Healdton Interesting Proposition.

The Healdton field presents a most
interesting proposition and is pointed
to as being Disseminated against, in
asmuch as oil is only bringing 80
cents per barrel.
The oil producers down that way
are certainly up against it, but de-
serve a good share of what they are
getting for the way in which they
handed it to the refinery at Ardmore,
where all the bunch reside.
Things have taken new turn and
everybody is now building storage,
and if this same storage oil does not
double in value, it will be the first
and only time in the history of the
oil game that it did not.
The McMan people. with $4,000 har'
rels daily production, are building
tanks and laying a line about six
miles long to connect with the field.
This concern will doubtless have as
much oil by mid-winter in the Head.

FIVE-DOLLAR RAISE
IN COTTON PRICES

New Orleans, La, Sept. 26.-The
cotton market made continuous ad-
vances last week, reaching new high
records for the season on both spots
and futures and closing So a bale
up. Trading was heavy and senti-
ment was bulllish
Buying was stimulated by extreme
ly unfavorable crop accounts and re-
ports of stiff advances in interior spot
markets. Many minor reactions in
terrupted the advances and at times
liquidation threatened to be domi-
mating influence. but new buying al
ways saved the market from wide.
slumps. The net change for the
week in the future market was a
gain of 9S to 1O1 points. At the high
est trading months were 80 to 1902
points over last weeks close. The
high prices were made on the week
end session.
Contributing to bullish feeling were

ton district as they now have in the
Cushing field.
The McMan line out of Gushing
was one of the big factors in taking
care of the surplus oil during the
over-production days and il it comes
to time when the McMan people
wish to sell their Healdton oil they
can easily lay a line to their tanks
and get rid of big pile of oil.
AS showing the way things are go
ing with this concern, the No. II
well in section 6-4-3, just completed,
started at 1000 barrels with $50 feet
of sand, and the No. 90 well in sec
ton 1888 started at 1900 barrels,
with the same thickness of sand.
In this connection it is said that
the McMan line is running about 90,
600 barrels every day from the Cush-
ing field, and is being operated at a
minimum expense and the big =rm
is turning down great orders for crude
every day, so great is the demand.
The oil is turned over to the Mag
nolia at Addington and the Magnolia
is crying for more, being fully aware
that there will be big demand for it
later on. With oil at so cents a bar
rel at this end, the McMau people
must be getting a nice price for Cush
ing crude.
After the first of the year the Nc
Man Oil company will occupy the en-
tire fifth floor of the Drew building
and will move the pipe line offices,
now occupied by Mr.. Halloran and
his assistants, up few stories.
The pipe line office is connected
to all five pumping stations and has
connections with the Magnolia at the
other end. This gives the McMan
people an opportunity to talk with
their men on the Electra leases, as
well as the boys at Healdton.
So little has been said about the
McMan Oil company's activities here
that it will be surprising to many
people right in Tulsa that SO much
business is being transacted by them
other than producing oil.
Next to having a line connected TO
one of our refineries, the next best
thing is the headquarters of pipe
line.-Tulsa Democrat.

made export movement would be
greatly stimulated
The spot department attracted un-
usual attention because interior mar
kets reported still higher prices than
here. With middling at IL cents on
Friday in this market, several points
in the belt, especially in Texas, te(e-
graphed that street buyers were pay
ing II cents middling basis.
The technical position of the mar
ket is the cause of much dispute and
not a few traders think that during
this week liquidation may be heavy
enough to Offset all bullish features.
On the other hand, those who are
working for still higher prices claim
that with spots in the interior actual
ly over seaboard prices, the position
of the bulls is unassailable.

REPORT FROM FOX.
6chaffer Well in Carter County Drill
ina at 600 Feet.

Fox, Okla, Sept. 27.-There have
been some prominent oil men hero
from Oklahoma City the past wees
trying to make a contract with tee
: Wildcat Jim Oil company to dr.l
three wells. The well belonging to
this company flowed about two hun
dred barrels one day last week.
A location has been made in sec
ton "a, 2 south and west, and there
has been contracts let for several
more wells.
Earl Athey, who has the contract
for j. NJ. Eastman in section 1922,
has spudded his well. This location
is three-fourths of a mile north Of
Wildcat Jim.
The Gypsy Oil company has struck
considerable gas in section 2S-2-3
They had about l 400 feet of water
in. the hole and the gas blew the
water and mud about 40 feet high
1t is not known just what the com
pany will do, but it is generally re-
garded that they have good indica'
tions for a we'll.
What is known as the Schaffer well
in section 2-3-3 is drilling at depth
of about 900 feet and has had some
good showings of gas.
The geologist who recently went
over this country states that in his
opinion Fox will have as good a field
as Healdton. He believes the Wild
cat Jim well is an edge well and that
the oil is dead, but when the main
pool is found that the oil will be
OF a much higher gravity.
NJ. T. Pierce has returned from a
business trip to Ardmore, and he
states that much interest is being
manifested there in the oil prospects
of the Fox country. Mr.. Pierce has
thirteen hundred acres of land 10
