Myers' Counsel Say They Will Trove That Their Client Was Not Hear the Scene WHEN HIS AUM WAS MURDERED. aiorlfrajes Made By the Missing' A. C. Jarrett Being InTestifjated By a Master in Equity. i. RECEIVER FOE AX EXPRESS COMPAXI Verdicts Rendered, Cases Fendisg, tn& New Ecits En tered ia the Courts. The trial of James Edward Myers for the murder of his aunt, Margaret Douglass, iu McKeesport, moved along rapidly yesterday, reaching belore 3 o'clock the point where John S. Holib addressed the jury on the position of the defense. The interest was maintained and the space hack of the rail was packed with standers, many of them women. Trank Cooley was the first witness. He testified that ou the night of the murder he was at the Douglass house and there saw two revolvers of different size?. One of thes'e revolvers was given to a man named Coon by a man named Vankirk. The revolver thus given was larger than the one that has been placed in evidence. The examination of this witness was then stopped. James A. McClure testified that Edward Myers told him about 5 o'clock ou the day of the killing, that when he went home with the first load of posts, his aunt came out ot the kitchen and fell dead as she walked into the yard. THE CARTRIDGES TITTED. Frank Packard was recalled and stated that he was at the Douglass house on the night of the murder. Vankirk had a re volver in his hands and was comparing the shell found by the witness with a cartridge of the pistol, and heard him say that the shell would fit the pistol. The pistol Van kirk had was of 32-caliber. TJpon cross examination the witness said there was no secrecy at the time the cartridges were com pared. A. B. Campbell, insurance agent of Mc Keesport, was one of three persons who bought 42 lots from Miss Douglass and Mr. Myers. Forty of these lots belonged to Myers. The property was worth from 1,500 to $2,000 per acre sold in lots. The partition was an am icable one as between the defendant and Miss Douglass, and was so stated by both. Hugh Lindsey, a 13-year-old boy, said he saw the defendant unloading some feed at the barn at Miss Douglass' house the after noon of the murder. The witness asked the defendant at that time what doctor he should get, and Myers told him to find Dr. Campbell or any other one whom he could secure. Mrs. Koyston testified that on the day of the murder she returned to McKeesport troni Pittsburg on the 12:03 train. She did not know what time she arrived at McKees port, but from there she rode in the wagon with Myers to her home about a quarter of a mile lrom the Douglass house, and got home at 2:20 o'clock. nxisa THE TIME. Mrs. Tyson, the mother of the former witness, testified that it was 1:40 o'clock when her daughter, Mrs. Koyston, came home. The wagon from which her daughter alighted, the witness stated, was driven in the direction of the Douglass house. Nellie liirklioldt was again called to the stand and examined as to the time she saw Myers on that afternoon, she said it was 1:30 o'clock by the timepiece at Kennedy's bouse. At that time Mjers was driving tiiward home. She spoke to hitu and he replied naturally and pleasantly. Attorney John S. Itobb opened the case for the defense. In his speech to the jury ho spoke of the absence of any direct testimony on the part of tiie prosecution and said that their case, if it was a case at all, was merely a cir cumstantial case; that no malio hart been t-hown, no premeditation to commit murder; that the ball did not strike a part of the body that was a vita! part, but almost miraculously took an upward course, which icsulted fatally. The testimony of Nellie Jones that she saw a man, whom she tool; for Mr. Myers, and Miss Uouclas on the hillside the dav of the murder, Mr. Knbb said lie would prove to be untrue, Mr. IJoub stated that he would prove that Mjers wa not about the Douslass place at the time or near it when the murder was com mitted. Kredeiick IVckman, a special officer of the 1'. i I II It It, testified that be took a trip lrom McKeesport to the Douglass bouse in a uagun. lue time taken was 50 minutes. The return trip was made in S3 minutes. The case was then continued until this morn ing, oing to the fact that the witnesses for the defense were not present. WAKTS A EECE1VEE APPOINTED To Get Monej Knnugh to Pay the Men and l'eed the Horses. A bill in equity was filed yesterday by IL, D. Gaskell against Mrs. Matilda Gerst and her husband. George Gerst. Gaskell alleges that in September. 1SS9. he went into partnership with Mrs. Gerst under the firm name of the Kej stone Express.

Kennedy yesterday hied his report as master in the case of Nicholas & F. J. Jlc Mahon against A. C. Jarrett. The suit was Liouhtto have canceled two mortgages for Sl.Guo and STOO, made to Jarrett on two lots in Mifflin township. Jarrett was secretary of the Southside Homestead Loan and Trust Com pany, and it was supposed that the mortgages were for the Loan and Trust Companv. The owners of the propem. however, never re ceived any money and the companv knew noth ing of the matter. They askeo, therefore, that the mortgages be canceled, as they were a cloud on their property. The master recommended a decree in favor of the plaintitls. He stated that Jarrett had disappeared and no testimony was offered ill his behalf, although Lis attorney was present at the hearings. To-Iaj Trial LUts.

Closing Oat Auction Sale Of diamonds, watches, jewelry, clocks, brozes, silver and silver plated ware, etc. Finding that I cannot give the necessary amount of attention to two stores, I have de cided to dispose or my Smitbfield street store and afterward give my entire attention to the store at 36 Fifth avenue. Both estab lishments have large and complete stocss of goods usually carried in first-class jewelry establishments. The consolidation of the two stocks would be too large for one store. In consequence I have decided to close out my stock at 533 Smitbfield street at auction, and have secured the services of Colonel J. M. Rutherford, of Philadelphia, as sales man. My stock is composed of over 575,000 worth of strictly first-class watches, dia monds, jewelry, silverware, clocks, bronzes, etc The stock must be closed out as quickly as possible. All goods are guaranteed. I am not retiring lrom business. Alter dis posing of my Smitbfield street store, I will be located at 36 Filth avenue. Sales begin Monday, Kovember24, at 10 A.

SIGNS OF DRAINAGE ON THE SOUTHWEST LINE OF THE WILD WOOD FIELD. Another Well Which Will Beach the Sand A Strike Certain at Mansfield Latest Reports From the Various Sections. rf FECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISrATCH.1 Wildwood, November 19. At last the southwest line of the AYildvrood field shows signs of drainage, The Governor Pattison, on the 30-acre Kolsehouse, has declined to 88 barrels an hour. The same company's No. 2 will reach the sand some time to-night The Zigenhein is reported as doing 75 br rels an hour, while there is a noticeable falling off at the other wells in this locality. The Smith Farm Oil Company's No. 4, Smith farm, at six feet in the sand, came in a big passer, which is considered the largest in the field. Byrne 4 Co.'s No. 4. on the Simp son, is making 750 barrels a day, which it a surprise to the producors in this field. Guffy & Smith's wildcat venture, two miles northeast ot Sharpsburg, is reported through the bowlder, and it will not be long before the result of the venture will be known. This is an important well. The runs of the Wildwood wells the past three weeks have averaged 11,500 barrels,according to pipe line reports. Bridqkville The Forest Oil Company's last venture in the Bridgeville field is holding up good, and has the effect of stimulating some new work. To-day John McKeown leased the Billingsley Morgan farm, one-half mile south west lrom developments, at 575 an acre and one-eighth royalty. Mr. McKeown has located two wells and will begin operations at once. Mansfield The Melton s uo. weu located on the Scott farm tapoed the fifth sand at 9:30 o'clock last night. Tho well made one or two sprajs, and later, when the tools were run, made one flow. The well is just ou top the sand and Mint down until tankace is put up. There is no question but what it will make a well in its present condition, with the chances favor able for a trood well with deeper drilling. It now looks as if there was from one-half to three-quarters of a mile of territory on an east and west line opened up. St. Mary's But little knowledge has been gained about the sand from which the St. Mary's well is producing. The owner claims that the well is still being drilled deeper, but ono of the drillers who worked on the well informed the reporter that over a week ago they had drilled the length of the cable, and he was certain that the old one had not been replaced by a new one. From this story it would appear that the reports of the well being drilled deep is only a bluff. The well is producing 25 barrels a day, and the same companv have located another well 500 feet southwest from the producer. Belmont The production ot the Belmont and Eureka pools, like other members of the southwest family, is showing a decided decline. The biggest well in the Belmont pool is the Stewart, which is doing from 175 to 190 barrels Acicerlev & Samuel's No. L Rufus Green, is dne to-night, while their J. B. Green S0-acre No. 1 has been delayed by a fishing job, but will get the sand some time next week. They have started drilling a well on the Hays farm, and have a rig completed on the Junius Greenwood property. Parkersbnrc parties have just completed a drv hole near Vancluse station, on the Virginia side. LOGO feet in advance of the Belmont belt, as indicated by the Stewart well. Between this duster and the Stewart producer, about mid way, the Story Oil Company have within the past few days finished a well which, with a good torpedo, may make a small producer. This venture, together with the Vancluse dry hole, beyond doubt cuts off the extension of the Belmont belt up tho river, and also indi cates that the St, Mary's well is not producing from the Belmont sand, and if it is it shows a distinct pool and no connection with Belmont. Butler Guckert & Co.'s Davidson well at Callery has found 14 feet of good sand and is still pushing away in good digging. Mr. Guckert thinks the well is good for 50 barrels a day. Their No. 5, Humphrey, near Petersvilln, will most likely reach the third pay to-night. The following statistics show the highest, lowest and average prices of crude petroleum lor tue past lour years Highest.

Since the price lias been advanced to S3 85 at the wells a new era has dawned upon the industry, which hitherto at the old price, $3.65, was nip and tuck for the producer to make ends meet. The indispensable staple is in good demand, and in reality should bring !5 a barrel. Operations are meager, and the production of the new wells about keeps pace with the decline ot the old one. The principal seat of operations is in the first district, and of a recent date some fair ells have been obtained. Following is a statement of the old pipeline for October : Barrels. Runs in the old district 4.965 Runs in the first district No. 1 672 Runs in the first district No. 2 629 Total e,267 SHIPMENTS. Barrels.

This shows a decrease in stocks of 3,919 barrels. H. McC. Stop that constant hacking by removing the irritation in the throat and subdning any inflammation that may exist there by using Dr. D.
