Forest Oil Notes.

Within the next week we may ex.
pect some more mysteries in our
county, provided the drillers expert
ence no bad luck. We are told that
the Anchor Oil Co.'s we'll, on division
G of the Cooper tract, Howe twp, will
reach the sand in a day or two. This
we'll is situated between the Shannon
we'll or the Cooper tract and the Clark
q Foster producer on 2,735. 1t is
not, strictly speaking, wildcat ven
ture, but is of considerable Importance
in defining the territory between the
Blue Jay pool and the Shannon well.
At Whig Hill, the Kennedy &
Hancock venture, on the Watson
farm will doubtless be iD next week.
One ofahe owners will be at the well
when she comes in and will watch it
closely. They will make a mystery of
it in so far that the owners will know
its condition before any body else
does. But they will not keep the
public long in waiting. This and the
Berlin we'll also on Wing Hill, are
considered very important tests, and
likely to prove big strikes. No true
Forestonian will be sorry to hear that
theG are gushers.
The Cornwell we'll will be down
some time next week. They have a
new fishing job on band at present,
but hope to get to work again in a
day or two. Beats all, the bad luck
they have in that territory. Mr.. c..
will not make mystery of his we'll,
but proposes to know what it amounts
to before anybody else. The we'll is
located in good spot, and those who
are familiar with the clay of the
land" would not be surprised to hear
of good we'll there.
The Tionesta well, by Wolcott q
Co., is down something over 1400 feet
and will be drilled to the depth of
1900 before it is abandoned.
P. S.-Since the above was in type
there has been just the least ripple of
anxiety stirred up concerning this
we'll. If reports are true they are
down close to 1900 feet, and have
struck sand which is a very fair
looking article, and emits such a
strong oleaginOus perfume that the
owners are inspired with considerable
! hope. There is also considerable gas
in the hole. A day or two will tell
the story.

He is Found Guilty on the First and
Eighth Counts.

New YORK, May %.
The case of General Curtis, ex-special
treasury agent, OH trial for receiving money
from office holders for political purposes was
concluded this morning in the U. S. Circuit

State committee, and the eighth count charges
like accusation, but the money was received
from Charles Reychel, government en-
ployee. The district attorney said he would
allow Curtis to stand in his own recognizance
in $500. Curtis then left the court.

GUITEAU AGAIN.
Feeling Against the Wretch Increasing.

WASHINGTON, May %.
Feeling against Guiteau appears to be on
the increase, or rather to be becoming inten-
sifed.So apparent from remarks made that it
would not be safe to admit visitors to Gui-
teau's cell, Gen. Crocker and the officers
state that even if he were awaiting trial they
would for the prisoners protection prevent
him from receiving visitors. 1t would seem.
IN the case of Guiteau, that the postal law
against sending scurrilous matter through the
mails had been suspended by consent. Daily
there are quantities of letters and postal
cards of this kind received for him. There
are comparatively few letters, correspond
ence being almost altogether by postal card,
and about nine out Of every ten have some
reference to the scatfold, hell. satan, &c.
Such communications are never delivered to
Guiteau.

FOREIGN NEWS.



LONDON, May "a.
In the Commons this afternoon Sir Cnas:
Dixie, under foreign secretary, said he had
received no confirmation Of the burning of
children at the recent fire 1t Smorgonl,
Russia
Parnell resumed debate on the repression
bill. He believed the differences drawn from
billions speech unwarranted.
He regretted that the government had not
confined itself to the arrears of rent bill which
would have brought about q settlement OF
the Irish affairs.
He defended Boycotting to limited ex-
tent, as prscticed by English workmen.
TIE feelings of the Irish people before the
Phoenix Park murders were calming, but all
now was upset by fresh coercion, which
will simply play into the hands of the secret
societies.
Parnell said he and his friends in prison
certainly never thought that the transfer Of
land to occdpiels could be effected by any
other means than by purchase.
He eDtreated the government. even at the
last moment, not to shut the door of cOncil-
iation.
Parnelrs speech was very moderate and
almost apologize.
Trevelyan. chief secretary of Ireland. adj
mitted that the government sent simultan-
eously messages of Cancellation and coercion
but pointed out that the messages were not
sent to the same address.
Earl Spencer had determined that all in
reference with huts for shelter of evicted
persons should be submitted to him before
the police were allowed to interfere.
Trevelyan stated that Clifford Lloyd did
not sit in any court under the bill (cheers by
the Irish members), as the powers of the
act could only be exercised by special mag
istrates.
Governs amendment declaring that while
the house is DESTROYS of aiding the govern
ment in the detection of crime, it disapproves
of the restrictions upon free expression of
public opinion in ireland, was rejected, the
| House then went formally into a committee

Great Excitement In Army Circles.

Great Excitement In Army Circles.
WASHINGTON, MAY %.
There is great anxiety in army circles
about the compulsory retirement bill and its
probable defeat at this session of Congress
General Sherman, in speaking of the bill
today, said he favored measure making re-
tirement in the army compulsory at a GER
tain age, leaving no discretionary power in
the matter, or in other words, Just as it is in
the navy. Such a system in the army would
in his opinion, be far more satisfactory to
all parties interested than the present one,
and would relieve the President of much
embarrassment.
