OIL NOTES.
THE OH. MARKET.
From Saturdays Daily.

Indiana ........ .....,.".........''' 70
From Saturdays Daily.
One of the principal features OF
the week in oil circles was the ad-
vance of two cents in the market
which occurred on Friday about
noon. This was a feature which
pleased everyone connected with
the business in any way and was
one which will have the effect OF
making work pretty brisk in all
parts of the field during the fall and
winter. Just such a thing as an
advance in the market has been
needed to put a little life into the
operators, and the indications are
that the advance OF Friday was the
very thing to stir them UP. The
advance coming so late in the week
when there had been nothing pre-
ceediug it was something of sur
prise to the talent, as, unless there
has been some fuctuation during
the early part of the week it is
never expected that there will be
anything of either pleasing or dis
pleasing nature on Friday or Satur-
day, yet when it is least looked tor
is the time that the unexpected al.
ways happens.
Oil has been lowering at one
dollar for several weeks now, and
there had finally come sort OF a
presentment to some of the people
engaged in the business, that it
would be but a short time until
there would be decline Of course,
there are always those who take a
pessimistic view of every thing
from a funeral to picnic, and these
very same people are the ones who
were predicting that oil would de-
cline before there would be a fur
ther advance; in fact, great many
thought there never would be an
advance beyond what the price
was at that time, but they have
been badly fooled, and as conse-
quence there are a great many
thousand people in the oil fields
who are happier. 1t was not the
high grade oils alone which were
advanced, but it was the low grades
as we'll. The price of Lima oil to
day is higher than it has ever been
know before in the history of the
oil business, and as result the
operators out there are pushing the
drill with all their might.
The advance in oil will have the
effect of starting the operators and
PRODUCES to work again. They
will awake from the lethargic sleep
into which they went last winter
and spring and will make the drill
bounce very merrily from this time
forward. There is no reason why
they should not do SO. There IS
any amount of territory which has
not been tested not alone in this
state, but in others, and it is only
necessary tor the Standard Oil com
pany to keep the oleaginous fluid at
some point above dollar for them
to get the intrepid operator to go to
work and unearth new territory
which will be all right. They will
not 60 out and take a chance of
sinking their money at market of
less than one dollar andno one can
blame them. There is but one
place that operating can be made,
pay with oil at such figure and
that is in territory where producers
are sure and certain OF getting large
wells. tg.sa 81 e
The Wilson run pool came to
the front during the week with a
good big we'll which is located some
distance ahead Of developments and
there will probably be quite lot

showing of the we'll has been great
ly exaggerated. That the well is a
good one and that a nice lnlun
pool has been opened up there is
not the least doubt.
In the original Elk Run pool
Shay & McMullen will be due In
the Injun sand in the morning
at their No. I on the Schmeltzen-
bach farm. In this part of the
field good wells have been gotten
in not only the Berea grit but also
in the Injun, and good showings
have been found in the Cow Run
and Maxton sands. There is no
doubt that there are more oil pro
ducing sands in this field than any
other that has been discovered.
Out at Wilson run Gordou &
|
Co. No. on the Poulton, which
was drilled in the middle of last
week has been shot and cleaned
out and will be good for about 80
barrels day. When first drilled
in this we'll had every indication OF
dry hole but the shot opened it
up and now it will make good
producer.
Laugher Bros. we'll on the Hupp
1 farm, drilled in last week, also, To-
Gated about mile ahead of devel-
opments, has been shot and is re-
ported to be good for not less than
rs to 80 barrels day.
Gorden & Co.'S No. S on the
Reed farm will be ready to start
drilling tomorrow. The derrick
was completed Saturday night, and
they started rigging up this morn
ing.
The Wilson Run Oil company
have put the 6A casing in their
No. I on the J. and w. Edwards
farm, and it should get the sand
the latter part ofthe week.
From Tuesdays Daily.
The Carter Oil company have
drilled in their No. I on the This
tie farm out on Middle Island, in
the vicinity of the ], T, Jones &
Co.'s big we'll On The Marshall
farm and will have a big
gasser. The we'll was drilled in
last night and when the drill struck
the sand there was slight showing
of oil with a large volume of gas.
At first it was thought the we'll
would make a big producer, but
the oil was soon blown out by the
gas, pnd there is now very little
showing of oil. This is disap-
pointment to those who have terri
tory in that section. as it was ex.
pected the we'll would make good
producer on account of its close
proximity to the big Marshall well.
The Carter Oil Co. and J mes are
both drilling several wells in this
territory and one of Jones wells on
the Marshall farm should be in the
sand in few days. .
The Harvey-Cutler Oil company
have shot their No. on the Glen.
denning farm in the northeast ex-
tension of the Elk Fork pool and
will have a producer good for about
100 barrels day. The we'll had
declined to less than 100 day and
the shot brought it up to better
figure than that amount.

HOW CORPORATIONS
 DODGE THEIR TAXES
Plain Talk at the Convention of the Municipal Improvement
 Society

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26.-Representa- tives from various cities of the United States and Canada met here to-day at the Arlington Hotel at the fifth annual convention of the American Society of Municipal Improvements. The attendance was rather small at the opening, but many delegates are expected.
 The feature of the morning session was an address of welcome by Hon. John B. Wight, president of the Board of Com missioners of this district. and the re- sponse by the president of the society, Harrison Van Duyne of Newark. N. J. MT. Van Duyne said that coincident with the advance in. city development the past few years was the increased value of the franchises that had been given to many companies, which pay only a small part of the public burdens belonging to them, while the tax burdens of others had pro- portionately increased. He knew of no reason why the companies owning fran chises should not contribute their share to the support of the schools and other city expenses.
 D. L. Fulton of Allegheny, Pa, sub mitted his annual report, and that of John Kennedy. the treasurer, of Nash vile, Tenn, was read in his absence.

CRUISER BUFFALO
 WILL SOON DEPART
Getting Ready to Make the Long Voyage to Manila by Way of
 the Suez Canal

WASHINGTON, Oct 26-It is expected at the Navy Department that the cruiser Buffalo will start from New York on her trip to Manila before the end of the present week. Final preparations for he1 departure, such as coaling and taking on supplies for the voyage, are now being made under the direction of Captain Hemphill the vessels commander. The Buffalo will carry to Admiral Dewey's fleet between 600 and 700 recruits. besides a quantity of supplies of various kinds for our navy in the Philippines. She will go by way of the Suez canal. The Buffalo Is able to make this long, contin- uous trip by reason of her enormous steaming capacity, which easily exceeds that of any cruising ship in the navy. Although there is no occasion for great haste, no time will be wasted on the voy- age. The vessel is capable of making very fast speed, as was shown in her trip from Norfolk, Va, to New York just after her arrival from Brazil. whence she started with the Oregon and the Marietta
 At that time, under adverse circum- stances after a long voyage, she made an average of 15 knots hour. Should any emergency arise in the Philippines dur ing her long voyage she could make the last stage of the journey in very quick time upon receiving orders at Colombo.

DELAY IN SECURING TENTS
SNOWSToRM INTERFERES WITH
 THE WAR BOARD.
Inspection of Camp Frosee Suspended, but the Taking ot Testi- mony Goes on
 Steadily.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

HUNTSVILLE, Fla, Oct. 26.-The War Investigation Commission to-day suspended the inspection of Camp Fro see, owing to a mild snowstor1n and very muddy roads. The camp here is large one, with about fifteen subdi- visions of troops, to say nothing of the hospitals.
 The commission began the examina- tion of witnesses to-day with General Louis H. Carpenter, who is in command in General Wheeler's absence. He had been at Chickamauga, Tampa and at Fernandina before coming here. He said the camp at Chickamauga was too crowded. That at Tampa was unsatis- factory, but it was not intended to be permanent. That at Fernandina was ideal The food supply had been ample throughout, but quartermaster supplies were generally slow and there had been especial difficulty in securing tents. There was more trouble in getting sup plies at Tampa than anywhere else, because of the railroad congestion.
 Major Charles M. Candy, the surgeon who was in charge of the medical sup ply depot at Tampa, said he had been able to fill all reasonable acquisitions for medical supplies with promptness, but many bulky articles for which sub stitutes could be had were not supplied. The regulars were easily satisfied, but the volunteers were exacting. Still there were delays. He mentioned one instance of supplies ordered from New York that were not received for two months He had fitted out the Shafter expedition for Cuba and thought that in the main the expedition was fairly supplied. This was especially true Of the first requisition. Half of the sup plies he had on hand had been packed for Cuba, and he had afterward made a supplemental shipment of two wagon loads He had afterward heard that many of these stores came back to Tampa in the hold of the I-oquois. He gave the name of Captain Munson as authority for this latter statement. and he was sure Captain Munson would tes- tify willingly and fully.
