Government Loses Dissolution Suit Against Steel Co
New York and Trenton reports summarize a New Jersey federal court ruling that refused to dissolve the United States Steel corporation. The decision notes that meetings among steel trade participants formed unlawful combinations, but not to the extent of a dissolution order, and cites Roosevelt era policy on the Tennessee Coal and Iron deal as proper government noninterference. The ruling analyzed corporate market power versus size, and cleared Andrew Carnegie of participating beyond stockholding in the formation of the steel company.

Definite Question Puts Up To Kaiser By Wilson Note

An emissary to Germany will convey the substance of Wilson’s talk and U S public opinion. Bernstorff’s envoy will lay out the situation to Wilhelm and German officials, with safe conduct assured. The move may delay Germany’s reply to the American note and aims to clarify the U S stance.
