ArUsia N.M. Nov. 14. Oil men who
have been inspecting the oil field south
of Artesla pronounce it on of great
promise. After visiting: the Brown
well leased by the Pecos Taller Oil
and Gas company of which Maj. Love-
joy of Houston Tex is the president
and owner of fa controllng interest
experts regard it as a remarkable well.
It has a flow of from 25 to 50 barrels
of oil a day at a depth of about 900
feet. This oil is mixed with 30 per-
cent water and comes from a six-inch
casing that was inserted in the eight-
inch casing. Between the two casings
at a depth of loo feet from the bottom
oi the well a packer was 'placed to
shut off the artesian- flow from the
six-Inch casing. Artesian water con-
tinues to flow between the casings.
Gas in large quantities accumulates
at the bottom or the six-inch casing
and at times escapes throwing the
water and oil several feet above the
lop of the derrick. The weight of the
0u feet of water greatly retards the
llow of oil and the company has or-
dered a pump to draw the oil from the
bottom oi the well. It is believed that
.is soon as all the water is removed the
a ell will hare a capacity of 509 barrels
'j I oil a day. The company is prepar-
ing for this immense quantity of oil
irJ has built a reservoir 300 leet east
of the well that is 100 feet square and
eight feet deep -with a capacity of 20-
oui barrels.
So sanguine of success are the com-
pany otiicials that they have com-
mmceu a wt 11 on the Martin farm
about half a mile from the Brown
.veil. They have started with a 12
rich hole and are prepared to go

Mole will be followed by a 10 inch
hole and that by an eight and a six
:n h hole.

as artesian water is encountered In
that vicinity at about 400 feet teas
aepth than at the Brown well. The
oil beft begins about seven miles
southeast of Artesia and extends In
a southwesterly direction tothe well
; the Seven Rivers Oil and Gas com-
pany. The belt can be distinctly
traced from the showings of oil in
-he various artesian wells along the
route.
The Dalcoath Mining company that
is incorporating for 31000000 is ex-
pected to commence drilling for oil as
boon as it is organized. It is financed
by Richard Ivey of Mexico City and
owns several valuable leases. Brice &
Bujac of Carlsbad are looking after
the company's business at this end of
the line.
Mr. Fisher formerly government ex-
pert in the geological survey lately
visited this section on a tour of in-
spection in the interest of Los Angeles
capitalists. Upon his report will de-
pend whether they will operate in this
field Mr. Fisher was very deeply in-
terested in the oil showing but non-
committal about what kind of a report
he would render.
William Belt who bought the Wil-
liams well east of Dayton Is taking a
deep interest in the oil. problem and
is expected to put an oil well down
on his farm. His artesian well flowed
oil accompanied by gas that was piped
to his house for domestic purposes.
Besides the above companies that are
expected to operate in this oil field.
there have been a large number of
individuals here representing various

yesterday in which both the plaintiff
and defendant were women and in
which the ' -ntroversy was over the
ownership of four white Plymouth
Rock Pullets.
Mrs. George Raine of Louisville a
village "ear here accused Mrs. iMina
.Tohnson. a neighbor with the theft of
the fowls. Mrs. Johnson demanded a
trial by a jury of women.
The testimony showed that both Mrs.
Johnson and Mrs. Raine raised white
Plymouth Rock chickens and that they
both allowed their fowls to run at large.

returned a verdict of not guilty basing
their decision on the presumption that
the poultry of two women living so
close together might easily get mixed.

DEVICE SAVES LIFE
Washington D. C. Xov. 14. Although his pulse virtually had stopped Wer-
ner L. Hoffman was drawn back from the brink of the grave by use of the pulmo-
tor and today physicians in a local hospital believe he will live.

record in China and the Philippines has been ill for some time because of fever
contracted in the Orient. Despondent he is said to have taken 15 grains of a viru-
lent poison. When rushed in an automobile to the hospital he apparently was

with apparent success. Physicians regard the case as remarkable.
McManigal Declares Presi-
dent of Ironworkers Had
Knowledge of Explosions.
SIGNALS ARRANGED
FOR MORE SECRECY
Indianapolis Ind. Nov. 14. Direct
charges that Frank M. Ryan president
of the International Association of
Bridge and Structural Iron Workers
had full knowledge of explosions and
that he even advised the dynamiters to
disguise themselves were made by Or-
tie E. McManigal in his confession at
the "dynamite conspiracy" trial today.
"I had blown up the Kansas City job
August 23 1910 and at Peoria on the
way back" McManigal testified "Ed-
ward Smythe business agent of the
Iron Workers' union showed me some
non-union jobs he wanted me to blow
up He said J. J. McNamara had agreed
I should do it. I told Smythe l had
bad luck at Kansas City where I lost
four quarts of nitroglycerin and three
alarm clocks. Smythe said a dynam-
iter known as the "New York Kid."
had been around Peoria and he
(Smythe) was suspicious of .him think-
ing he might be a spy of the National
Erectors' association.
Ryan Sounded Warning.
"When I returned to the Iron Work-
ers' headquarters in Indianapolis Mc-
Namara was not here. I saw president
Ryan. I told Ryan about the Kansas
City explosion and showed him a news-
paper account of it. Ryan said:
" T want you fellows to stop coming
p round this office so openly and you
don t change your appearance enough.
When any one gets a good look at you
he will be sure to Know you the next
time."
"I told him we were not reckless and
that no one knew what we were doing.
"Ryan said he did not know the
New York Kid.'"
McManisral SDOke of the time J. J.
McNamara was in Kansas City and
trip the government alleges McNam-
ara had a talk with W. Bert Brown
a local business agent about J. B. Mc-
Namara's being on the Pacific coast
preparatory to "cleaning iip" Los An-
geles. "Later when J. J. returned to In-
dianapolis" said McManigal. "he ar-
ranged for greater secrecy In my re-
porting to headquarters. At night he
was to put a light in the window sig-
nifying the coast was clear. If there
was no light I was to stay away."

old hdkssa ar Mwmrte later removing It
to Indianapolis. At one time when 80
quarts of the explosive were stored In
the vault of the Iron Workers' office
the witness said McNamara remarked:
"If this should explode there would
down-
not be enough people left in
town Indianapolis to tell what hap-
pened." McManigal then returned to Peoria.
"I asked Smythe what he would do
if there was any trouble in Peoria on
account of the explosion" said Mc-
Manigal. "Smythe said he stood in
with the police and nothing would be
done."
Criticised By McNamara.
Mc Manigal testified he returned te
Indianapolis and procured 10 more
quarts of nitroglycerin making 3
quarts for the jobs at Peoria on Sept.
4 1910. He said he paid his expen-
ses out of S300 given him by McNa-
mara for the Kansas City job.
"On the night of the explosion
Smvthe said he was going to a thea-
ter and would keep his seat stubs so
he could prove an aiiDi saia atc-
ManigaL "When I returned to Inlianapolis
J I. McNamara complained because
I had caused only three explosions I
at Peoria and another internal ma-
chine failed to explode thus leaving a
clue. I told J. J. if he didn't like
the way I was doing Pd quit dynamit-
ing. I told him I felt like- quitting
anyway and go working for the Na-
tional Erectors' association. He re-
plied my life wouldn't be -worth any-
thing if I did."
On the way to the Iron Workers'
convention at Rochester N. Y. in
September. McManigal said he accom-
panied McNamara as far as Cleveland
taking 20 quarts of nitroglycerin for
Peter Smith at Cleveland.
1 The witness said McNamara spoke
of the success of the plan of blowing
up nonunion jobs saying the rail-
roads were beginning to be afraid to
handle nonunion iron and steel.

ligion Ettor replied:
"I am an early Christian."
"What is meant by that?"
"I mean I believe in Christianity as
Jesus Christ taught it himself."
"Did you ever read anything by
Abraham Lincoln?"
"Yes."
"Did anything of Lincoln's that you
read have anything to do with your
idea that labor should get the full pro-
duct of its toil?" x
"It did." said Ettor as he left the
witness stand which he had occupied
for two days.

New York Nov. 14. Harry Horowitz
otherwise known as ''Gyp the Blood"
the dandy of the four gunmen on trial
charged with murdering Herman Rosen-
thal at Charles Becker's bidding took
the witness stand today and swore that
the 'shots in frost of the hotel Metro-
pole were fired by Harry Yallon "Brid-
gie" Webber informers for the state
and a third-. jaaB. .mysteriously un-
named. He denied every incriminating state-
ment made by "Bald Jack" Rose and
said be and his companions did not even
hear of the murder until seven hours
after it had occurred.. They were with-
in a stone's throw of the scene whither
they had. gone at the stranger's invita-
tion he said and fled whoa they heard
the shots.
"Gyp" under the questioning of his
attorney told of being in Webber's po-
ker room with Rose Scheppe Yallon
Cirofici and a strange man whom he
did not know.
webtpr went out with the stranger
but the two returned in 15 minutes.
The stranger was a man about five feet
nine or ten inches tall of stocky build
and wore a slouch hat.
"Gyp" was not allowed to tell what
the granger said.
The four gunmen left the poker rooms
with the stranger "Gyp" said. "Dago"
Frank said he was going home and the
others including the stranger walked
to the hotel Cadillac at 43d street and
Brofld w&tt
"We stood there by the Cadillac" the
witness declared "aid the strange man
walked across 42d street. He approached
Rose Webber Yallon and Schepps who
were standing opposite the Metropole.
All five of them then walked over to-
ward the Metropole Webber and Yallon
first.

"Those three Harry Yallon Bridgie
Webber and the strange man."
"As soon as we saw them firing" con-
tinued "Gyp" "we ran for the subway.
A. train was just pulling in and we
boarded it without paving fare. We
rode to 145th street and Lenox avenue
and went to our flat."
Admits He Told Falsehood.
Cirofici ("Dago Frank") was then at
the flat the witness said.
The witness denied that Bose had
ever asked him and his companions to
murder Rosenthal. Rose's motive in
seeking' them he said was to assure
them that he had no part in the "fram-
ing up" of "Big Jack" Zelig.
On cross examination "Gyp" admit-
ted that he had been convicted five
times for larceny offences and had
served several terms in penal institu-

A. N. Brown Says Take Up

RAILWAY MEN ARE
. LUNCHEON GUESTS
"If rates are not adjusted to reach
the territory which belongs to you or
that you think belongs to you the call-
ing of the railroads' attention to it will
give It the fullest consideration. We
are not afraid of the interstate com-
merce commission the Arizona or New
Mexico railroad commission but you
can accomplish more by taking It up
directj with us instead of taking it to
the commissions. "We feel better about
it. The railroads wish to do all they
can for you and it is needless to say-
that the J51 Paso and Southwestern is
in narmony with those things."
This was the declaration of A. N.
Brown before the business men of Bl
Paso today in discussing rates. Mr.
Brown is traffic manager of the El
Fase and Southwestern railroad.

A traffic luncheon opened the win-
ter chamber of commerce luncheon
meetings at the Sheldon Thursday.
Traffic representatives of a majority
of the southwestern railroads were
here Thursday to attend the rate con-
ference and were guests of honor at
the opening luncheon which was at-
tended by 150 business and professional
men. '
Walter S. Clayton president of the
chamber acted as chairman and intro-
duced the three speakers who talked
following the luncheon. "V. R. Stiles
commanderinchief of the Keynote Trade
excursion to Arizona andjfew Mexico
spoke first and told of t-ne good that
had been done by the trade excursion
of 1913.
"Do these trade trips pay? he asked.
He then proceeded to answer the ques-
tion in the affirmative by saying that
to get acquainted was half the battle
and that such a trip as the last one
gives the business men a better chance
than they could otherwise have to meet
.the trade. He said that the country
clube of Douglas Bisbee and El Paso
were responsible for one-half of the
trade acquaintanceship In the territory
visited by the trade excursion and that
the territory visited is El Paso terri-
tory because of these acquaintances.

"If all the cities should get the get
