SPRING MILLINERY.
Jobbers Expect a Large Trnde-Throngs
of Indy Visitors mud Customers
From Near md Far

styles ana SnApess
The grand spring opening Of our wholesale
milliners which began on Tuesday and closed
to-day. has been a success despite the unfavor-
able weather. The idea of the three days
opening the first week of every March, is more
to display goods and show styles and shapes
than to sell goods The sales are expected
later on. Retailers, for circle OF ZoV miles
around. make it point to visit the city the nrst
week of March to view the prospect o er anu
post themselves on the seasons fashions.
Jobbers make it a point to display their goods
to the best possible advantage. and the display
this week eclipsed all former seasons.
Said representative of one of
onr leading jobbing firms;
"Our opening has been success. We have had
more visitors than in any previous season. The
number who came to our establishment was not
less than LOCO. While we did not make any
very large sales. considering the number of
visitors, we expect large results between now
and April. The fashion this season runs to
flowers more than for many years past. Straw
laces and fancy straw braids are also in demand
this season. Fancy ribbons and plaids in a
great variety of designs are also in demand. In
the line of hats, smaller patterns than last sea-
son are the fashion. The Western trade still
calls tor large hats, but for Pittsburg and I'M
mediate vicinity the rage is for smaller hats and
toques. Prices of hats and flowers are III to ~
per cent lower than last spring. Ribbons are
somewhat changed from last season and show
tendency toward higher prices, owing to ad-
vance in raw silk. In general, we are entirely
sdlsueu viii o.T spring opening anu Sonsluel
the outlook for big trade this season brighter
than it has ever been before"
Another leading jobber in millinery goods
thus expressed himself as to the opening and
outlook: We have had more visitors at this
opening than ever before. They came from all
the leading towns around. We had one
customer from Harrisburg who for years has
been of tho opinion that he could do better
here in the millinery line than in Philadelphia
On Tuesday there were not less than LOCO
visitors to our establishment and number of
very comfortable orders were placed. AS to
fashions the prospects are that the season
ahead is to be a flower and lace season. For
number of years past feathers have been promi-
be retired for a time to give place to flowers
and laces. The outlook for the jobbing
millinery trade is good in fact, il was never bet

A LITTLE STRONGER,
Oil Showing Recuperative Power-A Big
Transaction-FieIdD DEVELOPMENTS.

VII SHOWING hecuperat1ve POwer-A Big
nsaction-FieId Developments.
Oil opened yesterday at the closing figure of
the previous day. and which proved to be low
water mark. The first transaction and the
largest for some time, was the sale of %, 900
barrels cash oil by N. w. Stephenson to Lyman
& Harris at va. The regular market then
sold up to 81. Pittsburg bought in the fore
noon and again Just before the close, while
New York was selling This caused rally,
and the market closed steady. The extreme
range was: Opening, 927s; highest, 81; lowest,
927S; closing, 9315.
Messrs. Crawford & HammelI have been
awarded the contract for drilling the first well
of the Ellsworth Cooperative Natural Gas
Company. Drilling will be started at once.
The Wood Young well on the Dambach
farm, in the Hundred-foot district, came in
joins the Hundred-foot Oil Companys gusher
and started flowing at the rate of 80 barrels an
hour, increasing on this, however, to 100 barrels
an hour The Hundred-foOt Company'S well on
the Jacob Dambac farm has also increased its
production to l20 barrels an hour in spite of the
coming in of the Wood Young well, that was
expected to pull largely from it. The Lock
wood gusher has increased its output to nearly
1000 barrels day, the other two new arrivals
having no visible effect on 1t, although but
short distance away. This is big surprise to
gether in the Cable pool, and it IS astonishing
that they should have SO much phenomenal
outputs in view of this fact.
The Gilbert Oil Company's Clapp No. g. near
the northeastern corner of lot 169 in the Shelf
field field, reached the pay streak and started
flowing at the rate of ten barrels an hour
which it is keeping up.
The Porter Oil Company has completed a
deal by which it transfers lease on Lilo acres
Of land in the West Virginia field, known as the
Fisher track, to G. H. Coast & Son, of Olean,
n. Y, tor $4,000. The lease on n % acre tract
was sold yesterday for S35. .00O The Owens
well, three miles east of New Cumberland, is in
and flowing at the rate of 10 barrels day.
Operations have been commenced on the test
wells at Goose Greek, Stilwell and Burning
Springs AS all three points are on the oil belt,
but south of any previous DEVELOPMENTS it is
hoped to open up new territory.
