Judge Hanford yesterday handed down
four decisions In the Stimson land cases.

The cases involved the title TO nearly ALI

senting value OF approximately $4,000
These lands had been taken up by a NUM-
Der or entrymen. who after receiving a
final receipt from the land Office. decided
their interests In the property to Thomas
ID. Stimson, the California millionaire who
recently died. and Hugh Park, OF Muske-

conveyed their interests IN the lands to
the Siinson Land Company. About the
time 81 this last conveyance the United

Three men tunneled from under the base

outer vault, when some slight noise made
by their movements attracted the atten-

put on the watch and the plot was frus-

arrest OF the saloon keeper as IN accom-

He turned states evidence and disclosed
the whole plot, which included the blow

OF more than 10000 deposited therein at

is no small matter as ii will amount
up into the neighborhood of FIVE or six
hundred dollars After the rain Mon

BARNS BURN.
J. III Lukeu Loses Two Barns by
Fire at His South Seventh
Street Home.

This afternoon about O'Clock an
alarm of fire from box Is called tn ,
department to the home of j. Ell.
Luken, on south seventh street, where
it was found that his barn YVES on fire.
The work of extinguishing the
blaze occupied but short time
and the FIRE laddies made
some quick time in getting to the
scene of trouble. The loss, all told,
will not amount to more than $500 or
5000, and it is partially covered by in
surance. The fire originated in the
barn belonging to a family by the
name of Logan, who3 reside in the
south half of the house. and IN short
time both sides were blazing at furi-
GUS rate. A wood shed opposite the
barn was also scorched, but So or $40
will repair the damage. A colored
man working in the vicinity says he is
positive that he heard some one up
stairs Just before the fire was discov-
cred, and this gives rise to the incen-
diary theory. A horse and carriage
and other things in the barn were
saved.

large and all came ostensibly for the
purpose of attending the show.
As for the show itself, it was fair,
but does not begin to compare with
Buffalo Bills Wild West show, al
tn ough it has many features in COM
mon. There is considerable repetition,
which grows somewhat tiresome to the
average audience. There were a num-

back, was particularly pleasing. and
the Cuban and American flags were
eheered to the echo.

GAS TO BURN
HAS RANDOLPH COUNTY,
AND WINCHESTER Is
STARTING A BOOM.

Talk of Mr.. Sedgwick Building a
a Factory There Denied by Mr..
Sedgwick Himself-Seven Wells
Are Now Flowing and SIX More
Are Being Sunk.
Randolph county and especially
Winchester is on the BOOM One
of those gas booms. Plenty of gas to
fill the balloon of their boom and let it
be stuck several times with the point
of discouragement and still keep it as
cending. They now have seven wells,
all OF which have high heavy gas
pressure; as the PALLADIUM has be-
fore stated their evidences of an at
tempt to get some of the gas to this
city. But there are also evidences going
to show that we are to be the loser by
the BOOM The Winchester Herald
in an article concerning the gas out
look says:
There have been two men here
within the last week to see about To-
eating factories, but just what the
outlook was we did not learn. Isham
Sedgwick of Richmond was also here
Saturday, and if the proper induce
ments are offered will manufacture his
horseless wagons here as well as the
engines from which the fire is fur
nished. He has good thing and in
the near future will have one of the
wagons here on exhibition"
Mr. Sedgwick was seen by PAL
port, and stated that while it was true
that he was at Winchester looking over
the grounds and sounding the posi-
bilities, it was by no means certain
that he would start factory at all.
He is working on plan for horse
less carriage, bat has not yet COM
pleted even that.
The Winchester journal, speaking
of the outlook for gas, has the follow
ing to say:
The new wells of the Monarch
company and the Wysong company
came in last Wednesday. and are the
best wells developed in the new field.
The Wysong we'll is so strong that il
was not shot. Last Friday afternoon
representatives of both companies Wis
tied the wells and tested them with the
gauges of their companies and the gauge
belonging to the Rock Oil com
pany. The gauges varied very
little and showed & pressure of $40
pounds rock pressure. Each well has

showed nearly the same prs ssure, but
the flow is not so strong. The county
we'll, which has been in use for some
time, maintains the same pressure, $40
pounds. There are now seven wells in
the new field, all of them good ones,
a conservative estimate placing
their flow at $4,000, 900 cubic feet
per day. There are now six more wells
going down and contracted for, and as
each of the companies are going in
different directions, it will only be q
few weeks until we know more about
the extent of the field, but the fac,
that no dry holes have been struck sc
far is very encouraging, and there is
very little doubt that there will be gas
enough developed to induce large
manufacturing interests to locate
