O1x Crry, June 9.—The excitement througbout the oil region does not abate in the slightest. The people did not realizo at first that they had entered upon another era of thourand.- barrel wells. Three in Cherry Groye township, Warren county, which are now flowing, namely, the Union Oil company's well, known as ‘'646," ““The Great Unknown,” ‘‘The Great Mystery” and other appropriate names, and Captain Murphy's well, from a half to three-quarters of a mile beyond it to the northeast, and Oadwallader’s No, 1, about five hun- dred feet north of it—these three, by actual gauge, are known to be yield- ing four thousand barrels of petro- leum per diem. The ‘‘Mystery” itself, or, to speak more properly, Ze Union Oil company’s well, is still pro- ducing about 800 barrels daily, although it has been flowing steadily since the 16th of last month, There must bv an almost inexhausti- ble reservoir of oil deep below the sur- face of the ground to pour forth such a flood, particularly with two othera which help to drain the same deposit. This well is drilled but a short dis- tance into the sand rock, and man think that if the owners would driil deeper still greater results would be produced. But it is to the interest of the owners that the flow should not increase at present. In addition to the original price paid for the well, the present owners agreed to pay the origwnal proprietors §26 for each bar- rel of oil above 200 barrels, the well should produce on June 30, If the well on that day flowed 800 barrels, the original owners would receive an additional 20,000 from the purchas. ing eompany. From this it may be inferred that until the close of the ISDAY MORNING, JUNE 14, 1882 which was commenced before 646 commenced to flow. F’HE NEW BRIDGE.

To avoid this orders were issued to set fire to the scattered oil, and ere long the derrick, engine-house and all traces of the oil which had been scat- tered about were licked up by the flames, Then the story about the gas explosion was circulated, It seems to be a generally eonceded fact among oil men that when there is much gas there is little oil, and so, a8 the story circulated and was lpruri by the newspapers, the general ver. dict was rendered, ‘‘The Murphy well isn't good for anything.” But Cap- tain filurnhy knew better, and as the price of oil stidened a little he sold short, and when 646, and later Mur- phy, broke the market he covered his shorts and reaped a rich harvest.
