The Supreme Court ruled in 1904 that the Northern Securities Company was a "combination in restraint of trade" during the case Northern Securities Co. v. United States. This landmark decision enforced the Sherman Antitrust Act by dissolving the company due to its monopolistic practices concerning railroad operations. The ruling underscored the government's intent to regulate and maintain competition in the marketplace.
