Oklahoma City, May 29 Indian Com missioner Sells and Lieutenant Richardson 'of the navy department, with a large party visited the Healdton oil field, near Ardmore, Okla. Commissioner Sells was particularly interested because 50 per cent of pro duction is from Indian allotments. though his primary purpose in coming was to determine the feasibility of a government pipe line from -the Mid-Continent-field to the gulf.

"V- A The Magic Bed Mark JTU) IWl TMIITh A ML, exciting: episode in the speculative pits wound up the crop year today, but the display was altogether different from what had been expected and It looked as If the chif manipulators had been singed. Contrary to prediction It waa corn and not wheat that Jumped skyward. Furthermore the chief owners of wheat who had been looked upon as likely to extort artificial profits from stubborn or otherwise foolish shorts. were caught napping as to corn, and had to pay more or less fancy prices for as much as a million bushels.

In the last few minutes of trading, corn Tushed up to seventy-four cents a bushel for May delivery an advance of 2 l-4c compared with the night On the other hand, wheat finished at a net decline of l-8c to 1-4 at 3-8c. Promised government investigation as to why May wheat notwithstanding the present flattering crop outlook, had been held seven cents higher than a year ago was regarded by many people as largely the cause of the leniency shown today In the pit toward the wheat shorts who seemed virtually at the mercy of one big firm that had acquired five-sixths of all the wheat available In Chicago for delivery on contracts expiring today. The fact that the same big firm was in a way dramatically takeh captive at the moment of what appeared a magnamious triumph "or shrewd forbearance was regarded as an incident for which there has perhaps never been a parallel here on 'change.

"There's No Place Like HolmeC "GASSER" HAS MANY GUESSING Mrs. T. P. Hayes, Whose Husband Made Strike on St. Francis Avenue Cooks Egg Over Flame.

DIG ANOTHER WELL LIGHT OF FIRST BY Old Time Citizens Recall That Half Mile From Hayes Well City Bored "Dry' Hole. Either Wichita has the shallowest gas well in the west or an apparent Impossible leak from a main is mak ing a host of citizens think so. When the Eagle announced the first of the week that a gas well had been brought in in the fifteenth block on North- St Francis avenue nine out of ten per sons thought the news report a mis take. But recently citizens have awakened to the possibilities of a gas field being located under the city and which is feeding shallow wells. But old timers are skeptical.

They call to mind that half a mile west of the "gasser" on St. Francis avenue the city spent a lot of money on a dry hole. Working on his second well by light furnished by gas from the first one, T. P. Hayes, 1649 St.

Francis avenue, sunk his new well fifteen feet farther yesterday. Mr. Hayes dropped a match down the second hole last night, and the explosion 'that followed was so violent that he was knocked to the ground. The sand in which the pipe of the second well is being sunk is so loose that blows from a sledge hammer are sufficient to drive the pipe into the gTound. The depth reached is forty-five feet.

Mr. Hayes Intends to sink this sec ond well as far as he can in the loose sand. He wishes to ascertain the depth of the strata of sand which out crops on his land, and so will drive the pipe through it. When he has succeeded in getting this pipe as deep as he wants it. he will draw it and then decide what he wants to do with the well "The flow from the first well seems to be getting stronger," said Mrs.

Hayea last night. "I boiled an egg over the blaze of this well yesterday morn lng, and am sure that if I had it in my house I could do the family copk ing with it. Since the gas was first lighted Thursday morning, it has never gone out. The tin can that was placed around it has protested the flame from I the wind, and gas is still comnia: out of the well."
