Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from United States of America, Petitioner, V. Standard Oil Company of New Jersey Et Defendants: Defendants Brief on the Facts It is to show: First. That the government has failed to maintain the affirmative of the issue made by the pleadings, and to prove that the seven individual defendants, as a matter of fact, were, when the Petition was filed, in control and management of and dictated to the other defendants in the Bill in restraining interstate trade or attempting to monopolize any portion of the same in crude petroleum and its products, contrary to the provisions of the Sherman Act. Second. All the evidence in the case merely demonstrates the following: The Rockefellers began in 1862 and within a few years were joined by the other individual defendants engaged in the then new, unique and uncertain petroleum industry. Beginning in, say, 1870, the individual defendants jointly engaged in the oil industry. By their skill, industry and management they greatly enlarged their business, and when the Sherman Act was passed they were the owners of various refineries, producing oil wells and pipe lines, and they were then largely engaged in the interstate and foreign trade in oil. That when the Sherman Act was passed, the defendants were in the ownership and control of a non-competitive group of different parcels of property, such as pipe lines, refineries, producing oil wells, storage tanks and ships, used by them in local and, to some extent, in interstate and foreign trade.
