION IN MANAGUA
FORTIFICATIONS BLOW UP AND
SOLDIERS ARE KILLED.
Presidential Palace Is Damaged and
Rumors of Plot Fill the Air.—
Soldiers Smoke Cigaret*
Managua, Nica.—One hundred and
fifty soldiers were killed and the presi
dential palace and other buildings
were damaged when Las Lomas, the
fortifications overlooking the capital,
were blown up.
The wildest excitement prevails.
Rumors everywhere are of a Liberal
ist plot, aimed probably at the presi
dential palace. Chances are even,
however, that the explosion was
caused by carelessness. The soldiers
of the garrison are notoriously fool
hardy, and have been known on many
occasions to smoke cigarets within the
Magazine.
Las Lomas is a hill which is ths
highest point of ground in the neigh
borhood of the city. The fortifications
there command the city, although they
were of meagre proportions. A great
trench surrounding the summit of the
hill, barracks, a magazine, arsenal, a
manufactory for cartridges, and a few
small pieces of artillery comprised the
entire equipment. The plant was gar
risoned with about 200 soldiers. They
were under the command of a brother
of Luis Mena. Luis Jlena is secretary
of war under the present regime, and
the real power in the land, since the
disestablishment of President Estrada
and assumption of Adolfo Diaz.
The hill is directly south of the city,
and about a mile and a half from the
lake. The presidential palace is the
first structure between the garrison
and the town, and is just beneath the
shelter of its guns. About 15,000
rifles and a large quantity of powder
were kept in the magazine.
The nation is undergoing one of its
frequent throes, the Liberalists, who
are in the majority, having been oust
ed from power, and the Conservatives
taken the saddle. The question of
church and state is the moving mo
tive, the Liberals declaring for reli
gious toleration and divorce of the
civil and ecclesiastical functions of
government.
HARROUN WINS RACE.
Marmon Car Victorious in Indianapolii
Contest.
Indianapolis, Indiana. For fame,
fortune and the glory of the automo
bile one life was sacrificed and several
men were injured in the first 500-mile
race on a speedway, the greatest test
of skill and endurance in the history
of the sport of motor racing, won by
Ray Harroun, driving a Marmon car,
in 6 hours 41 minutes and 8 seconds.
Closely pressing Harroun for the vic
tory were Ralph Mulford, with a Lo
zier, who finished second, a^nd David
Bruce-Brown, who drove his Fiat un
der the wire a good third.
At the end of the first 150 miles
automobile race, one mechanician had
been killed and a driver perhaps fatal
ly Injured four of the forty ears lliat
started had been withdrawn because
of broken parts, and David Bruce
Brown, driving a Fiat, was leading a
long grind that promised to contipue
to the end.
S. P. Dickson, mechanician for Ar
thur Grelner of Chicago, driving an
Amplex car, lost his life in an upset
on the back stretch in the thirtieth
mile of the race. Greiner suffered sev
eral broken ribs and perhaps a concus
sion of the brain. Surgeons at the
field hospital would not make a-state
ment as to the probable outcome of
his injuries.
The accident was due to the car cast
inga front tire. Greiner could not hold
the car to the track and it skidded to
the infield and whirled completely
around, tearing off both back wheels.
Dickson was thrown twenty feet
against the fence. His body was ter
ribly mangled. Greiner was hurled
to the track.

BIG SUM SAID TO BE SOUGHT FOR
REVISION OF WESTERN
RAILROAD MAP.
G.N. ISSUES $600,000,000
Extension of C., B. & Q. and Great
Northern to 'Frisco—Deal Ap
proaches Magnitude of North
ern Securities Merger.
St. Paul, Minn.—With the issue of
$600,000,000
of Great Northern rail
road bonds plans for a gigantic rail
road deal, engineered by James J.
Hill, were revealed.
It means, declare those who are in
touch with the immense transaction,
the assumption by the Great Northern
of control over a big part of the Chi
cago, Burlington & Quincy system,
construction of a Burlington extension
from Denver southeast to San Fran
cisco, divorce of the Great Northern
from the Northern Pacific in the north
and a new northern coast line for the
Great Northern from the Twin Cities
to San Francisco. This latter addition
to the Great Northern service would
be brought about by the extension of
the Oregon Trunk line, already a
Great Northern line, from Bend, Ore.,
to the Golden Gate by way of Sacra
mento, and the taking over of the Se
attle, Portland & Spokane road.
Longest Road in World.
The primary cause of the immense
railroad deal, which will give the
Great Northern more miles oi track
age than any other railroad In the
world, is said to be the failure of the
Hill interests to control the Northern
Pacific on which the Great Northern
was forced to depend for a portion of
its north line coast journey. Some
thing like half the $600,000,000, it is
understood, is to be spent in this
northern country. Already 150 miles
of construction work from the Colum
bia river on to Bend, Ore., has been
completed on the Oregon short line.
This line, together with the Seattle,
Portland and Spokane, would give the
Great Northern its long cherished
route right into 'Frisco through the
northern states. To get control of
the Burlington for its southern route,
it is said authoritatively, that the Hill
interests got many millions in Bur
lington refund bonds where they
wanted them.
Recalls Northern Securities.
Following is the account of the
bond issue as carried by the Associat
ed Press:
"A move that is strongly suggestive
hffrtf of railroad operations on the
scale of the Northern Securities com
pany was announced by J. J. Hill,
chairman of the Great Northern Rail
way company, today when in a type
written statement he announced the
execution of an $800,000,000 first and
refunding mortgage to secure bonds
lor the Great Northern and Chicago,
Burlington and Quincy railroads. The
statement fallows:
'The Great Northern Railway com
pany, as of date May, 1, 1911, has
executed its first and refunding mort
gage, securing a total authorized is
sue of $600,000,000 bonds.
"The size of the mortgage is ex
plained by the fact that the outstand
ing obligations of the company which
are to be refunded amount, approxi
mately, to $330,000,000. Included, how
ever, in the figures last named is the
direct and contingent obligation of the
company on the Burlington joint four
maturing in 1921 and aggregating
$222,400,000.
"Covering a future of fifty years,
approximatedly $270,000,000 in bonds,
therefore, will be available for gen
eral corporate purposes, double-track
ing and additional mileage. Since
its beginning, thirty-two years ago,
the Great Northern has expended be
tween $350,000,000 and $400,000,000
out of capital and earnings. The pro
vision made for the future in consider
ation of the rapidly growing territory
which Great Northern lines serve,
would seem intelligently conservative.
In no other part of the country has
nature more generously bestowed
those three great sources of all na
tional wealth—the farm, the forest
and the mine—and nowhere else is
there more room for such develop
ment as follows the occupation of a
new country by an intelligent popu
lation."

tower, 256 feet from the ground, and
up the flagstaff, fixed the stars and
stripes so that they blew out straight
in the breeze, and then feel to instant
death.
Five thousand people, including Gov
ernor McGovern, lined up for the start
of the Decoration Day parade, saw the
daring man make the ascent, adjust
the flag, the folds of which had been
caught in a guy rope and then saw him
slide down the rope to a little platform.
Here he missed his footing, fell be
tween two planks, was seen to catch
himself, hold on desperately with Ms
hands and swing his feet in an attempt
to reach a girder. Then his body
came whirling through 256 feet of
space to the concrete foundation. He
leaves a wife and three little children.

Before an audience
Democracy of the Nor.
of three Democratic campaigns, his
voice possessing the inspiring music
of old, his eye bright and his enthusi
asm as keen as before, held his audi
ence late in the night and compelled
attention and interest by the sheer
power of eloquence.
Exerting the magnetism of the great
orator, and combining with it a voice
of exquisite timber, Colonel Bryan
spoke to meet the interruption of ap
plause only and held his audience as
though he had been the first speaker
instead of the last on a long and some
what tedious program.
Leaders in Evidence.
And Colonel Bryan was not among
ordinary speakers. The toastmaster,
Martin J. Wade, is a speaker of ua
usual eloquence and of ready wit.
Governor Burke has been three times
elected governor of his state as the
result of his eloquence and address.
Congressman Hammond is a speaker
of more than ordinary ability and
spoke on a subject which had about
it more than ordinary interest. Jos
eph W. Folk, expounding the Demo
cratic doctrine of the elimination of
protection, is a man of wide reputa
tion and there attaches to him the
added interest of his well-known and
acknowledged candidacy for the presi
dency. In F. A. O'Connor, the young
Democratic leader from Iowa, the au
dience had a speaker who spoke with
fire and purpose. Yet among them
all, Bryan was easily the master.
The Democratic dinner, advertised
as a harmony affair designed merely
for the purpose of gathering North
western Democrats, had appeared an
aimless function. The only definite
movement developed during the day
was that in the interest of Governor
John Burke, which expended itself in
a meeting in the afternoon on the root
garden on the Saint Paul hotel and
had the nomination of John Burke
for president as its ostensible aim.
This was one of the incidents of the
day, but above all this was the domi
nating presence of Bryan. Where
Bryan was, there was the center of
attraction. When, accompanied by
Governor Burke, Congressman Ham
mond and Judge Wade, he left in an
automobile for Minneapolis to visit
John Lind, the Democrats watched
him depart. Later in the afternoon,
when he appeared in the lobby of the
Saint Paul hotel, admirers thronged
about him and shook his hand, while
the famous Bryan smile worked over
time. And at the Democratic dinner
it was the same program over again
and at every move of the Democratic
meeting Bryan held the spotlight.
Congressman W. S. Hammond was
in evdence but put a damper on the
boom started for him for governor
by giving out an interview in which
he said he was not a candidate for
anything but thought he wbuld be a
candidate for re-election to congress.
"To Be or Not to Be."
In his utterances, he was cryptic
and non-committal. No one knows
any more than before, whether or not
Bryan will be a candidate again for
the presidency, whether he will sup
port Wilson, Joseph Folk or some
other man.
Hammond Hits Bryan.
Congressman Hammond also paiu
his respects in a subtle and indirect
way to Colonel Bryan's strictures of
the Democratic ways and means com
mittee, of which Mr. Hammond is a
member, for not putting wool on the
free list, by entering a defense for
the position of the house ways and
means committee, saying it was fol
lowing out the direction of the last
Democratic national platform which
Mr. Bryan is supposed to have dic
tated over the long distance phone
from his home in Lincoln.
