The reports from the Al'egheay county
oil field Saturday Tvcre few nnd far between.
About the only place from which anything
was expected was at Moon. There were
several wells known to he on top of the
sand. The Kanawha Oil Company's Ho. 2
on the Hood farm pot their pay and will
make a 45 or 50 barrel well.
Their Ifo. 5 on the Meeks.and Xo. 2 on the
Onttott will likely get the sand Wednesday.
Mellon got a 400-jioimd passer at the west
ern Onstott farm. His Xo. 2 on the Jieeks
is light. It i located 700 feet west of his
1'arry No. 1. His Xo. 4 on the Meelts
will settle down to GO or 73 barrels
a day. It is located ."00 feet west
of the Kanawha Oil Conipany's Xo. 1
on the same farm. The Forest Oil Com-
Jiany's well on the Rouser is good for 45
larrelsa day. The Orion Oil Company's
Xo. 2 on the'Doty farm made 250 barrels in
the 24 hours ending Saturday evening.
Dusty Gordon Sand.
McDonald The Chartiers Oil Com
pany's well on the Jules Charlicr lot waJ
reported to be through the sand, and
dry Saturday afternoon. There was no
change in the other wells. The National
Transit Company is prepared to handle all
the crude brought up. It lias completed a
pump station on the Sturgeon farm between
willow Grove and McDonald, and Foreman
Ilcetoa ha just finished laying a four-inch J
gravity, and a three-inch discharge line.
There "are half a dozen wells, in this field
which should get their pay this week.
Showing Some Oil
MoCuisriY "W. L. Mellon's Xo. 4, on the
Palmer, was drilling in the Sand Saturday
night and showing oil. His .lane Itiddle
Xo. 1 will be in this week. GufTey &

Interest at several points in this county
has been somewhat revived for thepast two J
S'i luiiru kn a. -&-U12 ,1 lumi .ivs. n ;, uu
the "Webber farm, located between the
Thorn creek extension and the Sasconburg
field, has been the subject of discussion, and
the reports as to the status of the well have
been plentiful. The well at present is shut
down, ior want of water, on top of the sand,
and as yet they have neither gas nor oil.
The location of the well is important, nnd
for that rcasou has been closely watched.
The Kennedy well on the Shultz "flirm, near '
Zelienople, has nlso attracted attention far
and near.as it opensup a new field, or, more
properly speaking, an extension to the.
northeast of the Zelienople development. .
The first indication would warrant the be
lief that they have a 50-barrel pumper, al
though it was esterdav rated much higher.
Deeper drilling has not shown any improve-'
nient. lhis will, however, cause an ani
mated search for tho connectingfbelt be
tween the If anker farm and Zelienople fields.
The talk of the town Saturday was the
Gibson & Co. well on the JIcGinley farm,
one mile northwest of town. At 2G feet in
the 100-foot they got a bhowing of oil, and
the news soon spread to all quarters and
caused considerable excitement. Drilling
was continued, and at a depth of 50 feet in
the sand there has been no improvement.
The Hite well, drilled some time ago in the
tame locality, made about the same show
ing, but there was not sufficient oil to pay
to operate the well and it was abandoned.
Gibson & Co. will go on down to the lower
sand, and if nothine is found they will plav
below the 100-foot and make a testtfrom that -j
itrata.

drilled to a depth of 2,700 feet, but no oil or
gas was discovered.

PAiarxusnuHG, V,r. YX, July 12. It is
reported here that the oil company in
which the Camdens, General Spilman and
others of this city are interested, struck a
15-barrel w ell of heavy oil yesterday not
far from Mason City. This is in a new
field the company has been prospecting,

Five Sailors Karrowly Escape
Being
Burned toy Savages.
Phippsburg, Mr., July 12. Captain;
Joseph Perry, of the barkentine, the
Hustlcrhasjnst arrived home from a long
sea voyage. The Hustler was launched in
Bath last Xovembtir and sailed for Phila
delphia light, thence for Seattle with a
cargo of iron pipe. "While going round the
horn the vessel was wrecked on a sunken
rock in Nassau Bay, .40 miles west of Deceit
Island. The crew left in the boats with
nothing but what they stood in and rowed
in, 90 miles distant, to a missionary station
called TJsuhcrvis, where were several En
glish missionaries and a station for the re
lief of shipwrecked crews kept by the Ar
gentine liepnblic, which also sends its
prisoners there.
The Captain savs that five of the men who
started across the country from Sandy
Point, bound for the Missionary station,
were captured by savages, bound to trees
and that fires were built around them. One
of the men managed to get his hands free
and drawing a revolver shot one of the
Indians, which so frightened the rest of
them that they ran and the men escaped.
After having spent 25 days in this locality
thev left for Buenos Avres. thence thev
went to Southampton, England, from there.
to JNew loric and thence home to iUaine.

COnniSPOJIDENCE OP THE DISPATCH.!
Chicago, July 11. In their efforts to
keep their conductors straight, the two cor
porations by which the street railways of
Chicago are operated have organized what is
perhaps the largest and most efficient detec
tive force employed by any private concern in
this country. Their conductors rua far into
the hundreds. Their pay is. from ?2 to ?2 40
per day, of about 12 hours work. The re
ceipts of a single car frequently exceed ?100
per day on Sundays and holidays, and it is
no uncommon occurrence for a conductor to
turn in SCO as the result of a day's running
on an ordinary business day. The tempta
tion to appropriate the company's cash is
then very strong, and it is of the utmost
importance to the street railway managers
not only to obtain honest men for con
ductors, out also to keep them honest. De
vice after device of the automatic variety
had been tried and discarded, and finally the
large -clock-shaped register fastened Inside'
the car has been adopted as the best thing of
its kind. But experience of managers here
shows that even this can. be beaten, and that
at best it is but a partial safeguard against
theft.
To supply its deficiencies the street rail
way detective force has been called into ex
istence. It is made up of young men and
old men, middle-aged men and a fair sprink
ling of women.
Spotters Unknown to Each Other.
Its members are not permitted to know
each other. The time of their employment
is determined by their success in concealing
their identity from the conductors whom
they are employed to watch. When they
become known their usefulness is at an end.
Their business is to ride with the conductor
as a passenger, ' count the number of his
passengers, and to watch whether it corre
sponds with the number of fares which he
registers, and, if there is any difference,
whether it is to be attributed to carelessness
in failing to collect fares or to dishonesty,
to report them. It is quite interest
ing to observe the workings of this system. A
hundred spies are turned onto the line, each
of whom is supposed to take 15 to 20 trips
per day. Boarding the car at any given
point the spotter observes the number on
the register, then he counts the additional
passengers as they get on and watches if the
conductor collects the fare of each and
properly registers it At the end of the
trip, dodcrine into a saloon or some other
convenient place, he takes out of his pocket
a book in which he notes down in columns
the number of the car, the number of the
conductor, the state of the register on
entering the car, the number of
passengers from that point to the
end of the trip, the state of the register at
the end of the trip, the number of police
men, firemen, employes and other dead
heads, and if a fare is missed the spotter
notes the time and place and description of
the passenger missed.
How Thieves Are Caught.
If the conductor pockets a fare without
registering it, he notes all the attendant
circumstances, and notes whether in his
opinion it is a case of mistake or theft.
Nothing is supposed to escape his argus
-eye.
xne reports thus made up are mailed
daily to the manager and a clerk carefully
compares them with the record of the trip
as shownjby the conductor's report of the
same trip. If there is a discrepancy the
presumption is always in favor of the hon
esty of the conductor, but more spotters are
pu upon him, and, if he is dishonest, an
effort is made to have two or more witnesses
to a positive act of theft.
Then, and not until then, the conductor
is called into the office and confronted with
all the evidence of his crookedness and
given a chance to explain. If he is not
able to clear himself one of these things
happens: he is either dismissed, prosecuted
or retained for permanent service.
"Our usual plan," remarked a manager,
"is to dismiss a man. It is of no use to
prosecute him in the courts, because such
prosecutions stir up ill feeling and do no
practical good and besides they result in the
ruin of a man who in other employment
may-prove to be straight enough.
Sinners Given a Chance.
"Frequently when a man promises to re-
form n e help him, nnd there are many in
stances in which n man who has been caught
stealing and has been retained has turned
out to be a reliable and trusty man. He
knows that his weakness is known; that he
is being watched, and that the slightest
crookedness will result in his discharge, and
that keeps him straight."
The spotter in Chicago receives a salary
of from $14 to 520 per week, according to
his efficiency. "When discovered on one
line he is transferred to another section of
the city: when discovered by one conductor
he is put on work which will not bring him
into contact with that conductor. Easy as
his employment seems, it requires nerve
and courage, and sometimes involves him
in serious difficulty. A spotter who re
ported a Southside cable conductor once found
himself strung up to a lamppost by a
crowd of the conductor's unknown friends,
and there have been numerous instances in
which the fidelity of the spotter to his em
ployer has made him the victim of a mid
night assault.
