An Experienced Man From Oil City on His
Way to the Scene.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.l
OIL CITY, Aug. 24-Daniel Fisher, chief of
the Oil City fire department, with large ex-
perience fighting oil fires, received mes
sage this morning requesting him to go to
Mcdonald, Pa, to extinguish, if he can, the
burning well of the Wheeling Gas Company
on the Cook lot. Mr.. Fisher has superin-
tended the extinguishment of the biggest
well fire of this kind in the PENNSYLVANIA
oil regions, namely, the Fisher Oil Com
pany's well on the Marshall farm at Thorn
creek. 1t was flowing at the rate of 5000
barrels day when it caught fire. and after
burning week was doing 5000 barrels when
the fire was extinguished. On that occa ston
MIR. Fisher says, it took two days to get in
readiness the required appliances, and when
they were ready but six hours were re-
quired to put out the flames.
Until he visits the well he cannot tell
what will be required in the present in
stance. He left this afternoon in company
with his brother, John j., for Mcdonald.

AGAIN IN PERIL.
WONG ARK TO ANSWER FOR sLAY-
ING HIS SLAVE.
The Willy Heathen's Second Trial Com
menced-A Difficulty in Finding I'm
prejudiced Jurors-A Chance of Con-
viction.

The case of the people against Wong
Ark, alias Gum Dock, who is charged
with the murder of his female slave
Goot Cue on April Goth last, was called
for trial for the second time before
Judge Mckinley in department six yes
terday morning. The previous trial
which was held before Judge Shaw in
the same department a month ago, re-
suited in disagreement of the Jury,
after great deal of alleged hard swear
ing on the part of the defendants wit
nesses, all of whom were Cinnamon
and several of whom have since been
arrested for perjury.
Seventy-fve men were called for the
regular term trial jury, which was to re-
port in department six yesterday, but of
this number six were absent, seventeen
could not be found and twenty-four were
excused. The remaining twenty-eight
were selected as jurors, and the work of
picking out twelve men to try the Wong
Ark case commenced at IL a. m.
District Attorney McLachlan and
Assistant District Attorney Phibbs, con-
Quoted the examination for the state,
and Ark was represented as on the pre-
vious trial by Judge Guthrie and Attor-
ney Jesse Hardesty. The defense asked
the talesmen whether they had read the
reports in the daily papers of events
having connection with the case which
had transpired since the first trial, and
whether such reports had biased their
opinions. If the talesman seemed to
have the slightest race prejudice he was
challenged, and the work of getting a
jury was therefore very slow. At the
hour of adjournment the following nine
men had been selected: James Booth,
G.. D. Clapp, Geo. w. Hazard, R. N.
Martin, s. L. Kellar, G. R. Shipway, M.
Meyer, S. 1. Mayo and G. d. Compton.
These jurymen were turned over to the
sheriff, and they will be kept in his GUS
tody till the termination of the triBl.
The prospects for conviction of Ark
are much better now than they were at
the beginning of the previous trial. The
prosecution has discovered new white
testimony, and the Chinese witnesses
who testified for the defense on the pre-
vious trial have been so frightened by
the arrest of some of their number for
perjury that they will be very careful.
