The referee finds: * \1 can not ,on the evidence, convict the - Borden Company of any com- plicity in any scheme to force itr patrons to join the pool, and It cer- tainly had a legal right to purchase Its milk of any individual or group of Individuals that It wishes and for any reason that it wishes to assert.\ 8EALERS WANT BILL8 PASSED.

Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Singer and their eight children, of No. 630 Emer- son street, Watertown, formerly of Lowville, were all overcome by coal gas early Tuesday morning. It is possible that-they would have all been asphyxiated had not Mr. Singer awoke at art early hour. He was very sick from the gas and awakened his wife, who was semi-conscious. Mr. Singer then ruBhed upstairs and started rousing the children. As he came from one room he noticed Harold, 15, staggering toward the stairs. He rushed to the boy and grab- bed him just as'he was about to topple down the stairs. Mr. Singer carried the boy to the front*door and placed him on a rug and opened the door. The fresh air revived the boy a little and Mr. Singer dashed upBtairB to get the other children. They were all affected by the gas, but none were unconscious. A physician was called and rendered aid. Mrs. Singer. Hafrold and Marion, aged five, were ia a very serious con- dition when the doctor arrived. They soon improved' and Tuesday afternoon were suffering only from severe head-, ache* Charles, 15, was sleeping In the same room with Harold, but was not affected with the gas to any great extent. The gas seemed to be of a mon- oxide nature and lacked the strong odor that generally accompanies coal ga*s. Mr. Singer said that he believed the gas was 1 caused from burning pea coal in the furnace. He said that he could not get the larger gride of coal, so Monday night about 9 o'clock he banked the furnace fire with pea-coal. He did not go to bed until about 11 o'clock, and thought by that time the gas had had plenty of time to burn off the fire before he checked it.- LOWVILLE ORAHGE.T. OF H.
