A NATURAL Gas DeyeIonment IN Chicago

CHICAGO, Jan. 24-Four years ago
natural gas was discovered on the prem
ises of a Chicago manufacturing com
pany. The flow was small at first, but
has increased right along, and has now
become so strong that the company has
put in connections with its boiler fur
naces and will use IL for fuel hereafter.
This is the first instance Of the kind in
Chicago, and the starting up Of the fur
naces Thursday afternoon was quite an
event. 1t is claimed that this is true
natural gas, and probably connected
with the Indiana field.

Is n appeal, which, according to the authorities. acts
as 10 stay Of proceedings II has been suggested that
the Circuit Judge might refuse to entertain frivolous
application but the writ has always been regarded as
ms3cr OF right and the judges naturally hcjltate to
ad3pt such practice. IT, indeed II would remedy the
evil. The failure to listen to tho application might
he taken as denial of the writ which i appealabe.
Tho Judge might perhaps take the papers and reserve
his decision, and allow the execution of the death
sentence TO take place while he held the matter under
advisement. NO Judge, howevec, would be willing to
take 50 great responsibility. and unless some new
method OF overcoming tho difficulty Is suggested, muir
derers may continue TO apply frivolous grounds for
wrts of habeas corpus and as often they refused
may appeal and secure stay. The law cannot be
changed for nearly year, and meanwhile the death
penalty is practically done away with in this state.
