New York, Jan. "A special to the

In the commercial treaty to be nego-

CALIFORNIA; Promising Future.

The attention Of the east is being
attracted to California in a marked de-
gree" said a man from the Pacific
coast the other day. THE great field
for the eastern investor will henceforth
be found in the northern part of the
state. The development Of gold and
copper mines In Shasta county, and
particularly the discovery Of oil in the
northern counties is assuming such
proportion that they cannot longer be
hidden from the investment seeker,
and eastern capital will not fail to dis
cover the great possibilities. The oil
industry Of California will reach this
year an output Of over / $1,000, 900 bar
rels. The Santa Fe and Southern Pa
cihc railroads are burning oil on their
locomotives; the sugar rehneries,
street railway power houses and manu-
featuring industries are substituting
II for coal. -Four months age the
home consumption for fuel only
amounted to over 4O0, 900 barrels a
month. Coal in California costs from
So to S14 a ton. u is imported from
Washington, British Columbia and
Australia. Hence petroleum, Of which
four and a half barrels equal a ton Of
coal, Is proving a boon to California. "
