there are about 800 soldiers living III
Maine who participated in that event,

to number about thirty, and the only

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 22.-
Plans for securing the aid of experts

HEAD DRuLfR SffRIT HURRlfS TO SEATTLE
DrjII Strikes First Hard Formation and Bdi|tr
ngS Up Pure Oil. Lower Casing
Pulled lp and Well CAPPED

Grays Harbor is somewhat excited
today over the report which appears
authentic, of the striking of oil at the
Forks, in Clallam county, by the Wash
ington Oil Co. Owing to the isolated
region in which the oil field is located
it is difficult to secure definite infor-
nation, or verify what is reported.
Following are the facts SO far as
could be learned this morning.
The we'll of the Washington Oil
company at Forks Prairie, in Clallam
county, is about 70 miles north of this
city and Is miles north of the Hob
where the Jefferson Oil company is
boring. On Oct. 13, wood cutter
in the employ of the Washington COM
pany was at the well when the drill
at depth of 1472 feet struck the first
hard form alton it had encountered.
After fe5s M ,utes of drilling in this
hard formation Sefrit. in charge of
operations, lifted, the drill and to it's
jaws and points were clinging num-
erous bits of pyrites of iron.
The bailer was then brought to the
surface and contained at least two
quarts of pure oil floating around on
top of the water and debris. Mr.. Sc
frit secured this oil, swung the bailer
and drill aside, adjusted his rig and
withdrew from the we'll 700 feet OF
8-inch casing.
The next step was to fasten the trap
over the remaining 1O-inch casing,
which speedily became covered with
surface water.
Driiier Hurries to Seattle
Mr.. Sefrit, who was visibly excited.
then paid off his crew, paying over
$500 for wood cut on the word of the
cutters because he did not have time
to measure it, put a trusty dog and
night watchman in charge and went
to Forks, where he tried to get a
horse to take him to Clallam Bay in
order to catch the Seattle boat.
The bridge over the Clawah river
being down. the Forks people refused
to hire horse which would have to
swim the river, although Mr.. Sefrit
offered big price. Finally he tele-
phoned into Clallam and had horse
sent out to the river. He trusted him.

upon reaching the other side struck
out for the boat and hurried to Sc.
attic.
The above is the plain story, to
which may be added the facts that

RUN0VERBYCAR
INJURIES FATAL
Charles Johnson, Ship Carpen-
ter, ls'Kled by Trolley
Car Last Night

CHARLES Johnson, ship carpenter
living at Second and Pine street. was
run over by car at Second and Di-
vision last night between 9 and 10
O'Clock and sustained injuries that
proved fatal. His left leg was cut
Off above the knee. also his right foot
above the ankle and the second fing
er of his left hand.
When discovered by A. d. Mills.
motorman of the ear that left Aber
deem about 9:15, Johnson was living
by the side of the track about 1S inch
es from the rail, with the amputated
limbs attached to the stumps by small
bits of skin. Mills said that Johnson
condition was such that the injured
man did not realize what had han.
pened. and although he conversed
volubly with thes motorman and Con.
ductor r. II. Graham, he could not
give coherent account of the acci
dent. Mr.. Mills said he found two un.
broken flasks of liquor in Johnson's
pockets. The injured man was re-
moved to st. Joseph's hospital. where
he died at four o'clock this morning.
Investigation showed that Johnson
had boarded car at Twentieth street
in Hoquiam, bound for Aberdeen. about
an hour before he was found, in an
intoxicated condition. and that he was
assisted from the car at Second and
Division streets, and led a short dis
tance toward his home by Conductor
Graham. 1t is supposed that Johnson
wandered back to the track and was
struck by the next car from Hoquiam.
although Conductor Vault and the few
passengers who were on his car and
who could be located last night did
not notice any jar such as might be
expected when a car runs over an
obstacle as large as a mans leg.
johnson was fifty years of age, and
is survived by his wife and six chill.
dren. two sons and four daughters.
The funeral will take place Sunday
afternoon.
