Atlanta May 1.-Tbe Supreme Court to-day banded down one of tho moat far reaching decisions in ito history, when lt held that under the common law there was a remedy against trusts. The eise was that of the Jacobs' Phar macy against the Atlanta Retail Drug gists' association, Jacobs obargitg that because he sold at out prices other drug gists had conspired against bim to pro vont him from purchasing goods. The case was won by Jacobs in the lower court, and when appealed in the supreme court the same decision was made. The supreme court held that the Geor gia anti-trust law passed in 1806 was un constitutional, but said that, under tho common law, suoh conspiracies and trusts that prevented competition were illegal and contrary to publio policy. The druggists who were fighting Jacobs were enjoined from doing so further. Jacobs' attorneys will now push the suit for damages for $50,000, whioh is now pending. Tbl!
