PetroIeum:Field Work in septem Der.

PetroIeum:FieldW Work in SePtem Der.
The stimulating effect of the
higher prices being paid for the
product upon the drillers in the va
rious petroleum producing states is
shown clearly by the review of op'
erations during the month of Sep
TENDER. In every department
of development work a considera-
bic increase is noted, and it re-
quires but additional stimulus of a
few important strikes or the discov-
cry of a new pool to cause repeti,
ton of the feverish anxiety which
has several times followed in the
wake of conditions analogous to the
present. A feature of the present
activity, however, is the compare
lively meager results, the increased
number of wells adding less than
an average of two barrels to the
daily production, while in former
instances the increase in develop
ment work has been followed by a
substantial increase In both
the average and the total pro-
duction, the efforts to extend
productive limits have been re-
warded by rich fields. Endeavors
in this direction during the past
month have been discouraging ow-
ing to the small caliber of the pro.
ductive wells and the increased
number of dry holes. While the
field operations during the month
of September show an increase in
the new production, this cannot be
regarded as indicating an implove-
ment in the situation. On the con-
trary, the results have been so un"
satisfactory there is little reason to
expect an important increase In the
output to follow future operations,
the conclusion being inevitable that
the richest territory has already
been exploited and that the driller
In the older fields can scarcely
hope for wells of more than aver
age production, and this average
appears to be growing smaller.
Of course, there is possibility
that a new. pool of considerable
magnitude may yet reward the
"wildcatter," but as the lines are
extended the possibility becomes
more remote, In the Indiana and
Ohio fields the prospects may be re-
garded as somewhat better, al
though it is believed the sections
promising the best results have al
ready been thoroughly tested.

PETROLEUM MARKET.
Saturday noon, Oct. 8, 1897.

Saturday noon, Oct. 8, 1897.
The monthly rer ort of field oper-
atoms shows a large increase in the
number of wells completed and Of
wells drilling and rigs in course Of
erection, but the increase in new
production is small, amounting to
only about two barrels per we'll for
the increased number. This shows
the low average production of the
new wells being brought IN, and
with the larger proportion of dry
holes reported indicates that the eff
forts to find new pools and import
ant extensions to productive terri
tory have not been successful. The
result of field operations during the
past month gives little encourage
ment to hope for an increase of the
output and a reduction in the diff
ference between the amount of
runs and deliveries. Meanwhile,
the deliveries continue large and
the drain on the stocks above
ground is as large as ever. The
situation, field and statistical, is
growing in strength day by day and
the effect on prices has been such
as may be expected under the cir
cumstances, the figures offered by
the purchasing agencies having
been moved up three times during
the past week, crude at the wells
showing an advance of SC. per bar
rel and refined Nc. per gallon. The
higher prices tend to still further
stimulate field work and unusual
activity is noticeable in every sec
ton of the producing area. The
field situation is considered more
fully in our editorial pages. Con-
siderable interest has been shown
on the exchanges, but the transac-
tons in certificates have not been
heavy.

The number of wells completed

the September wells was about
nineteen and three-quarter barrels,
while that of August wells was
twenty and one sixth barrels. The

they did. It was caution the way
some of them went after the good
things which had been prepared foI
the occasion. The banquet lasted
fully an hour, which, as toastmas-
ter, Mr.. Blackmarr called on some
of those present for speeches.
Among those who responded
were Col. w. c. Turner, who made
very learned talk during which he
stated that he had been requested
on the part of the hose company to
make presentation speech and to
present to Capt. ]. T. Jones, who
had been expected to be present a
fine bouquet, which had been ar
ranged for him with the best wishes
of the company. In lieu of Capt.
ZONES, the token of esteem was
presented to Capt. w. L. Arm
strong who received it in a gracious
manner and told the assembled
company how much Capt. Jones
would appreciate the token.
Mayor Lawrence was also pre-
scented with very pretty bouquet
of fine flowers by Mr.. Blackmarr in
a neat and pleasant manner and the
Mayor responded briefly.
Among the others who had few
words to say when called upon
were Councilman Hays, Recorder
Sybert, Councilmen Bailey, Harry
Work, and A. Bruce Hunt, E.
Cohen, o. G. Guyton, Charles F.
Douglass and others.
The banquet and celebration was
one of the most pleasant events of
the kind that has ever been held ia
the city and those present retired at
a late hour, after having enjoyed
all the hospitalities, wishing the
members of the J. 7. Jones hose
company continued popularity and
success.
