Secretary Shaw withdraws acceptance of a site offered by the Boston Consolidated Gas Company after objections by Senator Lodge. He had bought a gas company site for 250000, claiming it was 9000 below market value and the only feasible location within the appropriation of 90000.

Great Northern Enjoined Over Stock Issue Authorization
In St Paul Judge Hallam barred the Great Northern Railway from issuing 60 million dollars of new stock without written application to and approval by the Minnesota Railroad and Warehouse Commission. The railroad argues its charter allows stock increases and that the commission's power is unconstitutional. Officials said they will appeal and proceed with the plan, while Wall Street showed little reaction as broader sentiment favors granting such permissions to meet rising Northwest demand for rail capacity.
