America and of the fundamental sound
ness and goodness of the Russian peo-
pie, which they believed gave assur-
ance that with fair start they could
build good and stable government.
Mr.. Summers story of his imprison-
ment, and the men who shared it, was
the most vivid picture of the exact
conditions under the terror which has
been told. He had been left behind in
Volodga when the other foreigners
were driven out because he was too i'll
to move, and when recovered went to
kedloff, the chief of the city commits
sion, for permission to leave. Letters
ordering all soldiers and officials of
the revolution to give him every assis-
lance were given him by Brouski, Chief
Commissioner of Commerce, Krylenko,
Chief Commissioner of Agriculture,
and the assistant commissioner who
had charge of forestry Kedloff looked
at these, said he could go anywhere
and was told he would be given a pass
in two days.
But the next day Kedloff issued Il
decree calling on all soldiers to shoot
on sight any Americans, Britons or
Frer chmen, saying these capitalistic
governments were enemies of the rovo-
luton. Summers, however, went back
for his pass and was turned over to
Eiduk, Lettish Jew, who tried to tear
up his passport, and had him arrested.
He was confined in car on the train
Eiduk used, which was very gorgeous
and was said to have been the Cars.
Portentious Threat Returned
Four hours later Summers secretary
again reached Eiduk, but returned
greatly depressed. He had been told
that all American officials at Moscow
had been thrown into prison (Which
was not true) and said Gas to the
cause of your arrest, all you will ever
know in this world you will learn at
$3.50 tomorrow morning"
In the prison to which Summers was
sent was young Russian, an Oxford
graduate, who had come from England
to visit his parents, and had been
arrested because he was heard talking
English. Three guards took him out
about dusk, leaving his coat, and he
did not rsturn. Later Summers learned
he had been shot.
SummesS's secretary finally got to
kedloff with }stter telling of the sec
retry's work for the revolution, eleven
years exile, and service both to Keren-
sky and Bolshevik officials, and giving
references to high officials at Moscow.
AS a result Summers was sent there
for trial, but the secretary also was
arrested and sent along. This secre-
tary, Mr.. Summers added, had worked
for Albert Rhys Williams, an Ameri-
can now lecturing in America, and re-
ported that Williams was hired by the
Bolsheviki for this work.
In Moscow both Summers and his
secretary were thrown into prison,
where eighty-five men were confined in
a cell intended for thirty. A few days

Commission, in Reply to
Suit, Says Lower Candle
Power Was Forwarded in
1913 Than Law Calls For

In its answer to the suit of the Con-
solldated Gas Company, which is at
tempting to have declared unconstitu-
tional the New York City 80-cent gas
law, the Public Service Commission
charges that the company does not
come into court with "clean hands,"
the answer charges, that it supplied
consumers with an inferior grade of
gas while being paid for better quail
ity.
One this score the commission al
leges that the company deliberately,
during 1918. violated the SO-cent law
by distributing gas of less than twenty
two candle power as demanded by the
statute. 1t was stated that this was
done in order to extract from the gas
tuluol, a principal ingredient of the ex-
plosive INT.
GAS result of said failur of COM
plainant to comply with the statute"
the answer states, CONSUMERS received
gas of lesser heating and lighting value
than they were entitled to under said
act, and were obliged to, and did, pay
more for gas necessarily consumed by
them than they would have paid had
complainant complied with said act of
1906"
Tells Of Increased Cost
In its suit to overthrow the S0-cent
law the company contended that the
cost of manufacture had so increased
as to almost nullify its profits. To
further this contention it intended to
charge to its operating expenses during
1918 the cost of manufacturing twenty
two candlepower gas. The commission
seeks to have this individual charge
omitted from the operating expenses,
as "the gas sold to consumers was of a
