BY Associated Press
CHICAGO, April 16.-J. e. Faithern,

Transfer company, which operates a
belt line around Chicago, was today ap-

OVERCOME BY FUMES OF Gas
Discovered in Time by Their Son, Charles B. Klein

Restored After an Hours Work by Two Physi-
Cians--.BOth Likely TO Recover.

. Mr.. and Mrs. II. ]. Klein, Of sol
East Third street, had narrow es-
cape from being asphyxiated at their
home Tuesday. A son, Charles B.
Klein, Of the Klein & Heffelman Co.,
who daily goes to see his parents call
ed Tuesday about noon and it was due
to his call at that time that both are
not dead.

the storm shed hooked / started to

ceedingly deep breathing. l at once
broke in the storm door and found
the kitchen door unlocked and upon
entering found mother at the window

Drs. James Fraunfelter and e. o.

of hard work succeeded in bringing
them to partial consciousness. DIR,
Fraunfelter stated that he thought both
would recover, although Mr.. Klein
has trouble with his lungs which
might result in pneumonia.
About $3.50 Tuesday evening both
were getting along very nicely, but
were wholly unable to account for
themselves. The damper of the pipe
in the kitchen stove was found clos
ed and the gas turned very high, and
1t was no doubt due to the poisonous
fumes which had no means of escap-
ing, that the old people were over
come The breakfast work was all
cleared and no signs of the preparing
of the noon meal were in evidence,
leading to the supposition that the
old people had inhaled the fumes for
"a considerable length of time.

WILL TEST LINE FENCE LAW
Marlboro Township Man in Application for INDUCTION
Claims It Is a Violation of Constitution of
State of Ohio-..Gets Temporary Restraining

trustees are not enjoined they will
erect the fence at large expense,
deprive him of the use of the land
the tax duplicate of the county against
his lands and later proceed to sell
the lands to pay the expense of build
ing the fence and for the making of

incidental expenses.
Vaughan further states that the law
under which the trustees are pro-
ceeding is entitled IAN act to- provide
for the repair and building of line
fences, etc." and is to be found on
pages 1876 and 142 of the laws of the
state of Ohio for the year 1904 that
the same is illegal, void and uncon-
stitutional in that it is i'm conflict
with sections 16 and 19 of Article
of the constitution of the state of Ohio
and is also in conflict with other pro-
visions thereof, and for the further
reason that the enacting clause of
said act contains more than one sub

subject matter were irregular and il

TEMPORARY INJUNCTION GRANT
ED.
In conclusion Vaughan prays for a
temporary injunction to restrain the
defendants from proceeding to build
the fence or carrying out the con-
tract entered into between the trus-
tees and the Joseph w. Vaughan, a
co-defendant. He also asks that they
be enjoined from certifying the cost
and expense of such proceedings until
the legality Of the acts of the de-
PENDANTS may be inquired into and until
the constitutionality of the line fence
law may be judicially determined and
passed on. In case any part of the
expenses of the proceedings have al
ready been certified and placed on
the tax duplicate against the prop
erty of Vaughan he asks that manda-
tory injunction may issue against
the defendants, as trustees, requiring
them to take such action as may be
necessary to withdraw the same.
On the strength of Vaughan's petit
ton Judge Harter granted temporary
restraining order. No date was set
for final hearing for perpetual in
junction. 1t may not be held until
the end of the present term. 1t is un-
derstood that the case will be taken
to the highest court no matter what
decision is handed down by the COM
mon pleas court.

Judge j. P. Fawcett has brought
proceedings in common pleas court on
behalf of Burton w. Vaughan against
John Robertson ct al, trustees of Marl-
boro township, Stark county, to test
heconstitutionality of the law regulat-
ing the repair and construction of
line fences, which is alleged to be
in conflict with sections 16 and 19
Of article / of the constitution of the
state of Ohio and with other provis-
ions thereof.
Vaughan claims to be the owner of
rGal estate in Marlboro township.
This adjoins the property of Adolph
Lipcke, He also AYERS that about May
27,, 1905, Lundy Miller, Adam steffy
and Charles Johnson, co-defendants in
the action, were acting as trustees of
Marlboro township and that w. c..
Clapsaddle served notice ON him in
writing that Adolph Lincke had made
application to the trustees to view a
partition fence between the two prop
critics and to assign to each their por-
ton of the fence.
ADVERTISED FOR BIDS.
The application was set down for
a hearing ON June 10, 1905. Subse-
guently the trustees viewed the fence
and apportioned to Vaughan to build,
construct and keep in repair tine
south half of the fence, distance of
164S IL feet in length. He was or
dered to complete the fence on or be-
fore December. 1905. Vaughan failed
to comply with the conditions, so the
defendants in the present action, the
trustees, served notice that sealed
bids would be received by them up to
noon on Saturday, December 2, 1905
for the building of partition fence
between the property Of Vaughan
and the property of Lincke.
The fence was to be built according
to plans and specifications ON file with
the township clerk. Several bids were
received. Joseph w. Vaughan sub
mitted a bid for $22.97 and furnished
the necessary bond to insure the pro-
per performance of the work. AL
though his bid was the lowest the
trustees refused, the petitioner states
to award him the contract, awarding
1t instead to Clarence Flory. whose
bid was for $3155. Flory refused to
accept the contract, so bids were re-
advertised for by the trustees. JOS
eph w. Vaughan then submitted a
second bid, which was for 5000
This bid was accepted. 1t was $3.50
higher than his first bid.
ALREADY HAD A FENCE.
Vaughan, the plaintiff, alleges that
there is good and substantial fence
on the land and that this fence ex-
listed when the trustees awarded the
bid for a new fence This fence, he
AYERS, strictly complies with the pro-
visions of the law. He charges thai
the defendants, the township trustees
are now proceeding to build and con-
struct a new fence and appropriate
his lands for that purpose. This ac-
ton is being taken, he charges, with
out condemning the property for that
purpose.
Vaughan also charges that if the
