UNIFORM [oer g hesmaress HIT GAS SUBPOENA CHANGES ORDERED Central Corporation Denies Doing Business Here, as Charged by Chipman. A CELADON [ ANER at an The War Department has issued new uhiform specifications for senior units of the Reserve Officers Training Corps ‘The Central Public Service Corpora- #lon of Chicago, which George Bowle Chipman, local stock broker, accuses of being the actual purchaser of the con- uollgu interest in the Washington Gas Light Co,, the District Supreme Court to the fce of a subpoena directed to it which had been served by & deputy United States marshal on Lawrence Townsend, treasurer of the gas company. ‘Through Attorneys Wilton J. Lam- pbert and Dogier A De Vane, the com- pany points out that while it owns biic utilities in 471 communities in n‘sum and in two provinces of Can- ada, it is not engaged in business in the District of Columbia and Mr. Town- send is not an official of the corpora- tion and was not empowered to accept service of a subpoena issued in its asme. Through the same attorneys and At- forney Donald F. McPhorson, Harris, Forbes & Co. of New York, which is also named as defendant in the broker's suit for an accounting of the number of shares of gas stock purchased, on which he claims he was to be paid a commission of about $78,000, asked the dismissal of Chipman’s suit. The finan- clal firm claims that Chipman has a El-ln and adequate remedy at law and not entitled to bring suit in equity. In addition, it asserts, his bill filed through Attorneys Andrew B. Duvall and Frost & Towers does not c.ntain any facts which would permit the court to render judgment against the arm. Chipman brought suit April 8 claim- ing that he called the attention of Albert E. Plerce, president of the Cen- tral Public Service Corporation, to the proposition to buy stock of the gas company, and that he had introduced him to Ord Preston, then president of the gas company, who was willing to sell his stock. Pierce, he claimed, prom- ised to pay him $1 per share for each share secured. After a controlling in- terest had been obtained, he said, the Seaboard Investment Trust was organ- ized and the stock turned over to it to evade the anti-merger law. Chip- man asserted that there exists a private agreement by which the stock may be transferred to the Central Public Serv- {ce Corporation, or to some one named by it. tion of colleges where uniforms of a distinct type with historic are in use.
