2,000 MEN LOOK FOR
 NEGRO MURDERER
Fourteen Negroes Are In Jail At
 ClarksyiIle. Texas.

Clarksville, Texas. July 31-Four- and about 2,000 white men are searching for another negro, Leonard Potts, who, within a week has killed two Texas police officers. His latest victim was Sheriff Charles Stevens, of th's city whom he shot last night. To wait and see what to do with them is the repeatedly expressed temper of the searchers in regard to the fourteen blacks in jail who are under suspicion of knowing some thing about Potts movements. Some of the prisoners are believed to be in danger of violence unless Potts is caught or their own innocence of attempts to hide Potts is quickly es- tablished.
 Not only are posses searching the country outside of Clarkesville thls forenoon, but the majority of the searchers are working on the theory that Potts is hiding in the city. Guards are placed on every train as it pulls out of Clarksville to remain until satisfied that no negro resem- b.ing Potts is abroad. A house to house search of the negro quarter is under way
 It is reported that Potts is sur rounded on Peters prairie four miles southeast oI here. Dozens of armed men have been rushed here to assist the posse in beating up the prairie for the black.

 This is being done on the theory that J. B.

COMPANY MAY
 YET PRODUCE OIL
ANOIHER WELL WILL BE Fl. HANGED BY LOCAL CAPITAL
 THROUGH GEO. 5. LINN
Experts Relieve This Section Will Aeld Oil and Gas-Vo Go Down
 2,60G Feet.

George $. Linn, former Pine Bluff lad and recently from Califor- ma, has been quite active the past day or so in passing a petition for the organization of a drilling. com pany to bore for oil or gas in this locality A considerable sum has al- ready been subscribed the matter hay Ing been taken up by many of the leading citizens of Pne Bluff. The location of drilling will be decided upon later by the company and will be at a point near this city. MT. Linn expects Prof. F. M. Hutchinson Of Marietta, Ohio, here the latter part ef the week. Mr. Hutchinson is geologlst and a prominent oil man of the Eastern and Texas fields and after he has made a survey of Pine Blufl and adjoining country, a detI- nlte location fer the first boring will be decided upon.
 The surface indications and the general topography of the land in county is similar to that of the North Louisiana field. Also the legend of the old well drilled at Faith para lfels the logs of wells drilled in the Caddo and Terre Bonne parishes of Louisiana. The situation in this dis trlct appears promising enough to warrant the organization of a con- pany to d'g at least one test we'll The company probably will go to depth of 2.600 feet unless oil is en- countered ill paying quantities at less depth.
 The cost of drilling an oil well in California ranges from $30,000 to SS9,O00, and some times more due to drilling in harder formations than are met with in the southern terri tory Here the cost of a well will not likely exceed $10000 and has exactly the same possibility of reve- hue.
 MT. Linn experience extends over fields of the West.
 The announcement that new company is contemplating drilling for gas and oil is significant of the possibilities for industrial develop ment here. One gas well with a capacity Of 12,Q00000 cubic feet would be amply sufficient for all the feeds of a railroad shop ill the way of fuel and light The cos- would be but few thousand dollars and with the supply of gas practical ly inexhaus us,ible the saving to road or manufacturing plant would amount to an enormous sum within few years With producing gas or oil wells at say three .:nts in a radius of a few miles from Pine Bluff all the property adacent and between might be regarded ds prov ell" oil property so that $ well sunk anywhere in that territory would, in all probability yield oil CT natural gas.
 Here we have wide area suitable for Industrial sites and admirably situated with respect to shipping ia cilities. With the development of an oil and gas field Pine Bluff would be in position to offer free gas and oil at very nom nal rae to factories or to offer natural SIS with every manufacturing sic mefe:y at the cnst of drilling a well.
