PETROLEUM FIRE AT 3KAU3IONT Ton Pumping Rig Destroyed, with a Loss of About fo.ooo. New Orleans, Sept. 13. A special from Baumont, Tex., to The States says: Tl.e fire has destroj'ed ten pumping rigs and one 1,200 tarrei settling tank. It covers an area of about an acre in the northwest coraer of the Keith-Ward tract. In which there are about twenty-five wells. One of these is the gusher, which is on fire. A field force of 300 men under J. C. Cullinan has been organized to fight the fire. The present damage is estimated at $50.000. The rest of the field is not considered In Jeopardy. At daylight yesterday morning the fire had burned itself out and last night there were only four wells and two tanks burning. One of the wells was a gusher and there will be much trouble experienced in extinguishing It. The smaller wells can be easily han- . died, as the fire is principally fed by gas. The oil Is being drawn from the tanks as rapidly as possible. The fire was started by the carelessness of a Workmen, whose name has not yet been ascertained. He went into a tank which was partly filled with oil with a lighted lantern, and there was an explosion of gas which ignited the cil. The man escaped, though he Is said to have been badly burned. The Wood gusher had been left open and it was ignited within a few minutes. Before an alarm could be given to control the burning tank the flame leaped high in the air, the derrick caught fire and so did the oil which was standing around the well. The Ignition was comparatively slow. but the fire once started spread rapid ly Over the Keith-Ward tract The loss may reach $100,000.

Philadelphia, Sept. 13. President Mitchell, of the United Mine Work ers, came here last night and was pre sented with about $3.000 by the or ganized workmen of this city for the benefit of the striking mine workers. The money was gathered through house to house collections, jars placed on street corners and other places and proceeds from picnics. The miners' chief was given an enthusiastic re ception by the great crowd within the building where the presentation was made. After the relief money had been formally presented to him Mitchell made a short address. He thanked the donors on behalf of the "great army of men, women and children who are making a great strug gle for living wages." He said the mine workers fight was a fight for trade unionism, without which the workmen of the country could not get fair treatment from the employers The spokesman of the operators, he continued, contended they are making a fight for Individual liberty and for a principle, but Mitchell insisted that the operators are battling to give wages satisfactory only to the coal trust The coal operators, he said, had char acterized the miners union as a ir responsible and lawless body." He ad mitted there had been some lawless ness, "but of the six persons killed In the coal fields since the strike was started, three were murdered by the coal and Iron policemen." No one deplored lawlessness more than he did even though committed by his own brother. He characterized most of the special policemen as "criminals and thugs." Referring to "compulsory" arbitra tion he said the miners are willing to arbitrate, but they are not willing to have "compulsory" arbitration. They are not willing to enslave the workmen of Pennsylvania in order to get out of their own difficulty. Church Congratulate Roosevelt. Montreal. SeDt 13.

Against the Good Name of a Clergyman Who Has Fought the Saloons. WOMAN TAKES PART IN THE PLOT Men Said To Be Involved and Two Names Known Clarkshill Wins the Case. Vtncennes, Ind., Sept. 12. The fact has become public that a plot was laid to blackmail Rev. William Oeschger, of this city, and only the fact that Jessie Hawthorne notified the police, prevented It from being carried out. Kev. Oeschger is pastor of the Christian church in this city and one of the most prominent ministers in southern Indiana. According to the plan laid, a young woman was to go to the home of Oeschger, disguised as a book agent, and obtain an entrance. As she entered the door she was to signal a male friend who was on the outside, and this friend, in a few minutes, was to rush into the home and accuse the minister of associating with immoral women. Names of Two Men Known. The girl Avas to assist in carrying out the plan and to appear against Uev. Oeschger at a trial. For doing this the two were to be paid $50. The girl in the case was an inmate of a notorious house. The police have the names of two men who, they assert, were the other conspirators. The plot was carefully laid and would have been carried out had the girl been able to hold her tongue. She informed Jessie Hawthorne, a friend, and Miss Hawthorne informed the police. The officers got hoi- of a written contract that was given her, and the matter was laid before the police board, which is investigating iL The contract is signed, thus giving the clew which the police are working. lie lias Ueeo Fighting; the Saloons. The attempt at blackmail is said to have originated from the fact that Oeschger has been fighting the saloons here. He has been active in the reform movement in this city and a number of threats have been made against him. The cases against the saloonkeepers are now occupying the attention of the Knox circuit court. Rev. Oeschger came here about two years ago from Chicago and at once gained prominence as a reformer. Time and again he has escorted intoxicated men through the streets to their homes, aiding them to combat the Influence of drink. He is about 40 years of age. and before Le came here he spent much time working among the slums of Chicago. His wife is also a preacher and has often occupied his pulpit.

One of the greatest temperance victories ever known In this part of the state has been won iu Laurimle township. The applications for saloon licenses have been refused to Joseph C. Yount, Clinton Hollenbeck and William Stultz. The attorneys for these men spent much time at the Lafayette hearing examining the signatures of remonstrators, and out of sixty names only six were thrown out. The temperance people had a majority of 12 against Yount 14 against Stultz, and 1 against Hollenbeck. Each remonstrance contained 410 names. About 150 claims have been presented, through this section, by people summoned as witnesses. They say they are entitled to mileage and fees. The liquor men, who will have to bear the costs, are contesting the right of the remonstrators to fees, asserting that they were parties to the case and not witnesses. Prayed Against a Saloon.
