duccd the price on gasoline from one 10
two cents in the states Of Indiana, Iowa,
North and South Dakota, Tennessee, Mis-.
souri,, Illinois.
This decline In price is due to the
fact that the expectation demands for
gasoline have almost entirely stopped,
and also because the great increase in
crude OIL which produces Il high gaso.
line content, has caused large increase
in the production Of the latter oil.
The rcdcemmg feature Is that the
Standard oil Company raised the price
of Kerosene one cent a gallon. The
shortage Of Kerosene at the present time
is due to the large expectation demands.
The prices of fuel oil continue TO de.
cline, there being practically no demand
whatever, and rehners, in order TO sell
fuel oil are compelled To take any price
they are offered. The outlook for the
future is not exceptionally bright at the
present time, however. the signing of
