NEW IBERIA COTToN WILL.
A Home Enterprise that Will DO
Much for the Town

A very pleasant visit was made
this morning to the plant of the
New Iberia Cotton Mill Company.
\ detailed explanation of the
many intricate processes from the
winding to the finished shirt ready
fol the consumer, was kindly given
10y the manager Mr.. Magee. The
expert labor arrived ycSterday,and
are now ut work in the mill. This
labor was obtained from the mill
center of the East, and are the
most proficient and rapid workers
that could be found. Five are nov
in the mill and some others are.
enroute who are expected here
daily.
a ear load of paper boxes is be-
ing put into the building to day
and Mr.. Magee says that he had
been waiting for this car for sever
al weeks, to enable him to make
shipments of goods already manu-
factured. Large shipments will
now be made and continue SO, for
many months to come said Mr.
Magee and as most of the Eastern
mills will close down about Au-
gust, feel proud to say, that our
little plant has orders enough TO
run until October, when work will
begin on the summer goods.
A meeting will shortly be held
in the city of Albany, New York
State to coESumatc the final deal
for entering all fleece mills INTO a
trust. This movement on the part
of Eastern mills vii necessarily
raise prices, which is evident.
This movement has already been
felt by the buyers, and is verified
by the duplicate orders which the
New Iberia Cotton Mill company
are receiving daily.
The goods heretofore turned out
are equal in finish and quality to
any of the fleece mills in this coun-
try, and in not one single instance
have goods been rejected on ac-
count of their not being up to the
standard.

The Jennings Times Of recent
date contains the following inter
esting account of the discovery of
oil on Marmou prairie near that
place:
During The last two weeks or
more there has been more or less
talk about the finding of oil at the
well of the Jenuugs Oil Co, on
Mamou. Secretary Williams In
discussing the matter said: "W e
feel thatln justice to our friends
who have invested money H our
company IN explanation is a neces-
sity.
':The facts in the case are these.
Everything at the well progressed
without anything worthy of note
until the afternoon Of Thursday,
July 4th, when at depth OF 30
feet very heavy flow of oil was
struck. This flow continued unabat-
ed during Friday, Saturday and
Sunday, and was only checked by
being cased out at depth of $50
feet. The oil was of 4 superior
quality and according to the opin-
ion of Mr.. Dobbins would have
yielded 80 to 40 barrels per day.
The failure to discover any oil
sand confirmed the ,drlllers in the
belief that the oil was forced up
from lower depth. The presence
of gas helped them in that conclu-
sion.
1.-The drill had reached depth
of 273 feet when two joints of the
teninch pipe were twisted off, and
in trying TO connect these they
were so twisted that 1t was I'M
possible to get any other pipe
down Last Saturday a charge of
nine pounds of dynamite was dis
charged in the well in the hope
of dislodging the twisted pipe
The charge did not affect the pipe
but 1T did open reservoir of gas
which spOnted water and OIL to a
height Of ten feet. This did not
continue very long. At the presen
time quite a quantity of gas i
constantly escaping, accompanied
by much OIL.
] 1--WE are so confident that there
is oil that we are now moving the
derrick ten feet and will commence
work Wednesday morning on an
other well. This well will be start
ed with a twelve-inch pipe, and we
can expect to reach the same OF
about Monday or Tuesday of next
week. Our drillers inform us thai
the formations at our we'll are
identically the same as found 81
Spindle Top near Beaumont, ant
we confidently expect gusher.
