Over six Hundred Barrels.
Special Dispatch 10 the Ia,e,liJeRetr.
MANSISdroN,W. Va, Sept. 3.-To.day
Warrington rivals the Pennsylvania oil
field. The streets are thronged so mucl,
that the new Gomers have full sway and
the native element is lost in the mids.
Of excitement OF oil information given to
tho public from this oil field. None has
been 30 great as that given to-day, and
none 80 bright to the producer. The
Rose Company well, on the Dancer
farm, adjoining the lots OF Burt number
two, and Daisy number one, responded
to-day and Is flowing at the rate of $50
barrels in twenty.four hours. So with.
in n stones throw Burt's Daisy number
one producing GO barrels, Burt number
two producing $40 barrels, Burt Tygart
number one producing 200 barrels,
showing production o! ,2S5 barrels BY
tho four wells in 30 small territory.
Along side OF My Dear Fannie rum-
Der one, whose record is known, Smith
number two tapped the sand and is vari-
ously estimated from $50 to 200 This
we'll is near the Blackshere- McGraw
Company, and triangle shape to the
three acres, both OF which are drilling at
between 900 aud 1000 feet. The Logan
Oil Coupany's well on the Hawkins
farm will be showing by tomorrow.
Morgan, Beatty, McGraw K Co.'s well, it
ia understood, will be shot, hoping to
add to the production. The Frog Pond
we'll is still showing up in paying guam
titles. The well on the Erwin tract is
now being worked after so long time
fishing for tools, which lay within fifteen
feet OF the first pay streak.
Gilmore and Bsnuett's number one
on the Dancer farm has rig completed
and spuddinv will commence ut once.
This adinins Furbee number one, owned
by the same people and producing 70
barrels. The derrick is near completion
on the Sine land q miles north Of town,
aud will be drilled by the South Penn
company. News from the John kendy
number one can be looked for the com.
ing week, and the fate OF this " ell is be.
ing watched, as it will carry with it the
fate OF prophecy and geology on Mods
run. The well on the Amos farm is still
showing at 10 barrels. The Mckee well
on the Beatty number one, Mod run. is
now spudding. There are but few wells
now drilling iu the field, but they are
going smoothly along, few still having
fishing jobs. A great amount OF gas is
flowing from the Frog Pond well. Il.
could be piped to family homes, and it
would be paying investment to the
company which owns the we'll.

AGAINST FREE SUGAR.

Asa practical farmer and farmers son,
Mr.. Edmunds thought that the farmers
in the region where he lived understood
that sort OF business, and were not cx.
tremely anxious that he, as one OF their
Representatives. should 60 into anything
OF that sort now. Ii tho duty of two
cents pound were now taken of sugar,
he did not believe that the price OF
sugar would fall two cents pound. 1t
would be apt to turn out as coffee had
turned out. He did not want TO be led
into putting sugar on the free list on
what he believed 10 be the fallaoious and
delusive idea, that because sugar vas
now two cents pound cheaper in Lon.
don that in New York, itwould then be
the same price in both places. But even
ii the wholesale price OF sugar did tall by
means OF the removal OF tho duty, the
price Gt the grocsrs would not fall,
Somebody else than the consumer
would make the nancy.

Senate this morning Mr.. Call offered q
resolution, which was referred TO the
Committee Oh Foreign Relations, declar.
ing that the murder OF General Bar.
rundia, on the steamer Acapulco, by
the authorities of Guatemala, while un.
der the protection Of the 1ag OF the
United States, was an insult to the peo.
pie OF the United States, and demanded
prompt action Ly this Government for
the redress of the injury and for aecu.
rity against the recurrence Of such ont.
RACES.
The tariff bill was then taken up-the
sugar schedule being under consiiera.
tion-snd Mr.. Edmunds addressed the
Senate. Coming TO the question of re.
ciprocity, Mr.. Edmunds recalled the his.
tory and the practical operation-;n-
jurious, as he claimed, 10 this country
OF the Canadian reciprocity treaty OF
1854
He spoke OF the reduction OF the duty
on coffee, three cents pound, in 1872,
and stated, on the authority Of the
American Minister to Brazil, that as soon
as that reduction was known at Rio
Janeiro the price OF coffee there was put
up three cents pound. The same
thing occurred, he said, two years after.
wards, when coffee WAS put on the free
list. Experience had shown, from that
day to this, that the American consumer
had protited nothing whatever from the
taking off Of that duty but, on the Other
hand, the United States had lost nearly
Sl50. 100000 which it would have re-
ceived from the duty on Brazilian coffee
alone.

On motion Of Mr.. Al1rich, II was or.
dered that a recess bo taken from 5:3C

Mr.. Morgan addressed the Senate In
support OF tho amendment heretofore
proposed by him as n substitute for Mr.
Aldrich's reciprocity amendment. II
provides for II duty OF 3 per cent. nd
valorem on corn, wheat, rye, barley,
oats, hay, straw, potatoes, cotton, live
domestic animals, and on asses, mules
aud horses; and that when any OF such
articles are exported premium OF 8 per
cent. shall be paid on their valuc to the
owner. lie opposed the reciprocity
amendments aud said the elect OF them
would be surrender 10 Great Brilaiu,
because they would apply to sugar,
molasses, hides and coffee, all Of which
were largely produced In British colo.
mica.

He compared the Senator who support.
ed the pending bill, hut who withdrew
from tho Senate Chamber when its
iuiquities were being exposed, to the
rapacious crow who stole his corn, but
got away. without. listening to the argu.
meut OF the farmers shot gun. The bill,
