OUTPUT Of PETROLEUM
IN US. IHEPAST YEAR
Total of 290, ,312, ,535 Barrels Shown
by Statistics Gathered in
the States.

There were 2so.s12.535 barrels of Pc
troleum produced in this country last
year. OF this amount 2s5.762.535 bar
rels were either marketed or were
utilized directly in field development.
and 24.55o.000 barrels were placed in
producers field storage to meet further
requirements.
Producers storage. particularly in
Oklahoma and California, attained
proportions so great and exercised SO
marked an effect on the industry dur
ing the year that the data on the sub
ject have been included as an index to
the market fluctuations of the year.
Voluntary Reports Compiled.
These statistics, which differ as to
total above-ground production by less
than per cent from the estimate made
public by the survey January 1, are
the result of a careful compilation Of
voluntary reports received from more
than 10000 producing, transporting and
purchasing companies engaged in ham
ding petroleum in the United States.
With reference to the marked produc-
tion the final returns show an increase
of 17.31s.305 barrels. representing an
increase of nearly Z per cent over the
corresponding production in 1918.
The average price per barrel re-
ceived for this was s0.sos in 1914. as
compared with s0.S54 in 1918, and the
total value of the marketed oil was
s214.125.215. showing loss of s23. 3.00S.-
173 in value, compared with the previ-
Gus year.
No Change in State Rank.
No important changes were made in
the rank of the oil-producing states In
1914. though the enormous output of
the prolific Cushing pool in Oklahoma
made that state a strong contender for
first place, which was. however, re-
tanned by California by the fair mar
gin of about 10000 900 barrels Wyo-
ming showed the greatest relative in
crease in oil production during the
year. exceeding it's record output in
1918 by nearly As per cent. though fail
ing to gain thereby a rank above that
attained in 1913, namely. ninth The
greatest relative decline took place in
West Virginia. which recorded a de-
crease of Is per cent below the output
of 1918.

Marked Differences in Sugar.

Sugar prices showed marked differ
ences resulting from the war In differ
ent localities. In France the best
sugar beet fields lie in the northern
parts, which were early invaded, and
as a result the price of sugar rose
sharply. Germany and Russia are
sugar exporting countries, and in Ber-
lin and Moscow sugar showed little
change in price. England imports it's
entire supply, and in London the price
rose 20 per cent. Turkey usually i'm
ports her sugar from Russia and, from
Austria. The Russian supply was shut
off altogether when Turkey entered
the war, and the Austrian supply was
reduced to what could be brought
through by rail, very uncertain de-
pendence.

ures to check the rise in cost of neces-
saries were very generally taken

Russia, Spain and Turkey prohibited
France, Norway and Sweden listed GER
tain articles which must not be ex-

Fixing maximum prices, especially for

The methods adopted for fixing prices
differed considerably. In France, Ger

WANTS NEUTRALS TO
ENFORCE THEIR RIGHTS
Senator Hoke Smith Makes a Sharp
Attack on England s Action
Toward Shipping

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10. = Senator
Hoke Smith of Georgia, in an address
in the senate today, called upon con
gress to insist that Great Britain cease
her interference with neutral commerce.
He declared that the protests by the
American state department had been
met by increased lawlessness and
trampling upon neutral rights. The
United States with other nations,
should demand from Great Britain that
disregard of their rights cease. 1t may
be necessary for the United States ane
! other neutrals to let Great Britain un
derstand that "no word or act vii
be omitted to enforce their rights

pporting the very character of goods

/ States to neutral European ports.

Arthur Adshad. who pleaded guilty
last week to charge OF assault and
who had since been in Newfane jail
awaiting sentence, was brought here
this afternoon and sentenced by Judge
F. E. Barber to not less than four
months nor more than five months IN
the house of correction.
Joseph and Miner Adshad, who were
arrested Saturday morning on charges
of furnishing liquor, were discharged
yesterday afternoon by Judge T. f.
o 'Brien after State s Attorney o. B..
Hughes had noll pressed the cases
against them.
The two men were wanted by Police
Chief Manning of Greenfield, Mass, for
obtaining goods there under false pre-
| lenses when the charges of illegal fur
nishing of liquor were preferred against
| them, but they settled their obligations
in Greenfield and the Vermont authori-
ties had no charges which they could
prove against them.

CLARK NOT GUILTY
OF SELLING LIQUOR
Jury Out 10 Minutes After Sitting All
Day-Responden Was Not Called
Upon to Testify.

After an absence from the municipal
court room of 10 minutes yesterday af-
ternoon the jury which yesterday heard
the case of the state against William
A. Clark for illegal furnishing of liq-
nor returned verdict of not guilty.
He was discharged from custody.
The state s case was concluded yester-
day at the morning session with the ex-
ception of the testimony of Miner
Adshad, one of the three broth
ers who had given information
against the respondent. He testi-
fed at the afternoon session of the
court that he had been with his broth
er, Arthur, when he made purchase
of liquor from Clark.
Attorney E. w. Gibson, who con-
Quoted the defense was satisfied not to
put the respondent on the stand. His
principal witnesses were the wife of
the respondent, who swore that there
had been no keeping of liquor in their
home; Clark 's sister, Mrs. Daisy Jones
of Greenfield, Mass, and her husband
Mrs. Jones testified that Clark went to
her home in Greenfield last Friday and
got some children s clothing she had
been making for Mrs. Clark. Her hus
band corroborated her testimony. Har-
old Evans, hack driver, testified that
he carried Clark from the evening
train to his home. This testimony
was TO offset that of some of the
state : witnesses, who had testified
that Clark had gone to Greenfield that
day and had told them he would have
liquor when he returned
Thomas Doyle testified to having
seen Arthur Adshad on the street that
evening and that he was intoxicated
Police Chief George Wilson, in rebut
tai, testified that Adshad was sober al
that time in the evening.
The arguments were made and ths
case given to the jury just before
'clock.
