FINDLAY, o., April l7.-Ohio oil ha>
made another advance OF 10 cents on
the barrel, and the price l. now more
than double that OF a week ago. A. an
evidence of the fact that oilmen believe
the higher prices have come to stay, 1t
is stated that Mr.. {. c. Harris. one of
the largest producers. made an offer to
the Genessee OIL company TO take Its
entire production for the next three
months at the same figures. The offer
was declined. Mr. Harris has located
ten new wells since last Saturday and
expects to have 30 new producers with
IN a month. Other leading producers

GREYTOWN Is SAFE.

the Town.
GRESHAM HAS FILED no PROTEST.
she Question of Great Britain Usin. War
like Means to Collect Indemnity Has
Not Been Raised - Nicarasua's Reply
Not Pleasing To the British.

LONDON, April LIT is stated OH
good authority that the question of Il
protest upon the part of the United
States against the bOmbardment of
Greytown and the landing of British
troops IN Nicaragua has never been
raised between Great Br tain and the
United States 50 far as the British gov
ernment Is aware.
in any case. it is added, the British
viii not lombard Greytown in the event
of Nicaragua refusing to comply with
the demands of Great Britain Bat
steps Will be taken 10 insure the pay
ment of the indemnity demanded 10y
the British government and the neces-
sary orders have been sent 10 command
ers of British warships. But the nature
OF the orders sent To the British com
manders and whether they include the
landing of roOps Is not stated.
Nicaragua's reply to the ultimatum
of Great Britain L. substantially correct.
The reply, however, falls very short of
Great Britain : demands. The British
ultimatum demanded reparlt.on for the
expulsion of Mr.. Hatch. the British
consular agent. and for the personal in
jury sustained by British subjects, and
the appointment of commission TO ar
bitrate the amount of damage done TO
the property of British subjects, etc,
indicating the composition of the com
mission and stipulating that no AmerI-
can should he chosen a. Il member.
Nicaragua now seeks To refer the
matter To an impartial commission of
arbitration, apparently ignoring the
main demand respecting the expulsion
of Mr.. Hatch. The foreign Office is uu-
able TO state now what Great Britain ;
course will be. as the position Is ex-
tremely delicate, but, apparently, Great
Britain can. without loss of dignity,
accept such a compromise as Nicaragua
suggests. The foreign office has re
ceived no Information and dIscredits
the report that the United States has
indicated objections to the bombarding
Of GreytOwn or the landing of troops.
