little more liberal this week, that is to the conf

was not sustained. and on the whole there have
not been any more on the market during the first
four days than were available last week; the
dealers. however, received quite liberal offerings
direct from their country agencies. which being
considered made the supply perhaps a little
larger. SO far as the general demand was con-

POOL OF OIL IN THE GULF.
Experts Report That 1t Is as Exten
stve as Ever.

Experts interested in Beaumont Tex. oil, for
warded reports to local agents yesterday in re-
gard TO a recent inspection Of the oil pool in the
Gulf Of Mexico. the existence of which long ago
led to the belief that 1t flowed from the vein
discovered at Beaumont and later at Sour Lake
The Gulf pool Of oil is on a line drawn from
Spindletop Heights through the Sour Lake field
and into the Gulf. The experts say that the
presence of oil in the Gulf is now as extensive
as 1t ever was. and that the idea OF the supply
ashore being diminished is absurd.
Another contract for 2.0D0. 600 barrels OF oil has
heeen submitted to the Granite Mountain, Ground
Floor and Detroit beaumont companies. and II
is said that 1t will probably be closed in a few
days at the advanced price of % cents a barrel.

THE. DECORATION RIBBONS.

Quite pre-eminent among the deco
rative details of the day are ribbons.
They are all of soft finished satin or
taffeta, when not actually of chiffon or
gauze, pompadour patternings, chine
designs, that melt imperceptfbly into
the background, curious bizarre ar
engagements of spots, and quaint all
over geometrical fancies. The color
ings are singularly beautiful, and mod
istes together with milliners are i'm
mensely persuaded as to their orna-
mental services. Very pretty belts
confine the bodices of summer gowns
composed of alternate bands of lace
and ribbon. The latter material is
thin and very shimmering. novel
finish for such a belt is two large ro-
settles of plain ribbon attached to the
end of the streamers, though at the
waist the ribbon is simply slipped
through a gold ring.
