Answer 1

The Supreme Court case that dissolved the monopoly controlling the railroad lines from Chicago to the Pacific Northwest is Northern Securities Co. v. United States. This case, decided in 1904, ruled against the Northern Securities Company, which had formed a monopoly over several railroad companies, thus restoring competition in the railroad industry.
