Special to The Oil REVIEW.
Lima, O., Feb. 17.-Not since
the days of the old Oil City, Pa,
exchange, when prices rose and
fell and wiped out thousands,
have the crude petroleum produc-
ers of the country received such a
blow as that which fell when the
Standard made it's first move IN
reply to the Legislature OF Kansas
last week.
Oil operations which have been
dead throughout Ohio and Indi-
ana, and but slightly better in
West Virginia, will undoubtedly
revive in the near future, if the
State of Kansas makes good its
threat to continue the war against
the Standard. There are few drill
ing wells now, and the production
is dwindling at the rate OF 1000
barrels a day. Should the pro-
duction which has become i'm
mense in Kansas since the lively
season of 1904, now be refused
as the Standard has ordered, Op-
orators in these fields expect to
see rapid market advances. South
Lima and Indiana oils are now
selling at So cents a barrel, and
a year ago they commanded $1.25
and $1.30 per barrel.
Kansas and the west undoubt-
edly caused the big slump, as the
Standard hasn't the pipe line ia
cilities there to care for the oil
brought above ground. The great
company was in the midst OF

Suspicious of Austria.

A dispatch from Vennasays: Speaking
of the naval demonstration against Tur-
kew which combined feet of the powers
will make in the event Of the Sultan's
continued refusal to accept the ultima
tum of the powers on Macedonian reforms,
a prominent diplomat said yesterday;
The giving to an Austrian admiral (Ad.
nniral Ritter yon Jedina) the command
of the combined fleet is dangerous
honor, because Austria is being jealously
watched by the powers, who will not
permit her to reap any Of the benefits,
anc nobody doubts that it is the ulti-
mate intention of the powers to secure
material advantages at the expense OF
Turkey. Germany would never for an
instantlpermit Austrian aggrandizement,
because Italy, in retaliation, would take
steps leading To the breaking up OF The
triple alliance, and without the triple
alliance Germany would be practically
isolated in Europe. Germany and Italy
are willing for Austria to bear the oDus
of the action against Turkey, but they
are unanimous in the determination that
she shall reap no reward, while Great
Britain would gladly look upon any ac-
ton tending to weaken the triple alliance.
Turkey undoubtedly fllly realizes the
weakness Of the proposed demonstration,
owing to the jealousies of the powers,
aud, therefore, she is likely to prove OBJ
durate.'

Bull Fight in Texas.

At the bull fight at Ciudad Jaurez near
FL Paso, Texas on Thursday, given for
the American mining convention, there
was a panic when Felix Robert, the
French matador, vino claims to be the
only matador OF that nationality, was
tossed in the air and cBrried from the
arena bruised and bleeding.
Later the same bull, a ierocious
beast from the ranch of Gen Ldis Ter
ras, governor of chihuahua, made a run
and plunged its long sharp horns through
Matador Francisco AloDziO Plquiro,
tossing him into the air first, then drag
ging him about the ring, bloOl stream
ing from the wounds in The man's
body.
The spectators sickened at the sight,
and women tainted and screamed to be
taken out. The arena was packed with
Americans from every section of the
United states, few Of whom had ever
seen a bull fight, and for a time the
situation was serious. Many men
rushed from the sicsening sight in
horror, while the women in many
instances were carried out unconscious.
Order was finally restored, but most
of the Americans left, deciding that they
had already seen enough of the Mexican
and Spanish national sport, although
this was only the second bull up for
slaughter out Of the four marked for the
matador's sword.

climbed the stairs to the study room

the invisible somewhere. Tie principal
