TEXAS OIL FIELD AFIRE
Some Danger That 1t Will BE Entirely De-

Some Danger That 1t VIII BE Entirely De-
troyed In the End.
Beaumont, Tex, Sept 12.-The oil
field is on fire, and judging by the
great volume of smoke which is fOw-
ing in from Spindle Top there is grave
danger that great loss will be sus-
tanned, If the field is not entirely de-
stroyed. The fire started early In the
evening In some waste oil along the
Texas and Sabine tracks, and burned
about sixty feet Of trestle. This was
gotten under control and 1t was be-
lieved that all danger had passed, but
in the meanwhile the fire in some
way had been communicated to the
field, and a number of large settling
tanks, containing thousands Of bar
rels Of petroleum, have already explod-
ed and others are reported as being
In the direct line Of the fire, which
has spread over wide area. The
ground is saturated with oil.
A telephone message from Gladys,
which Is the station at the oil field,
says the whole of the Keith-Ward
tract, embracing several acres and con-
tanning a large number Of wells, has
been burned over. A statement issued
yesterday shows that there are 410
producing wells in the field, some of
which are buried under earth to safe
guard against fire

PETROLEUM FIRE AT BEAUMONT
Ten Pumping Rigs Destroyed, with Los,
of About $50 900.


New Orleans, Sept. 13.-A special
from Beaumont. Tex, to The States
says: The fire has destroyed ten pump
ing rigs and one 1000 barrei settling
tank. 1t covers an area Of about an
acre in the northwest corner of the
Keith-Ward tract. in which there are
about twenty-five wells. One of these
is the gusher, which is on fire.
A field force Of 800 men under ].
c. Cullinan has been organized to fight
the fire. The present damage is esti-
mated at $4,000. The rest of the field
is not considered in jeopardy.
AT daylight yesterday morning the
fire had burned itself out and last
night there were only four wells and
two tanks burning. One of the wells
was a gusher and there will be much
trouble experienced in extinguishing it.
The smaller wells can be easily ham
died, as the fire is principally fed by
gas. The oil is being drawn from the
tanks as rapidly as possible.
The fire was started by the care
lessness of a workmen, whose name
has not yet been ascertained. He went
into a tank-which was partly filed
with oil-with lighted lantern, and
there was an explosion Of gas which
ignited the oil. The man escaped
though he is said to have been badly
burned The Wood gusher had been
left open and it was ignited within a
few minutes. Before an alarm could
be given to control the burning tank
the flame leaped high in the air. the
derrick caught fire and so did the oil
which was standing around the well
The ignition was comparatively slow
but the fire once started spread rapid
ly over the Keith-Ward tract. The
loss may reach 100000.

Jessie Hawthorne notified the police,

Rev. Oeschger is pastor of the Chris
tan church in this city and one Of
the most prominent ministers in south
ern Indiana. According to the plan
laid, young woman was to go to the
home Of Oeschger, disguised as a book
agent, and obtain an entrance. AS she
entered the door she was to signal q
male friend who was on the outside,
and this friend, in few minutes, was

minister Of associating with immoral
women.
Names Of Two Men Known.
The girl was to assist in carrying
out the plan and to appear against
Rev. OeSchger at trial. For doing
this the two were to be paid $50. The
girl In the case was an inmate of a
notorious house. The police have the
names Of two men who, they assert,
were the other conspirators. The plot
was carefully laid and would have
been carried out had the girl been able
to hold her tongue. She informed Jes-

Der of threats have been made against
him. The cases against the saloon
keepers are now occupying the atten-

The money was gathered through
house to house collections. jars placed
on street corners and other places and
proceeds from picnics. The miners
chief was given an enthusiastic re-
ception by the great crowd within the
building where the presentation was
made. After the relief money had been
formally presented to him Mitchell
made a short address.
He thanked the donors on behalf of
the great army of men, women and
children who are making a great strug-
gle for living wages" He said the
mine workers fight was a fight for
trade unionism. without which the
workmen Of fhe country could not gel
fair treatment from the employers
The spokesman Of the operators, he
continued, contended they are making
a fight for individual liberty and fol
a principle, but Mitchell insisted tina,
the operators are battling to give
| wages satisfactory only to the Goa
trust.
The coal operators. he said. had char
acterized the miners union as a ''ir
responsible and lawless body" He ad
