Attorney-General, Would E!e
vate Dignity of Bureau
of Corporations.
TRUSTS BEING PROSECUTED
Eight Civil Suits and Eight Criminal
Prosecutions Concluded in Past
Year Forty-Six Rebate Ac
tions Instituted.
WASHINGTON. Deo. 14. Attorney
General Wlckersham suggests In hi
annual report, sent to Congress today,
that tha Bureau of Corporations
might well be "availed of as tha
nucleus for an administrative board
under whose supervision consolidation
or mergers for lawful purposes might
be formed.
In enforcing the Sherman anti-trust
law, the Attorney-General points out.
the Department of Justice and th
courts are confronted by economic.
rather than legal, problems when
comes to working out methods of dls
Integration after a corporation has
been declared an Illegal combination.
The department enlisted the assistance
of the Bureau of Corporations in the
dissolution of the tobacco trust, and
It would be of great value to the legal
branch of the Government. Wlckersham
says. If the functions of the 'bureau
should be so enlarged that It could be
called upon officially to make lnvestl
gatlons and report Its conclusions with
respect to plans for th voluntary or
enforced disintegration of monopolistic
combinations.
Haay Antl-Truet Salts Pending.
In a comprehensive review of the
anti-trust prosecutions, the Attorney-
General shows that the 17 anti-trust
civil suits pending at the beginning of
the last fiscal year were augmented by
many additional actions, while tha 11
criminal prosecutions under the same
statute were Increased by 23 more
prosecutions during the last fiscal year.
Eight civil suits and a similar num
ber of criminal trials were brought to
conclusion daring the year. In four
of the civil prosecutions Judgments
were rendered In favor of the United
States, while three were lost and one
was discontinued. Four convictions
were secured under the criminal clause
of the statute during the year and four
cases were either quashed or discontin
ued.
Declaring he appreciates that publlo
Interest In the Sherman anti-trust law
was "even greater" than it waa at the
date of hla last report, the Attorney-
General sets forth the following cases
as being prosecuted or as pending for
final settlement:
The Powder Trust, the night-rider
cases, the United States Steel Corpora'
tlon. cotton corner, alleged towing mo
nopoly, beef packers. Southern Patlflo
merger, bituminous - coal combination.
naval stores suit. Bathtub Trust, Lum
ber Trust. Milk Trust, wall-paper com
bination. Sugar Trust, trans-Atlantic
steamship pool. Magazine Trust. Shoe
Machinery Trust, combination of coal
roads, elevator suit in Oklahoma and
Kindling Wood Trust.
Tobacco Plan Upheld aa Right.
Emphasising his satisfaction with the
decree of the New Tork Circuit Court
In the Tobacco Trust dissolution, the
Attorney-General has this to say of In
dependent tobacco interests who have
criticised th plan of disintegration:
Competitors of the existing combin
ation were eager to compel the Imposi
tion of terms or conditions of the dls-
ntegratlon which would have made a
solvent, successful business readjust
ment impossible, would have brought
about a receivership of the property
and forced Judicial sales, resulting In
great financial loss not only to those
nterested In the combination, but to
the business interests of the country
at large, and In the end would have
benefited only the very Individuals who
bad been dominant In the formation
of the combination, as they are pos
sessed of means ample enough to prof-
by the ruin which would have fol
lowed. In my opinion, the plan which
as been approved by the court will
accomplish the objects of the law."
Forty-six prosecutions for Illegal
discriminations and rebates were In-
tltuted against railroads during the
ear. The Attorney-General urges the
amendment of the It-hour law govern-
ng the railroad transportation of live-
tock by Imposing an Imprisonment
penalty for Its violation.
"Wklte Slave Law Eaforeed.
The white slave traffic act, now a
ear and a hall old. la having a Salu
tary effect. In the Judgment of Mr.
Wlckersham. The statute was dili
gently enforced throughout the coun
try, he avers, .with most satisfactory
results. On hundred and forty-five
prosecutions were had. resulting in 70
convictions, 14 acquittals and 10 were
nolle prossed or otherwise discontinued.
Forty-five cases are pending: Sentenoea
Imposed ranged from a few months In
Jail to 10 years In the penitentiary.
Mr. Wlckersham recommends that
the right be given the Federal Govern
ment to bring an action against an
Individual or corporation In any part
of the country without restriction as
to the place of resldenre of the In
dividual or the home state of the cor
poration. The Attorney-General also recom
mends a ge..eral Immunity statute, nu
merous law lor Alaska and a civil
aervlce retirement law.
He reviews the census frauds and
the convictions obtained, and adds:
