Chicago, April 16. Chauncey Depew,
accompanied by Cornelius Vanderbilt, H.
McK. Twombley, E. V. B. Kossiter and
President Ledyard, of the Michigan Central,
arrived in Chicago tbiafterncou on o spe
cial train and drove at once to tbe Audi
torium Hotel.
"We shall leave to-night for the "West,"
Elid Mr. Depew, "going as far as Denver
via Omaha. We shall visit Leadrille and
return via Kansas 'City merely a tonr oi
observation, that is all. We shall complete
it nod be back in New York one week from
next Saturday night"
Concerning his arrest in connection with
the tunnel accident on the New Haven road
in New York City, Mr. Depew said: "The
case will be usetui in this nay: It will set
tle whether a director of an inter-State road
can be convicted for disobeying the laws of
s State through which the road runs while
he obeys the lavs of another.
Hard to Obey Two Masters.
"For instance, the law of New Haven de
clares that a certain kind of heater shall be
used. In New York the law says that roads
of 0 miles in length shall not use that
kind. Bather hard tu obey both. It is the
same as if iour of the eight States through
which the road tuns should compel one
kind of heater to be used and the other four
make it a misdemeanor to use it. A di
rector on such a road would have to be in
prison and out of it all the time unless he
were cat in pieces."
Referring to his reported jocular remarks
about the accident, Mr. Depew said : "It
is a mistake to think I made them with
reference to the victims. Despite a great
feeling that is growing to the contrary, a
railroad manager does not liEe an accident,
and he is as sensitive as anybody over the
Mifferincs of the wounded. To judge from
what iomo people say, one wonld think I like
nothing so much as an accident. How foolish 1
We never have an accident of importance on
the New York Central HailroiJ that does not
cost us SoOO.000. In the first vlace. there Is the
destruction of property, then tbe damages pay
able to the injured, then,"' Mr. Depew sighed,
"the checks paid to tbe many suffering from
f hocks. A railroad .shock is the most peculiar
mjaiy imaginable.
Cured by a Generous Check.
"In a recent accident a man in a Wagner car
was asked if he bad been Injured. 'No,' he
replied, "and a peculiar thing abont it is that
of four dozen eggs I had m a kjasket beside me,
cot one was cracked.' A little later ainntual
friend called anu said the man had received a
shock in tbe accident that prevented his col
lecting his tboucnt? or sleeping. I related the
egg incident, but that did not matter. He
pare certificates trom two prominent New
York plnslcians, statinc the truth of his claim.
I gave him a check for J7.EO0L Tbe man
crumbled because it was not enough to yield
him a life income. lint he took the check,
vent South, returned in three weeks and re
sumed business, and has not had a sick day
since. Queer what a panacea a check often
proves."
INDEPENDENTS ARE MUM.

A prominent member, add one of the
leaders of the Producers' Protective Associ

Dispatch scout, but very little informa

they were moving along quietly, increasing

A Greene County Well.
Greexe County It was rumored in olj
circles that W. L. Mellon had struck a 150-bar-rel
well in Greene countr. near the West Vir
ginia line, which was a wildcat pure and simple.
Tbe oil was said to have been found in tbe "Bis
Injun" sand, and tor a time the report created
considerable nneasiness among tbe producers,
owing to the tendency to bear the market. Sir.
Mellon was interviewed upon his new find, and
disclaims all knowledge of his reperted good
lack. He said to begin with, he was not drilling
a well at all in Greene county, bat bad been
trying to cctaweil down for the last three
years in West Virginia, near tbe Greene county
line. He further stated he had no information
that they lnd fonndoil in his well, and was in
clined to discredit the story.
Wildcat Wells In Clarion.

McKee A Co will finish a third eand well the
first of the coming week on the Campbell farm.
This is regarded as an Important well In this

Doing Better Than Expected.
McDonald The Royal Gas Company's No.
X Gauttus well has turned out better than was
at first expected. The President of the com
pany stated to a pipe line offljial that tbe new
venture during the first 14 hours made 36 inches
in a 250-barrel tank and was holding up at this
rate. The pine line people are laying a line to
tbe well and will make connections as soon as
possible. The best informed scouts, however,
claim that when tbe well settles to Its normal
condition, from 20 to 30 barrels will be its nalt.
