Des Moines, Nov. 23.-There are two
of the Standard Oil subsidiary compan-
les duly incorporated in Iowa, but no
oil business is done in the state, by or
thru either of them. In fact, the poll
icy here as elsewhere has been TO have
all the oil business done by foreign
corporations, and the two companies
maintained in Iowa are for the pur-
pose of evading laws in other states.
The Standard Oil Company OF Iowa
was organized in 1855, with headauar-
ters in Council Bluffs, and capital OF
one million dollars. AT that time only
a nominal filing fee was required. In
1892 the company reduced its stock "a
$10O, OOO, and in 1905 this charter was
renewed for a twenty-year period. on
May 16, 1908, the company reduced its
capital to only $1,000 This company
is maintained and reports regularly
The Continental Oil Company. also
of Council Bluffs, was organized in
1884 with 100000 capital. and in 1904
twenty years more with the same cap
ita
The Continental is the Standard
company which carries on the business
/ in Colorado with headquarters at Den
ver probably also in some other west
ern states. 1t is not known whether the
Standard Oil Company of Iowa trans
acts any business anywhere.
| All the oil business of the STANDARD
people done in Iowa is done by the
Standard oil Company of Indiana. The
capitalization of this company is MOI
on record in Iowa and officially the
state has no information in regard to
the same.
