THE TOWN LOT WELLS
At Scio Are Holding Ont Remarkably Well
About Seven or Eight Feet of Pay Sand.

At Scio Are Holding Out Remarkably Well
About Seven or Eight Feet of Pay Sand.
Special to the Register.
Scio, Ohio, March 15.-An old oil
operator made the statement to-day
that it was something remarkable the
way the wells on the town lots are
holding up. The mere fact that there
are so many wells in SO small a space
would seem to make it an established
fact that no matter how large the pool
was it would soon show signs at least
of running dry. Every man who has a
well on a town lot will make money.
There is about seven or eight feet OF
pay sand that is all pay.
The conditions here for hauling are
still very bad. 1t takes four horses to
do two ho~Ses' work. Most of the haul
ing is done in coal.
e The daily ,Sverage still holds up al
about p 1900 barrels. The average
which would be lessened by wells drop
ping off little is kept up by new wells
coming in.
The Sun Oil Company, of Toledo, are
shipping daily in tank cars about 500
barrels.

BIDDING FOR THE FIGHT.

New York. March 15.-Wm. A..
Brady, representing Jim Jeffries, and
Martin Julian, manager Of Robert Fitz-
simmons, met to-day to consider the
bids made for the proposed fight be-
tween these pugilists.
AS soon as Brady and Julian read
the $4,000 bid of San Francisco syn
dictate, through H. p. Taylor, it was
taken up. Julian said that If any per-
son connected with the National Sport
ing Club of San Francisco were con-
nec'ted with the new syndicate he would
not accept any proposals from that
body. In fact, he said he would rather
have the bout take place in the East,
as their experience in California IN
the fighting line was not agreeable
either to himself or FitZsimmons.
Brady then asked Mr.. Taylor what he
was prepared to concede for picture
privileges, and the Western represent
tative replied that the purse was large
enough to cover all that. Brady OBJ
jected and SO did Julian. Both claimed
that the picture privileges would prove
to be large factor in the matter, and
that no club offer would be considered
unless the participants in the bout
should receive a per cent. of the profits
arising from the reproduction OF pic
lures of the fight. Brady said: III
give sum equal to Is per cent. OF the
net receipts of the fight for the prlvi-
lege of taking and reproducing these
pictures"
Mr.. Taylor then asked for time to
communicate with the San Francisco
people whom he represented SO that
he could find out what terms he could
offer.
w. B. Gray, representing the West
Chester club, offered purse OF $2l,0oO,
but would not concede any privileges
to the fighters, claiming that the purse
was in itself sufficient. His offer was
tabled quickly.
Then came the Coney Island clubs
representative, John P. Dunn. He said
che club was willing to put up. a purse OF
$4,000 and also so far as he knew to
divide the proceeds of the picture priv
ileges equally between the two con-
testants and the club. He also re-
uuested 81 hours time to enable him
to communicate with the management
Of his club 1t was finally agreed to
give all parties "a hours to make final
offers. There will be another meeting
at 2 o'clock tom orrow afternoon when
it is thought final settlement will be
arranged.

The condition of base ball affairs in

in the last "a hours hours that the fans
may well throw UP their hats and shout
for Joy, says the Fort Wayne News.
There is no longer any doubt about
the continuance Of the team. Yester-
day the stock subscription paper was

capital of $4,000 for the club. Six bus
mess men yesterday subscribed $1,000
of the stock and the whole amount will
be taken by the time this paper is on
the streets. This means that the club
will have plenty of good financial
backing and work to make the new
grounds can be begun at once. The
managers of the club have agreed with
Jack Glasscock on price as manager
of the team. Glasscock has had deal
on with another city and is anxious to
get out of it to come to Fort Wayne.
