Shaw Abandons Site Over Lodge Objections
Secretary Shaw withdraws acceptance of a site from the Boston Consolidated Gas Company after Senator Lodge objects. Shaw had bought a gas company site for 250000 claiming it was under value to fit a 9000 budget, but the purchase now stands in question as the grant funds are insufficient. The gas company has refused to cover the shortfall, and no further purchase plans will occur until a larger appropriation is sought from Congress.

Great Northern Stock Issue Enjoined by Minnesota Court
In Ram sey County District Court Judge Oscar Hallam barred Great Northern Railway from issuing or increasing 60 million dollars worth of stock without prior written approval from the Minnesota Railroad and Warehouse Commission. The railroad claims its charter allows stock issuance at will and that the commission law is unconstitutional. The court's injunction requires written application to the commission, while the company plans to appeal and continue the stock plan. Wall Street viewed the ruling as not weighty, given Northwest demand for rail capacity and expected commission approval.
