1t has been stated that at the meet
ing that was held at the request of
Mr.. Henshaw during the hearing to
consider the establishment of a per-
manent differential between Heald-
ton and Cushing crudes, met with a
divided house. Some did not want
to admit any difference, others were
willing to accept a compromise on a
10 per cent difference, after several
hours of consideration an agreement
was finally reached by a small majori-
ty to present 20 per cent differential.
1t seems that the producers had more
difficulty in reaching an agreement
on this subject than any that has con-
fronted them.

| however, that the feet will be able
| to render untenable German occu-
patton of any part of the Belgian
or French coasts, The opinion is
also expressed here that the oper..
ations of the allied vessels in the
North sea off the Belgian coast in
the vicinity of the straits of Dover
may cause the German fleet to come
out and give battle.
In naval circles it is considered
that the German submarines, al
though they have proved deadly to
ships steaming slowly, will not be so
effective against ships steaming and
maneuvering at high speed and in
shallow waters, as the British mon
itors and their auxiliaries have been
doing.
There is some talk of the Ger
mans bringing their big forty two
teHlilltleI guns 10 Ine coast 10 use
against the allies warships, but the
British sailors are credited with say
ing that their vessels can prevent
these guns being put in position.
They claimed that even if they
should be mounted, they will not be
SO deadly against a fast moving tar
get as they were against the sta
tionary forts, which they destroyed
so easily
While this life and death struggle
is going on in the west the French
have become more active in the east
along the Alsatian border and are
said to be making preparations and
securing advanced positions in view
of possible attacks by the Germans
with their big howitzers on the
Belfort fortress. 1t now seems to be
realized that no fortress has any
chance of holding out when once
these big German guns are brought
into action against it.

A shipment of line pipe for the
oil pipe line to be built from Hcald-
ton to Oil City has been received
and men are busy today stringing
the pipe for the line. Men will be
engaged at once in digging the ditch
in which to bury the pipe. This line
will be used to convey oil from the
Healdton field to the plant of the
Ardmore Refining company. which is
now in process of construction here.
Local producers are cooperating
with the refinery people, and it is
believed that some means will be
found to relieve the company from
the burden of pro rating the runs
throughout the field. A rough esti-
mate of the cost of building a system
of gravity lines in the field places
the cost at $4,000 which is more
than the cost would be to build a
four-inch line from the field to the
railroad The majority OF the pro-
ducers are interested in Ardmore as
well as in the field, and they state
that they will not get in the way of
enterprises that contribute toward
the growth of Ardmore.

Now that the producers have sue
ceeded in conserving the production
in the Healdton field, would it not be a
wise step for them to organize a

ing a market for surplus oil rather
than have each producer go out and
seek a market for his own production?

is NO NEED TO WORRY
Inconvenience Not Expected to Last
for Any Length Of Time-Peo-
Pile Generally Well
Supplied.

A temporary coal snortage--nothlns
to prove serious, or likely to last any
length of time--is another OF the joys
which local people are facing, now
that winter has decided to take "a
other notch in his belt and stick
around while longer. Coal dealers
OF the city do not believe the short
age will be of any duration, but it
will be unpleasant while it lasts.
Attempts to get coal for the last
two or three days, by people who
have run out, have proved unsucelsss-
full for the most part. The dealers
haven't the commodity to sell, is the
reason for this failure. One carloaC
was brought into the city last Friday,
but it was quickly parcelled out to
thoss who had their orders in first.
One of the dealers last night ex-
planned the reason for the shortage.
The cars have been tied up by the
storm of the first of tha week. Keo
kuk suffered severely from the storm
and traffic through other territory
was badly demoralized, even more SO
than traffic in this vicinity. 1t is on
account of this, that the dealers ara
short in their orders. The coal has
left the mines, but the cars have been
laid out by the storms and the coal
is delayed in shipment.
Other dealers in the city corrobor-
ated this statement, an0, made 1t plain
that the traffic delays were only tenn
porary and that while some inconvan-
fence was being caused those who
were minus fuel, still there was little
reason fer any worry. AS soon as
! the railroa Is get Strengthened out the
shipments will come through without
any trouble.
For the most part it Is understood
that people are well supplied with
coal. The county's poor are taken
care of and there will be enough coal
| brought in from now on, until rail-
roads are in normal condition again
to handle any urgent orders, it is be
/ lieved. The coal men do not seem
to be worried over the outlook, ant
expgct to have their shipments in as
usual during the week. A number o,
householders who have been in
search of coal have been worried by
their inability TO gst that commodity
