SEATTLE, Wash, Aug. 2S.-A. II.
Eddy, OF Hartford, Wash, an ex-mem-
Der OF the state legislature. has returned
from Alaska. where he reports having
discovered two great petroleum wells In
the mountains not far from the cast
and within about 100 miles from Juneau.
He brought samples of crude oil, which
he proposes to have tested. There Is a
How OF 200 or 800 barrels daily from each
well, Eddy alleges, and he thinks It not
improbable that this section may rival
the great oil fields of Pennsylvania.
