DECISION DISAPPOINTING.
Question of "Reasonableness" Spoils
Effect.
vv ,.!,;, ...!. in Mnv 17.- Ciovernment-
, ,
hI Washington - legislative, executive
and ju.liciul - gave over the greater
part of today to a discussion of the
Supreme court decision in the Standard
Oil case. While there was gratifica
tion in administration circles over the
order for the dissolution of the cor-
IK.ration. which has been declared an
unreasonable" combination ami mon
opoly in restraint of trade, there un
questionably was misgiving as io i.ic
f the Hnti-trust law
lllli ' M V - -
giving to courts tho right to determine
whether a monopoly was reasonaoie
and declaring a "reasonable" mono
poly not to be in contravention oi me
statute.
President Taft. who, a little more
ik.n a ra:.r him. in a special message
to congress, said that under Supreme
court precedents mere couiu n
such things as "reasonable" and "un-
-,r.,.hu" r..utrints of trade, or in
other words, "good trusts" and "bad
trusts," was said to have been rather
disappointed that the court should
have seen fit to reverse itself in this
important matter.
CRUISER REFUSED COAL.
U. S.
S. Buffalo, With Empty Bunk
ers, Asks in Vain.
rvinlnvn Alaska. Mav 17. Her coal
bunkers all but empty and the nearest
coaling station, Sitka, 1,000 miles
away, the United States cruiser Buf
falo was refused fuel today by Gen
eral Agent Barry of the Copper Kiver
& Northwestern railroad.
Seemingly adding irony to the cruis
er's plight, the great Bering river coal
fields are situated only 30 miles from
the warship's anchorage, but the coal
cannot be touched until the Supreme
court gives its decision next fall.
Private individuals claim title to these
fields.
Captain Stone, commander of the
cruiser, made application for part of
the cargo of the Btearner Edith, which
is discharging 3,000 tons of Canadian
coal for the Copper River & North
western railroad, but General Agent
Barry, of the railroad, refused to sell
any coal to the. Buffalo, giving as a
reason the fact that the railroad had
cabled rush orders for this coal, hav
ing learned of impending labor trou
bles in the mines at Nanaimo.
Captain Stone, greatly surprised,
made inquiry concerning the amount
of coal at. Valdez and Seward, and
found the supply there meagre. The
nearest large coal pile is at Sitka,
1,000 miles distant, and the cruiser, it
is said, has not coal enough for power
U) steam to that port.
Taft Greets Southern Warriors.
Little Rock, Ark. - Dixie melodies
sung by choirs from all parts of the
South overshadowed routine business
at the first session of the United Con
federate Veterans' reunion here. It
is declared there are more old Dixie
warriors gathered for this reunion
than have been assembled since the
conflict between the states. General
Gordon announced that a telgram of
greeting had been received from Pres
ident Taft. It is the first message of
this sort to be sent to a Confederate
reunion by a Republican president.
Nurse Gets Big Fortune.

nurse, who acted as his housekeeper
for the last 12 years of his life. She

trust, a house in Montclair, N. J., and
