There Is a Marked Increase in Oil
Work lor (he Month of July.
THE XEW TKODUCTIOX COMES UP.
The Buckeye Field Also Comes to the Front
" IVithrientyofOiL
QUIET IX THE FIELDS TESTERMT
The -work for the past month in the oil
field- show an'increase all around. In new
production there is an increnso.of 1.2S0 bar
rels and an increase of 30 completed wells
ov or the number reported for June. Besides
this the bearish side of the market
5 strengthened by a decrease in the
number of dry holes. There is also an addi
tion of 13 drilling wells, but a decrease of 02
l ig. This is largely due to the opening of
the McDonald field, where rigs -n ere thrown
up rapidly during the latter part of June.
Notwithstanding all the drilling that is now
being done the nv erase production of
Julv wells is 01113- lty4 barrels which in
June va only ITSq, In the Southwest dis
trict there are 43 more new well being
drilled now than in June, but a decrease in
rics. There is a decrease in drilling
wells in Bradford, Allegany, Venango,
Clarion, Butler and Armstrong, and an m
ciease of only three in tho middle fields.
Altogether, the outlook for better prices in
the Pennsylvania districts i-, not encourae
ing, l udt. .rig from the present repot t. The
production is increasing, al-o activity, in
the fields, and as long as the situation remain-
as it doc- at pre-ent there arc few
producer who hope to get a better pneo for
their product. In the Ohio fields theio
lias been an increase of only one
dry hole, while the new production
was increased to the extent of 1,791 barrel.
Tho average production ot w ells lor July was
j-, Imrrei-. which i- gicater than for any
preceding month of the ear. There were
-ix wells finished in Indi.ma during the
month, with a total production of 253 barrels.

PITTSBURG DISPATCH,
PASTOE AND PEOPLE;
The Orthodoxy of the United States
Even More Pronounced
THAK THAT OP GREAT BRITAIN.
Some of the Timely Topics to Be Discussed
in Our City Pulpits.
GLEAXIXGS FROJI CHURCH FIELDS
The meeting of the International Council
of Congregational Churches recently held
in London lias developed the fact that
American Congregationalists are decidedly
more orthodox than those of Great Britain.
It is one of the anomalies of religious faith
that in free America the denominations are
less liberal and tolerant than those of the
Old AVorld from ivhich they sprang. At
the fountain head of Presbyteriauism,
namely, the old country of Scotland, the
chinches and ministers tolerate broader
views on the logical questions than would
be tolerated by the Presbyterians of Penn
sylvania. The leading Congregational min
isters of England, such men as Dr. Dale, of
Birmingham, and Dr. Parker, of London,
would not pass in a council of Boston or
Chicago Congregational ministers ns ortho
dox. Neither believes m eternal punish
ment as taught in the creeds, and jret both
are accepted in England as representatives
of orthodox Congregationalism. Dr. K.
W. Dale, of Birmingham, who stauds as
the foremost representative of the
English non-conformists, has preached and
written against the doctrine of eternal pun
ishment, and yet his orthodoxy is unques
tioned. A few years ago Mr. Dale delivered
a series of lectures to the Yale theological
students. His lectures marked an era in that
old school of the prophets. If he had been
an Audovcr professor, entertaining the same
views as he did, he would have received a
very frigid reception.
The lollowin from a letter to the
Christian Union illustrates the drift of theo
logical opinion in England: "In theological
opinion and outlook, it is evident that the
British brethren are far ahead of the Amer
ican. Indeed, it has struck the average
English Christian with genuine surprise
that the United States is (evidently to
them) the stronghold of conservative ortho
doxy of a type now passed by in Great
Britain. In broad and active philanthropy
the English Congregationalists are possibly
ahead of their American brethren. Certain
ly, here, the impatience with scholastic
theology andcreedism is greater than on our
side ot the Atlantic.

A TELFLE TOO TAEDT.
Judge Acheson Calls Down Some 'Plaintiffs
and itulos Against Them.
Jpdge Acheson, of the United States Cir
cuit Court, yesterday handed down an
opinion in the case of the Metropolitan
Kational Bank against Mary Ann Eodgers
and others. The suit is an old one, having
been entered in 1877. It was brought to
set aside as fraudulent a deed of convey
ance of ten acres of land in Armstrong
county made by William Kodgcrs and T. J.
Barchfield to Mary Ann Eodgers, wife of
William Eodgers.
Judge Acheson, in his opinion, com
mented on the delay of the plaintiffs in
prosecuting their case. They did not enter
the suit until almost six years had elapsed
and did not close their testimony until ten
years later. Kodgers and Burch'field were
manufacturers in sheet iron, and became
bankrupts in 1875. The assignees undoubt
edly knew the facts connected with Mrs.
Eodgers' title to tho property, and sold
their title to it to the, bank for 51,200. In
conolusion Judge Acheson held that the
plaintiffs were not entitled to anyrrelief,
and ordered the 'bill to be dismissed.

Some of the Charges Being Brought
Gut in tho Love Divorce Case.
A HARD FIGHT TOE THE CHILDREN.
JIany Witnesses Testify to a Weakness for
Intoxicants.
THE DEFENSE'S LNNIXGS COME TO-DAY
Common Pleas Court No. 3 presented a
lively sceno yesterday. The room was well
filled all day by those Interested in tho caso
of L. E. Love ncalnst his wife for the posses
sion of their three children.
The Court first allowed tho issuance of an
order on tho Western Union Telegraph Com
pany to produce a telegram of warning from
Mrs. Love to "Dell" Stevens. Tho question
of jurisdiction was raised by Judge Ken
nedy, to which Sir. Sullivan replied that
Judges Stowo and Collier had informed him
in open court that the new court had J uris
diction over the case.
L. E. Love, tho plaintiff, was tho first wit
ness called. Attorney Klchardson objected
to his testimony, claiming he was incompe
tent. The attorneys had quite a controversy
over tho admission of the testimony.
Several witnesses wero first called to testify
to Mr. Love's character. F. E. Cook said: "I
know Mr. and Mrs. Love. A day or two
after Mr. Love had posted her through the
newspapers, she came to my house and asked
me for whisky, claiming she was ill. I gave
her tho whisky, and she began talkingabout
her husband and the children, saying sho
Avished tho latter wero dead, as they looked
too much like their father."
Nellie Hority testified to having been em
ployed as a servant girl in the Love house
hold for five weeks in the months of June
and July of this year. Dell Stevens called
at the house once, and Mrs. Love said ho
was a detective. "During tho time J. was
there," sho said, "Mrs. Lovo purchased a
dozen bottles of beer. This wns drunk by
her, and she wanted us to get some more
from Mr. Arthur, but he refused to sell her
any more."
A QUART AT A TIME.
W. P. Bishop swore that ho had purchased
whisky on three, separate occasions for Mrs.
Love at her request, and that he purchased
