Tn, complete report Of the pipeline companies for
November recorded reduction In net stocRs OF
513971 barrels to 11,412772 barrels, the amount Oh
outstanding National Transit certificates being oJs''-
oos barrels The daily average OF the November runs
was 90 g67 barrels reduction of 76 barrels from the
daily average in October and comparing with the
November figures Of the last three years as follows
1888, 40 500 barrels 1887, 4O,242 barrels 1884, ~
146 barrels The difference between the average OF
the two November months of 1887 and 1888 t43,4o'

the decline OF $40 barrels comparing November,
1880 and November, 1886. indicates natural move
ment of falling production. 1t is true that the out
put last month IS substantially the same as that In
october but as tho new production increased, accord
ing to the monthly report, 2,223 barrels day, there
must have been an offset through tho decline In oil
production.
II will be noted. however that the November de-
llyeries were smaller than in November OF the TWO
preceding years. and practically the same as IN looo
Here are the daily averages in November; lsoo' ol-
oss barrels; 1888, "a 636 barrels 1851, o4O2o par
rcls; 1896, 81 JIG barrels. But such comparison
would be misleading by itself The shrlnkage of de-
liveres from October was 351 1919 barrels, but the
total amount OF deliveries from January l to Novem-
Der 80 inclusive. is 26773442 barrels, an increase
over the corresponding period OF 1888 of 213o4o
barrels 1887 OF 2,066,263 barrels, and over 1856
OF 2.3O2, 115 barrels. Such remarkable gain on
previous years tells the story of the growth of con-
sumption better than words could do IT Is fair 10
assume that the deliveries will amount 10 100000
barrels this month, probably closing the year 1859
with the unprecedented record OF over 29,75O,0O0
barrels.
Appended is a table showing the deliveries by
months in the years 1856. 1887 1883 and 1882 ar
