WOUND UP WEAK.
OIL Operators Not Disposed to Engage In
New Deals.

OIL Operators Not Disposed to Engage In
New Deals.
Weakness was about the only feature OF the
oil market yesterday. Refined advanced In
Europe, but it had no effect here. The
Standard. even, seemed to be taking rest.
Sheets were pretty well evened up, and there
was no disposition to enter into new deals with
holiday in sight. and SO near the end of the
week. The market openedat 81 05T, highest
81 061S. lowest 81 O454, closing 81 O5.
A broker remarked: THE market has been
playing some queer capers of late. It bobs up
and down without any particular reason, SO far
as can see think the Standard is pulling
the wires. 1t wants to wipe out the premium
for one thing. ana cheaper oil for another. II
left to itself the market would advance, not
withstanding field developments"
Reports yesterday were to the effect that the
wellon the Beagle farm, in the Shanopin feld,
the Raccoon Oil Company.
The Davis well in the CHARTERS field, although
not drilled in, was reported as keeping up
steady gait of 480 barrels a day. The Mis-
sionary No. on the Cope farm, in the Brush
Creek field, was doing $50 barrels.
Advces from St. Mary's W. Va, stated:
Two of the test wells drilling in this territory
have come in in the last "a hours The Wise
well, just across the line in Ritchie county,
struck the sand last night and is reported as a
15-barrel well The well on the Cochran farm,
near here, came in about the same time, a
strong 50-barrel gusher. Pittsburg operators
are now prospecting in Ritchie county, with
view of putting some wells down there.

what an Animated Young Woman HeIIoed

It occurred yesterday afternoon in down
town Office. A tall handsome brunette
tripped in, and, in the most pleasant kind
of a manner, asked for the privilege of using
the telephone. OF course. it was granted.
Hall OF the conversation which took place
is given, because circumstances over which
the reporter, who happened to be in, had no
control, prevent the other half from appear
ing:
.'Helio, Oentrall Give me No. -?'
"Hellol Is that Mr.. CO"

'sOh. Il don't matter. I'll admire you

still somewhat between seasons, and naturally
more o. less quiet at this period. Moreover
business at first hands is more advanced than
usual, and the market is consequently in ex-

SINEWS OF WAR.
An Active Movement In the Money Market
aud Rates Firm.

While there was nothing particularly new IN
local banking circles yesterday, the favorable
conditions previously noticed continued.
The demand for Accommodations was brisk
and rates were firm at 6@7 per cent-the maxi
mum to outsiders, which is causing something
of kick, but as there seems to be no remedy
for the discrimination just now, they must GRIN
and bear it. 1t is quite reasonable that regular
customers should be given the preference.

The installment plan of doing business is
getting to be wonderfully popular and COM
mon. Nearly everything from a house and lot
to bedstead or washboard can be bought on
weekly or monthly payments. At first sight
this plan would seem to be an injury to the
furniture trade and to the house building
trade, but no complaints to this effect are
heard. On the contrary, an opposite opinion is
generally held by legitimate dealers. The in
srallment men take class of trade that regu-
lar dealers cannot afford to handle.

Said q prominent business man yesterday:
1.-THE fact has often been commented upon that
the children of our former rich men are now
wealthy only where their money was left to
them invested in realty. Our values are at
present so reasonable that no one need make a
poor investment who will use ordinary pru-
dence and judgment One dollar invested
now ought to produce 81 within three years at
farthest. And in the meantime any investor
can sleep soundly, knowing as he must that his
investment has a solid foundation and that the
chances are ten to one that there will be no de-
cline whatever"

BEssEMER, Mich, November. IA
Reimund Holzhay, "Black Bart" or
trialfor the murder of Banker Fleisch
bein, of Belleville, ILL.,, and the robbery
of the Gogebic stage, took the stand in
his own defense today and made a con
fession. He admitted that he robbed
the Milwaukee and Northern train six
months ago, held up the Wisconsin Cen.
trail train at Cadott, Wis, a month later
and wsylaid the Gogebic stage and shot
Banker Fleischbien.
Holzhay said he worked on the Oconto
river for three years, and then desiring a
change went to Portland, Ore., for a
short time. He then went up to the
Puget Sound country, where he worked
in a mill for five months. He also spent
eight weeks in riding about the country
and was in the West altogether about
eight months. While in Washington
Territory Holzhay' said he was injured
by his horse falling upon him,
and that he laid unconscious for
sometime afterwards, and that
while his health previous to
this accident had been good, since it has
been bad. He could not describe Just
how it affected him, but it affected his
whole system, particularly his head.
Ordinarily he felt quite good, but these
bad spells would cone over him, and
would laet probably a day, sometimes
more. He said that during these spells
he felt strange but could not describe the
feeling. During such spells his actions
and any incident or occurrences taking
place at such times, weregall blank after
ward. He had several of these spells
since his capture, and probably had a
dozen or more since he was injured.
Holzhay said he remembered the day
He could not tell why he held up the
stage. Holzhay says he does not remem-
Der who was in the Gogebic stage. He
bein or the driver, and failed to identity
the watch and pocketbook said to belong
to Flesehbein. He claimed he had
pocketbook until his attention was called
to it by Howell.
The prosecuting attorney frustrated the
piisoIioT 5oIueWuab WHeu uo Salu. why
did you carry two guns, knowing you
were liable to have one of these spells at
any time and shoot somebody ?"
Holzhay seemed somewhat staggered
by the directness of the question, but re-
Piled 81 carried the revolvers to pro-
tect myself from wild animals in the
woods, and did not like to leave them
anywhere, as I might not find them
again"
Holzhay was the only witness called
for the defense. When he had con-
cluded the defense rested.
