Peoria, H., Dec. 2O.-Nothing.. has
been heard as yet of Thomas Neill, the
missing cattle dealer, except that a
person answering to his description,
who said he was cattle dealer from
Peoria, Illinois, was seen Wednesday
on an east bound train on the Canada
Southern railroad. His liabilities are
estimated now at S350,000. The larg-
est creditors say that they are amply
secured, and smaller creditors are ap-
pearing every day., but they have no
security. Lawsuits are threatened over
the cattle fattening at the distilleries,
on which Neill gave bills of sale and
the warehouse receipts, but which are
claimed by others'who say Neill never
owned them.

BELF0RD's A BRICK.
HE SAYS THE UTEs MUST SO.
And Predicts a Lively Discussion In
Congress, In which He VIII
Show Up Conger and
Others

Washington, Dec. 2o.-nepresenta-
tive Belford, of Colorado, predicts that
the house win yet consent to the re-
moval of the -Utes from Colorado to
the Uintah reservation, across the bor-
der in Utah territory. He also says
that there will be u lively debate when
the question comes up again after holi-
day recess. to which he intends to con-
tribute, by paying his respects to Con.
gers recent speech in the light Of the
history of Michigan. He has hunted
up the official records, exhibiting the
course pursued towards the Indians of
Conger's own state, as follows: In '55
treaty was made with the Ottawa
and Chippewa's of Michigan, number
ing about six thousand, by which sew
eral reservations were set apart for
them on the islands of lake Michigan,
and in seven counties of that state,
upon which they were allowed to locate
eighty acres per capita, but in '72 the
greedy Michiganders induced congress
to violate treaties and open up all the
reservations to pre-emption and home
stead settlers.
The Pottawottamies of Huron were
settled among the marshes and sand
knobs, and were in starving condi-
tion, although they used to dominate
the councils of all the Indians of the
northwest.
Belford also s=ys he has found re-
ports on file in the interior department
which show that the godly people of
Michigan not only wanted to get rid of
the noble red men, but also sold bad
whisky to them. All of this and more
of the same character he will ask Con-
ger to explain before indulging in fur
ther reprobation of the people of Colo
rado as unjustifiably solicitous for the
removal of the Utes to good location
elsewhere. ----->,-.,.---..-.-

AhwYoMINs OIL.
Omaha Capitalists Developing OuI
Fields

II
From the Omaha Herald.
Learning that party of Omaha cap
italists had, just returned from securing
and developing oil lands in Wyoming
Territory, a, Herald reporter called
| upon Messrs. Samuel E. Rogers and j..
IslLeyett7yesterday and obtained the
facts about the petroleum bonanza.
The party included Messrs. Lovett
and DIR. Graf of this city and has been
on,a trip of six weeks exploring the
mountains and valleys of Wyoming.
Pheparticular bonanza which they have
started TO develop is located ON Popo
Agie creek, in Sweetwater county, 80
miles south of Camp Brown and rs
miles north of the o. P. r. R. and is
reached from Green River station.
The petroleum appears to lie in a true
oil basin and is reached by sinking
shafts from fifteen to eighteen feet.
Two or three feet below the surface the
shar Strikes crust, impregnated with
oil land several feet thick. Going below
this it penetrates several feet of soil,
and at last strikes strata of rock.
The oil '"wells" up to the top of the
crust and stands there. Three miles
from the wells coal can be procured at
SO per ton, which will enable the opera
tors of the well to put up works and
run them to advantage. This piece of
oil land is only one out of six or seven
that the gentlemen above named to-
gether with Mr.. Frank Murphy and
Mr., John Graft have, secured, but the
others have mot been developed as far.
1t is believed that these regions will be
found equally productive with those of
Pennsylvania ami West Virginia, if not
surprising til EN-. The quality is excel
lent and the quantity beyond calcula-
tion. The roil has been used by millers
and teamsters for lubricating. 1t is a
pure hydro-carbon,. of great density,
and yields so per cent. of Illuminating
oil, and a large percentage of headlight
and lubricating oils The U. P. R. r.
sis using some of it now for the latter
purpose.
Two barrels were forwarded in June
last to Mr.. Taylor, well-known expert
in Cleveland 0. His analysis shows it
to possess far more body and stand a
much higher fire test than the eastern
oils. He says: 81 had the two bar
rels Of oil run and with results which
go far beyond my anticipation. In the
first place expected yield of about
so per cent. l got over s5 per cent.
Fifty per cent. would be given by treat
ing good standard white burning oil.
After allowing for leakage and water
there were 10 gallons in the two pack
ages. I got 60 gallons of oil and 10 of
coke. There was about one-half gallon
of naptha of 63 gravity. 1 treated
about pint of the distillate of 46 gravi-
ty and got white oil of 12S fire test.
