STATE CONTROL GNLi, STOCK ISSUES

l ono ot the most important bills before inc Lrgislaturr, but one which in all probability will be SO gcraly "ao' on," is Senate bill No. 4G&, which was introduced by son ator William \. Reddon of Bridge port. This bill would have inc Pub lie Utilities Commission be given jurisdiction over the issuance of stool, and other securities of pub ! lie utilities.
 The matter has boon up before and has been turn,j down for fear 1 that the efforts of the utility con- pauios in the raising Of money 1 might be curt9ilcd and also Tor oth- CT reasons, perhaps too numerous 10 mention. Chairman Richard T. Hig- gins of the commission is said to take no position upon the present hjll, but it is understood the com mission is Of the same opinion it was in 1916, whon its report came ont in favor of such Jurisdiction over all utility corporations. It will be remembered that in 1915 lha Legis- laurc go>c to the commission the jurisdiction over the issuance of sp- nuri'tcs by the New York. Ncw Haven and Hartford railroad. hut over no other public utility iu the @ta's.
 Al present :ha constant merger of
 utility corporations, particularly in 'ha electric field, makes such a bin ls Inc caa before rha l.ceilpurc of considerable importance, In inc ounjoa Of many observers. control over '4e issuance of securities by tbe states is a paramount necessity in orlar to avoid overcapi,alizltiou and s.oaE-lo lohoing as 8 supplement to Jh, m.r-rs, which in turn would lead 10 iuastout dumaudz for Hfeh- .r la'.- 'o .ait. ces.

GAS" STATIONS AND EARLY STRING

One of the modern signs of an approaching spring is to be found in the increased interest one takes in automobiles and their accessories This includes gasoline filling sta tions, the possible increase in traf- flc cong ,stion, and traffic signal lights. Some items may be overlook cd in the list, but there are enough present for q quorum.
 The motor vehicle commissioner is being heard from almost daily. and if he cannot keep tho discus sion top-hcavy with interest nobody can substitute. His most recent Giscussion--if there is not another ono by the time this sees print had 10 do with the plethora Of gaso- linc filling stations, and to buttrcss an already staunch argument he cited the statistics that there now is q gasoline station to every Il au- tomobiIes in the state.
 Now if the average construction Of gasoline per car were adequately known. and this multiplied by 71. We would have inc amount of gaso- inc sold by the average gas station. FIl,,, .i , each gallon so sold, and the aver age overhead, and know just about how little the average station takes in from this source. And still they are going up, In one block on West Main street there were two such stations, and now third is being built. Wherever one looks one is met by the gaudy sign of q gasoline station; and the average such sta ton. we'll say without fear Of con- tradiction doesn't appear 10 be balr as busy as Mr. Stoeckal.
 The gas stations, as wo HOW have them, Of course do more than sell gasoline. Repairs are made and ac- cessorlos sold. But iho main bus mess continues 10 uo supplying gasoline,
 One such propr tor stated ro- cently that inc gasoline supplying business had an oyr 10 'le future as well as considering the present. The proprietors hoped for con- siderable increase in tb. u-a Of automobiles as thp years passed. which would automatically increase The number of automobiles DOT Iu- ing station.

OKLAHOMA SOL0NS VOTE TO IMPEACH
 THREE OFFICIALS

Alleged illegal payment Of ST. 900 through a deficiency certificate on the banking department to en- ployes charged by the house investi- gating committee to have been H. legally placed on the payroll, 4c to 13.
 Alleged conspiracy between the governor, his confidential secretary, Mrs. o. o. Hammonds and an un- named person. iu connection with collection Of q highway claim by q contractor, 46 10 s.
 The first secret session was held yesterday morning shortly after Governor Henry s. Johnston mo- bilized three units of the National Guard and placed them on duty in the capitol here with orders to deny legislators admittance to their chambers.
 While the governor did not de- clare martial law. he announced the guard had full police powers. The adiutant general was instructed to stop any attempts of the legislators to convene anywhere in Oklahoma as well as in the capitol building.
 Secret session was called shortly before 1 o'clock this morning.
 Although Adjutant Gen. Charles r. Barrett insisted he intended to attempt to suppress all sessions, designated by the governor as fin surrectionary meetings" he gave no indication that he was aware of the secret assembly this morning.
 Representative F. P. Hill, speaker of the house, declared the mobiliZa- ton Of the guard was "the last ef- fort of the administration to pre- vent q full, fair and complete in quiry into charges of corruption in office of state officials"
 Representative II. Tom Knight chairman Of the investigat ting com- mittee branded the mobilization as "an impeachable offense." He said mention Of this action would be made in an indictment ready for presentation to the house which contains hNe charges against Gov ernor Johnston.
 Announcing he mobiiaod the guard to avoid chaos in state gov ernment," the governor said he only wished to prevent session Of the legislature until tho courts had passed on the legality of various angles of the inquiry.
 Governor Johnston said he re- ceived 5000 te!eerams from all parts Of the nation supporting his policy Of refusing 10 recognize the legislators and demanding he put them in jail."
 Governor Johnston, like Governor J. c. Walton who was inlpeached four years ago, is a democrat. While most of tho legislators belong to that party, several republicans are in attendance

TWO SAILORS LOST
 WHEN SOUND LINER SINKS BIG TOWB0AT
(Continued from First Page)

at 9;55 o'clock and headed for New York under full speed.
 About a mile from the scene of the collision, the captain said, the Neponset was sighted. She apparent ly was heading for the canal and was bearing almost directly toward the liner.
 When the two vessels were close together, just how close the captain would not say, the tow boat headed directly across the bow of the Robert F. Lee. The captain said he at once had his engines thrown into full speed reverse and the liner slowed perceptibly but coastod on into the towboat. Within the five minutes that elapsed before the rammed vessel sank, the five surviv- ors were picked from the wreckage to which they were clinging.
 Lifeboat Search Vain. , On learning that two men still were missing, Captain Robinson said he launched lifeboat which cruised about the spot for about an hour and a half. The captain said he realized then that there was no hope of saving the two men and ordered his life boat to come aboard. The trip to New York was then resumed.
 Captain Robinson also reported to the officials of his line that q member of the rescued crew told him the two missing men had been struck on the head by falling life boat.
 The survivors took exception to statements of the sound liners cap tain to the effect that the towboat crossed his bow, but were restrained from going into detail by a repre- sentative of the Doane Towing Com pany, owners of the tug who met them at the pier.
 The survivors further denied thar the two missing men had been struck by lifeboat that swung loose from it's davits on the towing boat. Sampson and Doncetti, they declar- ed, were plunged into the water with the rest of them, and went down NlIu lut SuCllOu Dl the SlIlklnS.
 Captain EXonerated.
 All members of the crew, however, declared that after the collision, Captain Robinson had done every thing within his power to effect res cues.
 IL was still early enough in the evening when the collision occurred so that most of the Robert F. Lees passengers had not gone to bed and Captain Robinson said that none of them was disturbed by the accident The impact of the collision was not great enough to cause great alarm and the captain declared that many of the passengers did not know any thing untoward had happened at the time.
 The sound liner suffered no dam age, according to J. A. Coates, vice president of the Eastern Steamship Company, who announced that the liner would be ready to start on her scheduled return trip to Boston to- night. Free transportation back 10 Boston has been offered the five survivors.
