Some Primary Sources if you are doing the carnegie/gates essay

Hey,

I found a few helpful links to the department of justice site and some new york times archives. They can help give you the actual ruling in the US v Microsoft anti-trust case and some eye witness accounts of who shot whom first at the Homestead Strike respectively. The course blog says its okay to post discussions on primary sources so what the hey.

for the final judgement on Microsoft
http://www.justice.gov/atr/cases/ms_index.htm
for everything on the antitrust trial in 98
http://query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=9404EED61538E233A25754C0A9619C94639ED7CF
for an account of a boat captain bringing the Pinkertons to the Homestead Mills
http://query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=9504EED61538E233A25754C0A9619C94639ED7CF
for the accounts of the wounded men and their admittance to respective hospitals


I hope I saved someone hours of pouring through wikipedia trying to find these. If there are better ones out there, I'd be interested in seeing them
