the chances are that the gas supply will

ON ONE POINT ONLY.
Gas Decision n Reversal Only as to
Pressure on the Wells.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
KOKOMO, Ind, June 30.-The decision of
the State Supreme Court that artificial
means must not be employed to increase
the flow of natural gas wells has caused
needless alarm throughout the towns Of
the State. according to gas men here. The
impression seems to have been made that
the ruling is complete and conclusive on all
the points at issue, whereas the reversal
is on one point only. that of artificial ap-
pliances in increasing the flow from the gas
wells. The decision as understood here
will not affect the pumping of gas in
transportation from the top of the wells
to the point of consumption Pumps or
at the wells, but are simply used to IA
cilitate the transportation of gas in the
pipe lines.
State Natural Gas Supervisor Leach. of
this city, says of the ruling: LAS I un-

ion has been reversed in part only. In the
case in the lower court a number of man.
ufacturers in the various parts of the field
sought to enjoint the Chicago Pipe Line
Company from taking gas out of the State:
from using artificial methods in increasing
the flow at the wells; from transporting gas

the only point reversed i do not see how it
can interfere with the gas supply of the
