FUEL. PERHAPS.
Crude Oil to be Piped From Limn to Cleve
land, Detroit, Toledo nnd Other
Cities A Statement Giving
Complete Details.
In the current issue of the Journal of Oil
and Gas, published at Fremont, O., is the
following on the subject of utilizing Ohio
oil for fuel purposes. It goes to show
that the Standard Company are going to
lay pipe lines from the Lima field to Cleve
land, Detroit, Toledo and other cities. The
fact that the pipe mills of this city are ship
ping car loads ot eight-inch pipe to points
on the ronte of the proposed oil line is con
clusive evidence that die lines will be laid
according to the following. The Journal
says:
Cleveland is to be furnished with petroleum
for fuel, to which the Journal adds the cities
of Toledo and Detroit with the probability of
Including other large cities In the future. That
Toledo, Detroit and Cleveland would be fur
nished with crude oil pipe lines is certain,
although the exact line to be followed is to
some extent conjectured. It has been ascer
tained by the Journal that the merging of the
two natural ga lines at Toledo, the North
western and the Toledo Natural Gas Company,
will soon be accomplished if not already a fact.
The absorption of the latter by the Northwest
ern Natural Gas Company (the Standard own
ing a controlling Interest in both lines), would
give them an opportunity of using the Toledo
line for crude petroleum.
With this object attained it remains an easy
task to continue the line to Detroit, an adapta
ble franchise having already bean seenred for
that city in the interest of the Standard. The
order given a Pittsburg firm a few days ago for
190 miles of eight-Inch pipe,indicatifig that per-
naps a vuauouous line wouia DO laiu .iruui
Cynget through Toledo to Detroit, with one
pumping station midway, might be nearer the
case than the use of the line already built to
Toledo, but it is the opinion of many conver
sant with the facts that the latter proposition
will prevail.
The course to be taken by the Cleveland line
is, no doubt, settled by the engineers of the
company. Commencing at North Baltimore it
will then occupy the Northwestern Natural
Gas Company's right of way, in any event, to a
point directly west of Beltsville, Seneca coun
ty, from whence it will either be continued to
Fremont, or, what is more probable, direrge
West of Beltsville, and leaving Fremont to the
north, follow the lino of the NIckle Plate Rail
way to Bellevne, from which point the massive
iron pipes will run straight as the crow flies
through Wakeman to Cleveland.
The Standard has purchased five acres of
ground near Wakeman for a pumping station,
and have ordered their wire to be cut and an
office put in the village, and being about the
proper distance from Cleveland for a pumping
station (44 miles) there is no conjecture as to
what other use may be made of the land. It is
thought that but one pumping station will be
needed between Cynget and Cleveland, and the
order for construction material to be delivered
within 90 days indicates that before the coming
fall the cities mentioned will be enjoying the
benefits of the new fuel.
That the Cleveland line was contemplated 24
months nrevions is nroven bv the. fact that the
Vandergrif ts, in the interest of the Standard,
prospected the territory near Wakeman with a
3,000-foot well in 1SS7, pursuing the same course
as at Warren, O.. where is built the pumping
station for the Pennsylvania product between
Hilyard and Cleveland.
There seems to bo no question but that the
fuel of the future, outsiae of the natural gas
cities, is to be petroleum, and that the Stand
ard will cease its maledictions against the
savory" stuff, unless, as outlined by New
York correspondents, the issuing of certificates
will not be considered.
Ohio crude has before it a great future, and
its use will extend to every branch of manu
facture and do service in all industries ere half
a dozen years pass by.
A PAGE OP THE UNWB1TTEN PAST
Disclosed by n Frenchman in Texas, While
Digging a Well.
rsrrciAi, teleqbam to the dispatch.i
Gainesvixi.e, Tex, April 18. A
strange discovery, one that is causing the
thoughtful to ponder over the unwritten
past, was made yesterday by a French citi
zen in the northwestern district of this
county. Having occasion to sink a well,
Mr. Somms, the Frenchman in question,
selected a spot in a valley near a ravine of
great length, and which during heavy rains
is transformed into a raging torrent, depos
iting in the valley limestone, gravel, mud
and other debris. After reaching a depth of
four feet, and while in a formation of lime
stone gravel that had continued almost un
interruptedly from the surface down, Mr.
Somms came upon the vertebra? and ribs of
an animal. The ribs were about the size of
a small pig's, and rapidly tapered. Care
lnlly unearthing the bones toward the ta
pering end, Mr. Somms soon came to the
rattles which, when counted, numbered 17,
the largest measuring six inches across.
Attracted by the strange find, the neigh
bors gathered in and the work of unearthing
the monster was prosecuted with vigor.
After laying bare 19 feet of the remains of
the monster of other times, imagine their
consternation at finding the entire skeleton
of a man of a tremendous stature, in the
stomach of the skeleton of the snake. The
remains of the man and serpent, so far as
the serpent has been exhumed, are as perfect
as when first denuded of flesh, and were
doubtless covered by lime and gravel soon
after death. Near the bones ot the man's
right hand is a rude stone hatchet, which a
local geologist of some repute states to be
similar to the handiwork of paleolithic
man.
BIG BOODLE YAMSIIED.
Mysterious DIsnppearnnco of a Bag Con
taining 815,000 in Gold.
Beahtebd, Minn., April 18. A pack
age containing $15,000 in gold has mysteri
ously disappeared from the office of the
Northern Pacific Express Company in this
city. Louis Hohman, the night clerk in
charge, received from the train arriving at
1:45 A. M. yesterday, four sacks of specie,
two of which contained $15,000 each in
gold and two $500 each in silver. The
money was consigned to the First National
Bank of this city, by the Northern Pacific
Railroad Express Company, to be used in
paying employes of the road.
Hohman says he carried the specie with
other express packages on his truck to the
door of the express office. He is positive
that he then carried all the specie into the
vault and then turned the combination.
Half an hour later, in checking up, he dis
covered that one of the bags of gold was
missing. He at once notified his superior,
but a close investigation failed to reveal a
clew to the missing money. Hohman has
been in the employ of the express company
for several years, and is regarded as honest
and faithful. t,

A Proposal From Germany That Meets
Wllk American Favor Plan to
Avoid Many Mistakes ot
Postofflco Clerks.
Washington, April 38. Superintend
ent Bell, of the Foreign Mails Office, has
received a commnnication from the postal
authorities of Germany recommending the
establishment of "sea postoffices" for the
distribution of German-American mails on
shipboard. The Secretary of the Imperial
German rostoffice, in his communication,
says that owing to the cons'tant increase of
their American 'mails for Germany, their
distribution presents very serlons difficul
ties at the German exchange offices. Arti
cles of mail matter are distributed errone
ously, and there are frequent delays in con
sequence, giving rise to complaint. Even
the Bremen office, he says, in spite of a
large increase of its force, is frequently un
able to distribute heavy American mails,
received via Bremen-Haven, in time for the
next mail trains from Bremen, so that, in
many cases, serious delays have been un
avoidable. "The Imperial German office," the letter
says, "has for some time given serious at
tention to this matter, with a view to find
some means of remedying the evil. It ap
pears that the most feasible and effective
plan would be to have the mails in question
entirely distributed by -postal employes on
board the fast mail steamers plying between
New York and Bremen, so that the German
exchange offices could forward mails with
out any delay whatever. These sea postof
fices could also greatly facilitate the work
of the American exchange offices by dis
tributing the mails from Germany for Amer
ica during the trip from Germany to New
York. The Imperial office is will
ing to establish these offices, and desires to
know whether the Postoflice Department is
inclined to bear one-half of the expense
from 547,600 to $71,400 per annum."
li Superintendent Bell to-day said that he
was of the opinion that the arrangement
suggested by the German authorities would
greatly facilitate the delivery of mails, both
in this country and Germany, but authority
must hrst be obtained from congress oelore
any steps in the direction indicated could
be taken by the Department
" A P00LSELLING CASE.
Judge Glldorsleevo Rules Thnt Bets Can bo
Made Outside of Race Tracks.
tSPECIAI. TELEGRAM TO TBI DISPATCH 1
New York, April 18 The Legislature
last year passed a bill introduced by Sena
tor Ives that made it lawful to buy or sell
pools on horse races run on incorporated
race courses in this State, provided that -the
races were run on any of the 30 days se
lected by the Governors of the track from
the period between May 1 and October 1 of
each year. A suit has been brought where
a city poolseller agreed to be the agent for
placing money at the track. Judge Gilder
sleeve said:
"I will take the case from the jury. I wish
to be understood as clearly and unequivocally
as ruling upon the question in this case. I
wisn to have it understood and announced as
my opinion that an agreement between A and
B, by which B shall place a bet made in this
city in some other place where it is lawful to
do so, is lawful.'
"That is conceded," said Mr. Jerome, "but it
is a question whether it is a lawful agreement
or an intent to cover an illegal transaction with
a trick and device. It is conceded that if the
track had a right to race on certain days there
is no offense. It it is a mere trick one so
tranSDarent and flimsy as this is. and so well-
known to everyone in the community to be a
trick it sbould be submitted, I hold, to the
jury as a question for their determination. If
we are to take judicial notice of what is to be
done at Brighton Beach I submit that we can
take judicial notice of the fact that none of
the policy shops in this city ever send a cent to
Brighton Beach or anywhere else to be regis
tered as a bet or wager."
"Thit is a foreign matter," said Judge Gil
dersleeve. "In this case the transaction is a
simple one indeed, and I see but one view to
take of it. II these places where a commission
business is done in the taking of bets to be
placed at the lawful! tracks are to be shut up,
the Legislature must make it an offense to
enter into an agreement of the kind, and the
entire business can be promptly stopped."

In the Spring
Nearly everybody needs a good medicine. The
impurities which have accumulated in the
blood duringthe cold months, must be expelled
or when the mild days come, and the effect of
bracing air is lost, the body is liable to be over

remarkable success achieved by Hood's Sarsa
parilla, and the many words of praise it has re
ceived, make it worthy your confidence. We
ask you to give this medicine a trial. We are
sure it will do you good.
"We have used Hood's Sarsanarilla for sev
eral years, and feel proud to recommend it as
an excellent spring medicine or to be used at all
times as a blood purifier. For children as well
as grown people we consider it the best. We
set aside one bottle for our boy to take in the
spring. He is nine years old and has enjoyed
good health ever since we began giving it to
him. We are seldom without it." B. F.
