AUTO ACCIDENT
ALBERT WESLEY AND EMIL
PAULSON SERIOUSLY MUIR
ED IN TURN OVER.

An automobile accident attended
by serious consequences occurred
about 1880 yesterday morning on
East Eighth street, in front of DR..
Sears residence. The auto party
comprised Albert Westby, employed
in Heine's garage, Lars Westby. his
brother, Emil Paulson, employed in
Brown, Love & Wedgewood's garage,
and Clarence Holman, employed in
Jacks restaurant. At the time of the
accident the al was coming west
and Albert Westby was driving. The
of the accident is not plain,
but the car turned over, pinning
Albert Westby and Emil Paulson,
who occupied the front seat, under
the car, while Lars Westby and Clar-
ence Holman, occupying the back
seat, were thrown clear of the car
and escaped injury while Paulson
and Albert Westby were very seri-
ously injured. DIR. Sears had just
returned home from a meeting of the
Odd Fellows lodge, and hearing a
commotion in front of his house
went to the street and assisted the
young men. Albert Westby had ev-
tricated himself from under the a
and was sitting at the side of the
street, while Paulson laid on the
ground with the car resting across
his chest and unconscious. With the
help of Lars Westby and Holman,
DIR. Sears lifted the car off Paulson
and he vas also removed to the side
of the street where he soon regained
consciousness. DIR. Sears phoned to
central of the accident. and Drs.
Goldman and Kellogg WIRE notified
and Dol arrived and took the injur-
ed men into their auto and removed
them to Paulson's home, later re-
moving Westby to the hospital.
At first Paulson seemed the most
seriously injured, bleeding from the
mouth, but today he is much improv-
ed and no serious consequences are
apprehended. The condition of AL
beet Westby, however, has become
serious since the accident, his
injuries being of an internal nature,
and his case is considered somewhat
critical by attending physicians.

TRADE REVIEW
RETAIL BUSINESS HAS BEEN
HAMPERED BY BAD
WEATHER.

New York, April 6.-Following is
Bradstreet's review of business for
the past week:
There is a great deal of irregular
ity in trade reports. While business
in many lines makes an acceptable
comparison with last year, the hub
of complaints now heard is found in
the tendency to buy in small lots for
immediate use, rather than to make
heavy purchases for distant wants.
Withal, there is a good volume of
business, and while retail trade has
been hampered by unpropitious
weather, the movement in general is
forward.

Deepest Well Abandoned.

Oklahoma City, May 1S.-The deep
est well in Oklahoma is not a sue
cess 1t has been abandoned by the
drillers and the hole was 1856 feet
deep and penetrated every sand ever
found in the Cushing vicinity, will
probably fill up and be forgotten.
The first report from the well was
that it was flowing much oil. Direct
reports are that it produced very lit.
tie oil and much salt water. There
was only about eighteen inches of
the oil and gas sand. An eighteen
inch sand at a depth Of $500 feet is
not an attractive proposition to oil
men, and the expansion of the Cush-
ing field to the southwark in that
area is not likely to be brought about.

NAVY TO BUY OIL.
Report Is That Contract for Mexican
Production is Pending.

Washington, May 1S.-It is report
ed that the navy department is on
the Point Of making a contract for
2O,000,0OO barrels of Mexican fuel oil
for use on battleships. Owing to the
exercise incident to the unveiling of
the statue in memory of Commodore
John Barry no one at the state, war,
and navy building could throw light
on the proposed contract.
Oklahomans declare there are 10,-
100000 barrels of fuel oil produced by
independents in that state, and have
asked the government. through men,
bers OF the congressional delegation.
to take over the production and store
it for use of the navy. The contract,
the story goes, will be with an Eng
lish syndicate owning production in
the Tampico district. Members of the
Oklahoma delegation will look into
the matter with a view Of diverting
the business for producers of that
state.
