PARKERSBURG, W. Va, September s.
Talk of treachery in oil fields" said a
prominent operator to the Register man
to-day, The Boaz field caps them all"
Why" said he, "at CORVALLIS, when
in '97 man got at least two wells out
of every five put down, and in territory
far from the first big gushers, operators
thought their luck good, but a more
treacherous oil sand was never encoun-
tered than the sand found in the Boaz de-
velopment, and the talent are leaving the
field a great deal faster than they fiocked
toward it, Wells that have been located
will never be drilled, and a field that
started off with such bright prospects
never died quicker"
The surprise is disappointing Oil men
were hopeful of good field, and after
the first two gushers were completed
high prices were paid for territory. The
last three days have seen as many busters,
the last one being the Brown B Co. No. 2,
on Price.
To illustrate how oil men regarded the
field, an owner of a lease on which one
of the busters was completed, shortly be-
fore the well came in, was offered 5000
for a half interest in the lease. but re-
fused and now says he VIII pull the hole
and saw it up into postholes.
Another buster is expected to-day in
the c. D. Uhl q Sons well on the Uhl
farm. The Lockwood No. . also due, but
IN a better locality, 1t is thought, may
also give the territory a chill.
The excitement over the good strike
made near the old, Belmont field still
continues.
The Brown Oil Company started their
No. on the Kellar farm, near Williams
town, to-day.
The No. Johnson is expected in this
evening, The NO. is gaining slightly.
Kelly, Mobly & Company began spud-
ding yesterday. on the Uhl farm, south
east of developments.

FIGHTING JOE" ON CAMP wIKoFF.

"FTGHTING JOE" ON CAMP WlKOFF.
President Mckinley never made
better appointment nor executed a
screwder or more polite move than in
placing Gen. Fighting Joe" Wheeler in
command of the pest camp at Montauk
Point.
The wisdom of the selection has been
proved in more ways than one Camp
Wikoff, next to Camp Thomas at
Chickamauga, and the camp at San
tiago, was probably the scene OF
greatest horrors from starvation, unfit
food and putrid water, lack of medi
cine, hospital supplies and proper care.
The per centage Of deaths was fright
ful and the situation growing hourly
mand.
II was not a kind act to place this
arduous task upon the old general,
himself just recovering from the San
tiago fever and standing In severe
need of care and rest. But the grand
old fighter, who is all pure grit and
pluck, took hold and worked like
beaver for the amelioration of the con-
diiion Of the troops. which then beg
CARED description, the sick dying like
sheep in a shambles. The troops were
entirely unprotected from rains, and
those not sick were skin and bone,
suffering from starvation until dazed,
as described by Mrs. Julian Haw-
tborne, who visited the camp and re-
we'd her sick son.
Fighting joe Wheeler, who
ped his sobriquet if ever SOL
ick as he, himself, was, took
hold of the situation, and
he aid received from the

A Significant Order

HAVANA, Oct. 3O.--Colonel Hecker and
Colonel Lee of the United States special
transportation commission, received cable
grams from Washington last night directing
their return to Washington by the first
steamer available. The first messages,
which were from Secretary Alger, were very
brief, simply directing the recipients to re-
port to the war department, and there is
considerable perplexity as to the object of
the. recall Answers were Immediately
ssaabled to Washington, but up to the hour Of
Hing this dispatch no rejoinder has been
received, thus leaving the matter of Colonel
Hecker's departure doubtful, though Colonel
Lee will leave tomorrow by the Ward line
steamer Seneca.
The supposition is that the death of Col.
George w. Waring, jr., in New York city.
has necessitated some change in the plans Of
the war department.
General Wilde and Lieutenant Colonel
Clous had long conference with Colonel
Lee and Colonel Hecker this afternoon. Col
onel Lees departure will leave the commits
sions on transportation and the selection of
camp sites without chairman and the
quartermaster' department without dis
bursting officer.
DIR. O'Reilly, upon whom the chairman.
ship of the two commissions will devolve. is
now head quartermaster.
The impression is general among the
Americans here that the recall of Colone]s
Lee and Hecker at this particular juncture
is highly significant.
