OIL CONFLICT IS
 NEARING AN END

Vienna, December 22.-The long con- tinued conflict between the Galician re- liners and the Vacuum Oil company, an American organization, is believed to be nearing an end and is likely to result in a victory for the Americans. The meas ures adopted by the government against the Vacuum company has compelled it to shut down its refineries and stop buy ing crude oil.
 The producers of crude oil, fearful of losing their biggest customer, have now the oppressive measures against the American company. It is understood that the ministry of finance is willing to ac- cede to this request and a final settle ment of the difficulties Is expected before tho end of the year.
 Mark H. Davis, the commercial adviser of the state department at Washington, proceeded early in November to Vienna and consulted with the American ambas- eador, Richard c. Kerens. on the contro- yersy between the Austrian government and the Vacuum Oil company. More re- gently the Austrian foreign office de- clined to continue negotiations with the American embassy, which had entered protest against the alleged discrimination by the government against the company.
 The foreign office maintained that the question at issue was purely a matter for Austrian internal administration and ab- soiutely outside of diplomacy.
