"A Pittsburg dispatch says A food
is feared by the riyermen, as the result
of the heavy snow that now covers the
whole western end of the State. A big
gorge at Parker, up the Allegheny
river adds to the danger of a possible
rampage of the rivers. Along the
wharf yesterday the possibilities of an
unusual rise were discussed with much
concern. The subject is almost the
only topic among rivermen and the
sun that shown out SO strong on a
storm swept country seemed to give
warning that the large quantity Of
snow on the ground would go off rapid
ly and with disastrous results.
The second deep well in the Waverly
| field, Barnsdall's we'll on Ingraham
has pretty thoroughly demonstrated
that there is oil in the deep sand.
This we'll, as we have stated before,
was drilled to the top of the sand some
days ago and was drilled in on Thurs
day. Reports from the field are to the
effect that the we'll has made several
splendid flows and that it will be a
splendid producer. If this proves to
be the fact it will stimulate develop
ments wonderfully in the deep sand.
The well on Lewis Ogdip continues to
make about SIS barrels a day, and half
a-dozen other deep wells are already
located and some drilling, in the same
locality. y.-Sentinel.
