It is not the Civil War General, I am almost positive. The Sherman act was the first practical Anti-Trust act aimed at companies who were monopolizing industries. It was first seriously enacted against Rockefeller and the Standard Oil Trust. The judge involved was none other than Kennesaw Mountain Landis- later to become the Baseball Commissioner. The Clayton anti-trust act is more specific and came out in l9l4, immediately prior to World War I. Both laws are, as far as I know, still in effect. The Phone Company was broken-up into smaller entities well within living memory.
