OIL INDUSTRY IMPROVING
Assurance Of Immediate Transport stion
Helps Thln1s Today


Helps Things Today
Now that the e8change has announced
the probability of soon closing contract
with some of the numerous companies
which are figuring on the transportation
problem. oil men have begun with ronew-
ed activity to extend their operations and
open new districts whero oil is thought
to exist. 1t will not be long now until
every we'll in the field issin operation and
the derricks now standing idle will be
working in opening new ones. There are
indications everywhere Of renewed con-
fidence in the future OF the oil industry.
Oil that could have been purchased few
days ago &C nominal price Is being held
for the expected rise which will follow the
orening of the northern markets.
Drilling was begun IN tue Doneney well
on Figueroa street this morning. The
derrick has been standing IN readiness for
work several weeks and the activity now
shown Is taken as a fair indication of the
approach of better times in the oil field.
II is reported that the Powell well has
been offered for sale. There were several
at the property today watching the
the new tank with which it has recently
been connected.
Magee & Co. are having a new tank
built adjoining their wells on West State
street. The we'll is nearing the sand and
will probably be ready to begin pumping
in few days.
A great deal of interest is shown in the
electric rig that is being put up on the
corner of Belmont avenue and lockwood
street. 1t is the first attempt in this
field to drill with electricity. Work will
pr obably commence within week.

HEART FAILURE
Three Years of Loneliness Tore Ths
Than Enough


Than Enough
Kate G. Garner versus J. A. Garner was
the title Of suit for divorce in depart
ment one of the superior court yesterday
morning. The fair plaintiff was the first
witness and her testimony disclosed the
facts that the parties were married at San
Bernardino in 1887. That her husband,
J. A. Garner, had considerable property
but hau used but very little OF 1t for the
support of his wife; that Ishe had been
compelled to support herself while living
with her husband. In January, 1893, he
sent plaintiff to Denver. Colo. saying
that he would meet her there, which he
not only failed to do, but basely deserted
her and left her without cent. She has
supported herself by her own efforts ever
since. She was employed at the last ses-
sion of the state legislature and is nov
residing with her mother in this CITY.
The testimony of the plaintiff was fully
corroborated by her mother, Mrs. Kelly,
who emphasized it by saying that the
half had not been told, and certain it is
that only one side of the story was told,
whether hall or not, as the decree was
taken by default.

BOSTON, July 25, 1S95.-Elizabeth Per
kins, better known as "Liz" Finnegan

most noted women of the criminal class
in this section of the. country, died yes
terday, aged about 40. This woman
had lived by crime for twenty years
She has been charged with having held
up men late at night and robbing them
and with many cases of larceny and
numerous assaults. At one time she
threatened to take the life, of the late
Inspector, Thomas Gerraughty.
sLiz" Finnegan, in 1SS3 caused the
death of Bernard j. Mahan of Boston,

sentence in the House of Correction.
She stabbed him with a hat pin because
he refused to drink with her. She
stabbed another man with a pair Of
scissors, but he recovered. Her nus

PHoNOGRAPH FORBSHADOWED.
The MAN who Did This 900 Years

In a communication Dr. Frank L..

ings the marvels of a later era in the
worlds affairs. OF all the latest WON

he says, would seem to be at least one
that was not subject to the dictum OF

to help him while away the hour, some
books to read. The books, however, are
different from any seen on earth They
are, in fact, little boxes, which Cyrano
thus describes:

words and sounds which serve the Grand
Lunaires for language.

FIRE SALE MERCHANT IN TROUBLE
He Fails to Pay the Money He
Borrowed,

Daniel Berger is an enterpr1slng Jew
who keeps a fire sale" clothing store ON
First street, Hoboken. Some time ago
he bought SAG worth of cheap clothing
from Solomon Reltmann, New York
wholesale clothing dealer. Berger repre-
sented himself TO Reitmann as being the
possessor of a large amount of property
ard having a large bank account. He
therefore got the goods on credit.
Retmann waited patiently couple OF
months for his money, thinking it was
only an oversight on the part of the
wealthy '.golding' dealer of Hoboken.
Then he asked Berger for the $46, and
Berger told him another fairy tale OF
how he ''goost bald Won dous and tollars.
put would shureley Civ him de mooney
next week."
That was several weeks ago, and
since then Reitmann has been getting
fairy tale from Berger every week" in
stead of the SAG.
So a few days ago Reitmann called
upon Counsellor John l. Weller and had
the counsellor take action against Ber-
ger to recover the money
Counsellor Weller went before Re
corder McDonough and had a warrant
issued for Berger's arrest upon the
charge of securing goods under false pre-
lenses and also that of swindling.
Berger heard of the warrant and
SUDDENLY left town. He called at Police
Headquarters this morning in company
with his counsel and surrendered himself
He gave bail to appear for examination.
