January. 1914. the company will be
generating 10000 horse power at its
various plants.
This amount includes $1,000 horse

or Bithulitic Company.

The state charter board has refused
to annu1 the charter of the Kansas
Bithuiitic company of Kansas City,
Kan. T. A. Pollock filed a complaint
against this company with the char
ter board. One ground was that the
company had not filed its annual re-
ports as required by the corporation
law and the other was that the COM
pany was virtually a monopoly and
that it was violating paving laws by
circulating petitions which specified
certain kind of pavement. Since
the complaint was filed the company
has sent it's annual statements to the
secretary of state and as there is a
lawsuit now pending in Wyandotte
county in which all the questions re-
lating to the monopoly and the paw
ing specifications will be tried out. the
charter board refused to take any ac-
ton until this case was settled.
