trovcrsy-Tho Case Now Goes Back
to tho Tyler Circuit Court.

Tho famous legal controversy for tho
possession Of tho Williamson farm, alt.
uatcd on tho edge Of petroleum me-
tropolis, Sistersvillc, which was fought
in tho circuit court in Tyler county for
round or two and later transferred to
tho supreme court Of appeals at Charles
ton, has taken n now turn. Mr.. George
d. Caldwell yesterday received the fol-
lowing telegram from Charleston:
Court held Jones was owner In foo

interest Of Mrs. Williamson in tho resi-.
due. Captain Jones gets tho oil, OK.

The above shows m entire reversal OF
tho circuit courts decision, except rs to
scven'cightioths, and gives Captain
Jones Observation-Disclosures. This
case, say the lawyers. has embodied In
II several novel legal points which will
be shown in the opinion Of tho supreme
court which is expected to-day. 1t has
attracted great attention, rs it involves
property which is estimated to be worth
100000, on which arc located twenty
seven oil wells, costing $4,000. When
tho wells wero completed in juno last
yoar they were spouting at tho rate OF
700 to 500 barrels per day, and are still
going Mt n profitable ratc.
Tho plaintiffs in tho case arc Eliza
Williamson, ct al, hoirs OF David Kick.
man, deceased, and W. Ii. Gillospy,
assignee, versus Captain Joseph 7.
Jones, the well known oil operator.
Jones bought tho property in Deem
Der, 1891, at judicial salc. The heirs
brought suit in chancery in August, al
lcSins tho judicial sale to be invalid
and praying 1t be set aside. Judge I. ?.
jacobs granted the request for receivers,
who gave $4,000 bond, and also en-
Joined the pipe line from selling the oil
output OF the twenty.seven wells. At
the timo this was done there was very
little oil in tho pipe line, but ut present
it amounts to about 10000 barrels.
Captain Jones appealed from tho APP
pointment OF receiver, and from the
order Of tho court refusing an in
junction. Tho case went to the
supreme court OF appeals, and the de-
cision was rendered yesterday US re-
lated in the telegram quoted. Captain
Jones was represented by Caldwell &
Caldwell, Of this city, and Blackmiro &
Young, OF sistersville. while the heira'
interests were in tho hands OF Hon.
Jonn \. Hutchinson, OF Parkersburg,
J. II. Mccoy, Of sistersville, and 7. l.
