 Boston, July 1s-A decision favor able to the plaintif was handed down today in the United States Circuit Court in the case of George W. Pepper. Receiver of the Bay State Gas Com Rogers of New York. in the suit to re- ctver sa,000.0o0 alleged to be due the gas company in connection with the sale ef the Boston companies.
 The court holds that the position occupied bv Rogers was not that of q but that he had full control and man. agement of the Boston company's act- fnK with the full consent of his CO., trustees and that he was liable to ac- coant for gains and profits received by him alone for his sole benefit
 The court holds that there was in fact an active trust of the kind ai- the relations of Rogers to the trust ware of such a character as to afford an opportunity Of securing the gains and profits alleged by the bill provid- ed the New England Gas and Coke CO. or the men yinferested in 1t were will ling to assent to an arrangement of which the gains and profits could be
 Mir Rogers contended that his con- trcl of the Brookline Gas Company gave him command of the gas situa- ton and q strategic position of value, but the court finds that as a trustee of the other companies he had no right to take advantage or such a position to the disadvantage of the Boston com panies
 While the court reserves the right to. review It's findings after the master submits hts reports. it expresses the opinion that the amounts received by the respondent. Rogers. for hls Brook lyn securities was in excess of any value which was visible to the court. But the facts disclosed by the rec ords cannot in any event entitie the complainant to recover as gains and profits such entire excess but only ita equitable portion thereof The court holds that there is no basis for the allegation that Rogers sought to se. cure the management of the Boston companies in order that he might sec cure, large comuensation and profit for himself

 Superintendent Kelsey said tonight that he had no authority 10 strike any names from the lists of nominations filed with him. His understanding was that these nominations we're filed in the department as a matter of record As for the complaint against the form In which the list of policyholdcrs were filed he had not yet had time 10 ex- anime it particularly nor had he ex- arpined the lists themselves He would await more specific complaint as the work of copying progressed. If it should appear that the companies had not in good faith complied with the law he would take such steps as he conceived to be within his duty.

were scarcely more than three OF four

though imbued with an intense desire to
show their appreciation of the large audi

hear them. the participants on tho pro-

every number rendered. Fritz schccl was
perhaps never happier in his life for he
stood between large and enthusiastic
audience. sheltered from raging storm
without. and his splendid orchestra which
played and responded as never before to
the inspiring movements Of his baton.
The first number an overture from
"Oberon." by Weber. was indeed happy
greeting to the audience. and its excellent
rendition prepared it for the good things
to follow.
The next number was a selection from
Tannhaeuser, by Madame Marie KunlSel-

sung. 1t was disappointment to many
that the stage lighting was not better.
