Oil MARKET AND FIELD
GOOD FEELING AND STIFF PRICES
PREVAILING
Flow Of the New Strike Will Probably
Be Light-New Wells and Tanks
Going Down and Up

The shut. down of the oil wells con-
tinues throughout the fields, the order
being observed not only by members Of
the producers combination but also by
some of the non-members as well.
A marked Improvement in the market
demand and q stiffening price is notice.
able in consequence, together with con-
siderable increase in sales, large offers
to buy and refusals to sell at less than
market rates.
The producers claim that they have
sold 1900 barrels during the past week
and for other concerns sales Of about
5000 barrels. and that the Standard Of
fered to buy $4,000 barrels at 60 cents.
The Santa Fe was the heavy buyer dur
ing the week.
No scare Is now felt lest heavy flow
may be struck in the new field tapped by
Scott G. LOTUS on Brooklyn avenue near
the county hospital that will glut the
market and bear the price. That well
probably taps the vein which crosses the
Mission road beyond Magnolia avenue
and De Soto street at about five to six
hundred feet depth.
1t is not true vein but a seepage from
larger veins and always light producer.
The vein has been traced for three
miles and heavy flow from 1t would
be great surprise.
NOTES AND NEWS
Lacy brothers expect the new tank
here this week and say they can have
it in place within three weeks after its
arrival.
The Southern Pacific is building new
iron tank of 10000 barrels capacity on
Buena Vista street.

]. Bixby and r. L. Pomeroy is pro-
nounced premature by j. Bixby. eve

think investment in oil lands may be a
good thing. We don't know that we
may not go into it later on, but not just
now"
The prospecting wells at Ramona ave-
nue. and College street have been aban-
doned. The oil strata apparently ends
within a hundred feet to the southeast
Of that point.
Good oil has been struck by Davis and
Harrison at Adobe and Bernard streets.
The Parker we'll is evidently the best
producer in the east field. When first
struck it yielded 200 barrels, but has fall
len to about fifty. The strata tapped
by 1t runs east and west at depth of
$50 to $50 feet, and is doubtless the second
sand running under the Jewish cem-
etery, the pest house, to the end of the
kilns in the first brick yard and under
the hills at the west. The Milwaukee,
Oil company is getting ready to drill
thirteen wells, which will make total
of twenty-five wells for Parker and

Arraigned in Court

The quartet of youthful highwaymen
who relieved drunken man of his val

youngsters did not look very desperate,
and after their night in Jail would doubt

passive member of the gang, and he was
released. The others will be examined

Neoraska's Returns

LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 22.-Secretary Por-
ter and his two deputies were called be-
fore the election examining board today,
and testified to having opened returns and
sending some back for correction, but en-.
tered general denial of any change %
figures. At the suggestion of Gov. Hol-
comb the protest was overruled, and the
board will at an early date tabulate the
vote. The Republicans are now talking of
an injunction against the board, but it is
not settled that such action will be taken.
1t is claimed that if an injunction were
issued and sustained, the throwing out of
the votes opened by Secretary Porter would
change the result Of the election.

NOT THE MAN
A Mistake Made in the Arrest Of the
Flagstaff Negro

The negro arrested by the sheriff at
Flagstaff, N. M, supposed to be Mrs.
Belle Holly's assailant, has been re-
leased on telegraphic information from
Chief Glass. AS soon as word of the
arrest of the suspect was received the
chief wired instructions to send a pic
ture of the negro. In the meantime
proceedings were taken to obtain ex-
tradition papers. The photographs ar
rived yesterday and were taken to Mrs.
Holly. They show the negro in five
positions and she declared instantly that
he was not the man who had assaulted
her. The man arrested in New Mexico
has a growth of beard and moustache
which he could not have raised in three
weeks.

We wish our readers to peruse the an
nouncement made in our columns this
morning by Eastman Bros. & Bancroft,
and to read it carefully. Here is firm
that has gained a high reputation in
this city for the best of goods at fair
prices; firm that carries as large and
varied stock as any one can ask for
1t s very foolish person that will go
to Boston, attracted by the cry of mer-
chants week bargains. while firm like
Eastman Bros. & Bancroft offers spec
ial inducements to buyers throughout
the same week. In their advertisement
they make one statement that is gospel
truth. 1t is this: "We believe Portland
stores and stocks can amply supply the
needs Of SO per cent of the population of
this vicinity. We want Portland people
to buy goods in Portland Eastman
Bros. & Bancroft are firm that live
right up to their advertisements. If they
say that they are offering bargains in any
line of goods they are doing it. There
are thousands of men and women in
Portland today who can endorse this
statement. Now, therefore. just look at
their prices for ladies' and gentlemen
dress and furnishing goods; ladies' oloaks
and Jackets.

The Portland team started out very
strong on the first string, three of the
team reaching the 100 mark, and then
Immediately proceeded to get into diff
culties on the second, and put up their
smallest string of the evening, while tbs
Willards held their clip. One of the
pleasing features of the game was the
struggle between Shaw and Thrasher
for the honors of high roller for the eve
ming, which was finally won by Shaw ii

Trefethen secured the high single, 100
with Shaw second, 106. Merriwether ant

string but got very hard breaks on the
last two which kept them below what
they should have made. The Portland
team have not given it up yet an viii
