Jeup Explains Light Contract.

City Engineer Jeup said yesterday that
the specifications for the new lighting con-
tract could not apply to the Indianapolis
Light and Power Company If 1t were the
successful bidder. He said the company
could use its present plant and there was
no intention on the part of the city to pre-
vent it doing so. He says that none of the
prospective bidders on the proposed new
contract has complained to him of unfair
ness in the specifications. One man
thought that thirty days was not sufficient
time in which to organize a company and
thought the city should give sixty or nine
ty days in which TO organize a company
and prepare a bid. Mr.. Jeup claims that
this nan said he would willingly take the
new contract If the city would let ii for
twenty years. furnish public arc lighting
on an all-night schedule for the same price
now paid for the moonlight schedule and
furnish private lighting at the light and
power company's present rates and at the
end of the twenty years turn the entire
plant over 10 the city without further COM
penSatiOn.

HAY auLcH OIL STRIKE.
A Discovery That May Lead to the
Development Of New Resource.

hTe people In the vicinity of Hay
Gulch are quite excited over an oil
strikethat has lately been made there.
Several days ago J. w. McDermott
was drilling well for drinking wa
ter on the Hans Aspaas place in Hay
Gulch. After drilling 29 feet the
machine struck an oil schist. a hard
blue rock. carrying crude oil in pock-
cts. On striking the clay pocket
stream OF crude petroleum two In
ches wide flowed over the surface Of
exhausted the oil appeared as thin
Aim.
After drilling 81 feet 1t was decid-
ed to get n larger machine and bore
to depth OF 1000 feet That is
where the matter rests at present.
There liz every reason to believe
that another item is about to be added
no doubt about the discovery being OF
Importance. The fact that the oil
Is found as near the surface gives a
snrer indication that there is more to
be found lower down. IT has often
been brought to the notice of the pub
lie that the coal fields will give out.
and In some parts Of the world 1t will
he but comparatively few years.
Hence, when the day comes. there will
be something else to take the place Of
coal, so there Is no need to worry.
Perhaps crude petroleum-wbo can
tell? At any rate. 1t is being used on
some OF the railroads In California
with great success. Where the COM
pany has to purchase its coal the pc
troleum is cheaper as well as very
much cleaner
