loss roughly estimated at 500, 200. The
fire al o'clock this morning is still
burning. but practical oil men declare
the flames will subside before daylight.
Thomas Rowley a worker IN the held,
was caught in the path Of the flames
and sustained burns from which he VIII
die. This is believed TO be the only
casualty.
The fire started In a peculiar man
ner. Shortly before midnight a work
man lifted the top of his lantern TO
blow out the light. The atmosphere
was heavily laden with gas, and IN an
instant there was fash followed by
a sheet Of flame. The blaze was COM
municated 10 a small setting tank
nearby, owned by j. S. COrbett. In an
instant a derrick adjoining the tank
was enveloped in fire and with re-
markable rapidity the flames spread TO
other derricks in the Hogg-Swayne
tract, which comprises one of the larg-
est sections OF the oil field. The nre
department and hundreds of citizens
rushed 10 the scene, but their efforts
TO check the flames was unavailin6.
Excitement ran high and in the con-
fusion a rumOr became current that
twelve or fifteen persons had persisted
in the flames. This report was tele-
phoney to many outside towns, but
careful investigation at late hour dis
proved the report. There are no gush-
ers in the immediate vicinity or the
fire and unless a strong wind should
develop il is believed the damage will
be confined to the seventy-fiye derricks
and twenty-five pumping plants.

sweeping OV the oil field here tonight,
causing u property loss of thousands of
dollars and possible loss OF life IL Is

rapidity IL spread 10 the many derricks

twelve persons have persisted and that
the fatalities may reach twenty. The
entire HOgg-Swayne tract. comprising one
Of the largest sections in the oil fields,
will In all probability be burned. Forty
or more of the large derricks have been
destroyed by the flames. At this hour
the fire is spreading and the property
loss will be heavy The entire oil field
presents a brilliant spectacle as the
flames grow brighter and brighter.
At ! a. m. IL Is rumOred that fifty-fiVe
OF the Hogg-SWayne derrlcks and a Few
others are destroyed and that over 100
are still burning. IL Is said that five
tanks OF the Hogg-Swayne syndicate are
imperiled and that the tract seems
doomed.
