CULlMAN

Cullman, September 1S.-(Special)-- The Oil driii, which was unloaded at Hanceville is being set up on the farm of Ira Whaley. near Stouts mountain, and work will begin at once. The drill CTS are prepared to go 1000 feet if necessary. Jenkins ". Jones and two other geologists decided upon this spot as the most likely place to find oil in this section. The Whaley place is not far from the farm of Joe Cone.
 The spot chosen for the well is on the same formation the gas and oil wells in Fayette,. where large quantities of natural gas have been found and 1t is expected that gas will also be found in the well which will be first drilled.
 The Whaley farm is located in the coal section of the county. Several years ago F.. C. Kinney had well dug where some natural gas had been To- cated in railroad cut on his place. quantity of gas sufficient to burn four hours was found. The well was dug by inexperienced men, however, and dur ing one of their experiments the rops caught fire and burned up. Nothing else was done with the matter. This land is owned by E. C. Kinney and A A. Grif- fifth. It has been leased by the company from Cincinnati.
 The body of Virgil Stevens, who lost his life in an accident on a tramway Tn England two years ago the 25th of this month, arrived here this week He was the son of Mir and Mrs. Will Stevens. who live near Logan. Young Stevens was killed a short time after he arrived in England. The funeral and burial took place at the Cross Roads cemetery.

Mir Lambert was recently appointed sheriff by Governor Kilby to take the place of Sheriff Graves sentenced to seven years Tn the penitentiary for the kill ing of an alleged moonshiner while attempting to make arrest

DEBATE GERMAN
COAL DEMANDS
Decide Not to Require Immedi.
ate Answer to Ultimate; Elk,
perts Studying Situation

Spa, Belgium, July 13.-The allied
prime ministers have decided not to
insist upon the Germans replying to
allied ultimatum regarding coal de-
liveries at 3 p. m. today. The Ger
mans will be permitted to defer their
reply until tomorrow.
The experts on both sides are
spending the day re-examining the
situation. The allies originally de-
nanded monthly delivery of 2,200,-
900 tons of coal by the Germans.
The Germans offered 100000 tons.
The ultimatum informed the Germans
that they must agree by 8 p. m. today
this monthly delivery or the allies
would take measures to enforce the
terms of the treaty of Versailles.
