BALTIMORE, January 14-The ulti-
mate object of the Columbia Gas &
Electric Corporation is to furnish gas
TO Virginia, West Virginia, the District
of Columbia and Maryland through
subsidiary companies, according to
letter just received by the Public Serv-
ice Commission from John G. Pew of
New York, vice president of the cor
poration.
The letter was written to the COM
mission in response to a question raised
at the hearing on the application to
transmit its gas by means of pipe lines
through the State, and in reply Mr..
Pew submitted the following facts of
the case:
Il have received a letter from
Messrs. Piper, Carey e. Hall, saying
that before the conclusion of the hear
ing in the investigation of Maryland
Gas Transmission Corporation the
commission asked whether or not all
of the gas taken into the pipe line
of this company at the Maryland State
line would be purchased by it at the
State line, and whether or not all of
the gas passing out of the pipe line
at the opposite border would be sold at
that point to the company owning the
continuation of the pipe line across
the border. This matter will be han
died in the following way:
For the time being Maryland Gas
Transmission Corporation will purchase

all of the gas which is to go into
its pipe line from the Manufacturers
Light & Heat Co. at the Pennsylvania
Maryland State line and, in turn, will
sell all of this gas in Maryland to
independent companies for distribution
and resale; the greater part of which
will be taken for use in the District
of Columbia by Washington Gas Light
Co.
Upon the completion of the pipe line
through West Virginia and Virginia to
a point near Rockville, the Southwest
ern terminus OF the present line, gas will
flow in the opposite directions and
Maryland Gas Transmission Corpora
ton will purchase from Virginia Gas
Transmission Corporation at the Mary
land-Virginia State line all of the gas to
be transmitted by its line, and in turn
will resell this gas (a) in Maryland to
independent companies for distribution
and resale and (b) at the Pennsylva-
nia-Maryland State line to the Manu-
facturers Light e. Heat Co.
I'm short, Maryland Gas Transmission
Corporation will own all of the gas at
any time in its line and this gas will at
all times be in continuous flow.

poration, the Manufacturers Light g.

INVESTMENT BOND
MARKET IS STEADY
New Offerings Continue to
Influence Prices of Many
Issues.
BY F. II. RICHARDSON.
oecial Dispatch to The Star

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, January 14-Though
many issues were affected by the con-
tinued increase in the daily amounts
of new bond offerings, the investment
market remained firm today for the
most part.
With a total of about $50, 900, 900 of
new bonds, on top of the $l25, 000,0 900
put out the first two days of the week,
1t was natural that listed issues should
decline. Companion outstanding issues
to the new flotations did drop a point
or more, instances being Columbia Gas
& Electric SIS, International Match SIS
and Pacific Gas & Electric S..
The stocks were lower for a time
and since much of the selling was con-
centrated in oil issues, the bends of
these companies had a lower trend
Texas Corporation SIS were still actively
under pressure after their IL -point
decline Tuesday. Others to drop we're
Cities Service SIS and Standard Oil of
New Jersey SIS, though the latter moved
down conservatively.
Prime investment favorites like Atchi-
son general As, Canadian Pacific As,
Great Northern rs, New Haven AIS,
Consolidated Gas 51as, Atlantic Re-
filming SIS, Inland Steel 412S, National
Dairy Products 5 14S and Pan-Ameri-
can Petroleum IS held firm or advanced
a shade. Junior railroad obligations
with small gains included Chicago e.
Eastern Illinois SIS, st. Paul adjust
ments, Erie general lien As, Missouri
Pacific 515S, Frisco AIS and Seaboard
Air Line IS. Industrials were irregular
and convertibles were also ragged.
Among foreign dollar bonds, South
Americans were generally firm in the
absence of unfavorable developments
and the continued service on ali issues
with the exception of Bolivian rs, on
which delayed payments are expected.
Australian bonds were weak following
London selling. Australian exchange
was reported at 20 per cent discount
in Lombard street. German, French,
Belgian and Italian credits were I'M
changed.
The market was extremely sensitive
to new issue announcements, - even
rumors of them.

OPTIMISM PREVALENT
IN MACHINERY MARKET

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, January 14-Optimism
is becoming more evident in most of
the country's machinery and machine
tool markets, partly as a result of the
new year and partly because orders
and inquiries are increasing, American
Machinist reports.
Dealers and manufacturers, remem-
bering the continuing disappointments
of the past few months, are loath to
make any further predictions. All
agree, however, that orders will come
as soon as business in general begins
its rise. Their preparedness for the
upturn is indicated in the number of
new equipment items listed in the
semi-annual review number of Ameri-
can Machinist-37 per cent above
average.
In the past week the New York mar
ket had several single orders for large
units, with small-item sales increasing.
Chicago dealers han the recent addi-
tons TO automobile and railroad en-
ployment lists and expect several rail-
roads to inquire soon. The Santa Fe
has a list out, also the Milwaukee
School Board. Sentiment is more
cheerful in the Milwaukee district, with
used tool sales advancing.
General business in Detroit is a
shade better. Philadelphia, in spite
of orders from Baldwin is still peSsi-
mistic, but hopes for railroad orders
Cleveland reports sales to large auto
mobile manufacturer and an increase
in inquiries. Tool producers there are
increasing their working forces.
New England machine-tool orders
show a gain for the week, though many
are still of the promissory variety
Budgets, however, hold promise for the
near future Southern district sales
got off to a fair start after a poor
November and December, though used
tools are CLOTHING the market and
forcing prices down.
