To the Editor Of the Register.
Philippi, W. Va, October 20.-From
most authentic sources-ones which
can be taken and accepted as absolutely
true-the result Of the conference last
week at Grafton between Senator Ell
kins, Commissioner Scott and the mem
bers of the Congressional Executive
Committee, was that the sum Of $500
was contributed by the Republican Ma
tionai Committee for use in the State.
This sum was divided by giving to the
Third District $500, saying that Ed
wards was able through his New York
friends to furnish the balance of the
money necessary for his canvass. and
the remaining part was equally divided
among the other three Congressional
Districts. The part assigned to this
Congressional District was paid to
Chas. F. Teter, the chairman Of Mr..
Daytcn's committee, and was deposited
by him in the First National Bank in
Grafton, and is being distributed by
Chairman Teter to the several counties
in the district. 1t was further under
stood and agreed that Scott was TO
put up the money necessary to carry
the close senatorial aud legislative dis
tricts, and that no part of the money
contributed by Scott was to go into the
safe Republican districts, such as Pres
ton, Monongalia, Morgan and Grant,
except such parts as was necessary to
aid in the election of the legislative and
senatorial candidates: This can be re-
lied upon as absolutely authentic.

Parkersburg, w. Va. October 21.-
Up in the Valley Mills field there is
quite stir. Some local people put down
well on the Mon Williamson place,
and got good 100 barrel well. 1t was
drilled within $50 feet Of the well that
was put down by the Standard two
years ago, which was a dry hole, and
the territory was then abandoned as no
good. This is on a piece of land which
joins the Jim Smith property, which
has been in litigation.
The Henry Owens well on Big Run is
good for 100 barrels right along.
The Cleveland Oil Company has put
down some wells on Mrs. Drake, and
now have twenty-three producers on
that territory.
Kennedy & Kelley are drilling on
the Holz farm, and feel sanguine thai
they have got a hole which will be a
good producer.
The Hostetter was drilled two years
ago and abandoned. but the late de-
velopments have stirred the people up,
and two new wells are going down on
this strike.

Ellenboro, W. Va, October 21-For
several days the oil talent has been
closely watching the well being drilled
by Lamb & Company, on the c. Helm
selman farm, on Dog Comfort Run,
and among some CT the watchers
who thought the hole was below the
producing streak, the we'll was
thought to be dry, but yesterday after
noon when the well was near the 1000
foot mark, the greasy fluid was found.
The we'll made three nice flows yester-
day afternoon amounting to about
thirty barrels, and the owners are
wearing a broad smile. This new
strike will stimulate New York, and
the South Penn Oil Company, Kennedy
Lawrence & Company, and T. n.
Barnsdall, who own leases in the i'm
mediate vicinity, will probably start
new wells at once.
The Norman Barnes No. 8, on
Whisky Run, is a remarkable we'll, and
is still producing about $50 barrels
daily.
The contractor will be obliged to
drill past the lost tools in the No. 3,
On the Nicholas Brooks farm.
The latest venture on the S. Bum
gardner farm is only about 200 feet
deep, not 500 feet, as has been reported.
The Cairo Oil Company, who own
leases on a large block Of the valuable
territory south of Cairo, have recently
made a lumber of locations near Mac
farlan.
Work has begun on the No. 4, On the
F. Lemon farm, near Macfarlan. The
No 8, on the same farm, is making
twenty-five barrels, and No. is being
drilled deeper.
Out near Cantwell postoffice consid-
cradle drilling is being done on the
farms of D. Eddy SIR, D. Eddy, Jr., A
H Ayres, Christopher Campbell and
Absolam Right.
The dry hole on the Naman Barnes

came engaged 10 Mr.. Williamson. q
well-known personality In the Journals
istic world. and was shortly after
wards married. Almost directly after
her marriage about four years ago.
she recommended her literary labors.
Her first efforts were In the direction
OF character sketches which were done
with the vigor and the power OF
graphic narration which have 90
charmed the readers Of her later stor-
les. Then Mrs. Williamson embarked
upon more arduous undertaking Of
serial story for Messrs. HARMS
worth. The story was a complets
success. and having found her particu-
lar bent" Mrs Williamson has pro-
gressed, adding many other successful
stories to her initial venture as

half the size of the enemy, he secured
Immortality to himself and the French.
His dashing and brilliant victories
over the veterans of Austria were due
to the rapidity of his movements, and
the consumate strategy employed In
making them effective. The stupendous
project of crossing the Alps and descent
upon the plains of Marengo before the
enemy could effect a conjunction OF its
armies, again indicated the great
value of promptitude and decision in
conducting military operations. the
most astounding successes OF the man
who towers among US like some an
cient ruin" are directly attributable to
the vigilance and energy and prompt
ness with which he carried on his wars.

that every moment lost gives an OPP

Our own matchless naval command
er, Admiral Dewey. has given to the
world, an exhibition of that same mill
tary and strategic genius that has in
variably characterized the great gen.
erals of the past. Without delay (Which
is always accompanied with vexatious
and dispiriting consequences) he boldly
and energetically attacked the Spanish
when they little anticipated it, and his
crushing and annlhilating victory over
them must be attributed TO the dis
patch and promptness with which he
acted. 1t has added to Dewey's name
lustre of ineffacable brilliancy, and
he must forthwith be ever associated
with the greatest heroes of naval war
fare.
If the United States could have had a
Dewey or a Napoleon at the head of
the government, directing military OPP
erations against the Spanish. Moro
Castle would have been in ruins be-
fore this, the flag of independence and
liberty would have been waving tri-
umphantly over the Cubanscapital, and
the Spanish would have been annihil-
'ated or driven from the West Indian
seas. Turn over to Captain Sampson
the reins of war in the West Indies. I'M
fettered by governmental dictation, and
inside of 4S hours he will either sink
the Spanish fleet or by it be dispatched
to submarine depths himself; but
Spain will never defeat Sampson, and
our submarine fleet will not be alarm
ingly augmented by any exhibition of
Spanish valor in the present war.
