issued in the neighborhood Of 1000
certificates.

lsge of riding in sleepers. The train
will arrive in Chicago about O'Clock
this morning.

WE'RE NOT OUTLAWS"
So Say Natural Gas Men Before the
Supreme Court.

About an hour on each side was de-
voted TO the arguments in the Kansas
Natural Gas case in the supreme court
behalf of the state. otherwise the Kan
sas Gas Protective association, and
Eugene Mackay of Pittsburg, Pa,
argued for the Kansas Natural Gas
company.
Mr.. Doster held that the action of
the state charter board in refusing to
grant the Kansas Gas company's ap-
pilcalon for a charter is not review
aole by the supreme court or any
other court. He claimed that the
granting of charters is left wholly to
the discretion of that board. He also
claimed that the Kansas Gas company
can not plead exemption from the
jurisdiction of the state charter board
on the ground that it is an interstate
corporation. These were the princi-
PAL points upon which the Gas Pro-
teetive association is trying to keep the
fNaIlsaS kansas Gas company from taking gas
from the gas fields.
In reply Eugene Mackay said:
WHEN. the charter board met to take
action on this application, the room
was crowded with people. No effort
was made tO1 show that the Kansas
Gas company is insolvent. The crowd
was simply there because they didn't
want the gas taken away from the gas
belt. They didn't want US to be al
lowed to market our own PROPERTY
members of the board, against their
wills, to vote against the granting of
this charter.
1--WE studied the thing over and de-
cfded that mandamus would not lie.
We decided that it would not. We
had no recourse. We had been de-
MED our rights by two members of a
board who said, IF we can keep this
company from getting a license, we
can keep them out of the state The
only relief is in the common law. The
theory of the common law is that
what ought to have been done is done.
The charter board ought to have
granted this charter. Therefore it is
the same as though the charter had
been granted. We are not renegades;
we are not outlaws; we are honorable
men. We want to furnish every citi-
zen of the state with cheap light and
fuel, and that is what we propose to
do if we are allowed to do business in
the state.''
The decision in this case is expected
next month.

SEIZED IT'S CAR.
How a Concordia Lawyer Played Even
With a Railroad.

A queer lawsuit was argued in the
supreme court yesterday. It involved
the right of a creditor of a railroad to
seize and hold a freight car for a
debt In this case the railroad com
pany has no property in the state ex-
cept now and then a freight car.
Homer Kennel, of the firm of Ken
nett & Peck. lawyers, at Concordia,
had a judgment against the Pennsyl-
vania railway for $167. The judg-
nent did not seem to do him much
good, but being a lawyer he kept his
eyes open and waited. One day he
noticed on the siding at Concordia a
coal car bearing the name of the
Pennsylvania railway. It did not take
him long to get out the necessary
papers and attach the car. Mr.. Ken
nett did not especially need a coal car
in his business, but he figured that he
might be able to sell it to somebody
for enough to pay his claim. The
lower court gave him possession of
the car, and the Pennsylvania railway
appealed to the higher court. Judge
Frank Doster represents the railroad.
