LIMA OIL PARALYZED
By the Action Decided Upon by the
All-Powerfnl Standard.
OTHER FIELDS TO FOLLOW SUIT
If the Policj of the Monopoly is Successfully
Carried Oat.
WILDWOOD FIST LOSING ITS LAUKELS
It is about time that the general situation
throughout the oil regions of Pennsylvania,
"West "Virginia and Ohio should be made
plain to the producer. The action of the
Standard Oil Company, in the Lima field,
has significant connection with the situation
here. The policy the Standard Oil Com
pany has adopted in Ohio plainly pro
claims that this absorbing monopoly
intends to reduce the price of Ohio crude to
its basis of 15 cents per barrel. The Stand
ard, so to speak, is the cock of the walk,
and producers are submitting to the inevita
ble. Business is stagnated, and the situa
tion throughout the field is becoming demor
alized. The many industries pertaining to
the oil business there are being crushed out,
and to one vrho had witnessed the busy
scenes of the Lima field a short time ago to
visit it now would appear to him as if a
cyclone had struck the field. A
prominent representative of one of
the leading oil tool manufactories
of the country saia to The Dispatch scout
that there were 100 set of drilling tools
lying at the different depots awaiting pur
chasers. Rising in his dignity, he informed
toe reporter that lumbermen, tankmen, and,
in fact, every other branch of trade was
retrograding. All orders for new work are
being countermanded, and the wells which
are now being drilled, when completed, will
end the business in Ohio.
The wails and howls of the producers out
side the Standard are heard on every hand.
While it is an indisputable fact that a few
of this element have made some money,
there are hundreds of others Who are worse
off than the dav they struck the Lima field.
The policy of the Standard Oil Company
inaugurated here in Ohio is but the forerun
ner of what the producers of the Pennsyl
vania fields may expect The smart alecks
of the independent element who have been
poking fun at the Standard for their unwise
policy in paying exorbitant prices for
production, corralling territory and
prominent producers. They will "yet find
out to their sorrow that the Standard will
even up on the Pennsylvania production
and pay the expenses of carrving the
20,000,000 of Lima crude. "When "this state
ot affairs reaches Pennsylvania, it will be
needless to predict the havoc and ruination
of many industries.
Fast Losing Its Laurels.
"Wiadwood Wildwood is apparently
losing its laurels. The Eingheieen well is
1,940 feet deep to-night, and unless there is
a change soon lor the better, southwest in
this locality will be draped in mourning.
The Marshall Oil Company and Harley
wells on the northeast ot same line gives no
promise ot an extension of the pool in this
direction. The well is 70 feet in the sand,
and as yet no indication or oil. The Craw
ford & Co. well, on the Jfancy Gibson farm,
was started to drill deeper yesterday, and
when the tools were run commenced flowing.
There is no particular importance attached
to this event as the agitation onlv threw out
the fluid in the hole. Tinker & Co.'s well
on the Scott farm will be in next week.
Forsl ic Greenlee brought in another well
to-day on the Kolshouse, which is showing
for a good producer.
Brush Ckeek The Brush Creek well
reported yesterday on the Pferater farm
was only a mvthical concoction of a genius.
The well was drilled to a. depth of 2,320
feet in search ol lower sands, ol which there
were none Jound. The well is being plugged
and operated in the Hundred-foot, and will
probably make a small well from this
horizon.
From Other Fields.
Mansfield The Patterson & Jones
well on the McCurdy farm, according to a
nine-hour gauge, to-dav produced at the
rate of 30 barrels an hour. The same com
pany are building two more rigs on the Mc
Curdy. Gaily Bros, are building one on
theFindley, and the Kanawha Oil Com
pany, on their 300-acre adjoining the Mc
Curdy, are getting readv to start two wells.
The reported 1,000 barrel strike of the Tay
lor Oil Company at Belmont is another boss
lie, and the well is only an average pro
ducer. Maknington Watson & Co., 2fo. 2,
Blackshir, is showing for a 100-barrel well.

RESOURCES OF THE FERTILE AND WON
DERFUL SHENANDOAH VALLEY.
The Gateway Between the North and South
Shenandoah the Center of Great Ac

sonrces Transportation Facilities Iron
Men Investing Capital There Oppor
tunities for AIL
Shenandoah, Va., October 21. In
these days of indiscriminate booming, when
there is being built an paper so many cities,
magnificent as the most gorgeous air castles
and almost as baseless, it behooves the in
vestor to study critically to the minutest
detail the claims of any town which may
attract his attention. And even when it is
found that the resources of a place have not
been exaggerated, it is necessary to see that
the scheme for their development is sound
and is backed by men of the highest ability
and integrity." Standing as an inter
mediary between the North and
the South, to answer the in
quiries of the one concerning the claims of
the other, I am ever conscious of the re
sponsibility of my position, and therefore
conduct my investigations with that search
ing scrutiny which one exercises in his per
sonal anairs.
It is gratifying to find places like Shenan
doah, where all the claims are verified by
tacts, and where the management is com
posed of men eminently fitted, in every
respect, for the discharge of the duties
which they have assumed. I have found
here a reality more attractive than the
picture which anticipation painted. Shen
andoah is very prosperous to-day, and there
aie grand successes so near in the future that
it requires no unusual perspicuity to dis
cern tnem. 'lacing as a basis of estimate
what has been accomplished in the past
few years, one soon perceives that it
requires only a continuance of the present
programme to achieve in a short period all
the things which the promoters of this town
have predicted. The whole Shenandoah
Valley is now advancing on a mighty wave
of prosperity which, for aught that mortals
can see to the contrary, will break only on
the ultimate shores of time. Shenandoah
stands prominent among tbe leaders in this
great movement, and every day increases
the confidence of her backers.
CAPITAL rOUEINO IN.
The highest evidence of the merits of this
place is contained in tbe fact that some of
the first financiers of. the country have in
vested here. Last May the Shenandoah
Land and Improvement Company was or
ganized with C. Powell Koland as Presi
dent. Mr. Poland is one of Virginia's
most progressive sons, and has associate'd
with him other men who command
the confidence of all. Prominent among
the large investors here are the following
well-known men: F. J. Kimball, Joseph
H. Sands and William G. McDowell, Pres
ident, General Manager and Treasurer, re
spectively, of the Norfolk and "Western
Bailroad; D. W.Flictwer, Superintendent,
and O. Howard Boyer, General Passenger
Agent, or tne snenandoan valley road;
John M. Bobinson, President of the Sea
board and Boanoke; George F. Tyler and
Clarence H. Clark, Philadelphia banners;
"W. J. Arkell, of Judge, and "William L.
Muller, ol New York, Governor Hill's law
partner.
This is a divisional point on the Shenan
doah Valley road, which was recently pur
chased by the Norfolk and Western. The
town stands between the Blue Bidge and
Massanuttoc Mountains, a short distance
from both, on the Shenandoah river, 1,100
leet above the sea. The climatic advantages
are those possessed by the entire val
ley. In the mountains on either side
there are vast treasures of mineral and
timber, and most of the crops common to
the State flourish in the fields between. But
the foundation of the town's future success
lies first, in her minerals, and, second, in
her timber. And these will reach their
highest value when they aie wrought to
gether right here.
AN IKON CENTER.
Iron was made at this nlace 60 vears aro
in primitive charcoal furnaces. A year ago
the "Gem" furnace, owned by the Shenan
doah Furnace Company, began operations.
Its product soon took rank among the lead
ing brands of the country. The capacity of
this furnace is 35,000 to.is a year. It makes
both foundry and mill grades. This iron is
strong, tough and fluid. High grade brown
hematite ores, mixed with Cripple creek
and Cranberry ores, are used. The first
two are from the company's mines. Among
those who use the iron'ot the "Gem" fur
nace are the following well-known houses:
The Baldwin Locomotive Works, of Phila
delphia; Henrv McShane & Co., of Balti
more, and the J. Painter & Sons Company
and Lockport Iron and Steel Company, of
Pittsburg. A foundry and machine shop is
operated in connection with the furnace.
Tms company employs, including the
men working in the mine's and quarries, 450
operatives and a capital of 5500,000. It
owns 34,000 acres of fine mineral lands. The
property on the west side of the river has
been thoroughly prospected and will be
developed next year, at which time a branch
road will be built into the Slassanutton.
On the lands of the furnace company there
are large quarries of limestone and fine
dimension stone, which can be worked at
small cost.
ENLABGING PLANTS.
The furnace company is now lavintr the
foundations for a rolling mill, which will be
second to none in the country. It will begin
operations on January 2S, employing 248
men and producing 1,500 tons of merchant
iron monthly. .Next year a second furnace
of large dimensions will be erected.
The President of the company, Mr. D.
L. Sylvester, was with the Allison Manu
facturing Company, of Philadelphia, for 24
years, and the Secretary aud Treasurer, Mr.
E, P. Botsford, recently filled the same
position with the Connellsville Coke Syndi
cate, of Pittsburg.
The railroad shops are located here. As
soon as the reorganization of the road is per
fected, which will be at the end of the year
new shops employing 275 men, a commodi
ous freight depot and passenger station will
be erected, nnd four miles ot additional
sidings will be laid.
The pay rolls of the furnace company and
the railroad shops now aggregate 530,000 a
month. This will be increased by the con
templated changes to S90.000.
OPPORTUNITIES FOR MANUFACTURE RS.
All the conditions necessary to the suc
cess of manufacturing obtain here. The
climate is mild, fuel and labor is cheap,
and there is an abundance of raw material
easily accessible. Besides the inexhausti
ble stores ot iron, there are large deposits of
manganese, copper, lead, asbestos, slate,
ochre and clay. There are also immense
tracts of land covered with the finest oak,
hickory, poplar, ash, maple, walnut, birch,
chestnut and pine. Thousands of dollars'
worth of timber is left to rot each year after
it has been stripped of the bark, which is
shipped to the tanneries. "What is needed
here is industries which will utilize all the
raw material without waste. Wagons, ag
ricultural implements, furniture, wood
gulp and leather could be manufactured
ere at the very lowest cost. In fact, all in
dustries in which wood and iron are the
principal materials would pay handsomely
here.
The land company offers great induce
ments to manufacturers, and is seconded bv
the municipal authorities. Taxes ou all
factories are remitted for five years. The
spot reserved by the land company for man
ufacturinc sites is an ideal one for the pur
pose. It is in a valley bidden from the re
mainder of the town. The railroad will
build sidetracks to tbe door of each factory.
In fact, this is a railroad town.
A SECOND BOANOKE.
The men who are building this town are
the same men who took hold of Boanoke
when it was a village of 400 people and
made it a city of 20,000 inhabitants within
a few years. Prominent among them are
the highest officials of the Norfolk and
Western Bailroad, the town-builder of the
South. They doubtless see promises of fair
returns on their inveatments, and others can
do no better than iollow their lead.
The land company is building a hotel,
which will cost 840,000, and will toon codaJ
THE '
struct a perfect 'system of water works. Over
57,000 have already been spent in improv
ing the streets, and tbe work is still being
carried on with unrelaxing energy.
KAILWAY FACILITIES.
A few miles to the south the Shenandoah
Valley road is crossed by the Chesapeake
and Ohio, and at Boanoke it connects with
the main line of the Norfolk and Western.
At Front Koyal connection is made with the
Bichmond and Danville. The Norfolk and
Western are now locating a line ot their
own from that place to Washington. At
Shenandoah Junction the Baltimore and
Ohio is crossed, and at Hagerstown, Md.,
the Cumberland Valley and Western Mary
land roads are tapped.
No one questions the resources of this sec
tion. What were theories a few years ago
are now indisputable facts. The searching
liht of investigation which has been turned
on tbe Shenandoah Valley has only discov
ered new treasures while seeking to prove
the existence of those to which claim was
already laid. The only question to be con
sidered is: Which is the most advantageous
point from which to garner this wealth?
This sketch of Shenandoah is a "counter
feit presentment" which does but scant jus
tice to the original.
With, an environment which offers so
many opportunities for tbe rapid acquisition
of wealth, and in which there is so much to
make life pleasant, it does not require the
vision of a prophet to perceive that the
future of this town will be marked by suc
cesses more gigantic than any of which these
people have dreamed. John L Green.

weights.

factory service than the Dr. Jaeger's

tensive assortment of Underwear applies
to our lines of Ladies' and Misses'
goods, as well as those for Boys' wear.

BLACK ALL-WOOL
GOODS!
Strange State of Affairs,
But an Absolute Cer
tainty, Nevertheless.
300 pieces we bought before the passage of
the bill have just been delivered. They
were bought for spot cash at less prices than
we ever bought the goods in our drygoods
history of 21 years, and we have bought
many large lots and extraordinary bargains,
and sold them to the people of these two
cities on such a SMALL PROFIT BASIS
as has built up this immense business and
Saved You Money when yon bought them.
This large and important offering and
sale of
300 PIECES
BlackSilk-Warp
Henriettas!
Commences this morning at 8 o'clock.
Eight qualities of 40-inch Black Silk
Warp Henriettas:
95c,
SI 00,
8140,
8115,
8175,
8125,
82 00.
The great feature is that these Silk-warp
Henriettas are made by one of the best EN
GLISH Manufacturers. England has al
ways surpassed France in the manufacture
of Black Silk-warp Henriettas something
that's not always conceded, and often not
known, but is another of the absolute cer
tainties, and can't be controverted.
If merchants find (as they will) in this 300
piece offering of Blarli Silk-warp Henriettas
goods at So to 25c a yard less than they can
buy them by the piece in wholesale stores,
they are welcome to come and buy them.
The goods are for sale, and will be sold, and
such SUPERB QUALITIES at PRICES
so much LESS THAN EVER SOLD, will
create a commotion at our Black Goods De

A Regular Walk-Over.
That's what we are hav
ing in our efforts this sea
son to convince the public
that in Gents' Furnishings
we lead, not only in the
quantity and variety of the
stock we show, but in
price also.
It is quite amusing to us
and we haven't a bit of
doubt that the general pub
lic share in our amusement
to notice that our would
be competitors every now
and again warn the people
not to be misled by news
paper statements of price.
They know as well as
we, and the public at large,
that newspaper statements
of price amount to nothing,
standing alone. What they
really fear, and with good
cause, is the force of the
regular knock-down argu
ments which a stock such
as ours carries with it, and
their make-believe solici
tude is mere dust kicking
to hide the facts.
Neither do we need to
hold the much-abused Mc
Kinley bill over your heads
as an inducement to buy.
The fact is the stock we are
now showing was bought
long before the McKinley
measure was passed, and
not in many years have we
been able to sell goods in
this departdent so low as
at present
The assortment in all

OUR
HOSIERY PRICES!
Almost everybody knows that the prices of Hosiery advanced very
considerably within a recent period. Everybody may not know that
there has been no stiffening of prices at these stores. This is equal to
saying we are underselling competitors, and that's exactly what we mean
to say. No use mincing words on a question of such importance to the
community.
If you want the biggest bargains in Hosiery ever offered in this
town, then come here at once and make your selection. The goods may
soon be all gone and the prices will go with them. We couldn't buy the
goods from the manufacturer to-day for less than they are selling over
the counter.

less be sufficiently convincing :

point with us this season.

believed that trade would
justify it, and so far, we are
