Answer:

<h3>Interstate Commerce Act of 1887 .</h3>

Explanation:

Interstate Commerce Act of 1887 was passed by the Congress to regulate and maintain the railroad industry. With growing practices of monopoly by railway corporations in the 19th century, the need to institute an act that would maintain and regulate railway prices and enhance railway competition became inevitable.

Therefore, Interstate Commerce Act of 1887 was passed to regulate railroads to ensure fair rates and reduce monopolistic control of railways by wealthy corporations.

The Interstate Commerce Act of 1887, therefore, established a federal regulatory body called 'the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC)' to monitor and ensure railroads to comply with the new regulations. This act also eventually led to the establishment of many other regulations in the transportation system and commerce in the country.

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

There are enough intent and action to commit a crime.  By burglarizing the store and moving some goods to the rear door, Baker and his co-travellers have established specific intent to commit larceny.

Specific intent requires planning before the time and the predisposition to commit the act.  They have even establish general intent by actually entering the store and cutting through the metal door with an acetylene torch.

Explanation:

Larceny is robbery.  The intent to commit a crime by Baker and his co-travellers is established by their actions at the crime scene.  They cannot be exonerated because they have not yet taken the goods away from the store.  But, it can be established that the intent exists merely by their presence at the crime scene at such an hour of the morning.
