GREAT GASSER
IS BROUGHT IN
$4,000, 900 WELL STRUCK ON TUR.
KEY MOUNTAIN.
A COLORADO CONCERN
Union Oil q Gas Company Owns the
Lease-Company Brought Here
Throug Efforts Of Meserve.

The Union Oil l. Gas company yes
terday afternoon brought in what
is probably the second largest gasser
in the celebrated Tulsa fields. The
well is located on Turkey Mountain,
seven miles southwest of the city.
The. test made when the well was
brought in showed a capacity Of l5,-
100000 feet, and it is confidently ex-
pected that it will do better than this
after Il time. The drilling of the
well began just thirty days ago. The
discovery of the well shows that the
Tulsa field is practically unlimited IN
the supply Of gas.
The Union Oil d Gas company is
owned and controlled by Colorado
capitalists. Louis +. Collins is general
manager Of the company. Mr.. Col
lins was induced to come to the ter
ritory through the efforts Of John b.
Meserve, who was legal adviser for
the company in Colorado for a num-
Der Of years, Mr., Meserve wrote to
Mr.. Collins of the remarkable re-
sources of the Tulsa field, with the
result that he came here and COM
menced drilling. The result is very
gratifying to Mr.. Collins and his
company.
The gas is Of the regulation high
grade found in the Tulsa field. The
roar Of the well can be heard fol-
miles around.
