OF the mortgage, staying the Sheriff's writ
of sale. This action gives until next March,
which gives the committee three months
time in which to raise $27, 900 necessary to
liquidate the indebtedness. AS So, 900 were
provided for by two weeks work, little fear
is expressed of ability to raise $1,000 a
month. Of the amount necessary to satisfy
the debt $50, 900, there is provided including
the $1,000 bequest of William Thaw,
$39, 600.
The committee has project in view BY
which it is expected that the matter can be
arranged without any further cause for
worry, and it is we'll convinced that people
who have had power to make trouble are not
disposed to do So Once cleared of the IN
cubus there is no doubt the property can be
so managed as not only to make the library
self-supporting but also yield rev enue as
sured that will allow it to extend its sphere
of usefulness.

OIL AND GAS MATTERS.

| The Philadelphia COmpauy's Big Guaher-
Oliver Bros. Strike n Gas welI-UnIou-
town Natural Gas Playing Out.
On Thursday the Philadelphia Gas Com
pany struck strong oil well in the Hick-
ory region, near Taylorstovn. The COM
pany was boring for gas, but is satisfied to get
oil. Superintendent T. A. Gillespie could
not give the capacity of the we'll in barrels,
but be was pleased to say it was a spouter
of good dimensions. The report of the strike
has turned the head of the farmers, and the
oil land lessees are doing some lively skirm-
ishing.
Oliver Bros. have struck fine gas we'll
in the Bellevernon field, not far from their
other two wells. 1t dropped in on Sunday
last, and is by this time turned into their
line from Bellevernon to the Southside.
The newcomer is very strong, and gives the
firm an ample supply of gas for all contin-
gencies.
At Uniontown, Pa, the Thompson Glass
Company is sinking a well inside their
works, and hope to strike it rich. The
Rider well is weakening, and we'll which
was bored to the same depth of sand, and
not over 200 feet from the Rider well, failed
to respond yesterday, although it should
have if the conditions were all right. 1t was
stated by reliable resident OF Un1ontown
that very serious fears were prevailing as
to the permanency of the field. 1t may be
said that in the Bellevernon field no trouble
is experienced from water, while the reverse
holds good at Uniontown.
There is a verv decided revival of interest
in what is regarded as the Brush creek oil
sand extension, northeast of Sewickley.
Lidecker & Csmpbell's well, on the Rhodes
farm, is thought to be good for 150 or 175
barrels day, and the Snee, Burchfeld &
Co. well on the Jones farm 100 barrels day.
These holes are only a short distance east of
the original Duff farm well.
Interest has also been revived in the
Connoqenessing district where the W. H.
Christie well on the Kuoff farm, after the
owner thought of abandoning it. began
doing $50 barrels day, and is still making
over 200. There is some trouble from salt
water, which has been the blight of the 100
foot-sand producers, but there is now no
doubt that in time means will be found by
which salt water can be shut out and petro-
leum given a better show.
Lilly, Thompson & Co.'s No. 1, on the
Shannon farm, and the United Oil and Gas
Trust No. 1, on the Walker
farm, Saxonburg field, are expected to prove
good producers.
The McCalmont Oil Company's No. 2,
Core farm, Mt. Morris, is making so bar
rels day.

NOT ENOUGH MONET.

Superintendent Malone Says S249, 6OO
Won't Finish the New POstOflce.
Superintendent Malone, of the Federal
building. expressed the opinion yesterday
that the amount which Secretary Window
asks Congress to appropriate to finish the
building, SPAS, 900, is rather small He
does not say, however, that it may not be
enough. The appropriations already made
add up s., ,25O, 600, and if the sum wanted by
the Secretary is granted, the whole cost of
the edifce will be just about 81 500, 900.
The greater part of the money is paid in
Maine, where the building is really made.
1t is only put together here like playhouse
of blocks. The superintendent says that
he expects to begin the construction of the
roof in about three weeks.
