increasing competition in the marketplace.
The Sherman Antitrust Act (1890) made trusts and other restraints of trade illegal, which helped break up monopolies and prevent collusive practices, leading to more competition and lower prices for consumers. (Banning railroad rate discrimination and creating the ICC were functions of the Interstate Commerce Act.)
