There is no question of the oil indica tions. It is nonsense, he says, to call it lubricating oil from the maciiinery Pccnington staked off his own claims Thursday night. EI Paso parties are staking claims to day. It is a mistake about oil or water flowing over the casing. Nothing is'rais ed without pumping. Hovi the "Rank" ..Happened. The boring for artesian -water -was commenced January 35 and was given up Thursday morning at 10 oclock by E A. Mayo, who announced that the drill -which became "sand locked" a month ago at a depth of 1230 feet, was hopelessly fastened.. Believing, however, he stated Friday afternoon, that oil indications were good, he and his father and six others on Thursday night began staking oil claims. Associated -with the Mayos are ! Sheeley Stark, H., Gus and Elby Pen j nington, J. H. Smith, all of Dog Canyon, J and George "Warnock, of Alamogordo. They staked 400 acres m all.

Whitmore, night watch man at the well, and informed him of their action, and stated he believed there was oil in the -well. "Whetmore ran to Camp's house, nearby, and informed him I of the 'find," and soon all settlers in the valley ivho were also aroused, were 1 staking their claims for oil. "Whole . Country Staked Out.

GA ern railway's right of way and inroads have been made on that The staking of claims by the Mayos and their party, was commenced Thurs day night and was completed at 2 oclock Friday morning. The claims were named the "Mesquite." "Shamrock," and "Gush er," and comprise 400 acres. Upon Mr. Camp learning early Friday morning that claims were being staked he organized a party who staked 20 quarter sections of land "before day break. In his psfrty were himself and wife, I- E. Camp, Jlr. and Mrs. M. A. Boyd, Mr.and Mrs. J R. Hunter, John Bennett and mother, Mr. and Mrs. "Will Boyd, Li. I, and A. L. Beeman, J. F. Lulu, "W. M. and T. R. George, H. and M. "Wlutmore The rapidity with which the claims ere staked is due to the fact that the claim notices were prepared i -several weeks ago in order that the persons interested might post them upon the first announcement that oil had been discovered. The news spread over the valley Fri day, and all the settlers Immediately filed notices on their respective claims, until Friday night the grand total of acres under placer mining claims was 10.080. In every direction in the valley posts with tin can attachments are seen. In the cans are notices of the staking of lands, and cans are almost at a pr mium, size and style not considered.

P. & S. W. Interested. The expenses of the wel so far have been light. The actual drilling cost was stated Friday afternoon by Mr. War nock, of Alamogordo, who was the only citizen from that place in attendance, to be about $800. The material for the drill stem, was stated to be about $1100 The coal for the drilling work, three cars, has been donated by the South western railway, which has also sup plied 7S0 feet of casing. Experience of -the Drillers. Drilling work was first commenced on Jan. 15, and proceeded, with but few interruptions, until March 24, when the 1270 foot level was reached. Encoun tering the hard "blue shale rock, it was decided to pull the drill point up for sharpening, and it was raised 40 feet. At that juncture, the stay bolts, holding the crown sheets in the boiler, blew out, and the operations were necessar ily suspended. The boiler was repaired on March 28, and on March 29 an at tempt was made to pull the drill stem and point from the well. , By this time the quick sand had drift ed to the 600 foot level, in around the drill stem, aud the engine was not equal to the task, the sand having formed what is termed a "sand lock." Real izing that the weight of the sand around the drill stem wag too great to permit Its being drawn out of the well, the drilllers then installed a one and one quarter inch pipe in the well outside of the drill stem and began forcing the sand packed up, using 200 pound wa ter pressure. By April 14 the smd was reduced to a 985 foot level, and a second attempt was then made to pull the drill stem and point from the well, but the stem was pulled In two. 140 feet from the, surface. It was joined by a fishing spear and another attempt was made to lift the point. The engine, however, was not equal to the task. By this time, the sand had again fill ed the drill hole proper to the 5S6 level and again the water pressure system was installed to force the sand up on the outside of the drill stem to the surface. On Friday afternoon the un obstructed passage down the drill hole measured the same, 586 feet. "Work was again commenced this morning. The well to a depth of 650 feet, orig inally measured nine incnes In diame ter. For the first 150 feet the hole was cased with eight inch pipe. From the 650 foot level, the balance of the hole was originally seven and one-half inches. The drill used was of the rotary style, and this is also true of the inch and one-quarter pipe down though which the water Is forced by pressure to was the sand out. Some Conjectures. That the sand which has caused trou ble in the well, drifted in "from a 560 foot level, is the opinion of E. A. Mayo, notwithstanding the fact that the log of the well, between the 2S5A and 598 feet levels, records gumbo only. Mr. Mayo, however, asserts he was In (Continued on Page 7).
