letter from District Attorney Clarke ex-
planning that a memorandum book had
been found among the effects of " f.
Miller, now under indictment and TO be
tried early in April. which book contained
the names Of the houses subpoenaed: that
il would not be necessary for a member

was asked was that each firm send some
representative to the county court on
April 3 TO testify that Miller had never
had any dealings with the Office.

firms in the memorandum book were used
by Miller TO deceive his customers They

customers room. and that the wires from

No alarm was expressed by the local

Tor that company. We have nothing 10 do
with the means of getting 1t to Chicago.
Efforts to cut Chicago off from the Indiana
supply have been made frequently I'm re-
cent years. Indiana has state law which
permits gas to be pumped out of the State
and another which limits the pressure TO
800 pounds a square inch. IL il be found
that the pressure is excessive believe the
Indiana company can remedy IL by estab-
fishing more pumping stations. The larger
portion of the Chicago supply is received
from Indiana fields. a small portion comes
from Ohio. The use of gas in Chicago has
been increasing rapidly of late and sue
cessful effort on the part of the Indiana
consumers would result I'm great incon-
yenience TO the people of this city"

Overstreet thinks the congressional reap

action will be taken. He thinks it likely
that an effort TO reduce the representation

long debate that will prevent final action.
