The OIL Market So Flat That Dealers Lose
Interest In It.
The oil market yesterday was so dull and
narrow that even the brokers took very little
interest in it. The squeezing process which Is
being pursued by the Standard. and the in
difference of the public are killing the trade
While this condition continues there is no
ground to hope for an improvement. Some OF
the brokers yesterday said they would not be
surprised if the price dropped to S5c or even
lower. The market opened at 9O1sc. The
highest point reached was 9014c, and the lowest
90c, which was the closing quotation. Carrying
was from 10 to 20cents. Puts we're offered at
S93zc, and calls at 90Ic. This indicates very
little confdencein the future on the part OF pro-
fessionals.
Field news was to this effect: Union Oil
Company Knox's No. was doing 80 barrels per
hour; Union OIL Company's Hagerty No. was
filed up and not flowing; McKeown No. D was
doing 20 barrels per hour; Knox NoA IL was
doing 80 barrels per hour; Knox No. Ii was at
the top of the sand; Shamrock. on the White
farm, was doing $50 barrels per day: the Fisher
WELL on the Gardner farm at Turkeyfoot, was
doing 2OO:barrels per day; the McKeown well at
Turkeyfoot was due.
