advance of cents barrel over the
returns for June and the highest price
received in more than two years. Sales
in July amounted to So per cent of the
oil delivered during the month.
1t is not expected that the August
price will reach the. July level, for it
is certain that the sales were smaller
last month, or the order to reduce
daily runs would4 not have been sent
out. The obvious decrease in sales
demonstrates that marketing condi-
tions were affected by other things be-
sides the presence of hostile warshlps
IN the Pacific.
1t has been stated that surplus funds
amounting to the sum of 5000, 900 will
be distributed among the members of
the agency shortly. This money repre-
sents an accumulation over and above
expenses during 1915 The distribu-
ton may have been decided upon at
this time to offset the loss entailed by
the decreased demand for fuel oil,
which is all that the agency handles.
The distribution, if it is made, will be
based on past production.
Mascot Stops Production.
The Mascot Oil Company, which. was
obliged to pass its monthly dividend
last month, has shut down its thirty
eight wells in the Midway field. The
Mascot production is all fuel, and in
stopping production the management
acted on the belief that it was better
to allow the oil foreman In the ground
than to take it out when the narket.

company has not been operating its
Midway property to full capacity of
late, owing to the falling off in the
demand for fuel. All of the company s
production has been going to the Union
OH Company.
Doheny on Conditions.
President E. i. Doheny of the Mexi.
can Petroleum Company, who recently
returned to the Coast from the East,
states that the oil situation in the Fast
crn states continues unfayorable, with
no immediate prospect of Improvement.
While Doheny is optimistic as to the
future OF the oil business, he believes
that something must be done toward
reducing surplus stocks in this country

NAL conditions can be expected. Do
beny agrees that the present depres
sion is due principally to the Europe
an war, but he maintains that over
production is almost as great a factor
in the situation as the sudden stoppage
of exports.
1t is. believed that the Mexican Pc
troleum, Company has abandoned for
the present the project of erecting
large refinery with adequate storage ia

which would be accessible to the CON-
tank steamers.

An important point about the Cali
lcian fields is that they lie within a
comparatively short distance of the
Russian frontier. This district is par
ticularly wen fortified. It is, there
fore, a matter for the military expert
rather than for one experienced in the
petroleum industry to say how far
these fields are subject to the risk Of
Russian invasion. So far as Germany
il concerned we have only to deal with
an oil industry on a comparatively
small scale, producing from 10000 to
10000 tons of crude oil per annum.

would be a further eomplieating factor

European Oil Supply.
Mail advices from London say that
many experts have been at work get
ting out figures and facts with regard
to European oil supplies and the war
situation. One of the most interesting
of these surveys starts by comparing
the production of crude oil in the four
European oil-produeing countries, eth
.e1 directly or indirectly concerned. The
production in these countries last year
was as follows:
Russia, 9,325,s94 tons; Roumania, l.
sS5,3s4 tons; Austria EGalieia), 1857
ESQ tons; Germany (estimate), 100000
tens Up to June this year Russia,
which has the largest production--far
exceeding that of the other three coune
tries put together--wR rs producing at
about the same rate as last year.
There had been somewhat of a decline
in the output of the oilfeIds of the
Baku district, but this was counterbal-
aneed by an increase in the Crosby
production and also in that Of the Uraf

who went up 10 the coast by the same
transport on which Lieutenant Hoff-
man and his mother were passengers
and gave no details other than that
Mrs. Hoffman's death occurred only
two days after the arrival of the
transport at San Francisco. While it
was known at the time of her depart
ure from Fort Shafter that Mrs. Hoff-
mans condition of health was most
critical it was not surmised that the
end was so near at hand. Mrs. Hoff-
man, as the wife of an army officer,

who will extend to Lieutenant Hoff-
man their deepest sympathy in his
loss. She will be particularly re-

the older days with the 18th Infantry
in Arizona and New Mexico, when, as
the wife of Captain and later Major
