Co. have lately brought in two good
wells on MurrIn apd Simpson farms,
both good gas and second sand wells.
The new oil well near Volant, On the

created considerable of sensation in
that county, 1t is but 800 feet deep
and the oil is of the best
A deep well-The Carnegie Steel Co.
intends drilling well to depth of six
thousand feet, and have selected spot
four miles west of Waynesburg, Greene
comfy, Pa, for the experiment. The
derrick is of steel, and the rope mix
ture of hsmp and steel threads. They
expect to get supply of gas at that
great depth.
Note-In the Derrick's oil report for
July, the Hazelwood well on the Geible
is rated at 40 bbls. and the Finegan on
the Wilhelm at 20-the two largest
ratings in the county.
The recent cut in the prices of the
various grades of crude oil at the wells
has been generally accepted as due to
the enormous overproduction of the new
fields in the West. Illinois has come to
the front within the past year, as an en-
tirely unexpected factor, and the pro
duction of the Mid Continent field has
been increasing with great rapidity.
From theae two sources alone there is
an aggregate yield Of over no. bar

large proportion of 1t can converted
into an acceptable and satisfactory il
