MORE TANGLED

Situation in Senator Beans District
Seems to Be Getting Mixed
Up Some More.
Tullahoma, Tenn, Sept. 1O.-The
Senatorial muddle in this Eighteenth
district, has been settled by two or
three committee meetings and one or
two conventions, yet the settlement
seems to be very unsettled. The
Senatorial committee appointed by the
Lynchburg convention of Aug. 10 met
here on Monday, Sept. s, and formu-
lated rules and regulations for the hold
ing of primary election on Sept. 90
Now it appears that some parties
claim that candidates have the right
to have their names placed upon the
official ballots at any time before the
day of election, while on the other
hand, some hold that candidate, to
have his name printed on the official
ballot, must give notice to the govern
ing authorities fifteen days before the
election, and money to defray election
expenses must accompany the notice.
1t is known that there are one or more
candidates who have not yet made any
formal announcement, and who hold
to the first proposition given above.

BURNING GUSHER
Goes Out of It's Own Accord, and
Quiet Rules Over Texas Oil Fields.

Beaumont, Tex, Sept. 14.-The
burning gusher went out of its own
accord about B O'Clock this morning
and tonight the oil field Is in darkness.
1t is believed that the well choked
itself In some way and that it will
have to be cleaned before it will again
produce. There was big excursion
tod ay to the field, but aside from the
rusteu, bent machinery, which marked
the side of the various pumping plants
and the piles of ashes where derrlcks
had stood. there was nothing to see.
The daughghters have been kept on
guard all day, however. A meeting Is
to be held during the coming week to
devise plan for giving the hill better
protection. The loss has been a com
paratively light one, but why the en-
tire field did not go it is not cas-
TO explain.
