ANTI-TRUST ACT.

1. Application of Combinations prohibited by.

The Anti-Trust Act of July 2, 1890, 26 Stat. 209, has a broader application

than the prohibition of restraints of trade unlawful at common law.
It prohibits any combination which essentially obstructs the free flow
of commerce between the States, or restricts, in that regard, the liberty
of a trader to engage in business; and this includes restraints of trade
aimed at compelling third parties and strangers involuntarily not to
engage in the course of interstate trade except on conditions that the
combination imposes. Loewe v. Lawlor, 274.

2. Combinations in restraint of trade within meaning of.

A combination may be in restraint of interstate trade and within the mean-
ing of the Anti-Trust Act although the persons exercising the restraint
may not themselves be engaged in intrastate trade, and some of the
means employed may be acts within a State and individually beyond
the scope of Federal authority, and operate to destroy intrastate trade
as interstate trade, but the acts must be considered as a whole, and
if the purposes are to prevent interstate transportation the plan is open
to condemnation under the Anti-Trust Act of July 2, 1890. (Swift v.
United States, 196 U. S. 375.) Ib.

3. Labor organizations as combinations within meaning of—Right of one in-
jured by boycott to maintain action under § 7 of act.

A combination of labor organizations and the members thereof, to compel
a manufacturer whose goods are almost entirely sold in other States,
to unionize his shops and on his refusal so to do to boycott his goods
and prevent their sale in States other than his own until such time as
the resulting damage forces him to comply with their demands, is,
under the conditions of this case, a combination in restraint of inter-
state trade or commerce within the meaning of the Anti-Trust Act
of July 2, 1890, and the manufacturer may maintain an action for
threefold damages under § 7 of that act. Ib.

4. Organizations of farmers and laborers not exempted.

The Anti-Trust Act of July 2, 1890, makes no distinction between classes.
Organizations of farmers and laborers were not exempted from its
operation, notwithstanding the efforts which the records of Congress
show were made in that direction. Ib.

APPEAL AND ERROR.

1. Writ of error; sufficiency of signing under § 999, Rev. Stat.-Presiding
justice in absence of chief justice.

Where a judge of the highest court of a State, in allowing a writ of error,
adds to his signature "Presiding Judge, etc., in the absence of the chief
judge from the State;" that recital is prima facie evidence that the
chief judge is absent and the judge signing is presiding, and, if not
controverted, the writ of error is properly allowed and the require-
ment of § 999, Rev. Stat., that it must be allowed either by the Chief
Justice of the state court or a justice of this court, is complied with.

Wrich, 250.
