GEIKDIKGS OF THE LICENSE COURTS 'ETICIAI. TELEGRAM TO TBS DtSFATCH.1 Somerset, March 18. Quite a stir was caused in the County Commis.iouer's office to-day, when an expressman walked in with a package addressed to ''Sheriff Good, CO. D. J5Q." The packaje, which was from Alderman Bopp. of Allegheny, and contained two ropes for hanging the 2s icely boys, had heen first taken to the Sheriff, hut he refused to put up the 550. The Commissioners did some tall kicking in receiving and paying for the ropes, stat ing that they might not be needed. The STicelv cases have cost the county up ward of f9,0O0, and tnere is a great deal of growling among the taxpayers. As a result the Commissioners are exceedingly careful as to all Mils that might cause still further ob jections. This has led to the Commissioners giving notice to tne Sheriff that if he maintains a death-watch over the prisoners, they will not obligate themselves to see thst the bill is paid, and it Is expected the death-watch will be dis continued after to-day. Meanwhile the ropes hare not been paid for. bnt will likely be taken in. as their absence might make It very awk ward on the Commissioners at the proper time. The Clinc of a judgment in Greensburg acainst A. A. Nicely, father of the Hlcely boys, by A. H. Coffrotb. one of the attorneys, has caused a great deal of talk, and the question is often asked, what did the men do Tilth the money they took at the time of the murder? It is also asked what new move will be made in behalf of the condemned men, as judging from the movements of their counsel here something sensational is expected. A dispatch from McKeesport esport says: A. A. of the condemned T?icelv. of Lip-omer. father o: Nicely boys, in company with the wife of Joe Nicely, paid a mysterious visit to this city last evening and was closeted a greater part of the night at the Hotel White with a strange gentle man. Air. Nicely refused to be interviewed, stating that he had been summoned to Mc Keesport by an anonymous letter, the writer of whicu said be bad something of great import ance to reveal to him. Nicely and his daughter-in-law took an early train this morning for their homes and nothing definite is known of what transpired. It is believed there is another Bceme on foot to endeavor to stay the execution of the Nicelys. BAD FOE THE APPLICANTS. Judge Barker, of Cambria, Going Very Slow In Granting Licenses. TSrECIAI. TELIOEA5I TO THE DISPATCH.! Johnstown, March IK. The action of Judgo Barker in refuslne license to some of the oldest houses in the city, has caused a great deal of speculation as to what he will oo with" the large cumber of cases that have been held over. The Judge has secured photographs of many of bo buildings where licenses have been ap plied for, and, as In many cases, these were mere sheds erected after the flood, they were important in deciding against the applicants. There are a large number of applicants to-night on the narrow edge of despair, they being among the held-over cases. WENT HAD ON A TRAIN.

The Boulhwest line has cot been characterized to-day by any gushers, and there is no material change from The Dispatch's last report Neither the Kretzer nor the Kyle wells show any improvements, and it is questionable whether they will do so when drilled through the sand. From present indications there is more truth than poetry in Mr. Pr6ton's conclusions of this quarter of the field. The Forest Oil Company and Guffy & Qneene's Kretzer has declined from 30 barrels an hour to 25 barrels an hour, and the McGinnis well, on deeper drilling, has been increased to 200 barrels a day.

McDevitt fc Co. shot their No. 2 Guyton; Finegan t Co. shot their No. 2 Wallace, and Barnsdall A Co. ihot their No. 7 Kress, all of which were materially increased. The Bear Creek Oil Company are ten feet in the fourth sand on the McLlay farm with no showing of oil, but it bas considerable gas. In the same locality, on the Whitney property. Spang A Co. are drillinc at S55 feet. Greenlee & Forst are drilling their Ailston well to the second pay, and Miller A Co.. one mile and a half west of Glenshaw. have a well drilling at 1.600 feet. Kennedy fc Co.arb 15 feet in the sand on the P. fc W. lot with their No. 2, and have found some oil and considerable gas. W. P.

Griffith k Co. are 15 feet in the sand with their No. 7, Smith, and to-night the well is flowing 15 barrels an hour. Considerable Activity at Coraopolla. Cobaopolis Mechlin k Ca's well, drilled in Saturday in the Springer farm, is good for 40 barrels a day. Paltees Brothers have a rig up on the F.
