sists that he saw both boilers ten minutes
before the explosion, and that they con.
tained plenty Of water and sixty-avs
pounds pressure Of steam.
The portion of the building still stand

MILLIONS MADE In OIL.
$i1,000,000 WAS CLEARED.
Most Remarkable Short Turn In Worlds
Commercial History.

The Standard oil Company has made the
play Of its existen ,e. Its aggregate profits
out Of the advance in oil will approximate
not less than eli 100000.
Incidentally everybody engaged in the oil
industry In the Pennsylvania field, compris-
ing the Keystone state, Southeastern Ohio,
West Virginia and New York has prollted
commensurately to the extent OF their hold
ings In the Standards big turn aud number
less small fortunes have been made.
The realization Of these enormous profit
Is contingent upon the ability OF the big com
pany to refine and market the oil which
1t has acquired at remunerative prices. In
this case. the Standard probably has the
ability. and. while oil may be sold at less
than the present prices OF refined, 1t can be
safely estimated that the turn will net Sll,-
OO0, 900 TO the company.
The handsome winnings OF the producers
have already been made aud they need not
have n care whether the standard has made
good or bad bargain. Such remarkable
transactions as have taken place In oil In
dusiry during the past few days have proea.
bly, never been equaled In the commercial
history OF the world IN such brief period,
and the chances are that it will not happen
again for many years.
At the outstart tho Standard owned four
or live million barrels OF oil in stock, which
was purchased at prices below the dollar
marx. THIS has appreciated Ia value l.5O
per barrel, upon which the Standard clears
$4,000 00O.
The production aggregates about 1900
barrels per day, Of which the Standard owns
80. 900 barrels. on n low estimate, although 1t
IL credited with controlling 80 per cent OF the
entire production. This has also increased
In value :l.5O per barrel, and with the APP
probation In the value of 100000 OF oil
property purchased before the boom In oil
took place. 1t Is estimated that the company
is at least 81. 600, 900 richer on its producing
property making the grind total pront oil
sll.0O0,0 900 IN stocks and production.
Altogether there are about from 1000 TO
5000 producers who were enriched during
the same brief period. Some have done bet
ter than others, according as they sold 10 tho
standard at high or top prices. The pro-
ductlon of the Pennsylvania field has IN
word increased In value tll2,00O per day,
and while 1t is impossible to say how much
refined oil was In stock when the boom COM
mcnced. 1t is likely that big pile OF money
Will be realized from this source also.
