that there seems little doubt now

Would Mean Big Jump.
The bringing in of this well would
mean the jumping of production en-
tirely over dry hole and into new
territory. The Mummert well, In
section 1S-5n-Sw is classed as dry
at a reported depth of $500 feet.

Mr.. Holmes states that his well
Is running practically in line with
the log OF the LeMaster producer in
section "a indicating, he says, that
the formations are rising again from
the dip. He reaches this conclusion
by a comparison of the logs of the
LeMaster and Mummert wells, with
the log OF his own well.
Next week should see again, tho
bringing in Of at least two new
wells. These are the American
Drilling company and the stogner

sand, reliable reports say and they
hit it about the same time. They
should be ready to complete tho
wells some time next week.
The fraternity in general is not
in the least discouraged over the
two dry holes, the Luginbyhl and
the Mummert. Luginbyhl was in
wildcat territory and Mummert was
a mile north of the extreme north

It is pointed out that the Holmes,
Wharton and Allen well is far
enough removed from either the
or the Mummert to mako

In the main body of the field,
there is much activity and before
the end Of next week, there should
be number of wells on the sand.

NEW BRUNSWICK. y. J., October
14.-Four weeks ago today New
Brunswick was stunned by the news
Of the discovery of the bodies of DR..
Edward Wheeler Hall. pastor Of the
Church Of St John the Evangelist,
and Mrs. Eleanor Mills, choir leader.
in a field just across the Middlesex
county line in Somerset county.
Today, after passing through a
month Of investigating, probing and
inquiry. New Brunswick went to
work in shirt sleeves in an atmos-
phere of submerged excitement, in
the knowledge that this bustling
MiddleseX county town of $1,000 souls
is the scene of what is developing
into the murder mystery of the gener-
alton.
After all the work Of the authorities,
the fumbling of clues and injection of
new angles. there has been no direct
arrest in connection with the case.
Three persons are being held as a
result of the investigations, it is true,
but that throws no light al all on the
main Issue.
Pearl BANNER and her father Nick
are being held on statutory charge.
Raymond Schneider is being held for
perjury because he gave a story to
authorities duplicating his pal. Cliff
ford Hayes, in the murder.
Involved by Schneider.
The Bahmers were drawn into the
case by Schneiders story. No i'm

the latter. The whole town turned
out to evince its confidence in Hayes
and today almost 100 girls and boys
are combing the city with badges
obtaining subscriptions to defray the
expenses of lawyers who obtained
his release.

EVACUATION Is ORDERED.
Greek Officers Trying to Maintain
Discipline.

By the Associated Press.
ADRIANCPLE, Thrace, October IA,
-Evacuation Of tho Greek troops
from eastern Thrace, under the terms
ofs the armistice signed by the allied
powers and the Turkish nattonalists
at Mudania, was due to begin today,
in accordance with a formal order is
sued by the Greek military headquar-
ters here.
The Greek officers are making an
effort to maintain discipline among
their troops, so as to carry out the
evacuation without disturbing Incl
dents.
The sentiment in favor of resist
ance has been largely modified by the
announcement of the pending arrival
of 5000 allied troops, as the Greeks
obviously are unwilling to oppose the
allies, although they might have
made q determined stand against
Turkish soldiers.
French and Italian detachmen ents are
expected to arrive at Sinekli tomur-
row, thence proceeding to various
posts throughout the province, three
British battalions arriving stimuli
taneously at Rodosto.

by Own Terms.
In view Of published suggestions
that the five-power naval Limitation
treaty. negotiated during the Wash
ington conference, might be made ef-
fective as between Great Britain, the
United States and Japan, the three
powers which have ratified, it is
pointed out here that the pact itself
specifically states that it is to become
effective when all five powers have
duly exchanged ratifications.
There is no reason to believe that
the American government would IA
vor or see any necessity for negotiat-
ing preliminary three-power agree
ment making the terms of the pact
effective prior to ratification by
France and Italy, even though such
a step would be possible through q
three-power protocol.
