ing 70 waste from the springs and wells here
tonight because OF an injunction which took
effect yesterday restraining companies from
pumping gas and water for the purpose Of sale
The companies. interpreting the order as not
prohibiting pumping for other purposes than for
sale, have simply disconnected the wells with
their bottling plants, while the pumps are kept
at work but the water and gas go 10 waste
Attorneys for the companies explain this action
by saying that TO discontinue pumping would
threaten the existence of the wells.
The injunction order was granted early last
week after snort trial OF the case. which was
brought by the Attorney General 10 enforce the
anti-gas pumping law. passed by the Legts-
lature 10 protect the springs. The formal ap-
peal from the Injunction probably Will be laid

Pittsburg, Sept 26.-An epidemic OF insanity
has struck Riverside Penitentiary. where more
than thirteen hundred prisoners confined. and
eighteen distinct Iunacy commissions are now
taking testimony at the prison.
II announced to-day that on Saturday

stabbed They both long term prisoners
and are now in the hospital with only slight
chances of recovery.
Warden Francis is Of the opinion that the in
sanity has been brought about by the lack of
work for the prisoners. as under a recent state
law only 35 per cent OF the prisoners can be
given work at one time. This leaves each
prisoner about two thirds of his time locked
up in his cell alone. Three hundred of the thir-
