A NATIONAL BENEFIT
Great Advantages to be Derived
by
All Classes From the
Pittsburg and
LAKE ERIE SHIP CANAL.
Prosperity Always Attends Upon the
Course of Such a Waterway.
A BOOS IK THE EYEXT OF WAB.
Sow Thit tha Project is Practically Cer
tain of Success the
FEDERAL GOYEKXMENT SHOULD ASSIST
Wednesday's proceedings of the Penn
sylvania Canal Commission leaves little
room to doubt that the report of the com
mission will be favorable to the project.
Business men in this city and elsewhere
will bail this indication with delight.
Transportation is, at all times, one of the
chief requisites! for the successful J con
duct of large business operations and the at
tainment of cheap transportation one of the
most important problems of to-day.
This is at the bottom of distribution. In
the bysone days of small enterprises and
individual effort this was a matter of less
consequence than now when each section of
this vast country is given the task of pro
ducing for the consumption of the whole
country those things most easily and eco
nomically produced by it,
( VTUEKE THERE AKE XO CAB FAMINES.
Canals were the first considerable step
toward solving the problem of cheap distri
bution in this country of magnificent dis
tances and greatly diversified natural
wealth, and there are not wanting evidences
that the field of the canal has never been
wholly filled by the railroads. It is an ob
served fact that in the Schuylkill
Talley in this State the furnaces
and factories adjacent to the canal are
running prosperously without the fear of
car famines or the remembrance of rebates
and discriminations, while the territory only
& little way removed from the canal, with all
of the natural resources of the Schuylkill
Valley contains only the moldering ruins
of just such enterprises as are flourishing in
the region cared for by the canal.
Through the State of 2ew York is a very
prosperous belt, following the course of the
Erie canal and Hudson river from New
York City to Buffalo. The railroads of the
Empire State are doing well enough, though
carrying passengers 1 cent a mile cheaper
than the railroads of Pennsylvania, bnt
they have not interfered with the mission of
the old canal. It has been of incalculable
service to the farmers and manufacturers of
the region through which it passes.
EVEX OP GEEATEl: BEXEFIT.
The DisrATCH believes the proposed
ship canal between Lake Eric and the Ohio
river will be of vastly greater benefit to
"Western Pennsylvania than the Erie tow
path canal has been to New York, and that
its benefits will be felt by the whole country
as well. It is no local affair. Chicago,
Cleveland and Buffalo will be about as
much benefited as Pittsburg.
A single arm in tne I'lttsburg region,
Carnecie, Phipps & Co., will ship from the
lake region to this section about 1,500,000
tons of iron ore. The other iron and steel
manufacturers draw their ore supplies
largely from the same region, making an
enormous tonnage in the aggregate.
From the Pittsburc region there is shipped
annually over 6,000,000 tons of coal to the
lake ports. Much of this goes to Chicago
by rail. Much of it is shipped to Lake
"Erie ports and transferred to vessels. The
ore coming this way is all transferred.
At this season when the winter coal sup
ply for the West and Northwest is being
inovej the ore shippers are prepared to load
the returning cars at the lakes. This makes
profitable business for the railroads and
naturally enough they are not anxious to
fnrnish cars for shippers to points from
which the cars must return empty. This
heavy traffic causes a car famine, principally
among the shippers to points from which
there is no return load and they are com
pelled to patronize some of the fast freight
lines with fancy emblems on their cars and
office stationery. The extra charges by
these lines go into the pockets of the rail
way managers. "
TRAXSrOETATION- COST LESSENED.
All this heavy freight could be handled
between the lake ports and the Pittsburg
region by vessels on the rivers, canal and
lakes, without transfer, at much less cost
than by rail. Its shipment by water would
relieve the railroads of the periodical freight
blockades and leave them free to handle
fast freight in a satisfactory manner. The
increase of business in the regions affected
would more than compensate for the loss of
heavy freight by the railroads, though the
interference of water transportation might
lessen the profits of the special freight
lines.
Said Captain John A. Wood, of the Canal
Commission, yesterday:
"One ol the best evidences of the cheap
ness and advantage of shipments by water
is mat the railroads of the South are among
the principal consumers of the coal we ship
down the river. This is not a case of com
peting freichts. It is an article for their
own use. Yet the railroads find they can
save money by letting us ship their coal
down the river instead ot hauling it them
selves. There is coal in the South, too, but
the railroads there prefer to use ours on ac
count of the quality.
AN AMERICAN CANAL NEEDED.
"Yes, we looked up the Welland ship
canal and were pleased to see bow the Can
adians were taking care of their shipping
interests. If they want to pass a vessel from
Lake Erie to Ontario, or the other way.they
just run it through their canal. If we want
to b-ans'er a vessel we can pay the price. I
think American sentiment is beinr awak
ened on this subject, and we heard much
talk of another canal on this side. In case
of war the Canadians would have a very de
cided advantage as matters stand now.
"Our investigations lead to better conclu
sions than we had expected. Our route will
cross the summit between the Ohio river
and Lake Erie basins at a point 67 feet
lower than the summit of the old canal, by
going around a hill instead ot over it And
an important thing about this route is that
it would give a summit level from 20 to 23
miles long. I think the report of the com
mission will be favorable.
'Had the old canal been built through to
Pittsburg instead of stepping at Rochester,
3 think it would be in profitable use yet
"When it was operated I saw, several times,
n dozen or more canal boats tied up at Roch
ester waiting for a rise in the river to get
to Pittsburg. Had the canal been extended
to Pittsburg these boats could have come
through, discharged cargo, received out
bound cargo, and Deen on their way back
while waiting for a rise in the river."
NATURAL ADVANTAGES.
The expense of constructing the canal
should not be le t wholly to this State. Its
advantages would be national in character,
and the General Gorernmentshould pay for
the work of construction. The State could
be trusted to pay for its maintenance.
It would benefit the Lake Superior ore
producer as much as the Pittsburg coal and
coke producer and the consumer of all these
products. When it reaches the Ohio river
it opens communication between the whole
Ohio and Mississippi valleys and the lakes.
The new coal region on the upper Mononga
hela and West Fork rivers, in West Vir
ginia, already hampered by lack of railroad
transportation, would enjoy the benefits of
the outlet equally with the Pittsburg
region.
The Monongahela river coal tonnage Is
now not far irom 3,500,000 tons annually
and with free locks on that river, a ship
canal to Lake Erie and the improvement of
the Ohio river a vast region full of natural
wealth will contribute to the gen
eral prosperity of the country. Chi
cago and the Northwest has as
great interest in this project as Pittsburg
and Western Pennsylvania. It means
cheaper coal and iron 'for them, cheaper ore
and grain for us. Better communication
between the two section and a better mar
ket tor the products natural to each.
There is no use in again going over the
advantages of such a water way in. case of
war. Those advantages to trie General
Government are obvious. Ceum.

ISrXCMI. TILEOUX TO THE DISPATCH. 1
Wildwood, October 9. This has been a
red-letter day for Wildwood and one that
will live long in the history of oildom. The
entertainment of the foreign representatives
of t fie Iron and Steel Institnte by the Forest Oil
Company and W. E. Griffith was In the most
royal manner and attended with the greatest
interest on the parts of tho distinguished
guests. They were initiated into the mysteries
of the production or oil in all its uarious rami
fications, and shown a roaring gas well, from
which they were enabled to form a just concep
tion of the great value of these kindred inter
ests to tho American manufacturer.
Field news of importance to-day is limited.
The Rinchelsen well! which it was expected
would reach the pay. failed to connect. At 6
o'clock the drill was dancing on the shell above
the sand, and at this wrltinp the well may be
one or two bits in. Gibson fc Giles' No. 6. Har
bnsli. is in tbe sand and flowing, but they are
not far enough In to determine the caliber of
the venture; by to-morrow night tbe drill will
tell the story. Tbe Forest &. Griffith No. 2,
Smith, which was shot to-dav with ten Quarts
for tne benefit and entertainment of the for
eign visitors, was materially increased, but
just how much is not known, as during the ex
citement no gauge was taken.
Tbe Harley well is only drilling inlday light,
and it is a question whether the well will get
in before tbe first of next week. Tbe Hancock
well, too, owing to a fishing job, will not find
tbe sand before tbe middle of next week.
Barnsdall & CVs Zoigenbeim No. 2 got a
second pay at 40 feet in, and tbe well is re
ported to-night as doing 15 barrels an hour.
The Harbusb wells were agitated, which in
crease J No. 1 to 13 inches an hour, No. 2 to 23,
and No. 3 to 38 inches an hour.
The Richmond Oil company, on the Simpson
farm, are down 500 feet with So. 3, and will
start No. 4 in a day or so. Bryant A Queene
are SDuaaing on tne noisnouse du-acre tot.
The Young well is considerably off to-night.
Wildcatlng in Clarion County.
CLARION A. Clarion syndicate and J. M.
Guffey will start a well next week on the
Karney farm, Pine township. It is a wildcat
venture. Tho company have under lease 700
acres and intend drilling several test wells.
Another home company is now leasing up a
large scope of territory in tbe vicinity of
Vorwinkel and will start a well in a few days
on the Joseph Bowstoph farm. Charles Leeper,
of the firm of Leeper 3c Co., is drilling another
test well on their property in Farmington
township. Mr. Leeper is huntine for an exten
sion of tbe Lucinda belt. At lair Lucinda, tbe
Lucinda Oil Company have last finished a two
barrel pumper. Hon. J. II. Wilson and Caotaln
Jones have a well in the sand on the Martin
farm a half mile south of tbe town of Clarion.
This is an important welland if goodwill
open the long-looked-for extension of the
Clarion pool. Captain Jones and Ketley Bros
in Mill Creek township, near tbe old Blyson
Run well, are drilling an old abandoned bole
deeper. They expect to drill the well to a
deptb of 2,500 feet unless it should be found
sooner. This company bas leased 2,000 acres of
territory in this vicinity. The Standard Oil
Comnanvare drilling a well nearNewmanville.
which is down 1,500 feet At Salem, Knight fc
Jf isber are drilling a well on tne anyaer iarm
and Halo Co. are drilling another one on the
Fry farm. Salisbury fc Putnam will soon com
plete a well on tbe Rhodes farm. Daily fc Mc
cracken are building No. 3 rig on tho Bender
farm. The North Penn Oil Company are drill
ing one well on the Shretler farm and Hon. J.
W. Lee fc Co. are building a rig on the Wrath.
A Half Dozen "Wells Soon Sue.
Mariasville Operations in this locality at
present are quite active. The wells on an
average prodnce about ten barrels, and by the
last of this week or the first of next tbere will
be five or six wells due. it. O. Laughner, on
bis own farm, has a well down 9U0 feet. Craw
ford & Sons, on the McKee, are drilling at 600
feet. McKee & Rnmeey are down 1,1)00 feet on
tbe same farm, and Salisbury & Co. are in the
neighborhood of 700 feet on the Dewcrlinc;.
Mandeville&Co. have reached a deptb of 700
feet on tbe Clover, while Crawford fc Sons are
building a rig on the McKee. So is the Rela
tive Oil Company on the E. M. Shlray farm.
Leasing and Drilling.
West Monterey Thomas Moore & Co.
have located a well on the J. W. Snyder farm,
two miles east of town. Tbe contract for the
rig and drilling tbe well bas been given to tbe
well-known firm of Davis fc Gntbrie. This
company bas abont 500 acres of leases, and if
oil is struck, it will cause a great many wells to
be drilled, as all their leases are small. Eicke,
bkidmorc & Co. will locate another well on the
Widow Harshaw farm within a few days, and
move their rig from No. 1, which was dry. The
Republican Syndicate still holds quite a lot of
territory on the west side of the river, on
which they are paying rental and which they
will certainly operate soon. They will no
doubt bring in some paying wells. Leases are
being picked np lirelr on the east side of
town on the strength of the Snyder welL
Testing New Territory.
McKcespoet A profitable oil well has been
brought In in Washington county, ir which W.
J. Denny and other McKeesporters are inter
ested. Tbe man who drilled the well will be
here in a few days, and will pnt down a well on
the Blair-Power farm, in Versailles township.
This farm extends into Westmoreland county,
and it is thought to be situated on tbe oil belt.
A company has been organized, and will
thoroughly test the territory in this vicinity.
Notes from Butler County.
Jkffebson Cestek The big-well at Jeffer
son Center to-night is making 90 barrels an
hour. The Jefferson Center Oil Company has
located No. 2 on the Conrumph, 600 feet north
of tbe gusher. Hardman has also located
another well on the Birely farm, about 400 feet
southeast from his producing well on the same
farm.
Zelienople Gibson fc Brown are in the
sand with their.No. 1, Allen, which is showing
for a 40-barrel welL There is considerable
activity in this locality, and in a few days a
number of wells will reach the sand.

EMPLOYES COKE OUT AHEAD.
Wages of Men Held Back by a Company
Must Be Paid.
Chester, October 9. Alderman Allen
H,bis evening found a judgment against the
Irving and Leiper Manufacturing Company
for $47 19 and costs, which was the amount
retained by the company from the wages of
five employes who quit work without giving
the week's notice required by the "rules of
tbe mill.
The plaintifty James McCabe, James
Bromley, JameCoheu and Hugh McDon
ougb, spinners, and Miles Brannan, night
watchman, were represented by Joseph H.
Hinkson, who claimed that unless the rule
required a week's notice, entered into the
contract when the men entered into the
company's service, the company was liable
for the amount of wages retained. The evi
dence showed that no such rule bad ever
been re"ad to them, although the rules were
posted in the mill. The Alderman took this
view also, and the company appealed from
his decision.

Three Schools of Practice.
Although the physicians of the Catarrh and
Dyspepsia Institute. S23 Penn avenue, are reg
ular graduates, they do not confine themselves
in their practice to any one school of medicine,
but nse from each of the three great schools
allopath, homeopath and eclectic that remedy
or treatment which long study and experience
has found to be the most efficient in curing
tbe diseases.of tbelr specialty and always pre
paring tbe medicine to suit the requirements
of each individual Case. They also use elec
tricity in some cases iwhlch are not within tbe
reach of medicine. This medical institution
was established in September. '88, for the ex
clnsive treatment of catarrh and dyspepsia,
hence it was named the Catarrh and Dyspepsia
Institute.
Its patronage has stead
ily increased, una although
nnmerons traveling doc
tors and so-called soeclal
Ists have since located in
Pittsburg,tbese physicians
stand pre-eminently ahead
as specialists In perma
nently curing catarrn ana
dyspepsia diseases so
common to people of this
climate and which in
most clses is tbe nnder-
llving cause of that most
fatal dlsease,consumption.
One of the best proofs of
the reputation this medl-
