Henrietta Gas Field.

Henrietta, Texas, May 9.-Another
stratum of gas was struck Saturday in
well No. about three hundred feet
below the first stratum, which was
cased off. There are altogether six
gas wells now finished, which has
caused the rate in Henrietta to be re-
duced to SC for factory and zoe per
1000 cubic feet for residences. Work
will begin in the near future to lay
the pipe line to Dallas. Experts who
have been in this field predict that
this will be the greatest gas field in
the United States. They think now
that it will extend twenty-five to thir-
ty miles south of town The shallow
gas well reported in town some weeks
ago is now roaring away as strong as
ever. Standard rigs are now at work
within a radius of eight miles of Hen
rietta. Gasmen are watching and ex-
pecting some of them to come in the
next two weeks.

Haskell CASE UP AGAIN |
New Grand Jury Met at Tulsa, OKLA,
Today, to Reinvestieate Town
Lot Fraud Cases.
(Herald Specially


Tulsa, Okla, May 10.-In compliance
with the orders issued by the attorney
general of the United States a new
federal grand jury met here today to
reinvestigate the Muskogee town lot
fraud cases in which the names of
Governor Charles N. Haskell and a
number of other prominent Oklaho
mans were recently involved.
Governor Haskell and six others
were indicted at Muskogee last Jan
uary, charged with conspiracy to de
fraud the federal government and the
Greek Indian Nation in connection
with the scheduling of Muskgoee
town lots in 1902. The indictments
were quashed here last month by
Judge John A. Marshall of Utah be
cause they were returned by a grand
jury composed of twenty-three mer
instead of sixteen, as provided by the
Arkansas law, which was held to be
in force in old Indian Territory by
federal enactment at the time the al
legged frauds were committed.
All of the seven indicted men are
wealthy. Besides Governor Haskell
they are F. B. Sewers, Walter R
Eaton, William T. Hutchins, A. q
English, Jesse Hill and Clarence W
Turner.

intendent of the Fort Worth division
of the International & Great Northern,

one hundred to two hundred miles of

ned by Mr.. Martin, who wants the
privilege of doing the work himself
or of having it done under his per-
sonal supervision. Mr.. Martin hopes
to eventually ballast the full two
hundred miles, and expects this sum-
mer to put in the first one hundred
miles at an aggregate\ of something
near 100000. This work of ballasting
is quite Independent of the shell bal
last being laid ON the twenty-five
miles of track out of Houston.
Mr.. Martin is possessed of the con-
viction that his road and his division
can do anything any similar stretch of
road can do. The ballasting is in
line with the exhaustive course of i'm
provements that have bettered the
condition of the International from
the day that Judge T. ]. Freeman
