Pittsburg. Pa, April 1O.-Operators

The new field is beginning to attract

tors. Butler county was we'll repre-
sented to-day and a sprinkling Of Brad
ford talent mingled with the throng.
Those who went out with view TO
investing found about everything large
enough to- hold rig of the regulation
size tied up.
Some of the town lot leasers are will
ing 20 part with a small interest, but
the operator with money is looking for
bigger game.
The Conners & Co. we'll on the DreX-
He lot, which came in Thursday night
at 80 barrels an hour, was drilled a lit
lie deeper this morning and the prOduc-
ton increased to 75 barrels an hour,
but by evening had dropped back to 60.

Sistersville w. Va. April 10.-A spe-
cial dispatch from Indian Greek to the
Registers correspondent, received here
at six o'clock this evening, states that
Gaffey & Co S No .. on the Pitts farm,
which was being drilled deeper to-day
i'm the hope Of increasing its production.
had struck a better pay and increased
from 10 to 90 barrels an hour. The
well has been shut down for the pres
ent, but may be drilled deeper later as
it is believed that neither this we'll nor
the Pitts No. is deep enough to get the
large pay struck by the Devonian COM
pany on the Kyle farm.
Through an error the Carter Oil Co. s
well on the White farm was reported
yesterday TO be making 70 barrels an
hour instead Of IS barrels a day, which
1t was doing yesterday afternoon. 1t is
understood that the well has decreased
considerably in it's production and it is
not making more than 80 barrels a day
As stated, the we'll will be drilled
deeper in the hope Of increasing its
production.
Word received late this afternoon
from the Indian Creek district was to
the effect that the Pitts No. 4. which
was drilled in yesterday by Guffy & Co.,
had decreased considerably in its pro-
ductiOn and was only making a little
better than % barrels an hour
The same company's No. / has also
decreased somewhat in its production,
and to-day was reported to be making
between eight and ten barrels an hour
Up to a late hour this evening moth
ing had been heard from the South
Penn Oil Company's wells on the Hen
dersOn farm. which was expected to
reach the sand some time last night or
this morning.

DOWN IN THE CRASH.

The above caption is best expressive Of
the overwhelming defeat that the Democracy
of the country suffered in the great political
battle Of Tuesday last.
II cannot be termed landslide, an ava
lanche, nor cyclone, but great polar wave
that commenced In the frozen and rock
ribbed regions of the New England States
and increased In volume and strength until
its force was felt throughout the entire coun-
try, electing Mckinley by one of the most
astonishing msjorities in the history OF
American politics More than this, 1t has,
in all probability, placed both branches OF the
National Congress In full sympathy with
his views on the currency and tariff CUES
tons.
In order TO accomplish this desired end,
the active friends Of Mr.. Mckinley brought
into full play British and American gold, as
well as all the monied influences, monied
corporations and monied powers on the
continent.
II was the hottest campaign that the South
ever passed through. The verdict is re-
corded, McKinly elected, and the gold stan
dard triumphed. The SENTINEL supported
MIR. Bryan, because it regarded him as the
nominee of the Democratic party, and fur
Their that the necessities Of the hour de.
manded more money, which could have
been secured by the free and unlimited
coinage Of silver. The people have decided
otherwise, if the returns are correct, and the
will of the majority is the law of the land.
The American people love fair play, they
admire courage and they cheerfully bow
to the will Of the majority. They recog.
nize that while candidate belongs to but
one party, as the President, he is entitled to
the support Of every true friend of America.
Now, if the momentous issue has been de
cided, 1t is well 10 remember that we are all
Americans, and that all parties are anx-
ious 10 see the country prosper.
Let US remember that both parties are
made up of American citizens, and while
there are differences of opinion as to what
policy shall prevail in National affairs there
is no difference in the affection for the love
ofAmerican institutions.
During the coming four years the question
of fiaances and tariff are to be kept promi-
nently before the public, and that period
must consequently be one Of care and study.
In conclusion, let US hope for the best.
There is no reason why this grand and fer
tile country should not be always prosper
Gus and happy-ifit is not then 1t must be
the fault of those who control It's legislation.

cation, announced the forty-eight votes OF
the state for adjournment. hr. Harry
Donovan of Chicago. who has been BOies
man from the start. jumped up tochallenge
the accuracy OF the count.
His note OF defiance was received with
applause from the Chicago crowds in the
gallery, who understood the situation and
cheers followe each negative vote. Met
ropOiitan country delegates who had been
lukewarm in their obedience to the gov
ernor's will and restless in numerous oc-
casions, voted against adjournment The
vote was "a ayes, 1 nays, 13 absent.
Under the unit rule this vote was made
4S aye, but Mr.. Donovan and others dis
puted its correctness, shouting that it
took twenty-five votes to make a majority.
WHAT'S the. matter with Illinois now?'
inquired the chairman good naturediy
and closed the Incident by ruling in favor
OF the governor.
The audience followed the taking OF the
vote with s0ui;a much interest as II
had shown on the questions of the plat
form, and the bailotnr Tor PRESIDENTIAL
candidate. and whenever any delegation
voted mo" on the question OF adjourn
ment. the vote was greeted with loud
cheers.
However. when the call OF the roll had
proceeded far enough to show that the
motion for adjournment was to prevail.
the crowds, without waiting for the ter
mination of the vote, determined to stand
not upon the order OF their going. but 10
go at once" and so they began an informal
and rather tumultuOus withdrawal.
The clerk went on with the roll call
and did not always wait for a reply, but
set down the State as voting Aye and in
this way the result was arrived at, and
was announced as carried in the affinna-
tive.
The chairman then stated. at $50 p. IN.
that the convention was adjourned till 10
q. III. tomorrow. -
