Reports 1O-Barrel Flow
Of Oil at Hobson Wildcat

production of from eight to 10 barrels per
day of high gravity crude from depth of 81
feet was reported to the Journal today from the
F. E Hunt test on Hobson dome, Judith Basin
county.
The Journals informant was P. j. Hoven, a
landowner on the structure who says he was
present at the well when it was drilled in and
saw the bailer come out of the hole full of OIL
The producing horizon is the Mosby sand
The well is located in the northeast corner of Sec
ton 3O-14N-15E.
F. E. Hunt has gone east for the holidays,
stopping in Casper TO order string of 8-inch
pipe and gave orders for the crew to case off
this oil and continue to the Cat Greek sands in
the base of the Kootenai
Hoven states that the oil is brown, and ap-
parently of high gravity. Samples have been
shipped to the AFRO Oil & Refining company at
Lewistown for analysis.
A showing of 10 barrels at this shallow
depth is commercial, operators say. If true, it is
the first commercial oil found in Judith Basin.

The long expected curtalment of Mon
tana oil shipments to Canada was this week
announced in Cut Bank field when Montana
Pipeline company, local buyer for Imperial
Oil company, announced so per cent pro-
ration on leases from which it is producing
oil.
international Pipeline and Toronto Pipe
line company, the other two principle buy
ers, made no announcement or did they in
dictate whether they win follow in the cur
tailment policy.
Heavy shipments to Regina followed es-
adjustment of a 27-cent railroad rate from
Cut Bank to Regina by the Great Northern
and shipments to Canada increased to more
than 1000 barrels per day in October.
November will doubtless show an in
crease in storage in both Cut Bank and Ke
vin-Sunburst after two months of runs
which exceeded production.
October production of Kevin-Sunburst
was III, 1868 barrels against total sales of
1887 barrels; Cut Bank production was
232,523 barrels against sales of 233,407

APT SHOWS CRUDE
RESERVES TOTALING
IL BILLION BBLS.

Refuting claims Of a pending
petroleum shortage the American
Petroleum Institute is issuing a
hook which will show petroleum re-
serves in known fields Of the United
States in excess OF $4,000. 900, 900
barrels. These estimates are not
based on modern production meth
DDS. Their conservativeness is
shown by the fact that Montana re-
serves are fixed at only 10000
600 barrels. Cut Bank alone will
produce more than that amount.
The reserves for Colorado are set
up at 100000 barrels and Wyo-
ming at 250.0O0.0O0 barrels, both
figures being much too conserve
tive. in the opinion Of petroleum
geologists.

barrels. Pondera produced 32,437 barrels
and marketed 48, 1873. Cat Creek produced
23,4l9 barrels and marketed 23,623 bar
rels. Production for the month in the entire
state was 25,S74 barrels less than consump-
ton. Storage was reduced from 1859, 1888
barrels to 1,113,225 barrels.
September production was 405,5l4 bar
rels against consumption of 517,412 bar
rels, an excess of demand of $4,000 bar
rels This was in addition to 1912 bar
rels of imported oil used in Montana re-
fineries. Montana refineries import an av-
erage of 5000 barrels per day from Wyo-
ming during the summer season.
Gasoline consumption in Montana for
this year is expected to approach 100000
600 gallons-an all-time record. The first
nine months of this year showed an in
crease of l2.4 per cent over the same period
in 1884.
The early construction of another Mon
tana refinery is expected to balance this
situation.

One Of the two burglars was
overtaken and killed by a posse Of
Shelby citizens who traced them
to the Murray ranch south Of
town.
Alsup and Tenbroeck. city mar
shals, came upon the two burg
lars in the midst OF wholesale
robbery. The robbers had broken
into a garage and stolen two new
cars and they had robbed several
business houses, loading the loot
into the stolen cars. When the Of
Ulcers appeared the robbers began
shooting. Both officers fell. per-
haps fatally wounded. but bullet
holes in one Of the cars testified
to the fact that the officers had
returned the fire. There were no
other witnesses.
The robbers drove the two cars
toward Great Falls and abandoned
them near the Marfas river. Then
they hack tracked to the Murray
ranch half a mile south Of Shelby
and ate breakfast with the Muir
ray family. About o'clock 8 Shell
by posse traced the robbers to the
ranch house. They tried to escape
and one Of them was cut down,
with bis head blown off. The sec
ond one escaped and at last reports
was still at large with the posse IN
pursuit.
The pair are believed to be the
bad men who have staged a series
OF bold holdups and burglaries in
northern Montana for several weeks
past.
Tenbroeck was brought to Great
Falls by automobile but Alsup was
too badly hart to be moved. Later
in the day. however, he was placed
on an airplane and brought to
