H. H. Rogers Answers
Bay State Gas Co.
Says Officials Were Welt Post
ed and It's Own Neglect
If They Failed to Do What They Should
Have Done.

Boston. Oct. 1O.-In an answer filed
in the United States court here, today,
to d bill of complaint brought against
! him by Receiver George w. Pepper Of
the Bay State Gass Co. of Delaware,
Henry II. Rogers of New York, says
that all acts alleged in the plaintiffs
bill to have been done by him in viola
tion OF his duties as trustee Of the Gas
Co., were fully known to the cOmpany's
officials at the time when they were
done and that if the plaintiff or the
Bay State Gas Co. of Delaware ever
had any occasion to complain thereof,
which the defendant denies, they had
been guilty of neglect
The suit is to recover 5000. 600 alleged
to have been received by Mr.. Rogers
while trustee of the Bay State Gas Co.
of Delaware, from the New England
Gas & Coke Co.. also for an accounting
of the loss and injury alleged to have
accrued to the Bay State Gas Co. of
Delaware, OIL account of negligence,
non-feasanca and misfeasance OF II.
II. Rogers as trustee, in selling as al
legged his own interests in the Brook
line & Dorchester Gas Cos. to the New
same time delivered to that company
the management and control Of the
Boston and South Boston, Roxbury
and the Bay State of Massachusetts
Gas Cos.
1t alleges that the 50. 900 600 was re-
ccived in addition to the amount stip-
ulated by Mr.. Rogers for the sale of
his interests in the Dorchester and
Brookline Cos. for delivering the con-
troll Of the other Massachusetts COM
panies. 1t is claimed this s3,0OO.0O0 be-
longs to the Bay State Gas. Co. of Del
aware. under the trust agreement.
Mr.. Rogers enters a general denial
that he received $4,000, 900 or its equiv
alent in any form from the New Eng
land Gas & Coke Co.. above the stip-
ulated price for gas properties trans
ferred to the Gas and Coke Co. He al
son claims that the plaintiffs bill is
defective in that it has not annexed a
copy of an agreement which would
show that the Bay State Gas Co. did
not transfer TO its trustees the control
of the company, which it is claimed.
was shared by the bond holders who
outnumbered the trustees in voting
power.
He also said that six months prior
to the forming Of the trust deed of the
Bay State Gas Co. of Delaware, he
gave an option on gas property which
he controlled to Henry NJ. Whitney
which he believed was assigned to the
Delaware Co. and he prays that the
original option be produced by the
plaintiffs to show the terms thereof.

am As years of age. Have been
a sufferer with chronic headache
ever since l was four years old.
Those who have had severe head
aches can imagine what / have suf-
fered all my life, I have taken all
kinds of treatment but none did
any permanent good. | then decid-
ed to try Osteopathy. l took three
months treatment from DR.. Ray
and now feel that I am we'll. I
have recently been put 10 a severe
test in which was exposed 10
many irregularities, but had no
symptoms Of headache. The treat
ments also cured meof chronic ma

has done for mem what other

there are those who desire to talk
with me on the subject I viii glad
ly tell you personally what has
been done for me. There is no use
for sufferers TO be skeptics on the
subject while SO many in Chicka-
