strongly 10 favor of a usw pipe line, as the
only redress for alleged grievous wioogs 10
the matter Of rates for pipsiug oil. many
holding the opinion that Mr.. S,ambaugb's .
charges were pxtortiouate. At the second
meeting their srdor seems to have cooled

both pipe lines made their propositions as to

that ended the play. The whole matter is
