NATURAL GAS FAILING.
Many Ohio Towns Having Trouble
Over The Fuel Question.

A large number Of the natural gas towns
in Ohio are having trouble over the fuel
question. At Lima the Natural Gas Com
pany served notice that gas would not be
furnished to factories after November I. At
Tifin manufacturers have been notified chat
at the expiration Of present contracts they
would be required to use metre and pay SIX
cents Der thousand for gas. At East Liver
pool the pottries can no longer depend on
gas, and are returning to coal; while at
Dayton gas is to be furnished only to privars
consumers, and, unless greater supply can
be found by drilling in new wells, the
price will be increased twenty-five per cent.
The pressure at the wells which supply the
points named is said to be decreasing. Costly
litigation over franchises and grants Is like.
ly to result both in Dayton and Tifhn.
