GAS CASE HEARING
TO END SATURDAY
High Official Of the Com.
pany On the Stand For
Characterization.

PITTSBURGH, July The hear
ing in this city OF the complaint OF the
Manufacturers Light and Heat Com
pany against the Public Service Com
mission OF West Virginia will probably
end on Saturday, according TO couns q
on both sides.
1t has not been decided where and
when the next hearing will be held
The present hearing. according &c
counsel for the company, will only
complete the examination and cross
examination OF the compary's wit
nesses.
When the hearing was resumed be,
fore Special Master J. W. VanGervort
NJ. B. Layton. assistant genera! man
ager o. the company was placed or
the stand for CrOSs-eXalinat!on.
The witness admitted the company
had demands for more gas than II
could produce in Pennsylvania and
testified in regard to purchases made
by the company, the condition OF
wells in the operated fields and the
laying of new pipe lines. saying these
causes entered into the selling price
OF gas.
Tells Of Purchases.
On cross-examination by Frank W
Nesbitt, counsel for the commission
Layton admitted that at the time OF
the acquisition OF the local companies
in West Virginia, the Manufacturers
Light and Heat Company had de
mands for more gas than il could pro
duce in Pennsylvania. He admitted
that at that time there was more gas
than was needed for consumption in
West Virginia and less gas than was
needed for consumption in Pennsy!va
ria and Ohio.
Mr.. Layton testified that the pur'
chase of the West Virginia companies
were made in February and March
1903. and that the companies were
merged with the Manufacturers Light
and Heat Company in April the same
year. He said that the Manufacturers
Light and Heat Company was nicer
porated in 1855 as the Manufacturers
Natural Gas Company with capita!
stock of 100000. In 1856. he stated,
the capital stock was increased TO
$500, 900 and 100000 in bonds. He
averred that the purpose Of the in
crease in capital was TO extend the
pipe lines and fields of the company.
Says Increase Necessary.
Tho witness also testified that the
condition OF the wells in the operated
field and the laying Of new pipe lines
enters into the determination OF the
selling price OF gas. He told OF the
increased schedule of rates as con
templated by the company to become
effective November /. 1918, wnlcn
were suspended pending the hearing
before the West Virginia Public Ser
vice Commission and said that the
increases in the rates were decided
upon after conferences Of the officials
of the company consuming months.
Mr.. Layton asserted that the company
officials deemed an increase in rates
necessary because OF the increased
cost OF production OF gas and the haz,
ard in drilling successful wells. The
witness pointed out the new lines OF
the company in West Virginia since
the acquisition of the local affiliated
companies in that state in 1903.
