In view of the administration, the Sherman lew needs no smendlng. Here Is the policy of the admlnistra tlon, which has been formulated after careful' consideration of the -supreme court decision in the Standard Oil and Tobacco Trust oases. In consequence of these two big de cisions the - attorney general regards himself as powerfully equipped now to enforce . the Sherman anti-trust Isw against all and every offender against the law in the nation. As Attorney General Wlckersham In terprets the decision in tbe Tobacco case, and this Is most important since it Is contrary to ths general view that has been taken, the circuit . court for the southern district of New Tork has had the case remanded back to It not for the purpose of devising a means, by which the American Tobacco com pany may continue business, but sole ly to arrive at the most just and expedi tious manner in which the company shall be dissolved. Dissolution is what the supreme court ordered In the view of the at torney general -for the Standard Oil company as well ' as for the .Tobacco Trust. . There Is no other way out, as Mr. Wlckersham reads the decision.
