PRICES MUST ADVANCE
OIL SHIPMENTS EXCEED RUNS ABOUT
1900 BARRELS DAILY.
This Must Result i'm n Sharp Rise In
Future-FieId Conditions.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.

epecldl 10 tne Indianapolis JOurndl.
MONTPELIER. Ind. Nov. 13.-There is
certainly sensation in store for the oil
producers of the Indiana and Ohio fields as
the runs and shipments of the two fields
for the month of October show that the
price of the product will have to advance a
few pegs yet before the operator will push
the drill. The Standard wants oil and wants
IL bad. and to get it will be compelled to
make an inducement to the operators in
the way of advancing the crude product TO
at least SIS per barrel in the Indiana and
Ohio fields. At the present prices of pipe
and material oil should at least bring that
figure, and many of the wealthy producers
are holding their product for better price,
and they are bound to get it, With the
formation of a large independent company
s. sight it will have tendency to put the
Zee up. The shipments of Ohio and In
di. ma oil for October exceeded the runs by
above 1900 barrels a day, and for the
month the net stocks were decreased by
over $4,000 barrels. For September the
shipments exceeded the runs by nearly 1900
barrels a day, and reduction in the net
stocks amounted to over $4,000 barrels.
During October the average daily runs Of
the Indiana, Ohio southeastern Ohio, Penn
sylvania, southern New York and West
Virginia oil fields amounted to 1929 bar
rels day, and the shipments 1882 barrels
a day. The daily average runs of the same
fields for September were Is, ,677 barrels and
the shipments 152, ,353 barrels. The October
shipments of Indiana and Ohio oil reached
6i,Ss2 barrels day, and were the largest OF
the present year. The increase over Sep
tember Was 2.6i1 barrels a day. the Sep
tember average being 62,35l barrels DAY
The runs of Indiana and ONO oil averaged
47S2S barrels a day in October and 47,5l2
barrels in September.

HILLMON CASE AGAIN
ANOTHER SUIT AGAINST AN EASTERN
INSURANCE COMPANY.
Sixth Trial of One of the Most Famous
Cases on Observation-Disclosures Tes-
timOny Introduced.

LEAVENWORTH, Kan, Nov. 13-Sen-
sational evidence was adduced to-day in the
Hillmon insurance case, in which Mrs Sal
lie Z. Hillmon for the sixth time in twenty
years is suing an Eastern insurance COM
pany to recover on policies held by her hus-
band, John w. Hillmon, who disappeared
In 1879. The attorneys for Mrs. Hillmon
put Arthur Simmons, a Leavenworth cigar
manufacturer on the witness stand and he
swore positively that Adoph Walters
worked for him in May, 1879. This was
two months after the insurance companies
allege that Walters was killed by Hillmon
and one Brown near Medicine Lodge, Kan.
Simmons recognized Walters by his photo
graph and showed his books of twenty years
ago to prove that Walters had worked
for him at that time. The main point
Of the insurance company has been to prove
that Hillmon, Brown and Levi Baldwin
were in conspiracy and that they killed
Walters TO pass his body off for that Of
Hillmon. The insurance. with interest, in
volved now amounts to nearly slo0,0D0.
John w. Hillmon, who is supposed to have
been shot through the head at Medicine
Lodge, Kan. March IL, 1879, had his life in
$1,000: in the Mutual Life, $4,000. and in
the Connect cut Mutual. 5000 1t was
by his travelling companion, John II.
Brown. The insurance companies claimed
that conspiracy was formed consisting
of Levi Baldwin, John w. Hillmon and
John III. Brown, and that Hillmons life
was insured and that Frederick Adolphus
Walters was murdered by Hillmon and his
body attempted to be palmed off on the
companies as Hillmon's. The case has been
tried five times. The first trial at
Leavenwortn in June, 1882. The jury failed
to agree. seven being for the plaintiff and
five for the defendant. The second trial was
at Leavenworth. Kan, in June, 1855. The
jury again failed TO agree, the vote stand
ing 6 to 6. The third trial was at Topeka,
resulting in verdit for the plaintiff. The
case went to the Kansas Supreme Court.
where the Judgment of the lower court was
reversed. The next trial was before Judge
Thomas. of North Dakota. and eleven jury
men stood out for Mrs. Hillmon. The lone
man who hung the jury was NJ. III. Young,
of Marion, Kan. fifth trial was had be-
fore Judge Williams, the jury standing
10 in favor of Mrs. Hillmon. Last Janu-
airy the New York Life Insurance Com
pany was reported to have settled with
Mrs Hillmon by the payment of $21, 900.

and Threw Up the Game.

Special to the indianapolis Journal
BLOOMINGTON, Ind, Nov. 13.-But one
half of the De Pauw-Indana game was
played to-day, the De Pauw captain call
ing his men from the field. 1t was on ac-
count of a decision made at the end of the
first half, after Indiana had scored thirty
four points. De Pauw had the ball on In
diana's twenty-five-yard line and attempted
a place kick. The ball failed to clear the
cross bar and De PAW man fell on the
ball, 1t not having been touched by an IN
diana player. De Pauw claimed a touch
down, but Referee Searles ruled that the
player was offside, making it a toucheack.
There was twenty minutes of quarreling
by the three hundred persons present. who
crowded on the field. When time was called
for the beginning of the second half the
De Pauw men, led by their captain, left
the field. There was much i'll feeling mani

This may, however, be the beginning Of

work for the visitors. the latter making

He also did some good tacklng. There
was much fumbling throughout the game,
Indiana losing the most by it. For the home
team McGoveny, Pike, Captain Hubbard,

work. but the whole team played hard,
steady, progressive game. McGoveny made
a sixty-five-yard run, Weik downing him
