Two wells in the Cameron, Ohio, field,
Of which mention was made yesterday
morning in the Register, have been
drilled in and are dry. The wells in
question. are those of Shay & McMullen
and Capt Grace. Both of these were
important as tests, and their coming IN
dry will give that section black eye,
and quite bit of the work which was
almost ready to start will be abandoned.
These wells are both located in the
south, and the extention in that direc-
ton has been cut off. There is still
some very nice looking territory IN
close proximity to the Mobley & Grad
haus wells, and the work is still prog
ressing in that part of the field.
A well was drilled in on r. T. Reed S
farm, on French creek, wednesday,
which promises to be the best well in
Peasants county. The sand was struck
at depth of 432 feet. With one screw
in the sand, it filled UP 100 feet with
oil in 20 minutes. In a short time the
hole filled up 300 feet.
Capt Mclaughlin is putting up a rig
for we'll on the Hall Sunderman lease
on Long run. Mallory Bros are down
800 feet with their we'll on the Cotton
lease, and should be in the first of the
week. Asa Michaels is moving his rig
to the T. J. TAYLOR farm on French
creek and will begin drilling the first
of the week..
Graft & Co. will begin drilling on the
Lille Hester lease on French creek in
a few days. No. 5 on the Cain farm is
we'll down to the sand and should be
in the last of this week. Mallory Bros.
got nice little well on the holland
lease on Newell'sRun below Newport.
The shallow wells coming in in this
vicinity are making things quite lively
here just now, ard when water gets
more plenty drilling will boom. Smith
&, McMullen have sold their interest in
the Cain lease On French Creek, and
in another adjoining lease, to Marietta
parties for $4,000 cash. There are
three producing wells on the property
with about 60 barrels production.
The well drilled on Wheeler Smith s
farm at the mouth of Green's Run has
raised quite an excitement The sand
was struck at 800 feet, and is 16 feet
in thickness. It filled UP $50 feet with
oil in a few hours, and when tubed,
began flowing at the rate Of $50 barrels
per day. 1t is between two very light
producers, neither of which is more
than 800 feet from it: and the strangest
part of it is that both the other wells
got the sand over 100 feet below this
one. The operators think they have
struck stray sand, something like the
Keener, which is found only in the Sis
tersville field.
Barnsdall & Co. are down LOO feet
with their we'll on the r. A. Gorrell
lease on Sugar Creek, and will case
Monday
Drilling is going on nicely at W. A.
Wharton's well on the Asa Wagner
lease and they will be ready for the first
string of casing the first Of the week.
The Mallory Bros No. 1, On Hay
hurst, on Whisky Run, is down through
the salt sand and ready to case.
The well drilled by Asa Michaels for
Patterson & Co.. on the T. B. Smith
lease, is a gusher in the shallow sand.
1T made $50 barrels when first struck
and is doing better now. The sand was
struck at depth of 346 feet.
G. w. King is putting the tubing in
the Caldwell on J. E. Smith lease.

THE MARKETS.
Wall street Review.

New York, Nov. 26--The latter part OF
the day showed an Improvement in busi-
ness on the Stock exchange, both In the
volume of transactions and the Increase
in values over that recently prevailing.
The standard railroad stocks, however,
continued to be good deal neglected, and
the movement of prices in them were
very narrow The whole list was de-
pressed during the early part of the day
under the influence of lower prices for
Americans in London and active selling
here for London account. This was espe-
cially marked in st. Paul and this stock
failed to recover at any time to Wednes-
days close. Its weakness was due 10
the October statement of earnings which
showed an increase in net of less than
5000. So far as this statement bears on
the general situation. II is to be taken
into account that st. Pauls October earn
ings last year were the largest for the
year. The later Improvement in the mar
ket left the railroad list with net gains
but they were of the narrowest in many
cases. The chief interest in the market
centered in the spcclalties, and these all
developed strength before trading had
been long in progress. Total sades were
l79,700 shares.

That the Chicago Combination Cloth

advertisements. When they announce
the sale of such hgh-grade goods at
such ruinously low prices. This firm
can we'll afford to sell these goods at
such prices, as they buy goods from
people who are either giving up busi-
ness and must raise money; also from
bankrupt concerns. sheriff sales. and
in fact from wholesalers who are hard
pressed for money. The Chicago Com
bination Clothing Co. have eight steady
buyers who are continually on the look
out for such stocks. and in a great
many cases they are successful in OBJ
tanning these goods at from twenty
five TO fifty per cent. on the dollar.

on sale, adding a small percentage for
profits and turning the stock quickly
and giving the people such bargains
that under ordinary circumstances they
could not secure. Thus it will be seen
when thew announce a sale il is not

actual facts. The great sheriff sale
which is now in progress in their store
is creating the talk of the town. II you
