GOV. LowRY's EFFORTs.

Disappointed at Sulllvan's Release-Hand-
some Rewards stim offered.
JACKSON, Miss July 11.-After the
arrest Of John L. Salhyan and party at
Nashville to day, it was thought by Gov.
Lowry they could be held until requisi-
tion papers and officers reached there.
This hope vanished, however, when tel
egram from Gov. Taylor was received this
evening saying Sullivan had been released
on a writ Of habeas corpus. Gov. Lowry
then telegraphei points beyond Nashville
to arrest Sullivan and party, but to which
no response has yht been received.
The Kilrain party are also being pursued
with a chance OF capture. They are chang
ing their original route A handsome re-
ward is offered for the capture of both
parties and their delivery TO the State Of

Gov. Lowry intends to prosecute all per
sons party to the ofiense, but gives no
names at present, though it is believed the
referee OF the fight and officers of the
Queen and Crescent are among them. The
latter afforded accommodations to and
from the battle ground and afterwards

CAMPAIGN IN OHIO.
Hon. Jas. E. Campbell Candidate for the
Democratic Nomination, Interviewed.

Hon. Jas. E. Campbell Candidate for the
Democratic Nomination, Interviewed.
DEER PARK, Md, July 10.-Hon.
James E. Campbell, of Hamilton, O., is
here with his wife and family spending
the summer. He has rented one of the
hotel cottages and is enjoying life as it
only can be enjoyed on the mountains.
Mr.. Campbell is an object Of interest to all
visitors as the probable candidate Of the
Democratic party for Governor Of Ohio.
He is spending his time chatting with his
friends and getting in shape for the COM
ing fight. He expects to leave next week
for Ohio. but will run back whenever he
gets time TO do so.
In On interview with a reporter to-day
he said: "The convention will be held in
August, and my friends are pushing my
candidacy vigorously. The chief OBJ
lection that is urged against me is that
am not free trader and am Randall
Democrat. l voted against the Mills bill
because there were certain local interests
which were affected by it. / was in favor
of the principle of the Mills bill and would
have voted for it had it not been for the
pressure from my district. So l think this
charge against me will fall to the ground. "
g How do you consider the chancesf"
was asked.
1--WE hope to have light vote polled ell
over the State; whenever this happened
theirs has al gays been a Democratic major
ity. Then the principles for which we
fight will help us"
"Who is the Democratic candidate to
succeed Senator Psynt?"
1--WE will make fight for the Lsgisla-
ture, and if we can carry it will send Mr..
Pendleton to the Senate"
This is the plan of the Democrats in the
coming Ohio campaign. They are count.
ing on dissfft ctions between Sherman and
Foraker. How vain that hope is was
shown only yesterday, when a friend of
Senator Sherman received letter from
him. The Senator says in it that he will
be back in September and at once take
the stump for the entire State ticket. He
will do everything in his power to secure
the election of Gov. Foraker ard Repub-
lican Legislature. Secretary Window has
taken quarters at the Deer Park Hotel and
will spend the greater part Of the summer
here.

THE STRIKE AT CARNEGIE's.

Ne Serious Trouble So Fav--Preparations
for 1t.
PITTsBURG, July 11.-A party of thir-
ty-one nou-union men left this city this
morning for Homestead, 10 work in the
Carnegie steel plant at that place. When
the train arrived at Homestead it was sur
rounded by an ominOus crowd of strikers,
which frightened the new men so badly
that only three succeeded in getting in
side the mill. The others ran away, close
ly followed by the strikers, crying "scab, "
but no stones were thrown or blows struck,
and no one was injured. The aspect of
affairs is serious and touble is looked for
within the next few days.
President Weihe and Secretary Martin,
of the Analgamated Association, have es-
tablished headquarters at the scene and
will do all in their power to prevent disor-
der. The Sheriff has notified the men to
keep away from the Company's properly
under penalty Of farrest. The firm is max
ing preparations to start the plant and
will resume operations IS soon as enough
men have been secured.
All was quiet at Homestead tonight, no
attempt having been made to bring non
union men to the steel works sincs morn
ing. The strikers had pickets out and
every street leading TO the plant was
guarded. Sheriff McOsndle5s posted
proclamation this afternoon warning the
strikers not to congregate on the streets or
premises of the company.
The officials Of the Amalgsmated Asso-
ciation had conference with the Sheriff
TO ascertain how far the strikers could 20
in using moral sulsion to induce the new
men to stay awap. They proposed that
committee be allowed to board the trains
and state their side of the case TO the nom
union men, and if they still persisted in
going to work they would not be moleeted.
The Sheriff refused to consider the propo-
sition and said no interference with the
new men would be permitted.
The feeling among the strikers is very
bitter. An unknown mau who had gone
10 work was assaulted this evening, and
severely beaten, but the strikers disclsim
any knowledge of it. A large posse OF
deputy sheriffs will be sworn in tomorrow
and placed about the compsny's property

A PROMISING REGION
Where on and Gas Can be Most Likely
Pound.
WASHINGTON, D. O., July II.

WAohANhA'Ni ~ VI July IL
To TIE Editor ofI Register:
SR:-While oil spectators are pntting
up deIricks in every nook and corner OF
the northern Pan Handle of Wet Viz
ginis, yet they overlook one very inn
portant, and it would seem from geological
research, valuable piece Of territory.
Leaving the B. & o. Railroad at Elm
Grove and passing up Big Wheeling creek
about ten miles or to Uncle Joe Sheppard's
farm, one passes through territory which
is undoubtedly oil or gas territory, or
perhaps both. The first land that inn
presses one strongly as being oil lands is
at the Downey and Davis farms and then
at the old Handlan mill farm; the rook-,
the hills aud the general appearance of
the land are indicative Of both oil and gas.
But the place that indicates most
strongly that oil exists beneath
the surface, is at the mouth
of Birch run, on the Uncle
Joe Shepherd farm. This farm will
be well remembered by many Of your
townsmen, such as ex-Sheri1 Brown, Col.
ShAllcrOss and many Others who enjoyed
the hospitality Of the clever old West Yir-
ginian. Some Of the farmers in the vicin-
ity Of this farm claim that oil can be iound
along some of the small streams. 90
this farm and in its vicinity can be seen
rocks which seem to be duplicates of those
found in the Parkersburg, W. Va, aud
Oil City, Pa, regions. BY looking at maps
OF West Virginia and Pennsylvania and
drawing line from Oil City to the Park
ersburg oil region, it will be found to pass
through the Washington county oil field
and through the part Of Marshall county,
W. Va, occupied by the basin Of big Wheel
ing creek. Prof l. @. White, the eminent
geoloRist Of the West Virginia University,
says that the trend Of the great oil pools in
Pennsy lvania, Just north OF Marshall
cunty, takes the belt ofoil sands and depos-
it's down through Marshall county, and If
systematically sought for along Big
Wheeling creek oil and gas will be found
in paying quantities This region has not
been carefully examined for the simple
reason that there was no railroad and IL
was seldom that any one passed over this
country except hunters and farmers who
occupy the lands.
Here, it seems, is the place to test the
territory lying contiguous to Wheeling.

The scheme Of consolidation was pro-

bling in general outline the plan followed
in Eaglish syndicate breweries, it differs
from them in the fact that the money ell

said to-day that it was proposed by the in
vestors to allow the plan of the English
capitalists in buying up private corpora
tiOns, forming them into limited liability
com panies, and placing the stock on the

the brewers has engaged to manage his

THE POSTAL TELEGRAPH.
1t is the Subject of Long Committs

It is the Subject OF q Long Committee
Meeting.
The Council Committee on Ordinances
met at the City Hall, last evening, to hear
the report Of the subcommittee, appointed
at previous meeting, TO confer with the
Postal Telegraph authorities, relative TO
the entrance Of that company into the city.
Mr.. 0'Ksne, from the subcommittee,
narrated the fact of his conference with
the telegraph authorities, and outlining
the provisions of the ordinance mutually
agreed upon. This opened the discussion.
Mr.. Handlan took very strong grounds in
favor OF clearing the streets of all poles and
wires. He called attention to the nuisance
the wires and poles were, besides being a
source ofdanger in time Of fire. and said
he would like TO see all existing poles
pulled down. While holding this view,
he said he was anxious to see the Postal
Company enter the city as free from en-
cumbrances rs possible.
The discussion was carried out on these
lines, and members thought the time was
rife for action looking to the removal of
the membranes from the streets. In de-
batting this, it was stated the Western
Union had no legislation allowing il a
right of way over the streets, and had
merely pre-empted the use Of the streets.
The statement WAS also made, in reply

could be made put it's wires under ground,
for there WAS clause in their ordinance
by which the city had the right to amend
or repeal, and it was thought the new or
dinance ought to be gotten up in the same
way.
This representative of the Postal Tele-
graph Company, Mr.. Waterman, was called
upon for his views, and said his company
had underground wires in New York,
Philadelphia, Chicago, Pittsburg, and
other places, and it cOuld, Of course, be

difficulties had been surmoun;ed, and the
only reason the Company was reluctant to
90 into Underground arrangements was the
item of expense. He said bil company,
entering the city at the extreme north end,
would have TO run long distance under
ground, while the Western Union, having
railroad right of way, would only have a
very short distance to Tup, namely from
the depots to the cl1ice. He did not know
that the Western Union bad made these
claims, bat they would make them in case Of
trouble.
City Solicitor White said if the Company
tried that on, they might get into trouble.
The railroads only bsd a right OF way, and
the city could exercise control.
After an extended discussion, the COM
mittee instructed City Solicitor White to
draw an ordinance admitting the Postal
Company to the city with the largtat pos
sible liberty, but the ordinance to reserve
as much power as possible to the city,
looking to future changes.

The high court, he said, was a parody on

Tne President of the Chamber called M.

The President then proposed that the
House refuse the speaker a further

to resume his seat. He declined, however,
to leave the tribune. An uprosr arose and
the President left the Chamber, while the
public galleries were cleared. The sitting

from the chamber. The sitting was closed

mained on the tribune until six
