Extensive Operations ofan Oil Monoply Rivaling the Standard Oil Company, New Yok, September23,1a. m.— A very powerful combination of western capitalists had obt; control of the oil producing country of California discovered up to the present time, which consists of a section of the Coast Ranze Mountains, five hundred aud fifty miles in length, stretching from Santa Cruz to Santa | Barbara, and including two handred | thousand acres, for four years, The work of examining the regitn by ex- perts has been going on and is now completed. Every spot giving indi- cacions of oil hvs been secared. A pact of the region was goverament land, and that pact 6l it has been.) leaseil for twenty years from farmers aud ranche owners, who had obtained possession_during the last twelv, years. Three parks of tho beariog region have been partly de veloped by various men, and the present monopoly is the result of suc- cesvive combivations of the ¢ 1 owners, who finally eold their int; to three leading men, C. N. Fenton, Lloyd Tevis, the president of Wells, Fargo & Co.’s Express aud Bank; and G.D. Schofield. They have formed the Pacific Coast Oil Company, and under its control the Californis oil country promises to be one of the great important and producing regiona of the world. Daring the last six months rapid strides have been made in the developed region; wells have been sunk, which show exceileat re: sults, machivery bought, works aud refineries constracted, vipe Imes laid, barrel and cask nd with unlimited ormous negotiations are equipment in every respect gigantic business euterpri probably destined to exert a stro inflaence upon the Pouneylvania dis tricts and_upon all existing ot markets. For a namber of mont rumors of this immense westera in- terest have floated across the country, and various reports have been rirtu- od among business men. It has been supposed, that the Standard Oil Company was putting capital into the enterprise, but this is not true. _The full facts can now ba given: Four years ago, two praczical _dril of Peunsylvania, went to Los An- gelos, in the San Fernande Moun- tains, where, in Pico Canyon, Spaniard had discovered a spot w oil was ouzing_out of the surf the ground. They erccted ep and sunk two wel one of them being one hundred and fifty feat deep, and the other two hundred feet d and were rewarded with a daily pro- duction of thirty barrels of ail, the specific gravity of which was farty. They pat up a small refinery havin: : o ors To. " ] cavacity of forty barcels at Lyon Station, enr the Southern Pacil Raiftcad, and carted the crude material over a touzh road to the refinery. The results obtained were 70 per centum illuminating oil, 10 per cdut, naphths, 10 per cent. lubri- cating, snd 10 per cent waste. This was & bonana, and in a few months it reached the ears of capitalists, who scoured the district and formed 1 California Star Oil Company. ! brought all the necessary from the east and_began to the samo improved fashion, as is practiced in Bradford and other dis- tricts in Penmsylvania, At a depth of six hundred and in Pico Canyon, wellx are found, which eighty barrels aday. Theso w to the present 46,000 barrels of crude been sold at an average price of a lit- tlomore than §2 a barrel. It gave the samo results as the original fiow- ing well, and as soon as the region had been partly developed, and it was found that thero wasa large body of oil there, legal difficulties intor- rupted the development. of the coun- try. The men controlling the threo developed districts have boen working together prossing on tho work as quickly as possible. An immense 1,000 harrel refinery with a tankage of treble its capacity has been erected at Alemada Point, on San Francisco bay; shipdocks sre in front of it on the bay, aud railroad conmections have been made; pipe lines have been Laid to conduct the oil from the wells to the railroads, and these_ railroads afford ample facilities fcr shipping the oil anywhere. A short time azo Tl ton, Tevisani Schofiald bought the entire stock of the company and mow have sole control of the businoss. New rigs for drilling are now in pro- cess of construction, and the devel- opement of the country will b push- ed a3 quickly as_money can push it. The lnst woll which has been drilled was o fifty barrel pumping well in Santa Cruz district, which was struck last woek. The company now has sixteen wells down, in the region, which yield 300 barrels per day. The average percentum of illaminating oil galoed from crude oil is 75 per cent, which is a large average. The homs market at present absorbs all the ofl the country can produce, but the amount produced will soon run be- yond the capacity of the home mar- ket, which includes California and Oregou. —_— Presbyterian General Council.
