TABAHAKI PETROLEUM.
(Per Press Association.) | NEW PLYMOUTH, March 14. One of the biggest "blow-outs" yet experienced here occurred in the Taranaki Petroleum Company's No. 3 bore this morning, during deep drilling operations, pure oil being ejected to a great height, twelve barrels full of which was collcted. Operations at Nos. 1 and 2 bores continue satisfactory. The flow from the latter between the casings is continuous. All energies, however, are devoted to sinking deeper.
