Washington. May 17. ? Govern mental Washington in al Hta branftb m ? legislative, executive ?nd Judi cial ? gave over the greater part of today to a discussion of the Supreme Court'? disposition of the 8tpndard Oil Caae. * While there was much gratifica tion In administration circles ore? the order for the dissolution of the giant corporation, which had been declareed "an unreasonable" combi nation and monopoly in restraint of trsde, there unquestionably was al so some misgivings bb to the Inter pretation of the anti-trust law giv ing to the courts the right to deter mine whether or not a mononpoly was "reasonable" monopoly not to be. in contravention of the atatute. President Taft, who, a little more than a year ago, in a special message to Congresa, declared that under the Supreme Court precedenta there could be no auch things aa "reason able" and "unreasonable" restraints of trade ? or In other words "good trusts" and "bad truata" ? waa aald today to have been rather keenly dis appointed that the court should have aeen fit to reverae itself in the Im portant matter. President Taft'a mesa age waa free ly quoted about the capital today and the eeamnlgly similarity of his views as to the scope of the antl truat law to the view expressed by Associate Justice Harlan in his dis senting opinion of yesterday attract ed renewed attention to Justice Har lan!* position as outlined in his state ment to the court Justice Harlan held that his broth er Judges had no right to ursurp the function of the legislative branch or the government by writing Into the statute a differentiation between "reasonable" and "unreasonable." He declared that congress had re sisted all appeals to so amend the act, and that there was every rea son to believe that such an amend ment never could be put through the legislative branch. Under these rlrcumtsances and In their extrem ity, great aggregations of wealth ap plied to the court In an effort to LT "J - ! " TOimeira SUEUR TRUST Many Members Wish to Speak on the Statehood Bill No AtUmift WUl ba Made to Limit the Debate oa the Statehood BUI And it ta Taking Mont Time Thaa First Thought?- Other Mtmmmrc* of htemi Washington, May 17. ? The delate in the house on the ^olnt statehood resolution to admit Arizona and New Mexico continued today with the prospect that the discussion probably would not be terminated before to morrow night. There was much in formal discussion before the debate began, by democrats, over the rules committee's action, moving the adop tion of the sugar trust resolution of inquiry and nominating a special committee. The house adjourned yesterday while the democrats were fighting on this questlra, many de manding a caucus to select this com mittee. The democratic leaders who hoped to dispose of the statehood bill in tw0 days were surprised to learn to day that many on both sides wished to speak. No attempt has been made to limit the debate. The democratic members of the ways and means committee resumed consideration of the wool schedule of the tariff bill. The committee members were giv en long lists of figures bearing on Im portations and revenues derived from that source afons. Justice Harlan declined to be a party to auch a reversal and hence hla dissenting opinion. He denounc ed as "the -moat-alarmiug *endet?cv of the day" Men of power, he said, always were trying to get the courta to do what Congress would not. Prealdent Haft In hla special mes sage to Congreaa of January 7, 1910, urging a Federal Incorporation act, declared that to put the word "rea aonable" Into the anti-trust statute and thus leave It for the courta to aay what was a reasonable reatraint of trade, would be to put into the hands of the courta "a power Impos sible to exerciae on any conalatent principle which would lnaure the un iformity of decision essential to good judgment." "It la to throw upon the courta." he added, "a burden that they have no precedent* to enabel them to carry and to give them a power ap proaching the arbitrary, the abuse of which might involve our judicial | syttem In disaster." As to the dostrine of "good trusta" and "bad trusts'* which the i/ajority opinion of the court, aa expressed by Chief Justice White seems to have laid down, Prealdent Taft, In hla message written more than a year ago, aald: "The public, and eapeclally the business public, ought to rid them selves of the idea that auch a dis tinction la practicable or can be In troduced Into the statute. Certain ly, under the present antl-truat law, no auch JKttlnctlon exists." Relying upon the former opinion of the Supreme Court In the so-call ed trans-Mlsslourl and Joint traffic cases, the President aald: "The Supreme Court, in Its sever al decisions, has declined to read In to the statute the word 'unreasona ble' before 'restraint of trade.' on the ground that the statute applies to all restraints and does not intend to leave to the court the discretion or determine what la a reasonable restraint." The awrarent reveraal in the Stand ard Oil cases of the court's decis ions on these former occasions form ed the basis of much of the dlscls cusslon and speculation indulged in here today. Although the Pre*l dentt'a ideas as to tKe "rule of rea son" se*m to be divergent from thoae of the majority opinion and to coincide more closely with the dis senting views of Justice Harlan, Mr. Taft waa quoted by callers today aa saying: "I defer to the declalon of the 8up rente Court; I am willing to take my lew from it." Generally speaking, emocratic Senators and Representativea today frankly eapreaaad /their disappoint ment aa to the "rule of reason" fea ture of the decision.
