MINING AND OIL
MILL ON CHERRY CREEK
SUSPENDS OPERATIONS
Glasgow and Western Gives Out
Orders to Discontinue Work.
No Reasons Are Given
WINNEMUCCA, Nov., Doc. 12.—Op
orations at the Star mill of the Glas
gow and Western Exploration com
pany fit Cherry Creek suddenly ceased
last Friday when orders were received
by telegraph to shut down the mill at
once. Why the order was given or
how long the mill remains Idle Is on
known nt present, nor can any one
figure out the reason. About twenty
men were employed In and around the
mill.
The shutdown cannot be on account
of lack of ore, though It may bo be
cause the grade of ore now being
mined is high enough to ship to the
smelter as economically ns to treat it
in the mill at the mine. A reaprt says
a two-foot ledge was recently opened
that carries 200 ounces silver ore to
the ton, and the claim is made that
another strike was also made of the
richest ore ever found in the mine,
■which was famous years ago for the
high grade silver ores that were hauled
to Toana and shipped to smelters for
reduction.
The Exploration company is con
trolled by Scotch and English capital
ists and owns mines at Battle moun
tain and Golconda in this state and
one in Utah, besides being interested
In mining in other parts of the world.
King Edward VII was said to have
heon one of the owners of the com
pany. For seven years previous to
two years ago the mine was idle, ex
cept that a force of nine engineers and
pumpmen were kept at work pumping
the water from the lower workings at
an estimated expense of several thou
sand dollars a month. The mill at the
mine is the fourth erected for the
property and has a capacity of 100 tons
a day, being equipped with a concen
trating and cyanide combination
process.
MAYS GUSHER DROPS TO
SEVEN HUNDRED BARRELS
TAFT, Dec. 12.—The Mays well on
section SO, 31-23, which came in a
short time before the Lakeview and
was pronounced at that time the "big
best well in the world," is now flow
inp about 700 barrels a day. The Job
of installing the Texas strainer does
not appear to have been very success
ful In this instance and the produc
tion of the well is further reduced by
an obstruction in the tubing above
the perforation, so that the well is
flowing between the tubing and the
inner casing only.
It is not the intention of the manage
ment to bother with it as long as there
is fairly good production, but should
it 'continue to decrease it Is probable
that the treatment of hot oil will be
used. The production of the well two
months ago was reliably reported at
1700 barrels a day.
Well No. 2 which is In the southeast
corner and directly across the forty
acro lease from No. 1 is down 200 feet
with the eight-Inch casing and going
nicely. According to the log of No. 1
this well should roach the sand at
about 2800 feet. It will be finished
with six-Inch casing, giving a much
larger opening into the sand than that
of No. 1.
FOSSILIZED WHALE FOUND
BURIED NEAR ATLANTA WELL
Within a few yards of the Atlantic
Oil company's derrick for well No. 1
on Sulphur mountain, I. E. Levi and
party yesterday found the perfectly
fossilized remains of a large whale
nnd promptly named the well thn
Whale. The big animal is embedded
In the shale formation on the top of
the mountain, at an elevation of 2500
feet and about eighteen miles inland
from the coast Embedded with it are
r number of fossil shells and small
fish. The whole mountain is an im
mense portion of elevated sea bed,
overlying an oil bearing formation
which crops out in places and has a
number of oil and gas seepages.
LOST HILLS STRIKE
BAKERSFIELD, Dec. 12.—Robert
Rader, on section 30, 27-22, at the
southern extremity of the Lost Hills,
has seven feet of Rood oil sand at 330
feet, and some thinner streaks stiil
shallower. A two-foot vein oil sand
is reported at 150 feet on an adjoining
quarter.
Rader, who is not a geological ex
pert, but who has had a great deal of
experience as a practical man, long be
fore any drillings were made in this
part of the field, predicted that oil
wculd be found between 300 and 400
feet. He based his opinion on the
formation as he was able to trace it
from the surface, and from the same
Indications he thinks he will find a
thicker oil sand at a greater depth.
The present strike Is sufficient to
prove upon, and the derrick was moved
to another location.
RECEIVES FREE REPORTS
The Chamber of Mlnea and Oil has
received for distribution from the Unit
ed States Geological survey a limited
supply of copies of a bulletin covering
the mine production for 1008 of gold,
silver, copper, load and zinc, in the
western states and territories. Copies
may be obtained by calling at the
chamber quarters, In the Germain
building.
MIDWAY NORTHERN WELL
COMES IN AS GUSHER;
20,000 BARRELS AN HOUR
MARICOPA, Deo. 12.—T0 K. O.
Ekstrom, president Midway Northern Oil
company, f.o« Angeles, Cal.:
"Well No. 1 broke loose at 6 o'clock
but nlgbt and flowed at the rate of
over 20,000 barrel! for hour and a half,
then sanded up. Ten teams have been
put to work making new sump holes.
Gates have been Installed and the well Is
under perfect control. Crews are now
preparing to open the well again. The
oil Is of much higher gravity than here
tofore. S. M. WAKMBATH."
The original depth of the well was
1910 feet. The company lias been drill
ing the well deeper and at 19S0 feet she
'■••okn loose. The itrw was at dinner
when the well snooted.
PALMER WELL FLOWS
200 BARRELS A DAY
Indications Are New Producer
Will Gradually Increase Out
put-Four Rigs Drilling
The Palmer Oil company's well No.
4 B camo in last Friday. When put on
the pump it started off at the rate of
200 barrels a day, accompanied by very
strong gas pressure. As the sand
clears the well becomes stronger, the
output steadily increasing. This Is the
manner In which all the Palmer wells
have come in, small at first and stead
ily increasing to big producers. From
all indications this new one is in a
fair way to rival the No. 2 B, which
flows 8000 barrels a day.
The Palmer company now has four
producing wells. Four more are drilling.
The next one to come in will be No.
7 8, now cementing. Following that
No. 5 B will come In. It is at present
drilling in blue shale at 1800 feet.
The company has been successful
from the atart. Its well No. 1 B alone
enabled it to pay dividends of 1 per
cent a share a month before No. 2
came in. Every well that goes down is
a success, and the Palmer company
alone has SBO acres to cover with wells.
With the Palmer Junior and Palmer
Senior Included the holdings amount to
2710 acres.
In this area the pay sands run from
800 to 1200 feet thick, with a saturation
of 15 to 60 per cent. W. W. Orcutt,
geologist for the Union Oil company,
figures that there are 1,000,000 barrels
of oil to the acre In parts of this ter
ritory.

LOS ANGELES HERALD: TUESDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 13, 1910.
News of the Courts
OFFICIALS ASK RELEASE
OF TWO IN MURDER CASE
Deputy District Attorney Ex
plains Facts in the Shively
Tragedy at San Gabriel
Joseph Ford, deputy district attor
ney, yesterday asked that George A.
Stone and his wife, Clara Stone, ac
cused of having murdered their friend,
Morgan Shively at San Gabriel Jan
uary 2 last, bo released. He gave as a
reason for the request that the district
attorney and his associates realized
there could be no conviction on the
evidence that could b© produced. Judge
Davis dismissed the case.
Shively was a motorman for the Pa
cific Electric Railway company and
lived with the Stones at their San
Gabriel homo. Besides the defendants,
the last person to see him alive was
the conductor who worked with him,
Fred R. Donaldson, to whom he said
goodby at the end of their "run" about
2:15 o'clock the morning of January 2.
His body was found at 7 o'clock that
morning a few blocks from the house
occupied by the Stones.
Prior to moving the dismissal of the
case and the release of the defendants
Mr. Ford made a statement to the
court in which he reviewed the circum
stances of the tragedy and the mys
tery enveloping it. He stated that
neither husband nor wife could be
compelled to testify against each
other; that no one else, so far as could
be learned, has any knowledge of the
events immediately preceding the
tragedy, and that the defendants cer
tainly would be acquitted. In the cir
cumstances, if put on trial. He added
that the crime charged—murder—does
not outlaw, and therefore new prose
cutions may be started if additional
evidence is obtained. I

AMENDMENTS PROPOSED
FOR LIQUOR ORDINANCE
Permission May Be Granted to
Sell Beer at Picnics
and Outings
Several amendments to the liquor
ordinance were proposed to the police
commission by Guy Eddie, city prose
cutor, at the meeting last night. These
j amendments are to be considered by
the committee of the whole and if they
meet the approval of the commission
the council will be asked to amend |
the ordinance.
One amendment is that asked for by
the central organization of the Ger- I
man-American societies and which the j
council denied last week. It will en
uble the police commission to grant a
special permit to sell liquor for one j
day only to bona fide organizations.
Such permits cannot be granted more
than six times a year to one organiza
tion. No license fee Is suggested, but
it probably will be $5 or $10 a day. The ;
Los Angeles Germans want such a pro- ;
vision so they can have beer at their :
picnics and dances.
Another amendment prohibits hotels
serving liquor in their restaurants )
without meals. By another lessees are j
given the right to sign protests against
the commission granting a liquor per
mit in the block in which they do
I business, as well as the property own
ers.
PROPOSED ORDINANCE TO
MAKE BRICKYARDS MOVE
Plants May Be Compelled to
Stay in Industrial District
Brickyards not in the industrial!
district are to be given one year to
ch>se up their business and get out
of town or into the industrial district,
and those that are not within the in
dustrial district will be subjected to
strict regulations, if the recommenda
tion the legislation committee will re
port to the council today is adopted, i
The recommendation is the outcome
of a hearing before the committee last
Saturday morning in which Boyle
Heights residents asked that four;
brickyards in their district be ousted
as soon as possible. They complained
of them as nuisances and a serious
detriment to the value of their prop
erty.
There are four brickyards in Boyle
Heights that were the subjects of com
plaint, but all except the Los Angelas
Brick company are in the industrial
district.
The committee will recommend that
the city attorney be instructed to draw
an ordinance incorporating the most
stringent regulations of brickyards
that are not asked to move. They
must be equipped with smoke con
sumers and every modern device to
"render them as innocuous as pos
clble," as Councilman Andrews, chair
man of the legislation committee, ex
pressed It.
The provisions of the ordinance will
apply to every brickyard in the city.
PLAN BOULEVARDS FOR
GRIFFITH PARK ENTRANCES
South entrances to Griffith park are
to be provided with broad, beautiful
boulevards, if the plan of J. B. Lippin
cott, park commissioner, is carried out.
A start was made on the plan yes
terday when the park commission
asked the council to instruct the city
engineer to prepare surveys and ordi
nances for the condemnation of land
for the boulevards. It is planned to
have one road enter Mocchuenga can
yon at the head of Western avenue
and another at the head of Vermont
avenue.
These boulevards are to be 200 feet
wide, but as the land that will be used
for them is not high priced, it Is not
expected that the improvement will be
expensive.
The only entrance to the big natu
ral park now is from the north side,
and it is almost inaccessible from the
Hollywood side.
DRAFTS LIGHTING ORDINANCE
The city attorney will present an
ordinance to the council today provid
ing for the ornamental lighting of
Sixth street from Main to Alameda.
This ordinance is in accordance with
a petition from the property owners
on the street and contemplates that
the posts will be erected without coat
to the city.

offices of the coast lines of the Santa

his absence W. B. Story, jr., of San
Francisco, who is well known among

ters will be in Chicago.

the superior court were those of Julia
Benrosch against Albert Benrosch;

Coleman Parker; Florence R. West
