CONTROVERSY INVOLVES
THREE OIL COMPANIES
SubIeasing of Claim Adds to
Complexities of Squabble

There is a controversy between the
Los Angeles Nc Kittrick oil company
and the Consolidated Midway oil com
pany over title to certain tract in the
northwest quarter of section 32-12-23
says the Midway Oil Courier
The Los Angeles McKittrick oil COM
pany has lease on the west half Of
the quarter, while the Consolidated
Midway claims 60 acres in the center
of the quarter. crossing the property
leased by the Los Angeles McKittrick
Both companies were drilling, the lat
ter claiming to be down about 400 feet
while the former claims that its well is
down between 800 and 600 feet
To further confuse matters, the Los
Angeles McKittrick company has sub
leased it's property to the Midway
Northern oil company, and 1t is said
that this company means to prosecute
work, taking over all the
machinery and the hole as it stands.
A few days ago the Consolidated Mid
way oil company served notice upon the
Los eles-McKittrick to vacate the
property, but this has not yet been
done

new SYNDICATE
Will PIPE GAS
Financiers Now Investigating
Field and Will Use Waste
Product

SANTA MARIA, May 10.--Advance
agents of syndicate of financiers have
been investigating the prospects for
natural gas in this field for the purpose
of establishing a large plant and for
piping the gas to towns and cities along
the coast. A great quantity of gas is
going to waste daily from the wells in
this part of the state.
Eugene j. Cantin ct al have decided
160 acres of land in section II, town
ship 8, range SO, to the Cantin land oil
and development company. and the
Fresno corporation will drill for oil
here.
L. E. Ensign and G. w. C. Baker have
leased a tract of 81 acres in the south
west corner of the rancho de Ia La

putting up two new rigs and are await
ing the arrival of the machinery, which
is already on the way. to start drilling.
Well 3S, at the southeastern part of
the Western Union lease, is down over
1000 feet. The work of deepening the
well was to get bigger flow of oil
and has proved successful, the produc-
ton being almost double what 1T used
to be. No. 40 has been on the beam for
the last two weeks and is developing
into producer of high grade oil
Two rigs have been put up by the
Palmer Annex and spudding in will be-
gin this week.

last well brought in by that company
has proved better than was predicted

BRITISH CAPITAL
ENLISTED FOR OIL
William Erb Will Garry Option
on Big Properties to Finan-
Ciers in London
Graham and LOTUS Producers
Are in Deal Which Promo
ter Takes Abroad

Bound on a mission to interest Eng
lish capital in oil lands in California,
William Erb, who has been connected
with gold mining enterprises In Ne
vada and more recently in oil producing
lands, will leave shortly for Europe
With Robert Cords Jr.. Erb obtained an
option last week upon the Graham and
LOTUS oil fields at Fullerton. These
properties are now producing and their
value is estimated at $2.000.0O0- Cords
may accompany Erb, but this has not
yet been decided The option runs six
months and the two investors paid
down a $4,000 deposit.
The idea OF seeking English capital
in the development Of the resources is
not an experiment. Particularly in the
gold fields of Nevada and more recent
ly in the oil lands has the money Of the
Britishers proved factor of great con-
sequence. The bankers of British Co
lumbia have invested heavily recently
in oil lands. and some years ago VIII
liam Graham Of Santa Barbara sue
ceeded in interesting a British syndi-
cate in oil properties in the southern
part OF the state which have been ex-
ceedingly fortunate investments.
Erb expects to leave for Europe with
in 10 days.

MIDWAY CENTRAL WILL
JOIN DIVIDEND PAYERS
Reported That Half a Cent Per
Share Is to Be Paid Monthly

According to the Oil Courier the Mid
way Central oil company will pay divi-
dends of half cept per share a month
and the first payment will be made
about the 25th of this month.
This company was organized the
fore part of March and purchased so
acres in the proved territory in the
McKittrick field and 40 in the North
Midway. where they have been operat-
ing
It is reported that nearly all the
earnings of the company in the Nc
Kittrick country will go into dividends.
4he estimated production for April is
about 1000 barrels.
Dividends would have been paid in
April but for the fact that there was
some controversy arising from a
change in ownership, and in conse-
quence the Midway Central received
payment for but 16 days production
in the month of March. which was in
SUFFICIENT to cover the first dividend.

THOROUGH TEST
NOW Under Way
Several Deep Wells Are Going
Down on Santa Barbara
Ventura Properties

Ventura advices state that active
development work in the district
around the Santa Barbara-Ve
county line will soon demonstrate
whether there is oil in that vicinity
and settle a question that has puzzled
many people for long time.
OF the three companies now drilling
the Rand consolidated oil company of
Los Angeles has sent its well down
1000 feet, where it has found consid-
cradle seepage of oil with heavy gas
pressure. For the last few days water
has caused trouble and work has been
stopped until the water can be shut off.
This company has a lease of 20 acres
on the Higgins ranch about a mile
from Carpfnteria and a quarter of a
mile from the beach,
TEST TO BE THOROUGH
The Denton oil company of San Fran
cisco, which is controlled by the Paraf-
fine paint company and which is op-
Grating on ,233 acre lease of the
Gutierrez ranch, just across the line
in Ventura county, has recently ex-
pended $4,000 in new equipment and
started a new 16 inch hole. This has
been put down $50 feet in two weeks,
and the company is prepared to go sew
eral thousand feet deep IN order to find
OuL pOSIIlNeiy WHAT OIL bearing quail
ties the land has.
This is the same lease which the
Channel oil company previously worked.
1t was obliged to abandon it's first well
at a depth of 800 feet on account of
its becoming clogged. A second well
reached 1000 feet. when there was a
very favorable seepage of oil, but much
trouble with water in this well forced
the company to give it up also.
The second well started by the Den
ton company is on higher ground than
the other two, being a mile and a
half from the beach and about quar-
ter of mile from the Casitas Pass
road, and 1t is believed that modern
equipment will enable it to combat sue
cessfully the trouble the former com
pany met with.
The Rincon oil company, which has
a 25 year lease on 400 acres of the
Rincon ranch, lying about four miles
from the beach and two miles from
the Denton oil company's property, was
recently reorganized
Thurston Daniels of Spokane, Wash,
was elected president and several Los
Angeles businessmen are associated
with him. The well is now down be-
tween ESQ and 800 feet, and is to be
pushed on as rapidly as possible. There
is gas pressure already and the sur
face indications are said to be good.

ity and has light green tinge. The
well is not far distant from the big

weeks ago.

CHARGE OF BROKERS
PREVENTS BIG SALE
Ten Per Cent Commission Com
sidered Too Much by Sellers

A dispatch from Coalinga says that
the sale of the w. K. oil company for
81 share, which has been pending for
some time. has fallen through. The
question of the commission to be paid.
it is reported, was the cause of the
failure of the sale to go through. The
brokers wanted 10 per cent. The own
ers of the property decline to pay that
much.
