The govern ment today lost Its fight before the Supreme court of the United States to have the anthracite coal carrying railroads and the affiliated coal com panies declared to be in a general combination in violation of the Sher man anti-trust law." It won a victory in getting the court to strike down the 65 per cent con tracts whereby the "railroad coal companies" buy the output of "inde pendent mines. Justice Lurton in announcing the opinion said these contracts were plainly in violation of the law. The court also held that the rail roads had violated the law by - at tempting to shut out of the anthracite region a competitive road through their control of the Temple Iron com pany. As to minor combinations cf rail roads and coal companies charged to be violating the law the court dis missed the action without prejudice to future suits, because it held it not fair to require those groups to make defense In an action , primarily against a "general combination. Justices day, Hughes and Pitney took no part In the decision. There were no dissenting opinions. Attor ney General Wlckersham declared that the annulment of the 65 per cent contracts was a very important vie tory and that it opened the way for possible competition in the coal trade. 'This point la also important," said he, "because the court holds that al though a contract may be Innocent In itself, a bundle of them may constl tute a violation of the law."
