orally and Look Like New.

Extensive improvements are now being
made to the Sunday school rooms Of

went TO her rescue. He reached her
and while struggling to get her into
shallow water she was torn from hin
by the waves. About this time three
life guards came to the rescue. and Out
Of them took care OF Dr. Kelvin. who
lapsed into Inconsistencies. The sir

OIL MAGNATE
IN THE GAS SUIT
II. II. Rogers Under Exami-

RECEIVER PEPPER NOT SCARED.
Although IT is Said the Case May be
Prolonged Until After the Last Day
For the Assents is Passed-Boston
Rumors About Case.

Boston, July 30.-An apparent effort
has been made to keep from public no.
tice the fact that Henry II. Rogers.
the Standard Oil magnate, is now on
the grill in connection with the suits
brought by George Wharton Pepper as
receiver for the Bay state Gas Com
pany. OF Delaware. For obvious rea-
sons, those who had to do with the
buying up OF the Boston gas compan-
les stocks are not counting publicity
just at present, ana Mr.. Rogers has
been undergoing an examination by
counsel for the receiver without the
fact coming conspicuously to the at
tention Of the public
Rogers Retards Proceedings.
Every effort is being made to retard
the proceedings i'm connection with the
suits now pending. apparently In order
that the stockholders. IN deciding
whether they will give their assent TO
the reorganization plan, may be unaf-
fected by any unfayorable outcome.
Whether for this reason or another Mr..
Rogers is not trying TO hurry the hear
ings that are now being held. He has
stood strictly on his legal rights, and
the work of taking his deposition is
consequently slow. He has insisted
that the proceedings shall not be taken
stenographically, but I'm long-hand.
The limit of time is consumed i'm an
swering each question that is put.
Mr.. Rogers is n hard man to get
under examination. Suits in connec-
ton with the Boston as companies
have been brought before now, but
except for some rather harmless ques-
tions that he has answered. he has
given little information.
It is generally believed that in the
matter of the suits now pending th'
best that can be done is to delay pro.
ceedings. 1t is not believed it will b'
found possible 10 stay Mr.. Peppers
hand. The common view of the casi
rs that the receiver Is not in a position
where powerful hnaacial interests cor
affect him. and there is not the slight.
est belief that he can be swerved from
what he holds to be his duty to the
court. That being the case, the onl,
hope for a discrimination Of any o
the suits now pending seems TO lie IL
a reorganization.
Disturbed by Peppers Attitude.
There is little reason to doubt that
the interests that were behind the pur-
chase of the gas companies stocks are
/ decidedly disturbed by the attitude OF
the receiver. Indeed. nothing could
/ indicate this more clearly than the ef.
| feet upon the stock, the decline OF
which has been out of proportion tC
/ the decline of other stocks i'm the re-
/ cent general slump. The view talSer
of the matter is that should Mr.. Pepper
succeed i'm dislodging the stocks Of the
Boston gas companies from the pos
session of those in whose interest
they were bid I'm under the foreclosur
