Denies Oil Sand Report.
A. A. Holmes, interested with
Wharton and Allen in the well in sec
ton 12-5n-Sw, this morning denied
the report that an oil sand had been
encountered in his we'll
He stated that someone had brought
some oil sand to Chickasha which
showed plenty of kick" when tested
and which was claimed to have come
from the Holmes, Wharton and Allen
well. "There is no truth to the re-
port that we have an oil sand" said
Mr.. Holmes. ''We passed up about
sixty to seventy feet Of sand that
showed some gas. We did not think
it would make pay well, being, we
believed, about the same as the sand
found in the Arrasmith and McBee
well in section 1857. We are drill
ing at around 1900 feet, but have
not encountered any oil sand. We
hope to get the Arrasmith and Nc
Bee oil sand at around 1000 feet,
but will not report it until the bit
tells the story at that depth"
