Selling the Muridnd
Stock Short

Mecause of the fact that T.. w
Nnrland has made an offer to store
oil for oil producers who do not care
TO built tankage for their own use,
his stock was made the object OF an
attack on the stock Exchange yes-
lerdny, which is the way big people
are playing the game these days.
There IN no stock on the entire list
that il more likely TO continue 70
pay dividends than Marland's, and
every man in the Mid-Contlnent
field with a particle OF red blood In
his veins will resent this sort OF
tactics.
Marland has simply offered to do
what the pipelines are doing. and
have been doing for many years In
PENNSYLVANIA: and he is entitled 10
the greatest credit for his patriotic
action. His offer To store oil was n
vertiable bomb IN the meeting that
otherwise was real nice affair.
ana properly censored by the big
people here.
For the above information In re-
gard 70 the attack made on Marland
stock, we are indebted to a closing
stock letter received by Houston

NEW YORK, Aug. 15.-Mid-Con-

new drilling means recent reduction
in crude oil prices have accomp-
llshcd their object. Crude oil has
been cut from 81 barrel to S1.25
and IL produceij stick to resolution
to cut down production another cut
In prices may not be necessary. Pc
troleum outlook Is brighter than II
has been at any time since the first
cut of 20 cents was made In crude.
Coal and rail strikes have resulted
in further big jump In fuel oil and
gasoline consumption. Many indus
tries have turned from coal TO fuel
oil at time when Mexican produc-
ton IL at low ebb. Gasoline con-
sumption thu month is'cNpccted TO
establish new high records.
Prospect of settlement Of coal
strike on a basis that will mean high
prices for another year ut least Is
having n stimulating effect on fuel
oil market Coal and oil compete
directly as fuel and choice of either
is "a matter OF price. At present
advantage is all In favor OF oil. Fuel
oil Is selling In New York harbor at
S1.5I a barrel whereas coal Is quot
ed at $l1 TO S11.5O 4. o. b. pier sta
tion. -Four barrels fuel oil are
equivalent TO one ton of coal, so ad-
vantage of oil Is obvious. There Is
reason 10 believe price OF fuel oil
will advance. In certain lines ad.
vantage of oil over coal is such that
it IL used regardless OF price, such
as bunkcring the big transatlantic
IincrJ and in cotton wooden. None
! of the large fuel oil sellers are dis
posed TO make contracts for deliv-
cries of oil for longer period than
six months despite recent advance of
