The workings of syndicates or 'trusts.'

Article Abstract:

An article from De Economist in 1901 is reprinted, in which a discussion is presented on media comment on how producers collude to secure exclusive selling rights and higher prices for their products. These "trusts" occur to allow producers to monopolise an industry, and are in the form of either consolidation, or cartels and syndicates.
