AN ADVANCE IN OHIO.
Buckeye Operators Receive an In
crease of 2 1-2 Cents Barrel.
WAS A SURPRISE TO THE TRADE.
Indications Point to Pool Northeast Of
the McCurdy Field.
LIGHT WELLS REPORTED YESTERDAY

The following special telegram was re-
ceived last evening by The DISPATCH
from Findlay, O.:
Findlay oil operators were made happy
this morning by the very unexpected an
nouncement from the Standard Oil Com.
pany that the price of Ohio crude had been
advanced to 371t cents, q raise of IN cents.
There had been nothing to indicate any
such raise. This is the highest point that
Ohio oil has reached in two years.
The history of the various fluctuations is
quite interesting Six years ago oil
was quoted at 40 cents, and then
it slumped off to Is cents.
1t remained at that insignificant figure until
March 6, 1890, when it commenced rising
and went up by points until May of the
same year, when it reached 37x cents. The
price remained at 37L cents until October
g. 1890, when it gradually dropped back to
80 cents, at which figure 1t remained for IA
months. On the End of December last the
price was advanced to 321l cents, and the
next day to 25 cents, where it has since re-
mained. Operators confidently look for
a 40 cent rate in a few days. The Manhattan
Company is now paying the latter price.
Watching for New Pool.
The developments in the Mcdonald field
yesterday were not of such character asto
cause boom in that direction. The main
body of the pool has seen its day, but there
are still few spots where spurs are found
and which will probably all be developed
within the next three or four months.
The speer farm well of Aiken. Rider &
Stalry, northeast of McCurdy, made 40 bar
rels yesterday. Ii it keeps up this pace
there will be much more drilling done in
this end of the field. There are many oper-
ators who now believe that a little pool will
yet be opened mp between this well and the
Ohio river
Should such prove to be the case it will
make the Mcdonald field prorSr about 10
miles in length. This includes the McCurdy
pool, which was opened up by John NJ. Pat
tcrson about is months ago. 1t was through
this that the Mcdonald field was discovered,
although noS until nearly year later, when
some venturesome opeIptors, going on the
theory of 45-degree line to the southwest,
drilled around Mcdonald and struck the
golden pocket.
Thousands of dollars have been spent in
trying to extend the pool beyond Mcdonald
on o 45-degree line, but without success. 1t
stopped short at Mcdonald and has never
gone beyond. except in the case OF few
small wells

1--WE were now within two months of the

the billion-dollar Congress had appropri-

sible now to say-within a very small

800, 600, 600 would be expended before the
close of the present fiscal year.
Mr.. Dingley denied in the first place that
any such amount had been appropriated,
and in the second place asserted that the

would not exceed 500, 100000. The COM

Pleasures of Memory.

What q blessed thing is memoryI
How it brings up the pleasures OF the
past, and hides its unpleasantnesses
You recall your childhood days, do you
not, and wish they would return? You
remember the pleasant associations,
while the unpleasant ones are forgotten.
Perhaps to your mind comes the face Of
some friend. 1t was once a pale, sad
face. It showed marks of pain, lines Of
care. It seemed to be looking into the
hereafter, the unknown future. And
then you recalled how it frightened,
how it recovered its rosy hue, how it
became a picture of happiness and joy.
Do you remember these things? Many
people do, and gladly tell how the
health returned, how happiness came
back, how the world seemed bright.
They tell how they were once weak,
nerveless, perhaps in pain, certainly
unhappy. They tell of sleepless nights,
restless days, untouched food, I'M
strung nerves. And then they tell how
they became happy, healthy and strong
once more. You have heard it often in
the past, have you not? You have
heard people describe how they were
cured and kept in health. You certain
ly can remember what it is that has so
helped people in America. If not,
listen to what Mrs Annie Jenness Mil
Ter, who is known universally as the
great dress reformer, says: ''Six years
ago, when suffering from mental care
and overwork, [ received the most pro-
nounced benefit from the use of that
great medicine, Warmers Safe Cure"
All, now you remember. Now you re-
call how many people you have heard
say this same thing. Now you recOl-
lect how much you have heard of this
great Cure. Now you are ready to adj
nit that memory is usually pleasing,
that the highest pleasure comes from
perfect health, and that this great rem
edy has done more to produce and pro-
long health than any other discovery
ever known in the entire history of
| the whole world.

FIRE ON A SOUND STEAMER.

The City of Fitchburg Badly Damaged at

New BEDFORD, Mass, April 1.-THE
steamer City Of Fitchburg, of the Old Col
ony steamship Company, which arrived
from New York yesterday morning with
a miscellaneous cargo of freight,
w9s seriously damaged at her
dock this morning. When the matches
were OEened the decks hands encoun-
tered mass of flames and smoke.
The toward hold, loaded with cotton
and grain, was in flames, which spread
aft, around both sides of the engine
room and into the after hold, where the
miscellaneous merchandise was loaded.
Working Its way to the upper deck,
it Quilted the forward saloon and officers
rooms. The officers lost nearly all their
personal effects. The crews quarters in
the after part of the deck were also
damaged and the men lost most
of their property. Assistant En-
gineer Thomas Emerson stuck at
the pumps of the Fitchburg, surround
ed by burning freight and showered
with burning embers. The steamer is
insured and it is thought her cargo is
also. The damage has not yet been es-
timated, but it will be heavy.
The loss on cargo will reach from SIS, :

Unexpected Decline in Prices on the
Speculative Market.

Unexpected Decline in Prices on the
Speculative Market.
Chicago, H., April 11.-Wbeat was
excited and higher to-day with trading
OH large scale, and prices fuctuating
sharply. The littleIshmeIite short seller,
Edward Partridge, made pretense of
selling against the world, but it was no
tced that only two of hisavowed brokers
were IN the pit, and their actions, while
ostensibly bearish to distraction, we're
really decidedly circumspect. The I'M
lnfavorable condition of winter wheat
as shown in Washington statis-
tics was the chief factor in the
rise. The report would probably
have had far greater influence
and gone a great way to helping the
bulls humiliate Partridge in earnest,
but for news from across the wat er.
The trade was a good deal amazed at
the cables. Half the brokers in
clined to the opinion that the Liver
pool price had been "rigged" by
some interested operator on this side.
Saturday night the trade about unani-
mously conceded that the United States
government winter wheat report was
bullish. Cables were expected up as
u matter of course, They came almost
panicky. Liverpool prices were down
I'D Later arrived news that Corriman,
Phillips q Co., prominent grain house
of London, had failed and that other
failures were said to be imminent.
This was taken as largely explaining
the weak cables, though it was stoutly
asserted that the English trade were
playing the American government
report as more or less bear
ish card and suspicious of man
ipulat1on in the figures were
not wholly removed. The market for

An Entire Family Consumed in n Blaze

Fort MADISON, Ia, April 6.-Seven
people lost their lives in q fire which
broke out In the store of Mcintosh &
Pease at 1890 this morning. The build
ing was consumed, and the family of s.
V. Kitchen, living upstairs, seven in all
were burned to death. An explosion of
gunpowder prevented their escape.
At II 40 the building was discovered
on fire. About two minutes later a ter
rife explosion shook the building and
the flames burst out furiously. 1t is
supposed that some kegs of pow
der stored in the building
exploded and destroyed the mar
row stairs leading inside the build
ing from the second story, and thus
shutting out all hope of escape. The
dead are S. V. Kitchen, aged 50;
Mrs. S. V. Kitchen, aged 80; three
children, aged l, and 5 years; Miss
Sidney Day, sister of Mrs. Kitchen,
aged IS; August Knemeyer, boarder,
aged II; Henry Knemeyer, a boarder,
aged IS; Samuel Kitchen, brother OF the
owner, aged 20. The two latter
were taken out alive, but died
at 8 o'clock this morning. Seven
bodies were found in the ruins. Mrs.

Economy in Shoewear.

There are few things more 1nimical
to the lasting qualities of a shoe than
damp, either from an internal or ex-
ternal source. The natural moisture Of
the foot, or that engendered by bad
weather, should be absorbed by filling
the shoes with dry oats or fine paper,
which can be taken out the next day,
and after being dried be made again
available for use. When shoes are hard
they should be softened with paraffine,
and when they creak the soles should
be rubbed with linseed oil. An excel
lent way of making the shoe imperme-
able to snow and water is to let the sole
rest on dish containing small guam
tity of this oil. Another sure way of
making the soles waterproof is to heat
varnish and let them dry. The opera
ton should be repeated uutil the de-
sired result is attained.
