I'nited State- J Ji-t 1 ii-t Attorney Rob
ert iJevlin. who brotight the suit, ua-hx-ated
late la-t night at his residejic
in Jierkeley. In di-cn--ing his aeiion.
hit -aid:
"The complaint tiled yesterday i-again-t
the Utis Klevator Company, and
thirty o!hci defendatHs who are allege,!
to be in on concern and operating
contrary to the piovi-ions of the Sher
man " t. The complaint was drawn up
by me. but i- signe.-j by I'tiited State
Al tot m y ( .etieral .Moody, all -uch ac
tions oi igiiiatiliL' at W'a-hiugtotl.
"The action i- ba-cd upon affidavit-
of men who were fonu-rly in the erim
paiiy ninl who -tale that, while tie
efcmhiiit. to the action are apparently
corporate concciiis, they in reality are
all under control of the Otis Klevatoi
Company. The ell'ect of this pooling of
inteie-t-, i- to enhance prices and re
strict trade with the view to controll
ing all the elevator bu-iness on the Pa
eilie ( oa-t. with the probability that
this i- but. a branch of a gigantic trust
that, eontiols the elevator output nil
over the I nited States.
" Sii'-h a combination i, against the
pi'ovi-ions of the Sherman law and we
believe t.hal we have ample evidence
ag.iin-t, the trust to make out a clear
case when ii coim- to Irial. The alii
davits of the men -et forth in the com
plaint . who-e names I do not know, re
member, are complete and are based
upon pers,,Ma knowledge. A great quan
tity of material of lirius not in the coin-
In lie. has gone to waste, there being no
-,'ilu for it.
"'I his proceeding has been carefully
prepared and will be pn-hed vigorously.
In every pha-e of it thi
lias been consulted and I regard the
case a- dear and strong against all the
