THE MEXICAN SITUATION

Washington, April IS. - With the
largest forces engaged on both sides
since the days of Diaz, the battle of
Celaya between Villa and Obregon
has developed into a conflict of the
first magnitude.
State department advices indicated
today that Villa has secured a mate
rial advantage. Part of his force has
been so disposed that Obregon's re-
treat is imperiled. Two divisions have
been cut off and are in grave peril of
destruction.

Would Take More Oil.

The Producers Refining company,
which owns the pipe line to Gaines
Vile, is running about 1O,500 barrels
day and would be taking more if
they could get the oil. The company
does not have its gathering system
to all the properties in the field, and
it is possible that an extension of
the gathering lines will be made
within short time.
President II. NJ. Evans of the com
pany stated while here a few days
ago that the matter would be pre-
sented to the directors of the COM
pany and prospects are good for the
extensions to be made. The company
has an excavation made for $4,000
barrel steel tank at the pump station
at Healdton and is expecting the
steel to arrive at Wilson today. This
will be the company's first 10000
barrel steel tank in the field.

Company May Sell.

Col J. A. Puffenberg, has disposed

Company and members of that com
pany were in business conference
nearly all day yesterday and last night
with Oklahoma City parties. An
agreement has been made for the sale
of the property to persons who are
financially able to take hold of the
lease and develop it in workman-like
manner. While an agreement has
been reached, a trade has not been
consummated. Members of the com
pany are of the opinion that a deal
will grow out of the negotiations now
being carried on.

Another Sand Found.

Rumors last night were persistent
that oil had been found in the Okla
homa-Louisiana well in section 1872,
one mile north of the Wildcat jim.
The drill there reached the oil sand
about 100 feet higher than the sand
in the Wildcat Jim. Mr.. Athey, who
had charge of the drilling of both
wells, was of the opinion that the
sand would be found earlier in the
well in 7-2-2. The oil men generally
are expecting a more prolific sand.
The hole is full of water and it will
require several days to clean the
well out and test the sand

shut down at 1925 feet. waiting for
the arrival of the owners, who will
probably arrive here Thursday night
A showing of oil was found and it, is
the opinion of Earl Athey, who drilled
the well, that a pay sand has been
reached. The well has 1850 feet of
water and no one can form a cor
rect estimate of the sand with that
much water in the hole. The top of
the sand in the Wildcat Jim, located
in an adjoining section, was reached
at 1880 feet. A report from the
well this morning stated that it was
developing some gas.

Persons from this city who visited
the Ardmill well in section l7-5-5
near Oakland yesterday report that
the well is in bad condition and it
looks now like it will have to be
abandoned. The company is serious

the rotary rig that is on the well

"PLEAsEO WITH OUTLOOK"

For some time it has been rumored
that another drug store was going in
on West Main street, but so little has
been said about the matter lately
that it was thought to have been
abandoned Last week, however, a
party who is interested liz the propo-
sition was in the city and looked over
the Baird building on West Main
street and announced that in all
probability he would open a drug
store there before long.
He stated that he was not at liberty
to tell who the parties were who
would operate the store, but limited
that a stock might be moved from Ma
dill to this city, if the deal was con-
summated.
The parties who were here looking
over the situation stated that they
were very favorably impressed with
the future of the city, an1 seemed 70

opening a drug store was open in
