Special to The Tim es- Dispatch.]
-AMP1CO. MEX, July 10-The
oil field fire that has been
burning burning near, near ozuuama. ,,,l,y state t:e
five days Is the greatest and
most spectacular In the history OF thut
Industry. The blaze covers an area
one nile square, and 1t mounts to
heights OF one thousand to fifteen hun
dred feet. The officers and crews OF
vessels arriving here report that they
saw the light Of the fire when two
hundred miles at sea.
Arrivals here to-day from the scene
OF the fire say that the eartta's crust
covering the entire area where the
fire is burning was uplifted by ter
rifle explosion Of gas.
The surface OF the earth and rocks
have now entirely disappeared. The
whole territory of ono square mile
upon which a number of flowing oil
wells were located Is now s.ethinH
caldron OF burning oil. 1t Is estimated
that millions OF barrels Of oil have al
ready been destroyed. and there is no
hope OF the ire subsiding until all OF
the oil in the pool Is consumed.
Carried to Other Points.
The burning oil has spread into the
San Geronimo River and Is flowing in
broad stream into Lake Tamiahua.
It has spread to the forests along the
shore. and much destruction of pro7 :
crty is threatened from this source.
Lake Tamiahua has an outlet both to
Tampico and Tuxpam, and fears are
entertained that the scourge OF fire
may reach these places.
The whole country within radius
OF 100 miles is In danger from the fire.
The vast clouds Of smoke from the
burning oil hang close to the earth like
a pail. and the natives for many miles
around are In a state OF terror. Many
OF them believe that it is the begin
ming OF the end OF, the world.
| The roar Of the flames can be heard
for twenty-five miles. All boat traffic
upon the river has been SUSPENDED. q
BurnA Down to Pool.
The fire Originated at one Of the
flowing wells In the field. 1t seemed
TO work It's way down until It reache
| the pool OF OIL about 1000 feet below
| the surface. 1t was then that the
terrific explosion occurred. The up
! lift OF the earth gave the fire room
to spread to all parts OF the oil field
The Pennsylvania Oil Company. which
| is composed OF Pittsburg, Pa, men
lost machinery and equipment to the
value OF 100000. This is an infinitesi-
| NAL loss, however, compared with the
value OF the oil which has already been
destroyed.

PHILADELPHIA, PA, July 1O.-The
delayed Inquest into the death Of DR..
William II. Wilson, who died June 26til
after drinking bottle Of ale contain
ing cyanide OF potassium, was held
to-day, and the jury rendered q ver-
dict that the physician came to his
death from drinking the poisoned bev-
erage sent him by persons unknown
The mystery therefore remains as deep
es ever.
The principal witness at the inquest
was Mrs. Wilson. the wife of the dead
man. who testified that her husband
had quarreled with man who had
demanded $25 from him. Her husband,
Mrs. Wilson said. gave the man the
money, and she identified q receipt
In court said to have been given by
the man to her husband The name OF
the man was not made public, but It
developed after the inquest that the
man who had given the receipt to DIR.
Wilson had no connection with his
death. 1.
It developed at tho inquest that Mrs.
Wilson had failed to inform the ply
sicians she called In that her husband
had taken some ofSthe ale. More than
dozen witnesses We're examined In
the case, but nothing that was not
already known was brought out. Act
ing Coroner Sellers conducted the In

NIANAGUA. NICARAGUA, July w
News has been received here. that the
rebels who are fighting President
Davila, OF Honduras, have captured the

bara.
It is persistently reported here that
the movement in Honduras IS being
supported In guarded manner, by the
government OF Salvador and Guate-
mala. and certain information was re-
cetyed here last night which tends
very strongly to confirm these rumors.
Cholutrea Is one OF the most strong
" fortified positions in Honduras. The
insurgents were already in possession
OF the town Of Gracias and their posi-
ton will be much strengthened oS#the
capture of Cholutrea
