Independence, Mo. — A. Blankenfield, 

 who uses gas as fuel for the heating of 

 his houses, has sued the Natural Gas Co. 

 of Kansas for damages, on account of 

 the company's failure to supply the gas 

 in regular and suflBcient quantity. Mr. 

 Blankenfield alleges that each year, about 

 the time when . the plants should begin 

 to mature, the pressure on the gas has 

 been decreased and he has been unable 

 to maintain the necessary heat. He asks 

 for compensation as follows: $600 for 

 1906, $800 for 1907, $4,000 for 1908 

 and $5,400 for 1909.
