RAILWAY LABOR
And Conditions Surrounding It, as
Seen by a Well Qualified Observer.

Washington, January 7.-E. A. Nose
ley, secretary of the Interstate com
merce commission, was a witness to-
day before the federal industrial COM
mission, speaking on the transporta-
ton SYLLABUS of the industrial investl-
cation. He cited the difficulty in prov
ing a blacklistirAg system, explaining
that many railroads, after the Debs
strike, had freely given letters of rec
concentration to former employees, but
phrased them so as to notify the SYM
pathizing companies that the recon-
mended men had been blacklisted. He
recommended legislation prohibiting
the courts from attempting TO enforce
personal performance of labor con-
tracts by mandatory process. citing an
instance from the Ann Arbor road
where Lennon, an engineer, had been
fined and imprisoned for ,refusing to
take out his locomotive after the court
had ordered him TO return TO work, the
Judge having been transported in a
private car and issued his injunction
in the company's Office. He referred
to the fact that the safety appliance
act. passed in 1898, did not go into
effect until 1898 and that all but about
30 per cent. of the roads had installed
the master car builders coupler. He
referred to the railroad man as not

OIL NEWS.

Special to the Register.
st. Mary's, W. Va, January THE
week in oil circles has not been char
acterized by any excitable features.
Developments were OF routine nature
and within defined limits. Both the
Broad run and Calcutta pools continue
to give up good wells, and operations
are decidedly brisk. Rigs a. e being
built and wells starting in every dlrec-
ton. The operators find it almost inn
possible to get out supplies fast
enough owing to a scarcity of teams.
The roads are becoming indescribably
bad, and unless a 'freeZe-up" occurs
hauling will be suspended.
A team laden with casing for the
Calcutta field became fast in mud
hole, and one of the animals died be-
fore it could be extricated.
The St. Mary's Oil Company have
drilled in their No. . Isaac Bills. and
have very fine we'll This was q
surprise to the owners as their No. l
was very light.
They are preparing to start their No
3. Mallory Bros. and Stewards No. 3

producer.
The Fearless Oil Company are drill
ing at 500 feet at their test on the
Hudkin's farm on McKim Cheek.
Bartlett & Stamcli1's No. 5, Adams
estate, is good for so barrels.
The National Oil Company's No. 3,
Reynolds estate, was drilled in during
the early part of the week, and is es-
timated at 60 to rs barrels per day.
During the month Of December 10
wells were completed within a radius
of four miles of St. Mary's. with an
average daily production of "a bar
rels. The absence of busters makes
this a remarkable record for shallow
territory.
At the present time there are at
least 40 wells drilling and starting
within Peasants county.
The outlook is inviting and oil men
are fiocking in here in great numbers.
Many possess the belief that an In
jun pool exists in this locality, and
preparations are being made for some
deep tests with the advent Of spring.
