Mellen's speech before the Boot and
Shoe club of Boston last Wednesday
evening, places Mr. Meller in a rather
better light than did the first dispatch
es. Mr.. Mellcn is the president OF
the New York, New Hampshire ana
Hartford Railroad company, one OF the
largest transportation agents III the
country and the key to transportation
from New England Ia New YORK. ms
company has been the subject OF more
or less legislation in Massachusetts and
it is but natural that its offlclals chale
under the restraint imposed as we'll as
resent the proposition to impose
further restraint. Mr.. Meiieh stated
the position of the road to De that leg
isIative enactment to force the electrl-
f;caticn of lines around Boston would
be a mistake for such electrification
is bonnd TO come in time, and because
tho cast of such service would be eight
times as much in Boston as IN New
York with very much less volume of
business with which to pay interest
and increased capital required; that
Boston Buffalo line is feasible but I'M
necassarv. that tunnel communication
between the north and south sides or
the CITY of Boston is necessary; that
the road will let electric street rail-
uays alone in Massachusetts, but will
promote them as feeders in other
states. that the road will obey the laws
of Massachusetts in Massachusetts and
not elsewhere, unless the laws conform
to ordinary good business laws and
that markets must be furnished for
holding company's securities or Boston
and Maine improvements must stop.
There appears to be nothing remarka-
bile in this statement or nothing an
tagonistic to sane legislation. In reply
to a specific question as to what is the
outlook for identification on suburban
branches, Mr.. Mellen replied:
1T is Enthusiastically true that cleo
trifcation is coming upon all the
standard roads, first upon those where
the business is seriously congested, and
as our line probably has the greatest
concentration of passenger business OF
anv road III the country, naturally we
expect we shall have to be a pioneer IN
the substitution of electric traction for
steam.
Our company has already invested
a very large amount of capital i'll cleo
tric traction, as applied to standard
steam railroads, and is still expert
menting, largely with a view to the i'm
Drovement of the system we have al
ready installed.
These improvements have already
reached a stage where we know we can
again accomplish what we have for
far less money. and with probably
greater efficiency, and our experiments
are not Yet concluded
Such statements are of peculiar IN
terest in Maine where hydro-electric
power is available almost everywhere,

DRILLERS ARE LOOKING
FOR GREAT RUSH OF OIL
Big Gusher May Come in on Sun
set Company Property
Any Day

Advices from Bakersfield are to the
effect that one of the most significant
of recent developments was the dis
covery of the Pacific Sunset Oil com
pany of a deeper sand than had pre-
viously been known in the upper part
of the Sunset field on the south half
Of the southeast quarter of section 81,
1924 Previous wells in this vicinity
were 500 to 600 feet deep. Below that
point the early drillers found water
and did not venture further. The Pa
cific Sunset has gone through the water
sand and found the deeper Oil at 1880
feet. The second sand was explored to
a depth of 200 feet, when the gas
pressure became so strong that work
on the well was stopped in order to
prepare for the reception of the oil in
case a gusher is developed. The i'm
mediate result of the strike has been
to cause the Hanford- Sanger Oil COM
pany to start deeper drilling on its 20
acre tract in the northeast quarter OF
section 8, 11-24, and on the southeast
quarter of the same section. Other
companies will drill on the west half
of section g. and on other lands which
lie above the outcroppings of the first
been counted as barren. A mile or two
farther back in the hills are some
traces of another outcrop, and it is now
believed that this may be the upturned
, edge of the deep sand struck by the
Pacific Sunset. The Pacific Sunset well
is about a mile and quarters
southwest from the Lakeview, and on
section 35 which lies between the Union
Oil company, has gone into what is
supposed to be the same strata under
lying all three properties, and probably
the whole of the Sunset field. The
Lakeview struck the gusher sand at
22S5 feet, or almost exactly 1000 feet
deeper than the sand found by the
Pacific Sunset. This would indicate
rather steep, but by no means improb-
able dip to the northwest. The depth
at which the Union is reported to have
found the sand agrees with this theory
that the stratum is continuous.

MINING OUTLOOK IS GOOD
IN OLD MEXICO SECTION

The mining industry of Mexico, says
the Mining Age of. New York, Whlle
it's general conditions are improving
with the revival of prosp Gritty, Whlch
is noticeable throughout that country
possesses many possibilities that cam
not be overlooked.
There are many extensive regions
where little or no prospecting has been
done. In the northern mlhirs terri
tory, comprising the states OF Durango
and Chihuahua. and west TO the coast
many of the districts are rugged and
inaccessible and far from Transports
ton.
Where properties are being operated
nv mining concerns in restricted areas
a vast section is controlled by people
who keep out the small operator and
prospector Later these grants VIII
be opened up generally.
Within a period of the next ten
years, if the present substantial form
of government prevails in Mexico, adj
ditional security will be furnished both
operators and prospectors, and 1t is
quite likely that that country VIII be-
come one of the largest mineral pro-
ducing sections in the world.
Mexico's comparative proximity to
the United States gives it an advant-
age over many other mineral contain
ing countries, as American activity has
contributed more to make Mexico's
mines what they are today than any
other commercial factor This linked
with the administration OF President
