THE COKING INDUSTRIAL FUEL George B. Cortelyou, president of the Consolidated Gas company of New York, quotes some interesting J figures pertaining to the manufactur cd gas industry. He says: "Gas consumption is generally classified as domestic, industrial and commercial, the last two being fre quently grouped together.

Schall said. . "The, Indian affairs committee ranks as one of the important senate committees. With republicans organizing the- senate would be in line for the chairmanship because the republican senators who outrank me in seniority already hold committee ch airmanships or else were defeated in the election two week ago. "Senator Frazier outranked me on the Indian affairs committee but h lost that ranking two years ago Now, if it will help the republican party any in organizing for the next congress, I will be perfectly willing to etep aside and let Senator Frazier be reinstated in hi3 original commit tee position so that he can succeed to the chairmanship."
