OIL MARKET QUOTATIONS..
Among the Lire Ones

1t looks as though many Of the
best operators are going o-forego a
vacation this summer Business is too
good and now that the weather has
gone on its good behavior, the out
look is not so bad for the man who
must stay at home.
When the Gushing field was young
some of the big people stayed on the
job during the hottest suRmer ever
experienced here and made Il pile of
money. The chances are good for a
repetition of that feat right now as
never was the outlook any better.
Good wells at Billings, Yale, Jen-
nings, Bald Hill and Bixby, not TO
mention the Butler county fields,
make it almost imperative to stick on
the job. But there are others who
are taking short vacations and among
them are the following:
j. f. Crosbie and George Davis are

Coldstream farm, which is Mr.. Shaf-

Tn the Soufh End.

One and three-tenths inches OF rain
fell last night and the rain was ac-
companied by much lightning. Two
oil tanks are burning in the field and
the Ardmore refinery is also losing a
tank. One of the burning field tanks
belongs to to the Harris Strawn Oil
company. and n small tank burning
belongs to the Magnolia Petroleum
company.
Tho oil City district reports a nice
completion today. The Black Eagle
oil company on the Ledbetter farm
in the northwest quarter of 223-2

and drilled out of it at 97S. The sand

water and the owners express the
opinion that 1t will make 100 barrels.

Harry Aggers, field superintendent
of the Midco Petroleum company. is
IN the city and reports that the Bill
llngs field is looking up these days.
He says that the Humphreys Petrole-
um company well in 15-23-2w is like
ly to make as good a well as the
Midco we'll on the Brumfeld or per-
haps better.
The top of the sand was found at
1914 feet and is probably a stray
sand as the Midco people had this
sand at about 1880 feet in the Brum-
field an1 Hoover wells. AS the Hum
phreys well is located just right, geo
logically, it Ought to make the best
well over there.

Ing operations are being carried on
the same as before the men walked
out.
The places of strikers who have
failed to return to work have all been
filled with other men. Friday evening
the mon exhibited willingness to re-
turn to work, but yesterday morning
when time came to work they de-
manded that all strikebreakers he
ousted from the camp, and this the
company refused to do. giving as their
reply that there was no discrimination
toward either faction and that those
desiring to return to work would be
put back on the job as their former
positions were vacated by those now
on the Job.
In all about one hundred men

Sinclair Building Fest

II Is to go away from home to hear
the news For intsance, but few peo-
pie know that the Sinclair refinery at
Whiting, Ind, is well under way and
will be doning business by November
!. If all goes well.
1t is attracting world of attention
not only for the rapid strides it is
making toward completion but also
because of the nerve displayed by Mr..
Sinclair in locating alongside of the
plant OF the big monopoly. 1t is point
ed out that there can be no freight
rates enjoyed by the Standard tnat
arc not participated in by the SIN
clair people
The same thing is true In regard TO
the line now building along the right
of-way of the Santa Fe and every
thing indicates early completion.
Pump stations are being erected, five
gangs of men are laying pipe and
tanks are already built ut each
station.
The same firm Is testing much OF
its line to Kansas City and ought 10
be running oil thru same by the mid
die of August and has plenty of stor-
age room at the refinery at Argen-
tine and will he run,ping the plant as
soon as the line is in operation.
.. If Mr. Sinclair is having any
trouble buying pipe It will be for his
Gulf line and not In this country. II
is even reported that he is intendins
to begin a new S-inch line from Ell
dorado at once and will connect with
the main line to Kansas City. which
together with the Prairie new line
will take care of production over
there. y
The name of Tulsa is a very IA
miliar one now adays and wherever
men congregate who are interested in
either the production of oil or the
consumption thereof. Tulsa Is talked
| about rs being the center of the mid
continent field and naturally the cen
| ter of the source of supply.
1t Is easily living up to its reputa-
ton

The two Gillespie wells on the
Hackott ana McCaughry farms are
making 100 barrels each, according to
Mr.. Aggers, which is better than was
generally supposed and adds greatly
to the general outlook over there.
"Our Berry well in 27-232w Is
drilling at 1898 feet and should get
the Blackwell sand at about 3,i00
feet, and We are rigging up on Hoover
