The American Oil Company is said
to be moving steadily toward the
Moorcroft field.
The Poposia coal mine at Hudson
is running to capacity with daily
output OF 1900 tons and employing
200 men.
Many oil leases for lands around
Cody have been signed up and work
of drilling will probably be begun in
short time.
Quite a number Of Buffalo business
men are said to have left that town
for the purpose Of locating gold
mining claims in the mountains.
Considerable excitement has de-
veloped in the vicinity Of Basin be-
