THE OIL KING.

From the New Orleans Picayune.
 Captain Lucas, the developer of the Beaumont oil field, passed through New Orleans yesterday on his way back to Beaumont. Captain Lucas did not regis ter at any of the hotels, having only a few minutes to spend in the city. During his short stay he gave the following in terview to the Picayune:
 "I left Beaumont two months ago be- cause I was overworked and needed rest. knew that as long as I remained in the Texas oil fields I should have to attend to a thousand business affairs. and that I would have no relief from the fatigue I then suffered. From Texas l went to Alabama and looked at oil lands In that State. oil has been found in Alabam a, but not in paying quantities.
 From Alabama I went North and East, taking in the Pan-American during the trip. I have since been to Washing ton, and have come direct from there to New Orleans"

CONGRESS TO PAY PHYSICIANS.

Washington Cor. in the Chicago Record
 Herald.
 Congress will make special provision for the payment of the physicians and surgeons who attended the late Presi- dent Mckinley at Buffalo and for the payment of his funeral expenses. This was the course pursued after the death of President Garfield. What these ex- penses will amount to in the case of President Mckinley cannot be stated even approximately, as none of the b-lls has yet been sent in.
 In the case of President Garfield Con gress appropriated in all s57,5oO. Of this amount s35500 was for the payment of the physicians and $22.00O funeral ex- penses The total expenses in the case of President Mckinley will probably be fully as great, for though the bills of the physicians will not be so large as they were in the case of President Garfield who fingered for more than two months after he was shot, the expenses of the funeral are expected to be larger. The principal item, as in the case of the Garfield funeral, will be for railway transportation. This will include the special train which brought the funeral party from Buffalo to Washington, the special train of three sections which carried the party to Canton and the

been brought in. all located on or very near low hill called Spindle Top. Two Clusters" or oilless wells have been drilled on Spindle Top, thus showing that all Of its 400 acres Is not underlaid with oil-bearing rock. In addition to the flfty-three wells in operation 20 more are being sunk, and if these prove to be gushers, as they probably will, the daily product of Spindle Top and Sun Lake will be 2,50O.OOO barrels.
 Where shall this enormous product be sold? How long will it last? Texas in all its vast scope is offered fuel oil laid down at figure equal to SLIP for coal; but Texas cannot absorb the production of Spindle Top. Tank steamers and pipe lines alone can handle it, and not much progress has been made towards procuring them. Two pipe lines have been constructed to Port Arthur on the sea, and two more will soon be completed. The distance is only sixteen miles. The first shipment of crude oil in a tank steamer was made at Port Arthur last week. so that the task of marketing the oil has but begun. No pipe line has been laid to New Orleans or Hous- ton or Galveston. The Standard Oil Company has no finger In the pie, and altogether the outlook for marketing 2,500, ,000 barrels a day of the oil is not very fiattering.

LADIES AND CHILDREN,

From the New Orleans Times Democrat.
 'T object strenuously," said a young matron of this city few days ago, 'to an underhanded insult which is repeat edly heaped upon my sex. Even In the old toast, The ladies, God bless them,' there was humiliating touch, which was all the worse because one could not come straight out and object to being blessed just because the blessing was called down by a man who could find nothing spe- ci1c in our sex to speak well of. But that Is an old story. What now resent Is the unanimity with which every show or entertainment which is so poor as to be shamefaced is at once blazoned as being especially interesting to ladies and children. Now. I can't speak for the children. although even they. no doubt, have vague idea that they are being bamboozled; but for the ladies I declare em phatically that the announcement is nothing less than an insult, and for my self I now avoid all such performances as Old Nick does the holy water fountain. Yes, formerly swallowed the bait as others do, but was brought up stand ing. few months ago. when I was faced by the announcement on a prominent Boston. thoroughfare, Champion boy bootblack of the world. Record, sixteen pair in five minutes. Exhibitions every hour Entertainment especially interest ing to ladies and children. :"

Texas Oil unmarketed.

 It begins to be seen that pipe lines tank lines, and barge lines will cost . great deal of money-that millions of dollars are needed before any con. siderable portion of the oil can be placed in the hands of consumers. Beaumont is now hunting for the needed capital. It has oil to burn. but not capital, and the gathering of the latter is not light task. Beaumont is proceeding slowly in it, but perhaps satisfactorily.
 The Lucas we'll was struck on Jan uary 10 of this year, so that only nine uiOuLuS AafC CidpoCO SiACc tue new field became known. In the course of the craze that ensued between $30,. 100000 and $50,0Oo,000 was invested in the oil capitalizations of Texas. A good share of this great sum was drawn from the southwest, this State contributing its full proportion. h the Beaumont field alone 476 com panies were formed, and they were capitalized at s242.762.5Oo! Many ol these companies quickly disappeared and none of them are earning clear nei money. The great sums gathered from the southwest are either lost or ir suspense, and instead of making the \South rich the Texas oil craze has nAde it poor.

One Side Only at Present,

It must be apparent to all who read the evidence in the Schley- Sampson case that Admiral Schley is in the hands of his enemies. Judge Advocate Lemley and Assistant Judge Advocate Hanna do not try to conceal their enmity to Admiral Schley. Presum- ably the court is likewise inclined. The entire naval clique seems to be league against an officer who fought and won an historic battle.
 The naval clique is endeavoring to show that the Brooklyn could have been coaled at sea; that Admiral Schley did not try to ascertain whether the Spanish fleet had put in at Cien- fuegos, and that he steamed slowly to Santiago; that he did not try to de- stroy the Colon when she lay in the lower harbor of Santiago, and lastly that the famous loop endangered and delayed the Texas.
 The clique is establishing these points at a great rate, but 1t must be remembered that the defense has not yet had its inning, and that very eff cient lawyers are in charge of Ad- miral Schley's side of the inquiry. The entire case may look altogether diff ferent when Admiral Schley begins to call his witnesses. A suspension of judgment is the proper thing at pres ent
