Ctsn-Ur. From an Interview with a
man who is in business at Casb-l'p, we
learn tbat the McLsunliti well, tha original
big well, bas been torpedoed, and la doint
six hundred barrel per day. The Emory
well I doing about flv hundred; tbe Fisher
well, about nine barrels; ona of the Brown
wells is producing nine, and the other three
batrela daily; tbe Croust well nine barreln.
Tb Brouson well was to hav been ehiim-
bered yesterday. There are over on hun

are being built as last aa ineu can b had lo

that tha territory abont Tionesta will yet

tbe reason tbat tb walls about bere have
