THE GREASE T.
Something About the Magnitude OF Our
Petroleum Product.

There are 30, 900 producing oil we'll,
in Pennsylvania, yielding at present
so 900 barrels of oil q day. 1t requires
5000 miles of pipe line and LOCO iron
tanks of an average capacity of $4,000
barrels each to transport and store the
oil and surplus stocks. There are now
nearly $4,000 barrels of oil stored in
the region in tanks. This oil would
make 3 lake more than one mile
square and 10 feet deep.
The money actually invested in
petroleum production since 1860 is es-
timated TO be more than S425, 900 900,
Of which 5000, 600, 900 was capital from
New York city. Since 1880 more than
II, 900 900 has been used in building
iron tanks, and nearly MS much in nine
lines, all 10y one corporation. The
tanks cost on an average 5000 each.
A 80 900 barrel tank is 90 feet in di-
ameter and % feet high. There is a
lateral pressure of 5000 pounds on each
square inch Of q tank of this size when
full of oil. There are 100 tons of iron
used in constructing me.
The speculative transactions in petro-
leum represent more than SOC, 600 900
annually. The lowest price crude
petroleum ever brought was ten cents
a barrel, in 1861, In 1859, when there
was only one well in existence. Colonel
brakes Pioneer at Titusville the price
was S24 a barrel. Besides the 5000
miles ofpipe line muse in the oil regions,
there are IN operation l,20C miles OF
trunk pipe line, connecting with Cleve-
land, Pittsburg, Buffalo aud New York;
and lines building to Philadelphia and
Baltimore. In the line between Olean
and New York 5000 barrels of oil
are transported daily. These lines
are all the property of the
Standard oil company, except one
betgeen Bradford and Wiiliamsport,
Pa. The Standard employes ice, 600
men. The product of its refineries re-
quires the making Of 5000 oak barrels
Of 40 gallons each and 100, 600 tin FANS
holding five gallons each, every day.
The first American petroleum ever ex-
ported was in 1862. Charles Lockart
OF Pittsburg sent nearly COG, 900 gallons
to Europe in that year and sold il for
az, 900 less than the cost of Transport
tation. In 1888 nearly 400 ,000, 900 gal
Ions were exported, for which $50 Co.,
600 were returned TO this country.

Grated but fifteen minutes. Several other sim
