Developed by the Carter Company;

Word was received In slgtcrsvllle late
yesterday afternoon to the effect that
tho Carter OIL Company had drilled In
Its well on the A. L. Corby farm, In tho
interior OF Tyler county, and that when
operated II would make not lcss than a
nifty barrel we'll. This well Is located
In an extension OF the territory tho Car
Ter Company has beer drilling for some
timc and makes things OF IN olcaglnous
nature In that section look pretty good.
Carter seems to thlnh pretty well OF 1t
judging from the fact that lie has sent
out quite n lot OF material for other
rigs So far US known there has only
been one now location made and II ID
on the u. Corbly farm, and the work OF
building the rig Is progressing rapidly.
The Donovan OIL Company has made
n location for we'll on the farm OF
Joseph Fair, In the bacl, part Of Tyler
county, and is busy putting UP the rig
which will be completed IN a few days
and drilling commenced.
Tho well drilled In by Galley G Sparks
on the CalebauBh farm. No. 0, has been
put to pumping and II Is reliably re-
ported to be making Mt the rate Of be-
tween twenty-five and thirty barrels
every twenty-tour hours.
Crawford & Treat are putting up n
rig on the J, W. Prior farm, to the north
cast OF tho Bcnwood development, and
In n few days will commence drilling.
This Is On important location as, II the
well comes In good. It will make a posi-
bic extension to the Bcnwoud pool.
This well viii be watched very closely
by the talent when II nears the sand.
It Is rank wildcat.
The Fhaher OIL Complny's we'll, on the
CehrS farm. mention OF which was made
IN these columns a couple OF days aEn,
Is still doidlng up NJ Its original produc-
tion. about 800 barrels, and is the best
well In that territory. The company has
put three-Inch tubing In this we'll, as the
smaller casing Is not large enough TO
carry the immense volume Of salt water
which ls produced with the OIL
over IN the Calebaugh territory Gull
bertson Is Schcll have drilled In a well
on the g. & G. LhhrI farm that will
make good twenty-five barrel producer
There are several wells drilling In this
territory, aud while It Is not expected
that they will be large producers they
VIII be large enough to pay out and
stu give the owner nice profit on his
investment.
a rig Is being built on the Straight
farm. In the Benwood pool. south o. the
present developments, and Il will be
test In that direction.
Along the river. about three miles
above Hannibal. on the Ohio side. well
Is being drilled In the J. Muhlcman
farm that Is a rank wildcat, and IL II
should come in producer will cause q
great deal OF excitement. Some three or
-FOUR years a6o n well was drilled near
this location, on what Is known as
Bnckhiil bottom. by company OF Gin
c!nnAtl People. which made good show
Ing or oil, but on account OF the great
quantity OF water the company could
NOT handle Il and the leases were given
up. Now the Carter and other compa-
MES have leased that territory and will
put down test wells.
The next well due IN the Benwood ter
ritory Is that OF Ramey & Co. on the
Stn!der farm. This well has been due
Tor eeVeral days, but on account OF Il
pelnG necessary to put In AZ. casing TO
shut the water of, It was DELAYED for
several days. II should reach the sand
to-day or the first OK next week. II Is
very important we'll. rs II Is quite n
distance east OF development.
There are quite q number OF new RIGS
going up on the farms at Benwool TINT
have already been defined, and the In
crease OF new work Is very heavy. II
10 estimated that there will be not less
than dozen new VETS startc,! there In
very short time.
There has been no change In the price
OF credit balances e!ncc Tuesday. but
there Is likely to be Mt any time. The
report OF the pipe line companies for
October. which Is Just out, shows tha,
there has been very little increase in the
stocks. and there Is every reason to be-
l!eye TINT there will be another advance.
although the price NAV drop point or
two first. but this Is not at all likely,
