The panic in the oil market last
week is said TO have been brought about by
vandergrift, the President Of the United Pipe
Line Co., who went around to the different
bank presidents In Pittsburgh offering notes Of
the company for large amounts, at discount,
he int nf choGf fotf in he
Co. The banks got scared and unloaded the
certificates they held as security-hence the
panic. 1t was a set up game and worked
well.

During q few minutes of last
Thursday afternoon the price of oil fell from
100 per barrel to 973 cents. and next day an
other sudden tumble brought the price down
" SO cents. The two tumbles heeced nearly all
the spectators in the country. Many reasons
are given for these sudden declines, but 1t is
likely the Standard Oil Co. that brought them
about. We are sorry for our boys who lost,
and wish them better luck next time, if they
must keep at 1t.

The decline Of crude petroleum
within the past few days is attributed largely
10 overtrading; but there are other factors Of
more Importance even than excessive specula-
agents Of the Standard Oil Company and the
business Of fleeing the lambs this fall has been
unusually profitable. In few weeks oil will
advance again with bound, more victims will
be drawn in. TO be squeezed dry by another de-
cline like that Of the past few days. Men are
prone to risk their savings in speculation, and
can be with difficulty dissuaded from venture
some investments; but dealing in crude oil
does not come within those limitations which
are set TO all commercial risks. II is rather
like stacking up chips against brace faro
game. In addition there Is the almost ire
sistible temptation TO throw good money after
bad. Don't speculate; but If you will, at least
don't speculate in philadelphia Record.
