WILD OVER OIL
discoveries of oil, wells in
BEAUMONT, TEXAS.
Capacity of the Wells Greater Than
Any in the Conntry—Mr. G. E.
Dickinson of Savannah One of the
Orsn.nlr.ers of n Stock Company to
Develop OH Wells, Has Returned
From the Oil Fields—He Says Land
Is Selling at Fahnlons Prices—The
Industry Is a Great One.
Mr. Gardner E. Dldkinson, second vice
president of the Orleans-Beaumont Oil
arid Land Company of New Orleans, has
returned from Beaumont. Tex., where the
excitement of oil well discoveries is at
Its highest. The first wells were discov
ried in January. The Lucas gusher,
which spouts 70,000 barrels of oil daily,
wan opened Jan. 10. This discovery threw
the oil district into a fever of excitement
and well after well was sunk. At present
more than thirty wells are being bored.
Land has advanced 40 per cent, in the
past few- weeks, and is selling around the
Lucas gusher for $40,000 to $90,000 per
acre. Mr. Dickinson thinks the sale of
laV.d in the oil district will aggregate
$1,000,000 daily. He is one of the origi
nators of the Orleans-Beaumont Oil and
Land Company. He landed in. New or
leans In April looking after the exporta
tion of cotton. The oil discoveries was
all he heard. In company with Mr. E.
Perrin, a large cotton merchant and rail
road president of New Orleans, and Mr.
T. P. Thompson, an influential business
man of New Orleans, he went out to
Beaumont. While there, they were, so
favorably impressed that options were
secured on something like 300 acree of
oil land 111 800 yard's of the Luous gusher,
and lying on two large railroads. Mr.
Dickinson said upon returning to New
Orleans, the cotton merchants met and
a company was organized. With
exception possibly of one or
two firms, every cotton man
lr New Orleans Is a member of it. He
said that it is composed of the best met
in New Orleans. The president,Mr. A. Brit
tin is a prominent business man of New
Orleans, and has been foremost in every
worthy enterprise which was started
there. He is chairman of the Sinking
Fund Committee of New Orleans, is
chairman of council and a director in the
Union Bank, one of the largest banking
houses there. Mr. Wm. P. Eno, who is
third vice president, is owner of Fifth
Avenue Hotel, New York. Mr. S. P.
Walmsley is president of the New Orleans
I'otton Exchange, and a prominent cot
ton merchant. Mr. W. P. Richardson is a
prominent cotton factor. Mr. Richardson
N brother-in-law of Col. Beirne Gordon
of this city. Mr. C. A. Johnson of Co
lumbus, Miss., president of First State
Bank. Mr. Lawrence Fabacher, president
Jackson Brewing Company, the largest
establishment in the South. And other
business men- equally prominent. Mr.
Dickinson said that the company holds
its lands in fee simple. Before taking
hold of it the opinion of counsel from
both New Orleans and Beaumont was
obtained and that the titles are absolute
ly flawless. The company pledged itself
not to sell its individual stock below par,
and that the stock which is being dis
posed of is treasury stock, sold, lie said,
to raise funds to develop the wells.
Mr. Dickinson said, referring to oil dis
coveries:
"The center of the new Texas oil field
is about three miles south of Beaumont,
Jefferson county, Texas. The first gusher
was struck Jan. 10. 1901, and at once an
enormous stream of oil, the full size of
the 6-inch casing, spouted to a hight of
over 20u feet, being forced upward -by a
pressure of over ti.ooo pounds to the square
inch. The pressure was so great that It
was impossible to check the flow', which
continued for ten days before being
brought under control. The flow could
not then be measured, but it was con
servatively estimated at 25,000 barrels a
day.
When (the gusher was again opened it
filled a io.ooo barrel tank In less than
twelve hours, or at a rate of 70.000 barrels
per day." He said the greatest excitement
followed the first strike and active devel
opments were immediately begun on all
sides, with the result that eleven more
gush°rs have been struck in the vicinity,
with a capacity apparently as great as
the first well.
Mr. Dickinson said on first impression
it would seem that as the Beaumont oil
is chiefly a fuel oil, it would be of sec
ondary importance to a higher grade oil;
but when the relative demands for fuel
oil and refined oil are considered, it is
evident that a fuel oil, in the apparently
inexhaustible quantities in which it has
beer, found in the Beaumont field, is of
much more importance and value than an
illuminating oil in the comparatively lim
ited quantities that nature has provided
it. The demand for refined oil, he said,
is to a certain extent limited, and the
supply at the present time is approxi
mately equal to the demand, while the
demand for fuel oil has been met in only
one country, Russia, where the consump
tion of fuel oil amounts to more than
eight times the combined consumption of
alt the refined oils.
Referring to the excitement again, Mr.
lhekinson said that an old theater which
bad perhaps paid Its owners S3OO an
nually had been cut up Into offices for
oil and land promoters, and was now
yielding its owners over $3,000 a month.
Mr. Dickinson’s company engaged a
fmall floor space in the balcony at what
he considered a heavy rental. Before
leaving New Orleans he sub-rented a
space 3 feet by 4 for SSO a month. The
engines which force the drills In the
well* use oil as fuel. Kvery three Hnd a
half barrels of this oil Is equal to one
ion of coal. This Is selling on the
grounds for 60 cents a gallon. June 1 the
wells of this property will begin to be de
veloped.

"After having had Duffy’s Pure Malt
Whiskey recommended for various ail

STOPPED COURT SESSION'.
Carrie Rlclim-ds Mutle Court Room
Echo With Her Yell*.
Judge Norwood held his weekly criminal
session yesterday morning and dispensed
justice to the usual crowd of petty crim
inals that confronts him on these occa
sions. The budget was rather extensive
and some additions were sent out to join
the county c'hain-gang.
Among them was a hegro woman, Car
rie Richards. She was up before Judge
Norwood on a charge of larceny from the
person. Neal Sapp, a visitor at Carrie’s
place of residence, complained that she
had gone through his clothes and relieved
him of the custody of about S2O. As Neal
was not anxious to be relieved of this par
ticular responsibility, he made a howl that
resulted in the woman's arrest.
Yesterday the prosecuting witness sub
stantiated his c'harges to the satisfaction
of Judge Norwood and the defendant was
ordered to,stand up. preparatory to hav
ing sentence passed upon her. Judge
Norwood said she would have either to
pay SSO and costs into the registry of the
court or stay out on the gang, helping to
perfect the sanitary system of the county,
for the next twelve months.
Without moving from her tracks, Car
rie emitted a screech that could have
been heard for blocks. This she followed
with another and another, varying the
performance by wild laughter that caused
the hair of the spectators to stand on
end. More howls, more laughter and
more disturbance followed, and then
Judge Norwood directed that the woman
be removed from the court room.
She went and a crowd followed her, and
the shrieks and howls were kept up un
til the jail was reached and the woman
was put In a cell. Then, when she saw
that she no longer had a sympathetic au
dience. her outcries ceased with as much
suddenness as they had begun.
James Washington was sentenced to
two terms on the gang, aggregating
eighteen months. He was charged with
obtaining goods under false pretenses and
with downright theft and found guilty of
both offenses. J. C. Athen, a negro boy
who had lifted 75 cents from the till of
a Greek fruit dealer, was sentenced to
pay a fine of sls and costs or spend six
months on the chalngang.
Robert Woods was charged with stab
bing not in his own defense. He had
carved Alonzo Graham painfully and un
necessarily, Judge Norwood thought, and
for this offense he was sent to the gang
for half la year. Similar sentences were
assessed in other cases.
TAKEN FOR ST. LOUS' MAYOR.
lint St. Louis Ladles Declared P. J.
O'Connor a Handsomer Man.
P. J. O'Connor, Esq., recently elected
president of the Catholic Knights of
America, by the St. Gouts Convention,
was taken for the Mayor of St. Louis the
other day. A lady who has visited Sa
vannah but who Is now living in St.
Louis, was a member of the committee
to entertain the visiting ladies of the con
vention.
Mr. O'Connor was pointed out to her
at the Southern Hotel, and just at that
time a couple of St. Louis ladies walked
up to him and one of them said:
"Mr. Mayor, 1 must claim the honor of
shaking hands with you; my lit tie boy
wears your colors."
Mr. O'Connor was somewhat mystified,
but'straightening up and putting on his
best smile,replied that the honor was his.
Of course he realized that there had been
a mistake, but he did not know that he
had been taken for Mayor Wells of St.
Louis. When the ladles discovered their
error, one of them said: "X am sorry X
mistook you for our mayor, for since I
have seen him 1 owe you an apology;
you are certainly a far handsomer man."

which he will submit at the thirty-sec
ond annual meeting of that body, which

to the. Grand Lodge.
It shows 13 new lodges have been es
tablished since the last report, and that
there are now in the state 111 subordinate
lodges, the membership of which amounts
to 7,213. That the finances of the order
In Georgia are In an excellent condition,
too, is shown by the fact that these lodges
have on hand $62,489.98, while the Grand
Lodge has on hand $3,515.32.
During the year ending May 21, there
were 1.146 Initiations, as compared with

To Enjoy an Ocean Trip.
There is a strong tendency nowadays on
the part of experienced ocean travelers to
avoid the overcrowding and corresponding
inconveniences of record-breaking steam
ships, and to seek accommodations where
the voyage cai} be made in perfect tran
quility and freedom from all excitement.
The change is very noticeable this sea
son, and together with the attractions of
the great Glasgow Exhibition, Is giving
the Anchor Line more than usual promi
nence. It is considered the ideal line for
persons seeking the mpst lasting benefits
of the Ocean Cure and seems to be mak
ing a distinct following of its own. The
Anchor Line is one of the oldest in the
Atlantic passenger service. Its steam
ships are commodious and among the
staunchest afloat. The rule of the com
pany is to provide for the individual com
fort of each passenger, so that proper en
joyment of the voyage Is assured. The
low rates of the Anchor Line are another
great factor in its maintained popularity.

Hoy Who Threw Hi,u- Kggn Finetl by
Recorder Myrtck.
"Bub" Dixon, a negro boy from the
Westsl3e, was among the prisoners in
Police Court yesterday morning, and Re
corder Myrtck charged him $5 for the
privilege. "Bub” had a collection of ripe
hen fruit and started in to have some
fun by pelting a man who chanced to
pass his way. The citizen couldn’t see the
joke, and called On a i>atro!man to arrest
the boy with the bum eggs. Recorder
Myrtck was unable to appreciate the Joke
either, and “Bub’’ was forced to admit,
after the fine had been announced, that
there had been little fun in the gome
that he had selected to play.
The case against W. J. Britt was dis
missed for want of prosecution. Britt
was charged by his wife, a resident of
the Tenderloin district, with having curs
ed and assaulted her. For some reason
the woman failed to materialize and the
testimony of the arresting officer was not
sufficient to warrant a conviction of any
offense.
Richard Dryer, cblored, was sentenced
to serve thirty days on the chain-gang for
tiring a pistol in the Plant System yards.
He was also remanded for trial In the
City Court on a charge of carrying con
cealed weapons.
Willie Brown, a negro woman well
known on tile Eastside, was dis
missed on a I'harge of stealing a
watch and chain from a young
white man. The prosecutor charged that
he had been drinking and visited the wo
man's house at an early hour in the morn
ing. He forgot and left his gold watJh
and chain in the place and when he re
turned a few minutes later It could not
be found. The woman stoutly denied the
charge. The case was heard In private
and in dismissing the woman Recorder
Myrlok admonished her not to appear be
fore him again. She has served several
terms on charges of disorderly conduct.
