Charges in a Civil Action Against
Samuel Atkinson.

Samuel Atkinson.
Readers of the Record will remem-
ber an account of suit filed in the
last Friday, in which Samuel Atkin-
son is plaintiff against Mrs. Nellie
Paylor, defendant, in which plaintiff
asks for a dissolution of a partner
ship existing between them and for
division of their joint holdings,
which. 1t is claimed outside the legal
papers, amount to about $12,5OO in
value.
Saturday another suit between the
same parties was filed. and in this
Mrs. Paylor, who is the wife of Wal
ter Paylor, is plaintiff She makes
counter charges, saying that she has
tried to get an accounting and could
not and that plaintiff has tried to de-
fraud her, by having her deed to
him her interest in several different
pieces of property, by first gaining
her confidence and then explaining
how he could more expediently make
deeds and sell the said pieces of pro-
peryt in case he secured a buyer. She
recites several cases in which she al
leges that he got her to give him
deeds to their joint property in this
way. She also claims that he mad
her deed all her property to him, by
warranty deed, that he might hold
it in trust for her minor child in
case of her death, and that contrary
to their agreement, he has put shis
deed on record. The plaintiff also
claims that defendant is not the pro-
per person to look after her business
interests, giving allegations of pers-
onal reasons. She claims to have put
about $4,000 into their partnership.

Humble. Tex, July Recovering

mile. with a canopy of smoke covering
two square miles, the oil tanks of
thirty companies continue to ooil
and bubble under the great heat of
burning oil. the fire having burned
all night When it can be extinguished
no one guesses. certainly not until
!. has burned all the oil in the eleven
big tanks which had 100000 bar
rels when the lightning struck them
Sunday afternoon.
1t is now known that five negro
workmen perished. and rumors place
the number dead as high as fifty. Al
though this cannot be confirmed there
are hundreds of homeless people who
were living in tents and shacks in
the oil field, who lost all their be
longings. During the whole of the
night there was a heavy downpour
of rain and this covered the ground
with water coated with a thick film
of oil. II this oil catches fire, it is
probable that the tanks of the Guffey
Company. the Sun Company and ma
tanks hold 4.5OO.O 900 barrels of Oil
Shortly after the first big tank be-

mules hurried to the scene to throw

val. bubbled and lifted a great mass
of burning fluid bodily out of the
tank, and the fire communicated to
three other tanks. Then there was a
wild scramble for safety. Five negroes
were seen to go down, and 1t was not
thought that they could escape. While
all the men are not accounted for,
iACod utS are ali ludl are certainly
known to have perished. A number
Of mules balked. and at least forty
were cremated Early this morning
fire broke out in the steel tanks of
a station a mile from the original
fire. What damage is being done can
not yet be ascertained. because it is
impossible to reach that part of the
field.
At ten o'clock the fire was still rag.
ing with no prospect of immediate
control. 1t is believed. however. that
the flames will eventually be confin.
ed to the tankage district. There are
5000. 900 barrels of oil in storage
tanks. all OF which will be destroyed
The losses are already estimated a,
three-quarters of a million dollars
