Receivership Has Cost the Kan
sas Natural $4,000.
Amount Almost Equals Deficit
in Operating Expenses.
And HOW ABOUT MISSOURI
More Than Half the Product
Sold i'm That State.
Nothing Said About Advance in
Rates Over There.

Attorneys for the state and for gas
consumers made it appear that the re-
ceivers for the Kansas Natural Gas
company, in asking for a heavy in
crease in rates to consumers, are en-
deavoring to create an income which
will in a short time put back in the
pockets of the gas company stockhold-
ers every cent of their investment and
leave them in possession of whatever
property may then remain to the COM
pany free of any cost
How soon the gas company stock
holders are entitled to earn back the
amount of their investment, and what
allowance should be made for the I'M
certainties of the duration of a nat
ural gas supply, are problems which
burden the present deliberations of
the utilities commissioners.
r. F. Higgins, city attorney of Kan
sas City, Kan; Fred Jackson, special
counsel, and H. o. Caster, regular at
torney for the utilities commission,
took turns in probing the purposes of
the calculations submitted by the gas
company receivers. 1t was shown that
the gas company proposed to create
revenue that would put back the COM
pany's entire investment within six
years, leaving the stockholders in pos
session of pipe lines and other physi-
cal property whose value would de-
pend entirely upon whether there were
any gas left in the field at that time.
Auditor Hayes declared it highly i'm
probable that the gas supply would be
adequate to carry out even that pro-
gram.
That the receivership has cost the
Kansas Natural the tidy sum of S137,-
900 in the past two years, a sum
nearly equal to the total deficit in
operating expenses complained of, was
shown. This amount was spent for
receivers fees and expenses and for
attorneys. The expenditures were not
given in detail but will be next week
at the request of the utility commits
SiOners.
Although the Kansas Natural re-
ceivers are asking the Kansas utilities
commission for authority to make a
substantial increase in rates in this
state, there has not yet, so far as
Auditor Hayes could tell the commits
sion, been any request for similar au-
thority in Missouri where more than
half the company's product is sold
Hayes said, however, that unless a
similar raise were made in Missouri
the desired increase in Kansas would
be useless.
The commission adjourned until
MOndays morning.

close at o'clock this evening. In the
country the polls opened at O'CLOCK
this morning and will close at 3
o'clock.
A large vote is not expected in the
country, but early indications We're
that a fair vote would be cast In the
city.
Couldn't Hire Autos.
In response to a request from the
Topeka Commercial club, Attorney
General S. NJ. Brewster this morning
gave an opinion, in which he ruled
that the local boosters for the free
gate at the state fair must not hlre
any automobiles for pay to bring IN
voters to the polls. The practice OF
hiring carriages and autos to haul the
lazy voter has been prohibited in
cases where referendum propositions
only are involved, just the same as II
the names of candidates for office were
on the ballot. There was no obJec-
ton to friends of the proposition using
their own automobiles and many OF
these have been in service today.

WHEAT OUTLOOK GOOD


damage ranges from to 40 per cent.
Ten per cent of the acreage in this
section of Kansas reflects damage as
high as forty per cent Sixty per cent
of the acreage is damaged 20 per cent,
the remaining 80 per cent, less than
10 per cent. In the other parts of
Kansas, the damage ranges from
nothing to 20 per cent.
"Of the states total acreage as re-
ported last fall, S,750,0OO acres, our
advices indicate that less than 1,000,-
600 acres will be abandoned or plow-
ed up; damaged 40 per cent, 500, 900
acres; damaged 20 per cent ], 100000;
damaged 10 per cent, 100000 acres;
in approximately 100 per cent condi-
ton, 100000 acres.
Due to Volunteer Wheat
MANY reports indicate that fields
in which volunteer wheat was per-
mitted to grow are badly infected
with fly and bug, while adjacent
fields, where some attention last fall
was given to the determination of
VOLUNTEER wheat, and the burning or
removal of old straw stacks, show a
condition of 100 per cent.
Il do not believe that the profess
sional crop killer is getting in his
the wheat has in many sections
been damaged
In the face of prevailing condi-
tions, no one would be warranted in
cdy1IIS WIldl the next TWO weeks Will
reveal, but with a rather abnorrnaliv
large acreage and Il large per cent of if
at present being nearly in 100 per cent
condition, there is justification for be-
lievinG that the total yield for the
state will rank second to that of last
year.
I'm Oklahoma there are approx
mately 100000 acres of wheat an
increase of 90 per cent over the acre
afe of last year. In some parts of the
wheat growing section there are re-
ports of damage by rust which is diff
hcult to estimate. but Tor the partic-
ular acreage involved, it possibly rep
resentS 10 per cent. In the Black
well territory there are reports of fly
ravages, but from all the information
at hand, it can safely be said that the
acreage is not damaged from allcauses
10 per cent, and the states field VIII
approximate from So million to 10
million bushels, which is more than
double the yield of any previous year
in the history of the state except last
year"
One of Mr.. Koontz's correspondents
is Senator George H. Hunter, who
owns mills and elevators in Sumner
county, and who is regarded as one
of the best wheat crop authorities in
Kansas. Senator Hunter says the con-
dition is satisfactory, and that the
present scare is unwarranted.

forecasts are to be issued to the news

LIE, SAYS M'AD00
Secretary Charges Interior Mo
tives in Riggs Bank Suit.
Says Plaintiff Seeks Shelter
Under Judicial Forms.

Washington, May 15.-Secretary
McAdoo and Comptroller Williams
filed in the district court today an an
swer to the injunction suit brought by
the Riggs National bank charging
them with conspiracy to wreck the in
stitution. Their answer is a sweeping
denial of all the banks charges.
Both officials presented long affi-
davits that they did not combine nor
conspire to injure the bank; that their
actions, set forth as ground for the
banks charge, were taken in the eX-
ercise of proper discretion and be-
cause of conditions in connection with
it's mana cement.
McAdoo Makes Counter Charge
Secretary McAdoo in his affidavit
makes this counter-charge:
81 charge and aver the fact to be
that my inclusion in the suit is due
to Interior and improper motives and
resorted to solely for the purpose OF
thereby uttering and publishing gross
ly false and libelous statements under
free from the legal accountability
that would otherwise be involved
Mr.. Williams in his sworn state
ments says examination of the Riggs
bank by his office disclosed violations
of the national bank act; that it was
not so much commercial bank as one
which lent much money on stock COL
lateral which was used in speculative
ventures; that some of its officers and
directors made false statements under
oath; that dummy loans sometimes
were made, the proceeds of which
went to officers; that some officers
were engaged in real estate transact
lions and other things were done be-
yond its powers.
