Supply Fell of.

During the past few years It's ga'
supply has hardly been adequate 10
meet the requirements of manutactur
ing and domestic consumers and the
company has been embarrassed 10 Il
great extent on account of the failure
in the supply Kansas City ana Jop-
lin. Mo, have kept up a continual agi-
tation for more gas and the company
has taken this step to insure better
service for the domestic consumers
The company had requested the puD-
lie service commission Of Kansas city
for permission to raise the domestic
rates. in the hope of curtailing con-
SUMPTION. but no results have been OBJ
tanned along this line. The company
coptended that If it was permitted 10
raise the price to so cents per thou
sand, less gas would be used, and 1t
would cut out the gas for manufactur-
ing establishments entirely. In this
manner the loss of the income from
boiler gas would be partly made up in
the increase in price for domestic con-
sumption and all parties would be
better satisfied.
When the company first laid its line
to Kansas City the supply was ade-
quate to meet all requirements and
the prospects looked good for the
company having a peaceful and sue
cessful career. However, the gas field
in southern Kansas and northern Ok
lahoma from which the company OBJ
tains its supply, has followed in the
footsteps of most other gas fields,
and the heavy drain on the territory
is beginning to tell. There is plenty
of gas in the field yet, but with the
present equipment and the increased
consumption the company faces tne
position of one who might have the
gas to deliver, but without going to
an expense which would be almost a
total loss, it is impossible to handle
enough gas to satisfy the far-off con-
sumers during the extremely cold
weather. With the boiler gas elimi-
mated from the consumption there
should be plenty for domestic use.
1t is not certain that all manufac-
turing establishments will do away
with natural gas under this new order.
but 1t is hardly probable that they
will feel inclined to pay the differ

 DENIES HIS GUILT
The Legislative Committee Further Probes Bri-
 bery Scandal

Santa Fe, N. NJ, March 22.-'It is false he'll" said Charles A. Spiese on the witness stand this afternoon when asked concerning the truth of the assertion that the republican state executive committee had framed a trap for the four mem- bers of the legislature accused of solicit ing a bribe. Testimony previously had been given before the house investigate ing committee that the alleged bribery incident was q plot to get the four de- fendents out of the way because they were known to be favorable to sena- torlal candidate not agreeable to meni- bers of the executive committee.
 Because of a serious break between Speaker R. l.. Baca of the house of rep- resentatives and E. B. Catron, one of the mos. prominent senatorial candidates, d secret conference took place tonight at tended by the regular senators with view to taking steps, it is said, to im- peach Baca. The charge is that he pur- posely had withheld the contest papers of three republicans because the demo- crats whom they are seeking To displace are voting for Baca for state senator The conference created a sensation. II Is said the split between the republican and progressive members opens the way to the election of q democrat and a pro- gressive republican as senator's by dem- ocratie- progressive republican alliance.
