OIL GUSHER BROUGHT IN

Big Well Is in Pctrero Del Lane District and Flow Is Large. Tampico, Mex., Feb. 3.—The Mexican Eagle Pretroleum company of which Lord Cordray is the head, has jnst bought in another gusher in the Potrero Del Lane district. It flowed at the rate of 17.000 barrels per day until it was capped. It is situated about six miles from the 16.000 barrel gusher of the same company, which was capped a few days ago. These two wells are said to give the Eagle company a much larger oil supply than is required to supply the trade of Mexico after the crude product has been refined. ,
