Farmers are jubilant over the
advance in the price of cotton.
The thieves are trying their
luck stealing chickens, but so far
only few. have been stolen. A

Failure of an Attempt to Dissolve the
Chicago Gas Trust.

CHICAGO, July 2S.-The attempt to cause
the dissolution of the consolidated gas COM
panies of Chicago to-day resulted in COM
plete rout for the Eastern bondholders of
the Equitable Gas Light and Fuel Com
pany The bill filed by the bondholders
asked the Circuit Court to appoint receiver
for the corporation and incidentally to cut
the ties which bind the seven companies
forming the consolidation. Judge Gibbons
rendered a decision holding that the COM
plainants have no standing in court, refus-
ing the motion to appoint receiver and dis
missing the bill for want of equity. Soon
after Judge Gibbons had rendered his deci-
sion the attorneys representing the bond
holders filed an amendment to the bill of
complaint in which are made charges of
corruption in the Illinois Legislature which
passed the consolidation act. Four of the
companies in the trust-the Peoples, the
Equitable, the Chicago and the Consumers
are accused of appropriat.ng and using $780,
coo toward securing the passage of the bill
The amendment asks that the officers of
these corporations be required to account
for the money thus spent in it, No at
tempt will be made to interfere with the
entry of Judge Gibbons's decree, the amend
ment being filed solely for the purpose of
the proposed appeal to the higher courts.
