GAS CONSOLIDATION.
A Big Sum Of Money Offered for
 the Ogden Company.

Chicago, Aug. 19-E. c. Benedict of New York and incidentally of the h. diana National Gas company, over whose contracts with the Peoples Gas company there is considerable friction, Is reported to have made a formal of fer to the Ogden Gas company to buy out their plant for $4000000 The of fer has so far been refused, but a big ger one may be made.
 The Ogden Gas company's franchise gives it the right to furnish the city with gas at a minimum rate of 90 cents a thousand. At present it operates only on the north side of the city, and is III harmony with the so-called ''gas trust.'' The authorized stock of the company is s ,000, ,000, of which none is outstanding being in the hands of trus- Hees. It has no bonds and no divi- dends have been paid.
 Mir. Benedict's new move is reported to have been made with a view to bringing the Peoples Gas company to terms over the Indiana National Gas eompany's contracts. MT. Benedict yas until lately a leading spirit in Chicago gas.
 The Peoples Gas company says the terms demanded for the Indiana Ma sional Gas company for it's plant, fran ebises, etc, are exorbitant. The Ogden ceoDre say their company is not for sale.

A BLUFF AT SUICIDE.
A Late Thrilling Event or East
 Adams Street.

Last night at about 9: 30 while a fam fly On East Adams street was enjoying the evening breezes. an apparition ap- peared in tne yard of an unoccupied house adioiuing and made the startling announcement. T am going to drop. Goodbye foIks' Immediately all eyes were turned toward the place whence the sepulchral sounds issued. and there stood an aggravated case of prickly heat with a small bilious mus taohc and 2 large sized TeUtonic ac cent. The family turned their chairs so as to see the freak, at the same time wondering what it was that was about to drop Again that sonOrOus voice gave forth in aggrieved tones, Well goodbye; I's going to drop right here" :" But again it's effort failed to elicit any applause or comment.
 Then the report of Q pistol rang out on tne night air, and with Q groan re- sembling that which Dante has so TividIy described down came the pricI1ly heat. mustache and accent. all in g heap and the continuous clicking of pistol was heard The family remained unmoved. for by the Hash Of the gun they had seen that it was carefully aimed toward the ham, dle Of the dipper. The groans in creased in intensity, this time accom- panied by sundry kicks. such as are usually induIged in in stage tragedies; then three more shots in rapid sue- session, aimed with all the care that had beer exhibited in the first case. With a howl of rage at the unsyrn- pathetic attitude of the family. the freak broke and ran, scared either by the sound Of it's own gun or the ap- proach of the head of the family, who. realizing it's dire distress. has picked up club and was approaching to help it t1 accomplish what the gun had failed t0 do. It continued to run. however due north. being determined to leave all the cares of this mundane sphere to those who think life worth living, even if it had to climb into the ditch.
