A BIG PIPE LINE.
Rockefeller to Unite All the South
western Oil Territory.

New Orleans, July 27.-John Rockefel-
Ter. the Standard Oil magnate, is believ-
ed to be planning a gigantic pipe line
that will practically give him control
of the entire oil product of the Louisi-
ana and Texas oil fields. The Standard
is largely interested in the Kansas oil
fields and 1t is said that plans are be-
ing perfected for pipe line traversing
that state. Missouri, Indian Territory
and penetrating the Louisiana and Tex
as fields, making the longest pipe line
in the world, covering a vast territory
and merging the products of all these
fields at some point convenient for ship
ment and refining purposes. News of
this enterprise was brought to New Or
leans through a letter received by Will
lam H. Mason of st. Louis, who is reg
istered at the st. Charles hotel, from J.
G. Stream. cashier of the City National
bank of Kansas City.
IF these plans are put into execution
it means the development of the south
ern oil fields to their fullest capacity
said Mr.. Mason. pennsylvania has been
the main source of supply for years, but
this means the independence of the
south and west. Even the contempla-
ton of so gigantic an undertaking
shows that the Louisiana and Texas oil
fields are very promising. The plans as
outlined seem to be for a pipe line ex-
tending from Kansas through the In
dian Territory, Texarkana, touching the
Texas and Louisiana fields"

Tucumcari People Object to
Dalhart Dispatch.
Claimed That Suspension of
ChOctaw Work Is Temporary.
CAUSE OF THE DELAY.
Said to Be the Fight With
State of Texas.
Tucumeari Expects Four Rail-
roads to Enter There.

Tucumcari. n. NJ, July 27.-Quite a
bit of surprise was felt here last Fri
oay, when word was received by all of
the sub-contractors working on the con-
struction of the Choctaw at this place,
and out on the line. to stop work. It
was not known just what the cause
Was,and various conjectures were made,
II none Of which was there doubt ex-
pressed as to the resumption of work.
at an early date. The contractors are
working night and day to finish out the
ten days which the contractor allows
them after notice is given. over 20 per
cent Of the grade between here and
Amarillo is finished, and the road
should have been completed within two
months, and trains running.
The real reason of the stoppage of the
work is that there is a fight on between
the Rock Island and the Texas railroad
commission ana as soon as the matter
is settled, which win doubtless be in
the federal courts. work will be resum-
ed on the Choctaw.
The Santa Fe surveying corps, who
have been encamped = mile and a half
from Tucumcdri, for the past three
weeks, have about completed work on
the locating of the permanent survey
of the Santa F'e cutoff from Hutchin-
son, Kansas, to Belen, New Mexico,
from Logan, on the Canadian river, to
this place From mere they go south TO
point near Santa Rosa, working grad
ually until they meet the other corps,
from Belen, out. Quite a bit of the
construction from Belen, this way, has
been finished.
An erroneous impression seems to
prevail in Dalhart, a small station 80
miles east from here, the junction of
the c. & 5. and the Rock Island, in
regard to the stoppage of work on the
Choctaw. They have been heralding the
news through dispatches to the daily
papers that work on the Choctaw had
been permanently abandoned. and that
Dalhart was 70 be the junction point Of
all the railroads projected, or now
building, in the entire west. Most of
these things, however. exist only in the
imagination of anxious property hold
ers at the above place.
Tucumcari undoubtedly has a very
bright future ahead, as when the Choc-
taw is completed and the Santa Fe cut
Off is built, it will have four railroads,
and will enjoy the distinction of being
the only town in New Mexico which has
that many roads, 1t will not only be a
railroad center. but will be distrib-
uting and wholesale point having the
advantage of being a common point,
when these roads are completed.

HARGER KNOWS.
Wall Street Journal Says He Under
stands Financial Situation.

New York, July 27.-The Wall Street
Journal says: Charles NJ. Harger, edi-
tor of the Abilene (Kan.) Reflector, is
the first western writer on the subject
of the harvest demand for money who
has shown a just appreciation of the
burden which this demand imposes upon
the banks of New York. Most western
bankers, no doubt, understand the mat
ter thoroughly, but much that has been
written about it has given a distorted
view of the situation. Just as Wall
street sometimes imagines that it SUP
plies all the money for. the moving Of
the crops, SO the west. in the pride of
its new wealth, is disposed to boast of
its independence of the east and to claim
that it can harvest its own crops with
out any assistance from Wall Street
Both of course, are wrong.
Mr. Harger, in a very intelligent ar
ticle on the subject in the last issue of
the Independent, shows exactly what
the crop moving demand means both
to the west and to the east. BY way of
preface, it should be explained to those
who may not understand even now the
why and the wherefore of the harvest
demand, that it is call not for credit
but for currency. If the crops could be
moved by an output of checks in other
words, by a transfer of credits, it would
cause comparatively little disturbance 10
the money market. But it calls for cur
rency or transfer Oh actual CASH. Inc
loss of this cash greatly reduces the
credit capacity of the New York banks,
in the last half Of the year, and it is
some time before the money begins 10
return again to the reservoirs of credit.
Mr.. Harger plainly shows in his article
the west does not always realize the
enormous demand which large harvest
makes upon its resources until it reach
es the acute stage of the money needs.
Then the east, likewise unprepared
because of the early claim that the
west could take care of itself, is sud-
denly called upon to supply the money.
The currency which it supplies, it may
be added, may in large part be the
withdrawal of western funds upon de-
post here or lent out in the Wall street
market, but the effect upon the eastern
money market is the same, practically
as if it had been called upon to lend all
of the amount needed. Every loan
which the west makes in Wall street,
and then calls whenever its necessities
require, must, in the nature of the case.
be an added burden to the New YORK
banks, which are expected to take and
carry the loan that the western institu-
ton have thrown over"

HAS MOVED $1,000 CARS.
Santa Fe Proves 1t Can Ship Fruit on
Its Own Wheels.

To date a few more than 10000 car
loads of circus fruit have been shipped
from California to the east this season
II is estimated that the total number
of cars shipped for the season of 1904
will amount to at least $4,000. or the
record by wide margin over previous
years. The Atchison usually handles
about 60 per cent of the traffic, which
would bring its showing up to about
p. 900 cars, an increase of more than
3 900 over the previous year. The inn
portance of this lies in the fact that the
company has handled all the shipments
in its own cars this year and practical
ly none has been given to the private
car lines.
