The Associated Press learns that the

When Michael Davitt was last in the
United States, he saw President RooSe-
welt, who mentioned Colonel Lynch to
him, saying he had once entertained
him at Albany.
The president expressed great inter
est in the case, and regretted he could
not suggest clemency without laying
himself open to a palpable snub. On
his return to England, Mr.. Davitt men
toned his conversation with President
Roosevelt to Sir Thomas Upton and to

since her husbands arrest. He also
made pathetic appeal TO Sir Thomas,

The building of the line to Kansas

The line will be the largest stretch Of
piping laid in many years, although It
will probably not be in excess of the to-

to the Charity hospital. The warden
has a half dozen wounds on the head,
none of them being serious.
The prisoners who made the assault
are Fred Bond and George CORVALLIS,
both awaiting trial on the charge of
larceny. CORVALLIS called Beckwith
to the CELL saying he believed that
Bond, who occupied the same cell, was
seriously i'll. Beckwith summoned
Warden Gotwals, who, not suspecting
anything. Immediately entered the cell.
The instant he stepped inside, Corn
wallis closed the door and both prison
ers seized iron bars and pounded the
warden until he became unconscious.
Then the two prisoners left the cell
and assaulted Beckwith, who had made
desperate attempt to help his chief.
Beckwith. who is 70 years of age, was
able to make but a weak defense, and
under a rain of blow from the iron
bars, sank insensible to the floor. Corn

TO TAKE AWAYKANsAs OIL
Standard OIL Plans to Build Pipe
Line East.

Cleveland O., Jan. 25.-The Standard
Oil company has made an appropria-
ton for the construction OF pipe line
to connect the new Kansas and Indian
Territory oil fields with the refinery
at Whiting, Ind, near South Chicago.
The project involves the laying of zoe
miles OF line at a cost OF S5.500.000. and
with pumping stations, the total outlay
will be over 81, 600, GOO
Probably so per cent. of the re<ined
products of crude petroleum used in
home consumption finds a market east
of the Mississippi. The economy of the
pipe line system will thus effect a
great saving in the cost OF transporta-
ton, and at the same time it will per-
NIT the Kansas product to participate
in the economies of manufacture. There
is no economy to the Standard Oil COM
pany IN locating large refining plants
at the points of production. The i'm
mense plant at Whiting was located
several hundred miles west of the
Trenton oil fields of Ohio and western
Indiana in order to save TRANSFORMATION
charges to the great central point of
distribution at Chicago. For the same
reason large plants are located at
Bayonne, N c., for the manufacture of
export oil. and at intermediate points
for distribution in the central west.
The crude oil is run through the lines
from both the Appalachian and Ohio oil
fields both ways. and manufactured at
the points of distribution nearest to the
markets for which destined
The Standard recently increased the
capacity of its refining plant at indie
pendence. Kas.. and report appeared
that further engagements were con-
templated. but the fact that the ap-
preparation has been made for a pipe
line to Whiting, indicates that the re-
fning plants in the western field will
be limited to the requirements of local
consumption, and that the greater part
of the western product will be manu-
featured at Whiting.
Every effort is being made by the
agents of the oil trust to encourage de-
Velopments in Kansas. The depletion
of the older fields makes itavitally i'm
portant that the new territory should
be given every encoura cement. The
Kansas field is meeting with every ex-
pectation. the runs from the wells in

District Overcome.

independence. Kas., Jan. 25.-The
water question, one of the draw backs
to the Kansas oil field. was satlsfac-
toriIy settled last week by heavy
rain. the first since October. This has
had the tendency to make production
easier and more satisfactory, as Well
as larger.
On the Etz farm. east of the Rrede-
hoft farm two miles, a well has been
completed by Bateman, Horton & Co,
which looks as if there would be little
return on the investment. This Well IS
close to clusters on the P. Cohrs and
another Cohrs farm, and is the second
drilled by these operators. The small
patch in that immediate neighborhood
looks to be devoid of oil. though there
are several excellent wells within q
couple of miles.
Another of more Importance is the
test drilled by E. o. Eyeman, of KAN
sas City, on the Geiger farm, in the
northeast quarter of section I, indie
pendence township. This one is two
miles west of the BredehOft farm and
one and one-half miles west of the Eel
lows, the nearest production. Conserv-
alive estimates places its probable pro-
duction at $50 barrels Another well,
south of here is owned by Gillespie,
and on the Bredehoft farm, in the
southeast quarter of section 13. If it
proves to be a fair producer it will give
an impetus to drilling closer to this
city.
There are many additional wells
drilling in the Bredehoft Walker
Mound and Skoko pools. On the Booth
farm, IN the Shoko pools. Smith &
Booth have finished their No 5 on the

HARD TASK FOR O'BRIEN.
Philadeiphian Will Tackle Tommy
Ryan Wednesday Night.

Chicago, Jan. 25,-Jack O'Brien, of
Philadelphia, Will be asked the question
of his life Wednesday night in his own
arena He will oppose Tommy Ryan,
claimant OF the middleWeight cham
pionship, in q six-round fight, and as
usual in Philadelphia there will be no
decision if both men are on their feet
at the end of the sixth round The
spectators Will be left to Judge of the
merits of the men as they see fit
This is the one battle OF all that
might be arranged that fighting enthu-
s1asts have been anxious to see con-
summated. The men have been
matched half dozen times, with fair
prospects Of deciding the question, but
something always interviewed to pre-
vent the meeting. OBrien has time
and again blamed Ryan for dilatory
and weak-kneed tactics, while Ryan
always retorted that he was ready and
willing to box o Brien at any time or
place where q fair break could be ob-
tanned.
In the present agreement there is lit
tie doubt that the crafty O'Brien out
matched the foxy Ryan. and it was
only by an appeal to the latter's finan-
eial instincts that O Brien was able to
prevail upon Tommy to sign the
articles A purse of 5000 was offered
for the meeting by club in which
q BrIen Is understood to have a
healthy working interest. This amount
will be split equally, each getting 81
sos. Ryan did not want to tackle Jack
in short fight, preferring route of
at least 10 rounds, but that s.. 500 looked
pretty good to him and when the club
made further offer of two railroad
tickets and $50 expense money Tommy
fell and signed the articles.

Ex-senator Harris Not for the New

William A Harris, former United

and that President Roosevelt's Panama

SYSTEM OF CREDIT.
It Is Responsible for Germany's
Troubles in Africa.

Berlin, Jan. 25.-Light has been
thrown by the Frankfurter Zeitung on
some of the contributory causes of the
Herros rising in German Southwest
Africa as the result of statements made
to that paper by a traveller who has
just returned from Windhoek and Okla
handja The merchants and the gradess
allied with them are charged with pur-
posely involving the natives in debt
According to this traveller the traders
are mostly discharged soldiers whom the
merchants equip with wagons and from
ands of marks. The traders sell at first
entirely on credit, not requiring any
cash until they make later trips. The
improvident natives buy largely and
repeatedly on these easy terms and the
merchants favor the system by extend
ing and renewing the credits of the
traders, sometimes to IL, 900 marks. The
traders finally begin collecting portions
of the debt. taking cattle in payment,
and at the same time selling more goods
on credit The natives are often in
debted to several traders at once. The
Frankfurter lettings informant adds
that ne found the merchants took an
average of 10 per cent profit on the
transactions OF the traders and the lat
ter added 100 per cent, usually made 20
per cent more on the cattle which they
took in payment The traders further
aroused the anger of the natives by
Selling the Iatter's cattle arbitrarily,
without waiting for legal process. It is
true that the authorities .orbid this, but
the natives usually do not complain,
merely nursing their grievances. and il
they do complain the police have diff
