Weeks ot labor fishing for the pipe has been unsuccess ful, aitd the company has decided to drill another because of the encour aging indications shown in the formations encountered while drilling the well now to be abandoned, The, Long Canyon well was started only last February and the sinking of the shaft has been one of the outstanding pieces of fast drilling in the oil To a certain extent this speed has been blamed for the loss of the hole. It has been said that the lower 4000-foot portion of the pipe was twisted loose because of a cave-in In the shaft, and that, such cave-Ins are often due to using a too liquid mud, one of the requisites to fast drilling. A steam shovel has been moved in to expedite the work of road building and preparatory leveling necessary for securing foundations for the new structure.

The same crew will be used and it is believed the same electrical drilling equipment also. The fact that the Shell company has decided to drill another well adjacent to the first hole is indicative of the company's faith In the Las Posas as an oil territory. At the 3000-foot depth and again at about 5000 feet some oil sand was discovered, and- In general the subterranean formations are said to be distinctly favorable to finding oil in commercial quantities.
