Dispute between, two Massachusetts companies over the right to build a bridge across the Charles river between Boston and Cambridge. The first company would have a charter from the state to operate a toll bridge and be a monopoly . While the other company applied to legislature for authorization to construct another bridge that would be toll free, and reduce the value of the first company's charter. Andrew Jackson opposed and so did Roger Taney since it would restrict classes to improve their economic well being and be unfair
