OIL MARKET QUOTATIONS
The Kansas Cify
BANQUET

The get-together meeting at Kansas
city Tuesday night IL now matter
of history and everybody In the oil
field Is discussing its effect and the
probable outcome OF the truce which
has been declared for the duration
OF the war between the Standard aud
the Independent fellows.
So long as the war lasts IL is very
evident that the entente will hold fas
and there will be united action and
all Will honestly and courageously

larger supply OF oil
That the cordial relations between
the Independent and Standard will not
last after peace Is declared Is certain.

the opposition manifested on all sides
TO government control OF the oil sit
uation.
Mr.. Grant holds the most eA
tremc views uf any man In any way
connected with the oil business and
says that he is In favor OF "A permanent
petroleum board which will have the
power To set the price for everything
pertaining to OIL from crude TO the re-
fined product MIR Grant saws that
the Standard has been running things
for forty years. and why not let an

IT was pointed out by men VA,

the Kansas City meeting that never
has the oil business been In such
good shape as now and that any gov
ernment Interference was bound TO

believe that something along this line

the government may not do anything
Of the kind, and may leave we'll

A Federal Decision
of Interest

The federal court mas granted All 1T.
| Junction In the case known as the Du-
! luth oklahoma vs.. Jack Love and 9TH
ers, wherein the oil cornpany has
asked for and obtained an order re-
stiaining the corporation from inter
fering In any way with its well In the
heart of the Blackwell field. which
is making about 5000, 900 feet OF gas
and 400 barrels OF oil. This decision
has been due for long time and was
certain OF being rendered just AS soon
as the matter reached "a court of COM
rctent Jurisdiction.
The same thing happened tu t.iv
state board IN Indiana when It sought
10 prevent farmer and an oil firm
from letting gas 20 TO waste. which
necessary, as I'm this instance.
Mcssrs Rice and Lyons, attorneys
OF Tulsa deserve credit for having
won the above described decision.
There has been too much foolishness
In the attempt made by politicians in
oklahoma TO run things and the law
Ners mentioned above are deserving
OF great dit for taking the matter
70 the proper court.
Another case which has been under
way for some time has been settled,

Of leases on undeveloped stuff to ac-
pauy TO replus a well north of

ing lot OF salt water which polluted
the streams and which impregnated
the wafer sent for miles around so
that there was no chance to get good

water was not polluted and no gas
escaped from the well and the only
Inference 10 be drawn is that the par

the Kansas Natural now hope To get

deeper for general results.
There has been too mrch of this
