Actor Rntellns'. Marital NIX.

noon Actor Radcliffe was taken before
S. P. Paul, referee in the suit for d.
vorce brought by Caroline r. Radcliffe,
the English wife. Reporters were ex-
cluded from the room, but at the close
OF the hearing one OF the attorneys said
that Radcliffe admitted that the woman
had been legally married to him.
Immediately after the hearing before
Referee Paul, there was a similar one
before Thomas c., Kinney, referee In
Alice DeLacey's suit for annulment OF
marriage. Alice DeLacey Radcliffe tes-
titled that she was married TO Radcliffe
on August %, 1894. Radcliffe was called
and asked IL he admitted the two mar
rlages. He refused to answer on the
ground that by so doing he might in
crlninate himself. He also refused TO
answer several other questions In refer
cnce TO his marriages. The hearing then
came 10 a close and Radcliffe was taken

LATTlMER RIOT TRIAL.

q . J.
Evidence of Defense Shows strikers were
Acting In Disoidrriy Manner.
wII,KEsBARRE, Pa, Feb. 2s.-The
trial o; Sheriff Martin and his deputies
for the shooting OF strikers at Latti-
mer. was resumed this morning.
Stephen Guttenmiller gave the flrsl
evidence TO substantlate the assertion OF
the defense that a man stood behind
the lines OF deputies and urged the
strikers, on. !,
On cross-examlnation he said many
men were lying dead and wounded In
the road, and he saw one OF the latter
trying to rise, whereupon two men.
whom he thought were deputies, kicked
him. N s IS
y George Name. OF Hazleton, said that
he was with the sheriff at Crystal
Ridge . few days before the shooting.
and saw the sheriff disperse a number
OF strikers. AS they went away one
cried: well come back Tonight to
burn the breaker"
oliver LIebensberger, builder and
contractor OF Hazleton, hearing that
the strikers were going to march to
Milnesyille or Lattimer, rode out on his
bicycle to these places and after finding
they were bound for Lattimer, he rode
there. passing on the wuy some twelve
or fifteen strikers, who pursued him,
crying, XIII hint" XIII him!''
He told how he got behind the line of
deputies and watched the strikers APP
proach. The story OF the shooting was
told by him and how he helped care for
the wounded. William j. Evans. a re-
porter. was the next witness. He went
with the deputies to Lattimer and saw
the shooting which he described. He
picked a revolver up which was lying
by the hand Of one OF the dead men,
which he kept until the inquest. The
coroner produced the weapon. He tes-
tilted that the volleyi fired came from
the center Of the line.

rore. The announcement that 1t is to re-
turn Will attract a large and fashionable

has completed o remarkably successful
run OF $50 nights at Hoyt's theatre, New

"TEE TORNADO"

To say that any production is the
best OF lincoln J. Carriers, is high
praise indeed. but The Tornado"
which opened 4 half weeks engage
ment at the Grand Opera House last
night, Is entitled to that distinction. The
tornado and the dlssectlng room scenes
are among the most realistic ever pre-
scented upon any stage. Last night the
audience was aroused TO a high pitch Of
enthusiasm. The company is uniformlg
strong, and the, specialtles which were
introduced whenever the development Of
the plot permitted, were very pleasing.
The Tornado will, be repeated To-.
night, and the engagement viii close
with matinee and evening performances
tomorrow 1t should be greeted by
crowded houses at each performances!

WEEKLY OIL REVIEW.
I'll. Past week witnessed an Advance In


Price OF OIL. Is 4.
The events IN oil during the week past
have been especially gratifying to oper-
Eators and producers, says ID. S. W." in
/ his weekly review. After many months
\ of anxious waiting, the market price Of
the commodity started upward and
within a very few days placed the In.
dustryl within sight Of prosperity, a con-
( dillon It has not been on speaking terms
Z with for more than a year. The ques-
Z ton for the sudden appreciation in val
ues has been frequently asked and very
generally discussed. On the subject
there is a difference Of opinion. Some
attribute It to the Spectator, an element
that has not been conspicuous for some
years, but which shows an inclination to
once more daily with the tickle goddess,
fortune. TIL. small volume OF business
transacted during the week, as compared
Il with the very generous advance in the
{ market, makes 1t rather improbable that
5 speculation has been the elevating
power.
Others claim that the decline In pro-
I duction and the absence OF any new and
( prolific pools have forced the edvance.
There seems to be something in the lat
ter premises. IN the whole producing
area OF high grade crude, there has been
8 a falling Off in operations and new pro-
duction during the current month. West
Virginia has been the most aggressive
In sustaining the over production, but It
Is less bearish at this time and to some
1t has become painfully apparent that
the sure things they were banking on
are fast disappearing. As one operator
expressed 1t. the cream Of the territory
has been drilled over. The outside
limits OF the producing territory have
q been circumscribed, but the discovery
s OF numerous small pools Is a certainty.
The search for these will continue for
Z some years to come, just as has been
& past history OF the middle fields, OF
J which Butler county furnishes the most
striking Illustration.
B The Elk Fork pools was the most
noted discovery Of last year. In the lower
: southwest. Now operators are wonder
. Ing whether the new discovery OF Whis-
< Ky run, Richie county, will be able to
duplicate lis performance. Many think
I not. The Ahcht we'll has been good
slayer and leads to the conclusion that
1t has something back OF 1t. Holders OF
leases somewhat remote from the gush-
s er are watching the wells now drilling
in that vicinity with no little anxiety.
Near. Richie Mines Is another new de-
s;vclopment that It is quite promising, al
Z. though the wells are not In the Susher
: claes. Wood county is still active and
the Henderson, pool is presenting its
quota OF average producers and very
: Few busters.
