against that company.
The only witness offered today was +.
G. Runyan. inspector OF gas meters, who
testified to the examinations made on the
various dates mentioned I'm the declara-

the gas on those occasions showed a de-
feet as to candlepower or evidenced the
presence Of sulphureted hydrogen.
The answer Of the gas company de-
clares that the presence OF he sui
phureted hydrogen was accidental. and
that the candle power fell on on those
occasions from a similar cause. The
company says the act of Congress pro-
vfdes for such exigencies, and holds that
