"By a unanimous vote the report of th»
oil committee of the Producers' Associa
tion relative to the disposal of the local
oil output was approved at a meeting of
the original incorporators and the com
mittee was given "power to act. The re
port suggested ways and means for the
marketing of the home oil for five years
at prices that would meet with favor
among the producers of the field. In ' a.
word. It was satisfactory to the produ
cers represented, and. It Is said, will meet
with popular favor. So much ' Is an
nounced officially, but further details are
denied for the present, as the association
expects to close with a company or: com
panies before the end of the week.

oil was of such consistency that the" or
dinary pumping plant would not do' tho
work. The company has established a
tank at each of its wells. From each
well a galvanized iron trough, heated by
steam, .has been placed to nin the oil
off. One concern went nearly broke In
the attempt to handle this oil and sold
out when a chance came.
Progress of Producers, l
The Los Angeles Times reports the pro
gress of the Los Angeles oil producers on
their way to combination and handling
of their product as follows:
the oil encountered at 1400 feet is better
than most of that found In the district,
being of lighter gravity. There also ap
pears to be plenty of oil at that depth.
If these 'Statements are verified the sig
nificance to the oil Industry of California
Is great. The supply; of oil Is increased
and the quality will pay for going deeper.
The Los Angeles Herald says :
Evidence grows that the Standard OH Com
pany has fortified Haelf In the Kern River
better than is generally , known. Those famil
iar with the oil situation in the San Joaquin
Valley expect that the next few weeks will
bring to light a great many facts with which
the general public is not familiar. The Stand
ard Is building additional tankage in the Kern
River field and will be able to store in the
neighborhood of a half million barrels of oil,
which will put it in a position to give steady
supply, to consumers who are -yet hesitating
about the change to the new . fuel f»r. fear
they cannot secure a. continuous. supply. With
control of the Kern River situation, the Stand
ard naturally desires to get control of -the
oil of the local field, and it is believed that
the day in not far distant when the 'plans of
the great corporation will be In evidence. .

Pittsburg was visited to-day by one of
the fiercest storms known since the
United States Weather Bureau has been
established. Within forty-eight minutes
1.19 inches of rain fell, and during that
time the lightning and thunder were al

TANK BUILDING
NOW HELD BACK
Railroad Has Its Scheme
' to Manipulate the
' "Oil Men.
Los Angeles Makes Advance
Toward Marketing Its
Product.
The Southern Pacific Company Is again
opposing the oil producers and apparently
the oil men are not . aware of the opposi
tion. It : is well known that oil is being
extensively used by the railroad as fuel*
and the facilities for ¦ handling this have
been increased from time to time. Oil
burners are being added to engines and
all indications point to the exclusive use
of ollas a fuel. The cost of the two fuels,
coal and oil, compared, shows a difference
in favor of oil of 'almost one-third— this
with oil at 75 and 80 cents per barrel.' If
oil should decline It is not unreasonable to
suppose' that coal will do the same, which
will mean a still greater saving for the
ra'jlroad — an addition, of thousands of dol-
lars to the earnings of the road. '.
In v order to handle the output of the
company's wells in the Kern River and
McKittrick districts immense storage
tanKs have been erected and it was omy
recently that a 30,000-barrel tame was
completed at Tucson. All this was for
the s accommodation of oil for the use of
the company. - .
The Call has told its readers of the pur
chase of oil lanus in Texas for the rail
road-by J. B. Treadwell, the company's
oil land expert, who is in charge of the
company wells in the Kern River and
McKittrick j districts. Following these
preparations and along the same lines a
contract was recently made with the
Lacy Manufacturing Company of Los
Angeles for the erection of several 30,000
barrer storage tanks in Texas and Louisi
ana. Work was ordered rushed with all
possible speed. The Eastern concern sup
plying the material was requested to
hurry the same forward and shipments
were started to their various destinations
as fast as the mill could turn them out.
All these 5 preparations have ; suddenly
stopped. The shipments are being al
lowed to come forward, but when the ma
terial is received it will not be put to
immediate use, as was the original inten
tion. An official decree has been Issued
to the effect that the work is not to pro
ceed until further orders. - The material 13
to be stored until, in the indefinite future,
the order shall be given to proceed with
the erection- of the tanks.
To the oil men in the Texas and Louis
iana fields this will doubtless be discour
aging, for on its face it would appear that
the policy of the company as regards the_
use of oil as a fuel, has changed; that oil
will not be the exclusive fuel,' and that no
attempt will be made to handle the output
of the fields mentioned. . This would ap
pear to be the case, but appearatices are
deceitful. There Is, back of this order,
much to be considered— another thrust of
this" powerful corporation' at Its less
powerful antagonists ; another move in
the game which has been going on since
the oil industry reached its present stand
ing; another maneuver of the railroad in
the war upon the oil men. .
Finding 1 Lower Stratum.
A pipe line has been completed by the
McKittrick company to the railroad.
The second attempt to organize a,min
ing district in the Midway failed. The
Temblor and Kramer districts will try to
organize. • ,
Contracts have been let for the drilling
of a well at Goleta and another at Car
penteria. No oil has yet been struck at
either of those places, but expectation 1b
strong on the part of the prospectors that
they will find the fluid.
The exports of petroleum In May show a
gain in amount over May of last year of
over 13,000.000 gallons. The falling off in
price makes the value less by about
$300,000.
The Grace Company, in the Kern River
field, has found a stratum at a depth of
1400 feet that no other oil men have pre
viously discovered. It has also broken
the record for depth in that field. It will
be recollected that A. S. Cooper, then
State mineralogist, predicted that drilling
to lower levels in California- oil fields
would probably result in finding higher
grade oils. The Grace company would
seem to have verified that prediction for
that locality at least. It is reported • that
