The affair." which would doubtless
have resulted in a ragedy but for the

was caused by Rosick's attention to a

Preliminary Plans Indicate Sc

Interest Than Other
MAY SELL BONDS IN EUROPE

Further steps preliminary to the
building of the California Arizona pipe
line await the report of two agents OF
the company, who are now in the field
gathering data regarding present ana
prospective markets to be supplied
with oil and physical conditions to be
met in the building of the lines. All
this information is in the hands OF tne
promoters of the undertaking in a
ractically complete form, but the
agents Will check 1t over from first
hand sources and compile 1t in con-
venient form for the inspection OF the
directors of the pipe line company ana
any others who may become financially
interested in the work as purchasers OF
bonds or otherwise. This report prob
ably will be delivered to the directors
of the company at Los Angeles about
the middle of next week, and there
after the plans for the pipe line VIII
begin to take more definite form.
Probably the pipe line will be built
from the proceeds Of bonds sold In the
east or in Europe. 1t is planned to
make the bonds pay a rather larger
rate of interest than those of the Pro-
ducers' Transportation company. and
with the assurance of a sufficient SUP
ply of oil to be transported for term
of years and also with an ample mar
ket for the oil in sight, 1t Is believed
there will be no difficulty In placing
them. The route of the line has not
been decided upon except that 1t prob
ably will follow the Santa Fe railroad
in a general way.
Regarding the market at the Ari-
zona end, l.. +. st. Clair says the inn
mediate demand will be 10000 barrels
a day, and this amount can be at once
extended to 20, 600 barrels, or about tha
capacity of an S-lnch line when the
line is completed. These figures are
for commercial oil and do not include
any oil that may be sold to the Santa
Fe or to the railroads Of Western
Mexico, IL the line is extended into thai
country.
If oil is sold TO the Mexican roads
the Mexican duty on oil must be re-
moved. and no movement has yet been
made toward that end, Regarding the
sale of oil to the Santa Fe Mr.. st.
