Fields OF California.

Proven oil lands, completely sur.
rounded by as rich oil.producing wells
as there are in the State, yielding from
so to $50 barrels per day.
Contract prices for oil at the Coa..
inga wells, 20 cents per barrel
With twenty-five producing wells Of
100 barrels each per day, you can
make your own calculation as to
profits.
The oil industry OF California Is In
its infancy, yet many fortunes have
been made by judicious and lucky In.
vestments In oil stock. Many more
will be made in the near future.

the same show for even a greater ad
vance, as some oil stock has advanced
from 81 to $500 per share.

WASHINGTON, October 27.-There was
a brief reminder Of the Sampson -Schley
controversy in the United States SUI

the case entitled 1.-The United States VS..
w, T. Sampson, rcar-admiral, and 9th
ers." involving the distribution of prize
money because of the capture Of the
Spanish cruiser Infanta Maria Teresa in
the battle off Santiago. The case came
up for argument, and before the argu-
ment began, Chief Justice Fuller sug-
gested the necessity of substituting some
other name for that of Admiral Samp-
son. in view of the Admirafs death. The
court manifested disposition to demur
to a suggestion that the case proceed
under its present title, urging that the
name of some other naval officer could
be used That" he said, "of Admiral
Schley, or some one else,
The name Of Admiral Schley did not
appear to meet with the approval of the
attorneys present representing the naval
officers. One of them. James II. Hayden,

The question of the examination by the

Conditions Should Be Considered.

A meeting Of the retail liquor dealers
was held at Murphy's Hotel last night
to discuss the proposed $1,000 high Ii
cense ordinance of Mr.. w. A. Crenshaw,
which comes up before the Finance Com
mittee tonight.
The members present took occasion to
condemn in sharp language the attacks
made upon the saloon business and pro-
tested vigorously against the passage Of
the Crenshaw high license measure,
claiming that comparisons should nos
be made between this city and other
cities in fixing a license, claiming that
the conditions surrounding their business
here are different from those in other
localities.
After discussing the best means to con-
test the CrenshaW ordinance, resolutions
were passed expressing opposition to the
plan. and the following committee was
named to appear before the Finance Com
mittee tonight: Messrs. A. w Rosene,
George A. Cease, j. P. Brown, j. j..

Text of the Resolutions.
The text of the resolutions adopted
is as follows:

to make known to their fellow citizens

the vile scurrilouS, and lncalled-for Ian

sons in designating their trade. in a
manner hurtful to their standing as citi-
zens and merchants; therefore. be it
Resolved, That, while we feel deeply
grieved that such lbellous utterances
should be made against US Is citizens
and tradesmen, yet we are happily aware
Of the fact that it is not the free eN-
preston of the feelings and sentiment
of the very large majority of the reputa-
BILE intelligent and conservative people
who constitute the great body of the
citizens Of Richmond.
UnnIternbly Opposed.
H. Resolved. That we are llnalterabiy
opposed to the measure introduced IN our
City Council by Mr.. Crenshaw, and known
as the high license resolution, both as
to principle and eXpediency; for its pas
sage would deprive a large number OF
our citizens of their present means OF
living-a burden not imposed upon any
other class of tradesmen-and. therefore,
it would be class legislation of the worst
sort, and unjust to our trade.
Our. city is not in financial straits, and
can therefore afford to deal fairly and
generously with us in this matter. not
bv a comparison with other places. but
in a manner to meet the conditions ex-
listing here, for the trade of Richmond
is a regular one, and seldom influenced by
transient custom. as in many other To-
CalitieS.
