Situations is Relieved
By Shipments Of Oil

From 5000 to 5000 barrels of
oil are being shipped to Calgary
every week. but that will not re-
lieve the situation to any extent
as the production is that much
every day, altho an accurate es-
innate cannot be given as the
various producing wells have
never been permitted to flow at
capicity.
The California company has
turned very little oil into the
pipe lines and several other COM
panies having producers have
never used any oil except for fuel.
The tank farm of the Calgary
plant is almost complete a n d
ready to be filled altho the refin-
cry will require several weeks to
comrlete. The big $4,000 barrel
tank being built by the Ohio Oil
company near Sunburst, will be
completed next week and that
will care for the production of
the field until the oil moves fas-
ter from the loading racks,

Black Magic, it being one-quart-
er mile south of the latter well.
Freeman and Marble, drilling
contractors of the MIDI Continent

the contract and expect to COM
plete the we'll in 20 days. A
standard rig is being used, and
with the we'll cleaned out drill
ing is going ahead rapidly.
The Holding & Royalty purch-

Montana Giant is
Reported Good Well
Seterol New Compilations are
Expected Within the Next
Few Days

The Montana-Giant, drilling in
3O-35-2, came into production the
first of the week at depth Of
l475 feet. 1t is not known yet
what the production will be, but
several people who have been 1t
the well say that it is 4 good one.
This well is an offset to the Joe
Baker-Rist well on the southeast
which is reported to be a water
well. The Baker well will be shot
to see if production can be OBJ
tanned.
The Queen City, drilling in 32-
35-2, is now drilling below 1900
feet and are expected to reach
the pay either the last of this
week or the first of next. It is
looked forward to, as being a
good well, as it is only a short
distance to the northwest of the
Shoshone we'll which recently
came in and reported to be one
of the best in the field.
The Black Raven, 36-35-3 W,
is expected to be shot today. At
first this was reported to be a
good well, but after reaching the
sand drilling was resumed and
water was reached. The hole has
been cemented back to the first
sand, and it is expected that shot
will make this q commercial well.
The California No. 2, q direct
offset to the east of the Lincoln
well, 1882, haye completed
their fishing job of several days
and are now down z good depth.
This well will be looked forward
to as the next completion on the
west side, and barring all trouble
should be completed in a few
lays.
The Montana-Sweet Grass-Mc-
Donald in 20-35-2w, was shot the
irst of the week to destroy cas-
ng which had stuck in the hole,
With the results that it now is a
10 or so barrel well. The finding

lead to other wells be-
ng shot in this formatian.

canvass OF nunDor OIL CLUES
in Montana by G. w. Anderson
| deputy state insurance commits
sioner, has disclosed that many
indiyuals are, through ignorance
Of the law, dealing in oil lands
| leases and royalties without hav-
ing procured proper real estate
| licenses. In the older oil centers,
Mr.. Anderson has found a con-
siderable number O f concerns
operating in violation of the law,
he stated upon his arrival in
Great Falls Wednesday, and in
nearly every instance the viola
tion was due to ignorance of the
statute.
| Mr.. Anderson met with the
Great Falls Realty board at the
weekly meeting Of that organi-
zation Wednerday and in a brief
talk described the workings Of
the real estate license law and
the necessity of an oil broker ap-
plying for the required permit.
Twenty three licenses have been
issued in Shelby and 81 in Great
Falls, he told the real estate men,
a number which he considered
small as compared with oil activi-
ties being carried on in each of
these cities. A small newspaper
notice in Lewistown recently.
brought in number Of applica-
tions from Winnett men who had
not previously known that real
estate license law was operative
in Montana.
Several grave questios arise
in connection with any oil deal
made by an unlicensed firm or
individual" Mr.. Anderson said.
Additional to the law violation
on the part Of the operator, there
is the matter Of a possible cloud
on the title of property transferr-
ed. 1t must be remembered chat
the Montana real estate license
law has never been interpreted,
either in an opinion by the at
torney general or supreme
court decision. Many authorities
consider it quite possible that a
transfer negotiated by an unli-
censed dealer is not valid. If this |
should prove to be the case.
many persons who have purchas-
ed oil properties in good faith
would be losers in an aggregate
amount that would be very large.
Sections of the Montana real
estate license law especially call
ed to the attention of oil property /
dealers are as follows:
"A real estate broker, within
the meaning Of this act, is a per-
son who for a compensation or
promise thereof, sells or offers
for sale, buys, or offers to buy,
negotiates, or offers to negotiate,

HARMONY PASSERS TO
give AMBOYS BATTLE.

the past several weeks preparing
for this contest, and Manager Davis
expects to have an easy time regis
tering victory over his former
teammates. Willie Marion, the
shooting wonder of the Amboy line
up for a time last season, also is
a member of the Harmony quintet.
The Mt. Vernon basketeer is count
ing on scoring big against Hansen
or Sehwankert, the local guards.
Spunberg, one of the visitors
guards, is another shooting" fool.
His work from the floor was mainly
responsible for a Speedway defeat
on the Auditorium court two sea-
sons ago. In this contest he found
a spot near the center of the floor
and kept "pegging" all night, until
he had tailed about a half dozen
baskets.
There has been considerable talk
about the leaping ability of Davis
and Pete Eggers, and the jump at
center will go a great way toward
deciding the tilt. Davis had the
better of a duel with the Amboy
pivot man in a recent game on the
st. Mary Lyceum court between the
st. Mary Speedways and the Town
send Five, of North Jersey.
With Marion and Finn in the adj
vanced positions, and Gordon and
Spunberg in the backfield, Davis
will be we'll supported. The local
boys surely will have their hands
full. The local moguls anticipate
the most interesting game to date.
Out for Revenge
In addition to showing the fans
that this years team is better than
last, the Amboy passers are also de-
sirous of making up for their set
back at the hands of the Common
wealth Big Five, on the latter's New
York City court This was the first
defeat suffered by the local combina-
ton since organization.
Chuck Solador will call ''play''
at about $3.50 o'clock tonight and
then the fans will sit back for forty
minutes of sensational play.
The italian Catholic Club, of New
York City, is the only team credited
with victory over the locals on
the New Brunswick avenue floor this
campaign.

.SEMI-FINAL FIGHTERS
SUCCEED IN "HOLDOUT"

1t was made known following the
fights in the Auditorium last night
that the promoter had been held
up" by the boxers scheduled to go on
in the special four round contest
and before they would agree to go on
the promoter had to add $3.50 to the
amount their contract originally
called for.
From the time the first bout was
put on the big throng of fans kept
calling for "Panny" and the negro,
and when the two men entered the
ring for the semi-final contest the
house was in an uproar. "Panny"
had to discard his five ounce gloves
after entering the ring, the rules
calling for eight ounce mitts. The
referee ordered the change after his
attention had been called to the
matter.
McNulty stopped the bout in the
third round when he thought the
little Italian had received enough
punishment. The game has often
been injured by referees failure
to check a contest in time and Nc
Nulty surely is working to make the
fistic sport go here.
Everyone in the Auditorium last
night. was interested in the bouts
with the exception of Barney Toolan,
who remained in a corner of the hall
explaining to one of his chauffeurs
the various pointers in his favorite
sport, shooting.

So. Amboy High School Boys
Badly Beaten Yesterday
Afternoon

SOUTH AMBOY, Nov. 1O.---The
South Amboy high school team is
going. back instead of coming ahead.
This is the opinion of many fans
in this city following yesterdays
game against Toms River high
school when they were defeated by
the down county team by a 24-0
score.
The whistle for the first quarter
had been blown but few minutes
when the Toms River boys moved
right and left, advancing on every
play. until finally they took the ball
over for the first half dozen points.
It was soon after when the second
touchdown was scored by the home
team and the quarter ended with
the local team looking up at a 1910
score.
A comeback was made, however,
by the John street boys in the next
two periods. as the Toms River de-
spite their use of trick plays, heavy
line plunges and a heap of forward
passes could not penetrate the South
Amboy line for more than two yards.
The locals were also as uusuecess-
ful and they too were held by the
splendid defensive playing of the
down county team.

Tottenville's representative foot
ball team, the Beauvais Post, Ameri-

Moonlights, of Tompkinsville, Staten
Island, at the Aguehonga baseball
field tomorrow afternoon. The
Moonlights were carded for the Tot

this contest was postponed on ac-
count of weather conditions.
The Legion eleven has not been
defeated to date this fall and the
Elms, of Port Richmond, who were
beaten 1912 last Sunday, were the
first to score on the Tottenville out
fit. The opposition booked for to-
morrow is considered the strongest
light semi-pro eleven on Staten Is

Billy Flynn and Yves Hansen, of
this city, will occupy positions in
the Beauvais Post lineup tom orrow
afternoon. These men played ar
important part in the victory regis

to be important factors in bringing
