The edict was issued from the home office at Chicago, and should have great bearing upon the final decision of the men.

H He ie of the opinion that the cheap- er refining expénse in Casper, where fuel is a minimum of expense duo to the low cost of natural gas, will result in the Mammoth company building a refinery here and shipping the refined products to market. In regard to the pipeline from here to Kansas City, which wilt connect the Wyoming fields with the trunk line, Mr. Craw- ford states that the 25,000 barrel daily capacity of that line would amount to a small percentage of the production of the Teapot, provided thar field comes in as richly as geologists be- lieve it will. ‘The surplus oll, which will consist of the greater part of the production. then will be refined here. The chief purpose of the clause in the Mammoth contract which obliges that company to build a line to Kansas City is to open the fields of the rich state of Wyoming to the rest of the country in case of emergency. He says that the same arguments in regard to ship- ping oll out of the state were preva- lent im Qkiahoma in the earty days, but that fhe pipeline there proved en- tirely satisfactory to producers, re- finers and consumers.
