Cuban Provinces HAVANA, Cuba, March 16.—Dr. Al- fredo Zayas y Alfonso, former vice president and tandidate of the con- servative-popular coalition (national league) party, made practically a clean sweep of the partial elections held yesterday in several hundred precincts of various provinces in Cuba. Unofficial and in ete figures given’ out by the department of com- ing show that in the four provintes outside of Havana where elections were held, the Liberal party obeyed the order of its executive committee to remain away from the polls, only 42 voting. 7 Although the Liberals carried Hav- ana provinces in the regular Novem- ber elections and partial elections are set. for Oriente province on March 26, yesterday’s election was consider- ed final as regards the presidency. eral Crowder, special American representative, personally made a tour of inspection last week into sev- eral provinces. SOIC ROYALTY OWNISION APPROVED AT SUNDANGE SUNDANCE, Wyo., March 16. — The Sundance Commercial club has adopted and forwarded to the Wyom- The Midwest has already built a large earthen storage tank at the Cas- per tank farm and this tank holds much more oil than steel tankage units could in a single unit. In an effort to tide over the con- gestion here and’ at Greybull, the Mid- west has started work on three large 55,000 gallon tanks at Greybull and the same number here at the local tank farm: These tanks will help considerably in the matter of storage of crude stocks until the demand for All the oil companies in the Mid- Continent oil fields are now taking a Jfulle production from the leases and turning it into the pipe line, This is reacting against the Wyoming oil fields to some extent as it gives the refiners an overstock of crude and therefore the refiners are able to un- dersell the Wyoming plants which have to pay a heavy freight rate to place their refined stocks on the mar- kets. It is reported that several refiners of the northwest are considering mak- munications at 1 o’clock this morn-jing an effort to break into the Pa- cific coast trade in order to find an outlet for the refined products. The Pacific coast at present is suffering » greater shortage of petroleum -prod- ucts than any other part of the coun- try, according to the head of the American Petroleum Institute, Thos. O'Donnell. ‘This region because of its being sit- uated on the other side of the Rocky mountains is rather shut off from procuring petroleum products from the Wyoming or the Mid-Continent flelds and depends upon the protac- tion of the California oil fields in the main for its refined oils qnd greasex, At the same time the Pacific comst is one of the largest users of pe- troleum products in the world as that region has more oil burning ships and uses more fuel oil than any other re- gion.
