Small companies are being organized in various places, not 0 much to scll stock, but to raise sufficient moncy to test the territory. With the abundance of surface oil that exists in many localities, the chances are more than favorable that before the summer of 1888 ends in some well devel- oped sections a forest: of derricks may bo seen with the paraphanalia of portablé en- gines, pipe lines, stills, tubing and tanks. “UJust as certain as the sun shines,” said an intelligent Pennsylvanian yes territory of Wyoming is th house for this supply west of the Mis Topographically, the surface is identical, and the quality and gravity of the oil the same as that of the now famous Baku region in Russia. Two thousand tank cars are now duily winding over the steep grades of those mountains from Baku to Batoum, a distance of 500 miles. The steamers of the Baltic and Caspian_sca are run_oxclusively by this oil for fuel. Immense tank steamers are also being used for the transportation of crude oil. In fact, one-fifth of the petroleum supply of Europe is now furnished from that rogion where five years ago not a tenth was so supplied.”” Warming up with his subject, this gentleman con- tinued: “I have seen the Bakers oil, and’ the Wyo- ming oil in many localities will yield a larger per cent of illuminating oil and with a far better odor. “And more than all else, the diplomacy the Standard oil company 18 _on the war all Kurope as woll as in this country. complaints and grievances of the peopie ing the past decade are culminating in ascries of court and inter-state commerce decisions by which law and justice are being promul- gated. “The decision of the inter-state commerce committee two weeks ago in the case of icarge Rice against the railroad companies, by which the Standard must pay equal rates with all men, is a progression item in this in- dustry. It is quite absurd to assert that the Prospects oil of the Standard oil company shall or can be tmnbju)rmd 1,000 miles to its supply sta- tion at Omaha, and then 1,000 miles west to other supply stations to compete with tho simple process of refining oil at Omaha,Chey enne or Rawlins, or at tho wells, And, besides the fighting qualitics too of the Standar on tlic wane. Men cannot last foreves death of Stephen V, Florida a fow days since. the original plant of Rockafeller, Andrews & Flagler 1n 1871, The profits of ‘that_invest- ment will now foot up $12,000,000. He " also set up his relauive, ' H. M. Flagler, at_tho same time with $30,000 s his interest. He it is who is building . the 8,000,000 hotel at Ponce de Leon, Florida. They 'are becom- ing wearied and are more interested in the manipulations of their trust certificates at tho stock exchange, with occasionalrelaxa- tion in Florida, than the logitimato business of refining oil. And with the enormou expense attending all their operations, the can by no means to-day, everything else be- ing equal, compete with the economical treat ment of the orude oil of Wyoming by those who understand the business. There is population of 2,000,000 people to supply with. refined oil west of the Missouri river and tributary to the Wyoming fleld alone, and as sure as you live shrewd operators are going to get there.” ——— THE CARPENTERS. Several Interesting Addresses Before the Union Last Night. A very largely attended meeting -of the Omaha Carpenters’ Unipn No. 58 was held at Central hall last night, over thres hundred carpenters and a sprinkling of other me- chanics ‘being present. The meeting was called to ordor by William McGregor, presi- dent of the carpenters’ union, who stated the object of the meeting to be to'carry outjjthe provisions of its constitution relative to the mental improvement of the members of the craft. With this object in view the commit. tee ch had been charged with arranging this meeting had invited several promiuent: citizens to address the union on the relations of labor and its condition in this city. The president then introduced Mr. E. Rose- water one of "the - invited speak- ers. Mr. Roscwater's address covered the labor troubles that have dis- turbed all civilized countries in late years, tlre causes which make co-operation among workingmen a_necessity, the effects and in- cidentally the peculiar features .of trades- unionism with regard to placing all mechan- ics of each trade on an equal footing. The address-was listened to with close attention, Mayor Broatch . was then introduced and made some remarks in regard to his- own affiliation with the Knights of Labor, which he declared was not inspired by political am- bition; The mayor warmly endorsed the points brought out. by Mr. Rosewater and said be was strongly in favor of any lauda- ble effort to better their condition, as long as they conducted themselves in an orderly manner. Brother Reeves, one of the and most popular members the union, was called out and .made a very logical appeal for united action and in favor of maintaining the the nine hour work- ing day. The closing address was made by the president, Mr. McGregor, who has the happy faculty of hitting the nail on the head every time and using plain cerpenter’s English. A large portion of his address was devoted to an explanation of the aims, objects and prin- ciples of the union and the benetits which it confers upon its members, The meeting abjourned about 10:30, aff a vote of thanks to all the speakers. G satisfac expressed with the meeting, which was strictly devoted to industrial sub- jects, oldest of Much Excitement, Little Fire, All Farnam street was thrown into a furore of excitement yesterday afternoon about 5 o'clock by an alarm of fire, and as volumes of smoke were seen to arise apparently from the B. & M. headquarters, an immense crowd gathered in a remarkably short time. The whole fire department turned out, but upon ving on the scene it was found 'that the use of all this commotion was a slight blaze in a popcorn stand just west of the B. & M. headquarters, The cause of the fire was th explosion of a gasoline lamp. The damage will amount to about $15. The fire department was again called out oth and Pacific streets aout 6 :45 last The blaze proved to be in old summer kitchen which had caught fire from the stone pip ssing through it. The dam- age done was slight. 0. 2's Smashup.

That in- tersection is an eyesore to drivers in the fire department. Only a small space is left for the apparatus to get through, a big pile of stufl with two sickly lmlkin? red lanterns 1 being right in the middle of the street. Two trains of cable cars stood there last evening as the company dashed down, and the clang- ing bells and howling of a pack of worthless curs that are always in the vicinity scared the horses as a turn was made to avoid toe obstruction mentioned and the cart swung around and struck the sewer grating and a wooden crosswalk, snapping the right hind wheel off. It was a narrow escape for the members, shaking them up pretty well, Fireman MeBride being the only one in an way way hurt, he having his knee-cap v scraped. No blame weatever can be at- tached to the driver, as Jim Traynor is con- sidered one of the best in the service. MRS. BURGESS CAPTURED, After a Week She s Found and Reincarcerated Mrs, Burgess, the sneak thief and confi- dence woman who walked out of the ccntral station one night last week while the officers were napping, was recaptured last evening by Officer ‘Vanous. Whon the policeman stepped out of the White Front saloon on Farnam and Eleventh, his attention was first called to her by her suspicious actions. She darted into & neighboring cloth- Ing storoand be followed. He soon saw that she tallied with the description of Mrs. Burgess and she was_arrested and taken to the central station, where, this time, she was locked up in a cell. She has a broken arm, which, she says. was caused by the brutal manner in which she was flung” into the pa- trol wagon at her former arrest. She says her escape from the jail was effectod by means of the stairway, but that she had help from the outside or she could not have planned this method of ogress. She says also that at the timo she slipped out the police were all asloep. She has been in the city ever since her escape, S A Death of an Ex-Policeman. Daniel Shanahan, aged twenty-six years, died yesterday at his residence of pneumo- nia. Tho deceased served for a number of years on the police force, and at the time of his death was in the eniploy of the Missouri Pacific as a special.

On being given a hearing, however, the case was dismissed. Mrs, Haskins says that she is from Milwaukee, t her maiden name is Verplanck, and that the Verplancks are among the leading people of the state.
