Josephus Collott and Demas
Deming. The consideration was $300,000 cash. The purchase by the syndicate was undoubtedly made as a speculation, and it is said that the intention is to soon turn the brewery over to the English syndicate. The deal was the largest single transfer ever made in Terre Haute.
The formal transfer of the Meyers brewery to the Crown Brewing Company was made Monday, and the plant is now in full operation under the new management. The ourrent report that the purchase of the brewery was a speculation is denied, the members of the new association deolarlng that it is their determination to operate the plant as a home institution for dividends, the English syndioate to the contrary notwithstanding. Mr. Meyer's intentions for the fu cure are not definitely known, although it is reported that he will establish a stook farm east of the oity.
The Idaho oil well has teen a&" Cloned at a depth of 1750 feet, the© factors and officers of the company bek^rf satisfied that the drills had passed through the strata in which oil would have been found, had there been any to find. The drills over the oity gradually dosing in on the territory and many are beginning to wonder where the oil of the Phoenix and Dial wells come from. There is oil below the city and plenty of it apparently. The question now coming up is where next to locate wells to go on with the search. The Guarantee association has began drilling at Eighth and Spruce streets, but the result of this well, for which there is much hope, cannot be known for seventy days at least.
One of those congregations of "sports" which is always an indication of a money-making scheme, took place near Fountanet early Sunday morning. The well advertised event which did not take place was a skin-tight glove fight to finish between Harry pates, of Brazil, and Stephen Currans, of this city. Several hundred persons had paid 11 per ticket for admission to the "secret," and were highly indignant when the announcement was made that the two bruisers had not reached a mutually satisfactory financial arrangement, and that there would be no fight. This has come to be the invariable, stereotyped termination of these quiet, "for-biood-only" contests, but that element which patronises always, still insists on being duped everytime an event comes round.
