T-nde of the Week Fairly Satfsfac.
tory, Weather Considered

Trade of the Week Fairly Satisfac-
tory, Weather Considered.
All things considered, the trade of the
week ending Feb. 2 was all that could be
expected. For two weeks the weather has
been unusually cold for Indiana and Illinois
and this has more or less checked business,
but an early Improvement is looked for, az,
with the reduction in east-bound rates TAX
ing effect Monday, the shipments of grain
will be larger, and this will set money NOV
ing again. Travelling men report stocks low
which means that retail merchants will
soon begin to stock up more freely. In
prices, last week, changes were few. Coffee
advanced &c, poultry 11sc. eggs 4c, apples soc
a barrel. On the other hand oranges de-
clined soc a box, lemons about the same and
all kinds of vegetables carry an easier tone.
The leather market is active. The iron mar
ket is active, while hardware men speak of
business as being quiet.
The local grain market, the after part of
the week, became more active, still there is
large room for Improvement. Corn and oats
are In fair request. while all offerings of
wheat are readily taken. Track bids, yes

not in the way directed and he was
asked to try it again. To this he gave
no attention and an inspector called
on him and gave full directions how
be should make reports on the matter
desired by the department. But the
colonel did not comply with the request,
and then the department asked him
to make returns. To this last demand
of the department the colonel made re-
ply, the letter arriving this morning.

Orial Will take the form of a statue
Sculptor Parks is understood to favor
the full figure mold rather than a mere
bust, and those who have taken up the
matter rely largely upon his profess
ional judgment.
This movement has grown out Of the
desire to have in permanent form a.
tribute to the memory Of a man whose
integrity and attachments contributed
grand page to national history As
one of the most important means 10
this end ii is necessary that the facial
representation of the late secretary
should be perfect in every detail. No
ordinary likeness, such as generally
comes from carving or molding feat

ure, will answer
1t is not enough that the bust or
statue should look like Mr. Gresham.
This would not satisfy either Parks or

CAN'T STEAL OIL BY PUMPING.
Important Decision in Ohio Regards
Boring for Oil on Leased Land.

Important DECISION IN OntO h kSegaEOS
Boring for Oil on Leased Land.
Findlay, O., June 6.-The most i'm
portant decision rendered for years af-
fecting rights of landowners who have
leased their properties for oil produc-
ton was delivered today by the Han
cock circuit court, Judge Seney presid-
ing. In 1889 John F. Hastings leased
his farm of 165 acres to the Ohio Oil
company IA branch of the Standard),
with a provision that all wells should
be drilled within three years. The COM
pany drilled seven wells and then rest
ed, but having acquired all the adjoin-
ing territory developed it and let Hast
ing'S land in large part remain idle.
He wanted his land drilled to get the
royalty. Last fall he gave T. c. Kelly
lease to put down eight wells, all to
be upwards of 900 feet from the Ohio
Oil cOmpany's wells. When Kelly be-
gan drilling the oil company obtained
an injunction. The case finally reach
ed the circuit court, where two days
were occupied in the trial. The court
holds that the seven wells drilled by
the Ohio Oil company were not suf-
ficient development of Hastings lands,
and the company was bound by an i'm
piled contract 10 produce all the oil
possible from the land instead of drain
ing the oil by wells on adjoining lands,
as had been done. The injunction was
therefore dissolved and Kelly will de-
velop the lands. AS there are many
thousands of acres of rich oil territory
