The Herald CONFECTIONERY re-
porter at Washington conjectures
that the Administrations minimum
dem>eds will he the independence of
bs under the protection of the
Omitted States, the cession of Porto
Rico and the Ladrone Islands,
and coaling station in the
Philippines. SPANS extreme con
cessions are thought 10 he the
cession of Porto Rico and Cuba
outright, preferring that Cuba
should become a part OF the United
States TO it's being independent, be-
cause of a fear that the Cubans
loyal to Spain would be prosecuted
and despoilcd by the present insur-
gent element under independence.
The war will continue 10 be vigor-
ously prosecuted until an armisiice
10 agreed upon. The Administra-
ton will not agree to cessation of
hostilities until Spain gives suili-
cient assurance that the demands
Of the United States will be sub
stantislly complied with.

If homes were taken entire instead

New WeHs,rand Locations-Notes About
~ the,Producing Wells.
Special to the Register.
Sistersville w. Va, July 15.-Word
was received in the city late this
afternoon that the Carter Oil Com
pany had drilled in their No. l on the
McLain farm, in the Elk Run district,
in Washington county, Ohio, and that
they would have a good well when it
had been connected up. This well is
almost four miles ahead of the pres
ent developments in the field, which
have been mentioned frequently in the
Register and it looks now as though
there was going to be an immense
field opened up over there. All the
wells that have been drilled in over
there so far have been good ones, and
there is a great deal of new work be-
ing started. The coming in of this
we'll as a producer will make things
livelier than ever, and during the next
ten days there will be quite a number
of new wells started. The Carter Oil
Company as we'll as a number of other
large concerns and some individuals
have a large amount of territory under
lease, and all or them intend to at
once test their holdings by drilling
one or more wells in the next thirty
days.
Another we'll Of importance drilled
in to-day was that of the South Penn
Oil Company on the Cunningham
farm, to the northwest Of the Elk
Fork development The well was re-
ported in the city this afternoon to be
making better than $50 barrels a day.
This makes the northern end of the
old Elk Fork field look pretty good
now. The wells which have been
drilled in that part of the field have
been holding UP better than the other
ones and as they are drilled deeper in
the sand before the pay is struck it
is believed they are in the old Injun
sand and will make good stayers.
