Oklahoma City, Jan. &C. W. Ca
hun of st. Louis, vice-president of
the Pierce Oil corporation, is in Ok
lahoma City in conference with Bur
well, Crockett & Johnson, Oklahoma
attorneys for the Pierce corporation.
1t is understood his visit here is in
connection with the reported plans of
his company for building pipe line
into the Healdton oil field, though this
could not be confirmed. Mr.. Cahun
has been here several days and prob
ably will remain the rest of the week.
1t has been reported for some time
from apparntly authentic sources tnat
the company was negotiating to enter
the Healdton district and the pres
ence in Oklahoma of Mr.. Cahun has
added new interest to that report.
The Pierce Oil corporation owns and
operates a refinery at San Springs,
Okla. The Pierce-Fordyce Oil asso-
citation, which Is an auxiliary OF the
Pierce Oil corporation, owns refner-
les at Texas City and Fort Worth.
The contemplated line to the Healdton
field will connect with these two re-
fneries.
1t is also reported that the Texas
Company contemplates building a line
to the Healdton field. This report
arose from the fact that the company
recently purchased a large amount
of Healdton storage oil.

THE AUTOMOBILE LICENSE
Total Of t43,55o Registered in Michi-
gan and s,1s5 Motorcycle
Licenses Issued.

Lansing.-There is every indication
now that the year 1916 will set big
record for the state registration OF
autos. When the licenses were first
ordered a year ago the state officials
figured that 10000 would cover al
that would be needed. Up to Septem-
Der 1, according to figures comuiled
ty Secretary Of State Vaughn, there
were 143,550 machines licensed. and
he expects that the total will reach
100000 by January l. The September
registration will be heavy owing to
the fact that licenses are now given
for one half the original price. OF
the 14S.55O cars registered 1916 are
commercial cars or trucks and 1885,
354 pleasure cars. Of this number
800 licenses we're is ned TO non
residents. There were also registered
$50 manufacturers and dealers; 1885,
motorcycles and 9,7S7 chauffeurs.
