Anarchists Released.

Chicago, Sept. 2s. - After the

was no legal evidence against them,
Judge Chetlaln ordered the release
of the nine anarchists who have been

Goldman was not party to the
proceedings, as her case is set for
hearing tomorrow before Magls-

charged with conspiracy to murder

The Schley Court of Inquiry.

testimony so far gwen has been
altogether favorable.
Admiral Hlgglnson known to be
one of Schley's most bitter enemies

Scbley's actions were those of a
Commanderln-Chief, Captain G.
2. Harber who was the executive
officer of the Texas during the
battle Of Santiago, by his tes,imo-
ny clearly showed that, the Texas
was ID no danger when the Brook
iyn made her famous loop and
further stated that the Texas did
not back or stop during the run.
1t had been a pet claim made by
Admiral Schley's enemies that his
loop forced the Texas to back her
screws for safety. Yet here was the
executive officer OF the Texas, with
out whom the move could not
have been made saying that he
knew nothing of it.

THE JENNINGS GUSHER.

Saturday last there was flashed
over the wires the news that Jern-
lngs had brought in a gusher. This
news however was only partially
correct. Cn Saturday the we'll after
being bailed out 20 depth Of 500
feet threw up mud and sand in I'M
mense quantities and later vol
ume of pure OIL nearly to the top of
the derrick. In attempting to
further decrease the water pressure
on top, the drlllers were unfortunate
enough to let slip the balllng bucket
which fell to the bottom of the well
and being made of heavy metal
possibly sank some depth into the
soft ooze at the bottom. The accl-
dent will dela7 the compl elton Of
the well, some time. A contrlvence,
was sent from Beaumont with
which the drillers will attempt to
locate and fish out the bucket.
There Is no doubt however that,
this we'll will prove to be the
genuine article and may, as Mr..
Scott Haywood says be the most
valuable yet struck.

THE ADVOCATES
New Congressional Apportionment

In its last Issue the Baton Rouge
Advocate devotes its entire front
page to its idea of how the new ap-
portionment of Congressional dis
trlcts should be made. 1t finds the
3rd District entirely too large with
twelve parishes with total popula-
tion 2s7, ia and proceeds to slice
off Iberville, Calcasleu Cameron,
and Ascension placing Calcasleu
and Cameron in the new seventh
aud Ascension and Iberville IN the
sixth. 1t makes changes IN all the
districts except the first and second,
which it says should not be changed
for the reason that ssthe large
wealth that is concentrated there
and the mportent and varied in-
-terests represented by these two
congressman would certainly sngg-
est that numerical strength of popu
lations was less lmportent and
sacramental than in any part of the
State''.
This suggests to us that there
is coon in the wood pile. The Ad-

OIL IN LOUISIANA.

There is no more doubt but that
there is oil in the State of Louis
lana, and in large quantities
Ever since the finding of Oil at
Beaumont, Texas, a great many
attempts have been made in Louis
lana to find Oil, and all met with
not very much success. The fail
ure in this respect, may well be
accounted for by the lack Of good
machinery with which the major
ity of the drillers have been using
and the fact that they were not
all practical drillers, is another
reason probably why oil was not
found ere this in Louisiana.
But at last the Jennings Oil Co.
which has been one of the most
energetic companies in Southwest
Louisiana, has demonstrated that
there is oil in the State, by bring
ing in a we'll which, though not
quite complete yet, will no doubt
eclipse the Spindle Top ones OF
Beaumont.
Needless to say, that this has
revived the oil interest through
out the State, and dispatches
tells us that land is taking emo
nous strides upwards in prices,
and it will do the Southwestern
portion Of Louisiana great dea
lof good. There are very good
lreasons to believe that oil vii

'Tis said that men were monkeys once,

And do the most outlandish things
Because their neighbors do.
When some weakminded English lord

Our pants cut scant or full,
And make our coat tails long or short
To ape old Johnny Bull.
