LAREDO, Tex, Oct. s.-Seversa
carloads Of machinery including ditch
diggers, etc, arrived at Bruni, Webb
County, during the past week and 10
being unloaded preparatory to START
ing work on this end of the gas line
that will extend from the Bruni-Cole
gas field to Callahan. McMullen Coun-
~. The pipe is rolling and is az

from Callahan to a point o few miles

Petroleum Company, a distance of IL
miles, will consist of Pinch pipe,
from that point to the Carolina Texas
and the Bruni-Cole field, will consist
of S-inch pipe.
Work will be commenced at this end
as soon as the pipe arrives after which
it is estimated that about two miles
of the line will be completed daily. II

BIG GAsSER.
Ehe latest report from the Jennings
gas field stated that the Texas Com
pany test No. 1 blew in as a large
sasser early Wednesday morning with
part of the drill stem in the hole. The
crew was removing the drill stem from
the hole and had taken out something
over 1000 feet when the we'll blew in.
The hole was cleaned by the gas press
ure but the drill stem was not blown
out. The total depth of the hole is
yaI nf "a a.
not known whether the gas is coming
one of the various sands that have
been passed through to this depth.
Ten-inch casing was set in this hole
at the depth of 905 feet. In the two
wells to the west and north of the
present test, gas is being produced
from the 1200-foot horizon. 1t is re-
ported that both wells are capable Of
producing about 100000 cubic feet
of gas each, daily. In the present test
it looks like deeper producing hori-
zon has been encountered, which in
all probability will revive the old Jen-
nings field which has been dormakt
since the Border gas line was extend
ed to the Carolina-Texas field.
