Wheeling, November 18. A posse of
officers left Moundsville last night with six
tough prisoners from the penitentiary, whom
they are taking to Charleston to be used as
witnesses in several cases that are to come
up; also to testily against two young men,
Strother and "Warrick, to indict them for
wreckine a train.
About one year ago a train was wrecked
on the Shenandoah, in which one man was
Killed and another seriously injured. Younc
Frey, and two others, named Allen and
Fidlinger, were sent to the penitentiary two
years for the offense. Yesterday Frey made
a confession implicating Strother and War
rick, and he was taken to appear against
them. Frey says they made up a plot to
wreck an express rain and take what booty
they could from dead or living, then divide it.
A freight train cauiealonp; aua rather upset
their plans, but they broke a switch, threw it
open, and sidetracked the train, completely
wrecking it.
All of the men Implicated in the cold-blooded
aflalr are joudc men, about IS to 20. wnile
Strother and Warrick come from wealthy and
prominent families. These two latter are now
under indictment inrbreakinc into a depot on
the same road. Frey says they were a recu
larly organized Jesse James gang; that they
rooDea, stole and plundered. They killed tann
ers stock and dtis, and anything else that
came in their way. They acquired their ideas
from reading dime novels, and bad whisky
helped them alonz:
Warrick and btrotherdo not know of the
confession, and they and their attorneys will be
surprised when confronted with other mem
bers of the gang.

An Infirmary Inmate Drops Dead While
Complaining of Abuse.
ISrrCIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCIt.I
New-auk, Novembe- IS. Ella Woodbridge,
an inmate of the County Iufirmary, last night
dropped dead in her room. The circumstances
surrounding her death created such an impres
sion on the Coroner that he has ordered an in
vestigation. A post mortem was held by Drs. Smith and
Middleton, who pronounced it a case of heart
disease. A story told by the girl herself is the
puse assigned for an investigation. She had
been taken from the infirmary by a family and
then returned. She told parties at the in
firmary that she had been brutally treated bv
the members of the family, and was entering
intn details, when s-he tell back dead. The
officials think tbro is enough in the story to
-warrant investigation, notwithstanding the
usual convenient doctors' verdict of "heart dis
ease." LOST CONTROL OF A CAB.

LEGISLATIVE ACTION
AS A MEANS OF IMPROVING THE PETRO
LEUM SITUATION.
A Number or the Producers Aro Strongly In
Fatorof Such a Policy Tho Latest Ke
porU From the Various Fields.
The present unfavorable aspect of the pe
troleum industry, together with a discour
aging outlook for the future, naturally leads
the producer to call a halt and take a
philosophical view of the situation.
Among the means talked of to
ameliorate their condition is leg
islation. This scheme is being strongly
urged by the producers in Butler county and
the refrain is being caught ty their brethren in
other sections of the southwest, and ltis among
the possibilities that a general movement by
the producer throughout the oil domain in this
direction will be inaugurated, it Is hoped, with
the most tangible results. Just what the
nature or the legislation that will be asked for
has not as yet been given publicity or
the bill ot particulars formulated.
Whether it will partake of the character of the
Billingsly bill, or whether relief will be asked
for from a different standpoint will be known
later on. The producers are confident that
with a solid delegation trom the oil country
favoring their interests they would have but
little trouble in securing legislation that is
within the bounds of reason. The small pro.
ducer in every section is feeling the weight of
the present depression more than any other
element of the trade, while at tho same time
territory of light caliber cannot be operated at
present prices. The effect upon every branch of
industry pertaining to the oil business, and the
mercantile interests in general in these locali
ties, may be compared with two years ago, when
operations were suspenaea mrougn me organi
tiou of the P. P. A.
A prominent Bradford manufacturer of oil
well tools and machinery, 111 discussing the
situation, said to The Dispatch reporter to
day that the depreciation of the oil market is
equivalent to another shut down in the Brad
ford field for the very good reason that it is
impossible to produce oil in this small territory
at the present prices. He also informed the re
porter that frum the force of cirenmstances
the drill was being curtailed, and if matters
kept on the way they were heading he looked
for a total suspension of now work. The same
state of affairs exists in the Washington field.
An old-time operator, who has been Interested
here since the rise and fall of the field,
said to the reporter "that Washington oil could
not be produced at present prices, while at the
same time, to make matters worse here, the
fifth sand is showing drainage and the wells
are going down. The Washington field within
the last yodays baa declined about one-third
in production, and in some sections almost one
half. To illustrate this lactthe Buffalo Oil Com
pany three months ago had a daily production of
KJ0 barrels, while at present they are only
getting 80 barrels a day." The veteran
operator concluded his interview by saying in
a dramatic style. "Whither are we drifting? "
Wildwood The Zigenhein well is doing 75
barrels an hour to-day. and the Governor Pat
tison, by a personal gauge, is making an even
100 barrels an hour to-night. John Gallon-ay
mlormed the reporter to-night that the Kana
wha Oil Compauj's Hack well was good for 25
or SO barrels a day. On the southwest line, a
half a mile in advance from the Ricgheiser,
unknown parties are building a rig on tne Kyle
farm, hile Jennings fc Both, 1,500 feet still to
the south est of the Kyle location, have a rig
abont ready for the drill on the Peebles farm.
The Smith Farm Oil Company tapped the sand
in their No. 4, Smith, and when the reporter
" '"" ieu. iney were lour ieenn. Jhe well
is quite a gaser, and so far has made no show
of oil; their No. 5 will be due to-morrow.
Coraopolis The Auirusta Oil Comoanv
were in luck to-day. Thcv brought in their No.
2. Jolly, which is showing for the best well in
the old Coraopolis pool.
MANSFIELD The report that the Mellon
well, on the Scott farm, was in yesterday and
was likely to make a big well was only a mythi
cal concoction, which originated in the fertile
brains of Mike Murphy and Sam Gailey. It is
said that Captain Peter Grace was also a party
to the job. Tho well was measured up this
morning at 10 o'clock with a steel line and
found to be 2,175 feet deep. The well will have
to be drilled 45 feet deeper betore the same
level where tho oil was lound in the McCurdy
is reached. The McCurdy is doing 20 barrels
an hour to-night.
Craftox The Forest Oil Company's No. 5,
on the Aiken farm, is through the sand and
will make a five-barrel well; their No. 1, Clever,
is drilling in tho Gantz sand, with the hole full
of salt water. They are also starting a wildcat
well on the Ewing land located on Pinkerton
run, in South Fayette township, Allegheny
county.
The Jefferson Center Oil Company have
brought in their No. 2. in the Saxonburg field,
and it is reported as doing 100 barrels an hour.
There was a good deal of comment among
the producers to-day, regarding the action of
the Law and Order Society iu arresting pro
ducers for pumping their wells on Sunday, and
it is likely that a combination will be lormed
by them and the matter carried up to court.
Washington A stock company with S100,
000 capital has been formed to erect a refinery
on the White farm, near Taylorstown. Tho re
finery has been wisely located, owing to the
great amount of oil to be had In the immediate
vicinity, also tho excellent shipping iacilities
offeied by the Baltimore and Ohio road. The
company also propose to lay a pipe line across
the country to Charticrs. The names of tho
prime movers in the stock company are not yet
made public, but it is understood that many of
the mcmbeis of the concern are prominent oil
men of this place and Taylorstown. H. Ma

THE VALUE
Of Hood's Sarsaparilla as a remedy for catarrh
is daily becoming better Known, as people rec
ognize in its use the common-sense method of
treating this disease. Local applications can
do but little good. Catarrh Is constitutional in
character and therefore requires a constitu
tional remedy. Hood's Sarsaparilla attacks
the disease at its foundation by eliminating the
impurities in the blood which cause and feed it,
and by restoring the affected membrane to
healthy condition. A book containing full in
formation will be sent freo.to all who wish it.
Thought She Hid Consumption.
"My daughter has had catarrh for nine years.
She coughed and expectorated so much that
everyone thought she bad consumption. I tried
everything I heard of but gained no re
lief. I sent her to Florida in September for the
winter, and there her friends advised her to
nso Hood's Sarsaparilla. She wrote me that
she had taken three bottles and never felt so
good in her life." Mrs. McKnioht, 137 Will

counterfeit:
We are daily warned through the newspapers to look out for
counterfeit bills which are in circulation. These are most of them
cleverly executed, and are readily accepted by great numbers a3
genuine. Of course, the man who gets one of them is out that
much. But this is just as true of counterfeit clothing as it is of
counterfeit money. A counterfeit is something that looks like what
it is not. That's just how counterfeit clothing looks. Behind plate
glass, and, even to the touch, it appears all right. It's true nature
comes out in the wear. There's a heap of it in the market. Did
you ever get stuck on a suit If so, you will appreciate these re
marks. Not one man in a hundred is a judge of clothing, you say,
and this is true. How may you protect yourselves? Deal with a
reliable house, that has a name and reputation to sustain, a house
that is really more interested in giving you good value for the
money accepted than you are in getting it Deal nowhere where a
sliding scale of prices exists. Buy no auction or bankrupt stock
goods. Avoid clothing houses whose residence in the city is tem
porary, in the windows of which, when you go around a month or
two after to lay them out for the manner in which they have de
ceived you, you see this sign, "TO LET."
BUY OF QUSKY'S.
We're here to stay, here to serve you in a manner we know will
please you, for we expect and desire to see you again. It's to ouf
interest to use you aright, for the profit we expect to make out of
you in the future far exceeds what we can make in the single trans
action. Our whole stock, not only of Clothing, but of Furnish
ings, Hats and Shoes, has the genuine ring about it. Have you not
found it so ?
