MEXICAN OIL PRODUCTION
Carranza's News Bureau Says Lack OF
Ships Hamper IL.

WASHINGTON. Aug. "A state
ment i'm explanation Of the Mexican
oil situation from the Mexican point
OF view was ISSUED tonight by the
Mexican News Hureau. which is the
agency thru which the Cdrran2a gov
ernment makes its announcements in
this country.
There IS a widespread misunder-
standing" says the statement, re
garding the production and use Of
petroleum, as evidenced by many pub
lications upon the subject. Some
very interesting light Is thrown upon
the matter by the published hearings
before the senate committee on public
lands which were recently held and
during which the oil and coal ques-
tions We're discussed at length
"From statements made before the
committee IL appears that IL is a sur
prising fact that in both the English
and the American navies the fuel spe-
clficatOns now in force forbid the use
of Mexican oil. They distinctly pro-
vide that Mexican oil will not be ac-
copted' This prohibition was first
made by the English navy and was
followed by that of the United States.
The maner in which Mexican petro-
lcum goes into use In the British navy
is by having IL shipped TO the United
States. where It flows into a common
pool, after which it is shipped abroad
and supplied to the navy as the purely
American product.
THE fact was brought out that the
potential production Of the Mexican oil
fields was in round numbers 100000
barrels daily. but that because of lack
Of transportation facilities the actual
production was much less-less than
100000 barrels per week. Thus, the
IluaSteca Petroleum company. with n
potential capacity OF 10000 barrels

daily-that Is. with wells already
driven and able to produce that
amount, but shut downs only pro-
ducing $4,000 barrels, that being the
amount that can be exported.
1--WE are producing all we can
move" said the manager OF the com
pany. This applies to other com
panies as well Thore Is no difficulty
in getting the oil TO the coast, as the
wells are located at no great distance
from shipping points, and ali are pro-
vided with pipe lines. there being
something Ike 500 milos Of such fines
In the comparatively limited area I'm
which are included the greater num-
ber OF the producing wells OF the re-
public. Ocean, transportation is>the
difficulty. and this is being met by
the construction OF oi-carrying
steamers as rapidly az possible.

Why not? Thus she parleyed with
herself, one half of her minded to
stand upon her dignity, the other
part of her urging acquiescence in
his wish that was almost COM

just to see what he would do, but
she reconsidered that. Without any

she was shy of pitting her will
against Jack F'yfe's. Hitherto quite

Fyfe had it. 1t existed, a factor
with him. For within twenty min
utes she had packed a suit case full
of clothes and was embarked in his
rowboat.
He sent the lightly built craft
easily through the water with reg
ular, effortless strokes. Stella sat
in the stern, facing him. Out past
the north horn of the bay she broke
the silence that had fallen be-
tween them.
why did you make a point of
coming for me?" she asked bluntly.
F'yfe rested on his oars moment,
looking at her in his direct, unem-
barrassed way.
'I wintered once on the Stickine,"
he said. 'My partner pulled out be-
fore Christmas and never came
back. It was the first time I'd ever

off her hat and had a critical survey
of herself in mirror, after which
she had just time to brush her hair
before answering Mrs. Howe's call

The cup of tea resolved itself into
a we'll cooked and well served meal,
with china and linen and other un-
expected table accessories which
agreeably surprised her. Inevitably
she made comparisons, somewhat
tinctured with natural envy. If
Charlie would fix his place with a
few such household luxuries life
in their camp would be more nearly
bearable despite the long hours of
djsagreeahle work. AS it was-well

Stella sat gazing at the slow NOV
ing panorama of the lake shore, her
chin in her hand.
Thank you," she said at last
and very gently.
Fyfe looked at her a minute or
more, queer, half amused express
sion creeping into his eyes.
WELL" he said finally, "I might
as we'll tell the whole truth. I've
been thinking about you quite lot
lately, Miss Stella Benton, or
wouldn't have thought about you
getting lonesome"
He smiled ever so family, a mere
movement of the corners of his
mouth. at the pink flush which rose
quickly in her cheeks and then re-
sumed his steady pull at the oars.
Except for a greater number of
board shacks and a larger area of
stump and top Uttered waste i'm
mcdiately behind it, Fyfe's head
quarters, outwardly at least, differed
little from her brothers camp. Jack
led her to long log structure with
a shingle roof, which from its more
substantial appearance she judged
to be his personal domicile. A plump
smiling woman of forty greeted her
on the threshold. Once within,
Stella perceived that there was in
fact. considerable difference in Mr..
Fyfe's habitation. There was a great
stone fireplace, before which big
easy chairs invited restful lounging.
The floor was overlaid with thick
rugs which deadened her footballs.
With no pretense of ornamental
decoration, the room held an air of
homely comfort.
Come in here and lay off your

She showed Stella into bed

and cold water, neatly curtained
windows and a deep seated morris
chair. Certainly Fyfe's household
accommodation was far superior to
Charlie Benton's. Stella expected

Fashions of To-Day BY May Manton

Every variation of the over
skirt effect is fashionable. This
dress can be made with one
wide tuck in the skirt, as it is
here, or with two narrower ones
and both treatments suggest the
over-skirt idea. 1t is a very
graceful dress, very practical
dress and it is perfect for street
wear, while it is equally appro-
pirate for indoor use. 1t can be
made of charmeuse if something
very dressy is wanted or it can
be made of light weight serge
if a practical dress is wanted.
You can make the collar and
cuffs of a contrasting material
or of the same material embel-
lished with a little embroidery
or with a little braiding. Any
woman considering a useful cos
tune for between seasons and
early Autumn will find this
model of inestimable value.
Made of serge or of gabardine
it serves numberless uses. White
washable satin is much liked for
collars and cuffs on a dark dress
and practical women attach
them with snap fasteners.
For the medium size will be
needed, 6% yards of material
SO inches wide, 55s yards a.,
with % yard SO inches wide
for the collar and cuffs.
The pattern No. o5o7 is cut
in sizes from 81 to az inches
