Altho stock of the Jupiter Oil company has soared in the past hours from around the level of cents to a new high level at 16 cents a share, reports from the company headquarters this morning absolutely denied the statement that an oil well has been encountered on Jupiter's -34-76. “I personally visited the well yes-, ” said C. W. Sparr, an officer Jupiter company, “and am in a position to say that the well is not yet an oil well. Of course there is a little showing of oil in the hole, but these showings are encountered many -in the Big Muddy field. The rumor of an oil |strike is founded entirely, I believe, on the small showing encountered.” The stock acting on the strength of broker advices has responded to the reports seeking a price level that has not been attained since 1917. The Jupiter company is incorporated for 2,000,000 shares, par value-$1, and the entire stoc Ese $ outstanding.
