Hackett was non committal but quite
frank. He stated that there had been
a melting, after It had been stated and
appeared from the discussion Of the
Ward bill in the Senate that it was
favored by The heads of the party.
The meeting, said he, was in a way
informal and that the letter prepared
at that time was itself informal. II
was written for the purpose, he said.

chairman to call meeting, and also
asking their views as to the advisa bill

Mr.. Hackett thought for a moment
or so and announced that he had for
gotten some of those who were i'll at

Moore and Mr.. Hackett agreed.

The time set for the larger con-
ference is "Wednesday. Until Shen,
and until the letters come in reply to
the joint letter sent out by Messrs.
Gallert, Hackett, Moore, Eller and
the three or four forgotten members.
ii will be matter of consuming in
terest as to what proportion of the
committee will follow the
section which, has suffered defeat in
the matter of the Ward bill, and is
irritated at the position of the party
If it be true, as it appears to be,
that the members of the committee in

odds Of confidence that does not stop
at the size of their game when they

An Interesting Oil Case.

A decision in most impOr-
tant case, and of special interest
to the oil operators of the state,
was handed down by Judge Lynch
recently.It was the chancery cause
of the Reserve Oil company VS..
The Crude Oil company, and
others. The suit involved the le-
gal construction of an operating
contract between the gas com
pany and the oil company, the sim
gle and double packing method of
sealing a gas well and the alleg-
ed waste of gas. The court held
that there was no malicious waste
of gas, but indicated that a great
deal of gas had been unnecessarily
wasted. The injunction granted
in the cause was perPetuated. The
case involves about $1,000 acres
of oil and gas territory in this
county, lying principally in the
Freeman's creek district.
The Crude Oil company will
take the case to the Court of APP
peals, and the final decision of the
higher court will be looked for
ward to with much interest both
by the legal and oil fraternity of
the state.-ManningtOn Advocate.
