GAS MEN SET FORTH
THEIR PLAN
For Determining the Value of
Leases as Basis For
Rate-Making.

Columbus, O.-Production value is
emphasized by the committee of natural
gas men who have laid down before the
State Public Utilities Commission their
method OF arriving at the value of nat
ura gas leaseholds in making apprais-
ais Tor rate-naking purposes. The aver
age life of gas field is estimated at
five years, and the value of gas pro-
duction from each acre at $65SO
In making their statement as to the
method of valuing gas leaseholds, the
natural gas men assume that they will be
calculated in determining the value of
the property used and useful for the
convenience of the public This ques-
ton is still pending before the commits
sion. which has given no idea OF its
views.
The gas men divide leases into three
classes: Producing leases, or those on
which wells have been drilled; de-
veloped leases, or those upon which
wells have not been drilled, but adjoin
producers, and reserve leases, or those
that are held as a reserve acreage to
maintain or replace the present supply.
The method of valuing the first and
second classes is held to be, or should
be the same, namely, production. AS
to the third, reserve leases, it is stated
that they have valuation equal to at
least as much money as has been spent
upon them and may quite often have
more Reproduction methods are de
clared impossible because it is impos-
siblc to reproduce natural gas leases
The testimony OF skilled gas men on
basis OF sales on fair valuation, is sug-
gested. Values will depend upon prox-
unity to market, market demand, vol
ume OF flow, rock pressure, character
of producing sand" probable extent
OF field cost of drilling wells and prob
able life or field and character OF gas
produced.

OHIO GLASS INDUSTRY
Criticized For Alleged But Neces-
sary Violations of Labor Laws.

Washington, d. CA report on con-
ditions in the glass industry, made pub
lie by the Department of Labor, shows
that in total of % glass manufactur-
ing establishments investigated in Ohio,
6.2 per cent OF the employees are under
16 years Of age. These establishments
employ 9,15S persons, of whom 567 are
under 16 years of age. OF the 567 under
that age 515 are boys and 80 girls.
Concerning night employment in the
glass industry the report says:
THE employment of children at night
was prohibited in New York, Ohio, Hi
noiS, Wisconsin and Missouri This law
seemed pretty well obeycd except in
Ohio, where it was under attack, and
where meanwhile it was almost dead
letter. The occasional employment OF
boys more hours than the law permit
ted, when there was any restriction OF
this kind, seemed common, and, under
the prevailing system of factory inspec-
ton, almost impossible OF prevention.
The difficulty in securing a sufficient
supply OF boy labor is the cause for
most OF these vioationS.'

DANIEL FINN RAPIDLY
 RECOVERING FROM ACCIDENT
Little Doubt of His UItimats Recovery
 Unless Complications Set In.

Daniel Finn of Norwich, who has been at the point of death at the Lawrence hospital, New London, for some time. suffered from fracture Of the skull, received by being struck by an automobile, owned and driven by Elijah L. Deaton of New London, is rapidly improving and his recovery is now expected.
 About two weeks ago Finn's condi- hon was so critical that hope of saw ing his life had practically been abandoned Coroner Franklin H Brown of Norwich went to New Lon- don to make his ante-mortem state ment, but was unable to get it because of his condition. At that time fr seem- ed impossible that he would live.
 He fingered in this condition fol two or three days and then there was change for the better. He began tc show a slight improvement and from that time, his condition has improved slowly but steadily until now there seems to be but little doubt of his ultimate recovery, unless some unex- ,1Escted complication develops.

It is reported that a boys military camp will be inaugurated at the Old Kitemaug site on the Thames this summer. The camp will be conducted similar to the Plattsburg camp.

They receive ex- pert training in the manual of arms, manual training and wireless tele- graphy.
 The site is adapted for drill work as there is level stretches of land consisting of about 20 acres Two military officials of New York visited the grounds earlier in the week and reported that the location is very Ia vorable and if the camp this year is a success it will become a permanent thing. As the navy yard is so close at hand the probability of retaining the camp is favored.
