PIPE LINES DELAYED.
Kansas Natural Gas Company Is Slow
i'm Starting.

Independence, Kan, Aug. 30.-The
Kansas Natural Gas company is slow
to get its pipe lines started toward
Kansas City, Joplin and elsewhere it
purposes to deliver cheap gas. but it
continues to bring in new gas wells and
to buy additional leases. Originally this
company was the New York Gas COM
pany," organized by r. NJ. Snyder and
largely owned by r, A Long. During
Snyder's management the company
bought many leases in Montgomery
county, and before the transfer was
made to the Kansas Natural Gas COM
pany ne bought in some good wells, both
gas and oil.
The most important of his purchases
in the county was the gas right of 90.
900 acres held by the Independence
Consolidated Gas. Oil and Manufactur-
ing company. For these holdings he
paid $3.50, 900. The contract was that
$125, 900 should be paid when the sell
ing company could show daily flow of
10 million cubic feet and the remainder
soon thereafter
The Consolidated easily turned on the
stipulated as million feet and empha-
sized it by as many millions more. Mr..
Snyder and his associates paid the first
installment and soon afterward trans
ferred the New York Gas company to
the Kansas Natural, which has paid
the remainder. The Kansas Natural
takes over only the gas rights and by
the terms of the leases becomes the
owner by paying the actual cost of
drilling and casing of all gas wells
brought in by sub-lessees who by the
contracts own only the oil rights of the
lands. The oil producers are weekly
bringing in new gas wells, and the
Kansas Natural has suspended drilling
on any of the Consolidated's group of
leases. By this policy the Kansas Nat.
ural takes no chances whatever of pay
ing for dry holes" One we'll obtained
in this way measures % million cubic
feet a day. 1t accidentally caught fire
the day it was brought in and the
flame was so strong and the heat so
intense that it was two weeks before
means of extinguishing it could be de-
vised. 1t is said that the gas wells of
the Consolidated's leases alone will flow
200 million cubic feet a day. In addition
the Kansas Natural has good wells at
Troy, Caney and Cherryvale. The COM
pany also has leases in the Indian Ter |
ritory. 1t is said that the holdings of
Colonel James O'Neill in Neosho county |
really belong to the Kansas Natural. If |
this is true the Kansas Natural has on |

hole, flow of 300 or 400 million feet of

PUTS HOUSE. IN DOUBT.
New York Herald Says Democrat
Chances Are Good.

New York, Aug. 30.-fThere is a
rather strong possibility that the cleo
ton returns on the night of Nov. s
will show a Democratic house of rep
resentatives for the Fifty-n1nth con-
gress," according to an article printed
in the Herald
Under peculiar conditions, which
are prevailing in various parts of the
country" the article continues, "it is
possible for the Republicans to elect
their national ticket and still lose the
house by large majority.
Put briefly, the situation is that
the Democrats have rather the best
of it at the outset of the campaign
There are 3S6 members of the house
of representatives. In the present
house there are 208 Republicans, 172
Democrats, Union Labor Democrats
and four vacancies. The Republicans
thus have a majority of "a.
Investigation shows that in the
United States there are 159 districts
that can be counted safely Democratic.
There are 156 districts than can be
counted safely Republican. There are
severty-cne doubtful districts which
may be carried by either side, and
in these the great battle for the con-
troll of the house of representatives
must be fought. A majority of the
house of representatives is 1874. In
order to obtain this bare majority it is
necessary for the Democrats to carry
of the seventy-one doubtful
districts. 1t is necessary for the Re
publicans to carry thfrty-eight of
them.
These doubtful districts are now
represented in congress as follows:

eerned. I doubt whether it would be Of
any advantage 1t would to a great ex-
tent be a dry sewer. There is only one
water main, 1 think, in the territory
covered by the sewer. 1t would be i'm
possible to put in flushing tanks at the
ends of the laterals, and the sewer
would be dry and might breed contag-
ion and sickness"
The question has been raised in regard
TO the right of the city to increase its
bonded debt to a sufficient amount to pay
for the construction of the Second ward
sewer at this time When this matter was
presented to City Attorney. Spencer he
held that bonds issued to build sewers 90
bonds are merely guaranteed by the city
at large; they are paid by the people who
live in the sewer district. The city does
not have to help pay them and therefore
Mr. Spencer holds that they are not real
ly part of the city debt. As a general
proposition the city can not issue bonds
to more than 10 per cent of its assessed
valuation, and it has outstanding $525. 600
In city bonds and 1861. 900 in improvement
bonds. which would make the city even at
the present time just at the limit of its
legal issue. 1t could not issue even
enough bonds to pay for the proposed
Fifth and Sixth ward sewers.
The fact that the city guarantees the
sewer bonds might be construed by some
to make these bonds part of the city's
liabilities, in which case it might be diff
ficult to sell enough bonds at present to
build the proposed Second ward sewer,
which would involve a very large issue.

AT PORT ARTHUR.
{ Continued from Pace one.l

Daylight found the belligerents in
tnat quarter engaged in an artillery
| duel General Gorbatowsky person
| ally directed the Russian fire although
he had been six days and six nights
without sleep. The fort suffered con-
siderably from the Japanese artillery
and General Gorbatowsky ordered the
garrison into unchanged trenches
The next glimpse the Russians had
of the Japanese was at 10 O'Clock on
the morning of August "a, when
mounted battery of mules was seen
in motion. The Russians opened fire
on this battery and dispersed it. At
noon of the oath two Japanese col
umnS were observed, one behind Su-
gar Head hill and the other near the
railroad bridge, but they retired when
on them.
At o'clock in the afternoon of the
oath the Japanese began a heavy bonn
bardment of the Russian position with
their one hundred and twenty milli-
metre guns, and at the same time
japanese column of infantry and cav
airy appeared at Palichuang. At 6
o'clock that afternoon the Japanese
furiously attacked the entire north
eastern front of the Russian defenses,
but they were compelled to retire with
considerable loss
The foregoing is an account of the
battle mentioned in these dispatches
as having occurred on August 20,
whether the fighting which presum-
ably did. occur on the Gath was sep
arate attack of whether the Chinese
who reported the occurrence were in
accurate in tn cir dates can not be de-
termined.
The night of August "a was quiet.
On the morning of the 25th the Jap
anese artillery opened up along the en-
tire eastern front, but most severely
on the northern section.
During the night of the 25th Cap
tain Stempneffsky, with small force,
made a Sortie and attempted to dis |
perse the battery located on Corner
HilI' but without success. This sorue |
was made from High Hill" The
Novokrai adds that the japanese
We're building trenches in front of the
hills from Corner Hill'' to High
HILL" but it does not mention the re-
treat of the Russians from the latter
place. The Japanese have about 80
guns some of them mounted in stone
Chinese houses and others in the foot
hills along the beach.
In the vicinity of Louisa Bay, north
west of Port Arthur. the Japanese
have 200 guns concealed in corn
field.

at Keiths hospital when he repaired
a broken jaw bone by means of a
rubber cast which fits over the teeth.
d. z. Vanderheydon, of 100 Monroe
street, was taken to the hospital with
his right jaw bone broken. The frac-
ture was the result of a fight which
took place on lower Kansas avenue

the rubber cast for broken jaws used,
but it is the first attempt made by
them to use it The cast is fastened
in the mouth of the patient who will
