during the past year in lining up the
waiting couples. And when that train
steamed into the Union station yesterday
morning young couples were in all parts
of the coaches.
All of them had waited for Mrs Gill;
annual Her excursions always have
been popular. and this one is no excep-
ton. In consequence the marriage IL

sorts have been freely circulated concern

in gas some months ago. but from IN
formation gathered yesterday and today
it is now evident that the various interests
concerned are actively maneuvering FOR
position for another important movement.
Gas was easily the feature Of the entire
noon session of the local stock exchange
today and nearly 800 shares changed
hands at a marked advance on the prices
which have obtained for the past few
weeks. Trading opened with the sale OF
followed in rapid succession by total OF
nearly twenty others involving anywhere
from ten shares to 100 shares each. The
bidding. which was active at g.. brought
little actual stock to the surface, and with
few stops for fractional bids the price
was rushed to 66. to $751; and to 81. and at
the various figures named the sales oc-

Woodruff could record them.
In fact, the demand for Gas seemed so
great that 1t was apparent the purcha sing

even more active and aggressive.
