The interesting news of the week to oil producers, apart from that concerning the progress of the combine which is being promoted by W. S. Porter of Los An- geles to include all the producing com: panies of the Kern County -listrict, re- lates to an offer made by the Standard Oil Company. The two pieces of news practically fit together, one {illustrating the necessity of the combination in which €0 many producers are directly concerned. The Standard Oil Company has made an offer to the producers of the Kern River district to give them .15 cents per barrel on a contract for three years and is willing to take from 5000 to 50,000 bar- rels per month at that price. Some time since the Standard Oil Company began to remove a part of its storage plant from the Lima ofl fields to this State, and the indications have been in the direction of an intention to repeat in California the storage campaign which the company has carried on in the East. The opinion of the California oil pro- ducers is that if the Standard Oil Com- pany can secure a large amount of ofl, reckoned in millions of barrels, to be BEST FOR THE BOWELS If you haven't a regular, healthy movement of the borwels every day, you're il or will be.

KEEP YOUR BLOGOD CLEA stored for some years, it will not be dif- ficult for the great corporation to effectu- ally control the oil situation at the proper time. While the producers are trying to make their combination having primarily in view the raising of the price of oil to a paying basis, the Standard Company 1s making the lowest offer that has yet come from it. The two programmes of low-priced oil and high-priced ol are so diametrically opposed that the oil men believe that the move of the Standard Company will strengthen them in thelr attempt to get together. The Los Angeles Oil Producers’ Asso- ciation began operations on its own ac- count last week, making its first deliv- eries of oil. The policy of the executive committee appears to be one of secrecy. The Los Angeles papers say that the committee delayed the beginning of sales pending the completion of negotiations in which there were some outside factors The executive committee has absolute power in the sale of oil and the general management of the affairs of %the assocla- on. Operations in August. The Los Angeles Herald, reviewing the operations in the California oll field dur- ing the month of August, finds that there is a continued reduction in new work with an increase in the number of new weils. The Herald say: In summarizing the work in the ofl fields of California_during August there are few fm- portant points to chronicle. Work Las been at a standstill almost in several flelds, though it is now at the turning point and something of a revival of work is looked for. The com- pletion of pipe lines to the Midway fleld has made possible the extensive work which has been expected, while the Sunset railroad is now nearing completion and is expected to open the way for extensive work in the Sun- set fleld. In the Kern River fleld the great topic of inferest has been the project on foot for consolidating the producing companies and for several days a board of appraisement has been at work placing values on the assets of the’ various companies which are planning to enter the combine. though as yet no definite information is given out to the public. In that field several companies are preparing to set @ number of rigs at work on new wells and work on many wells which has been sus- pended for some time will soon be resumed. The position of the Standard Ofl Company in the Kern River fleld is not yet defined, though the company now has thirteen 35,000- barrel tanks filled with oil and ig still work- ing toward the 1,000,000 barrels on storage which !s said to be ‘the objective noint In the coast disirict there has been but one important development during the month. = It is reported that the Western Union Oil Com- pany’s second and third wells on the Carreasa ranch. in western Santa Barbara County, are both i oil, with indications that each wille prove a’ good producer, The Ventuwia Free Press surmises that recent transfers of land in Ventura, be- tween California and Chestnut streets, has some relation to the Standard Oil Com- pany. A rig has been installed and drifl- ing has begun. The drillers claim to know nothing about the company employing them and the mystery has been increased by the erection of a’ board fence twenty fect high around the derrick. The weil on the beach. During the past two eeks, according to the same authority, searchers from Los Angeles have been in Ventura looking into the title of the Union Ol Company's holdings. The search involved 35,000 acres in Ventura Ccunty. Thirty acres in the Sunset district have been leased by the Monarch Company in two tracts, respectively, of ten and twenty acres, the latter going to a com- pany composed of Chicago people. In ad- dition to these a twenty-acre tract has also been leased to J. E. Graves. The ofl companies in Kern County are strongly objecting to having their lands valued for purposes of assessment for taxation on the basis adopted by the County Assessor. The rolls of the county have been increased nearly $5,000,000, the increase being due to the taxing of oil lands. Suits have been brought by the Elwood Oil Company and the Bakersfield Oil Company to recover sums paid for taxes, the ground being that the title to their claims rests in the Government and the possessory interest is not liable to taxation. Finding Earth Tankage. The National Oil Reporter describes a cheap earth tank for the holding of oil which a Texas company built, the par- ticulars of which follow: The Manhattan Oil Company has pract decided upon the construction of IA’lveulc:}‘;X earthen reservoirs for storing ofl above the ground. One of these tanks will be bullt at once or as soon as the contract and other pre- liminary matters can be arranged for. The first reservoir will be built on the Manhattan Oil Company's land, block 22, Towa colony. This tract, which is owned by the Manhattan Company, contains ten acres and it is the present vlan to make the reservation cover the entire ten acres. The dimensions of the tank will be 830x463 feet. It will be eleven feet below the surface of the ground and ihe levees will be sixteen feet above the ground and -the whole tank will be covered with a roof of some suitable material which has not vet been definitely decided upon. The tank will cost fn the neighborhood of $0,000. or at the rate of about 3% cents per barrel. The cost of steel tankage is ahout 24 cents a bar- rel and the same storage capacity made of steel would cost in the neighborhood of §275,000. The tanks will not be walled with brick, nor will there be any material on the inside of the tank: It is the Intention to simply dig in the ground eleven fect deep and with the dirt will be thrown up levees sixteen feet high. BUREAU SEEKS MERCURIAL ORE Mobile Quicksilver Next Metal to Receive Attention. Gold Dredging Plants Are About to Enlarge Their Field. The first step toward securing informa- tion necessary for the bulletin to be is- gued by the State Mining Bureau relative to the quicksilver resources of the St kas been taken, The State Mineraiogist has during the past week addressed let- ters to the owrers or supermntendents of all the producing quicksilver mines, re- of the State Mining Bureau access to | their mines. These assistants will begin this month to examine the various deposits snd con- struction work for the purpose of gath- | ering data for the forthcoming bulletin. Some companies have declined to accede to this request. The Mineralogist says that all information wiil be treated with the strictest confidence by the bureau. It is his intention to obtain information of g general character which will aid and e of practical value to the miners throughout the State. California hag furnished nearly all the quicksiiver produced in the United States, and there are twelve counties in the State where quicksilver deposits have been found, these being Colusa, Lake, Napa, San Benito, lara, San Luis Obis- po, Sonoma, , Monterey Mendo- cino. Humboldt and Siskiyou. The Min- ing and Scientific Press says thal Califor- nia_quicksiiver mines have produced in a half-century 1,531,022, flasks of quicksilver. | The same paper furmishes the following facts: |, The sale price in San Francisco has been as | nigh as 51855 and as low as 32 % per Hask. | The present price is §43 to $47. Up to the close of 1899 the 1,831,022 flasks produced probably 014 for $58,000,000. In 187 Oreson was credited with a_product of sixty-five flasks. There are a number of deposits there. More recently a deposit of this ore has been found in Nevada, but whether of sufficient value to be worked is not known. In 189 there was a deposit reported discovered at Terlingua, Tex., which, it is claimed, has vielded about 1000 fiasks, Dredging the Calaveras. The Stcekton Independent says that the dredger tc be installed upon the Calave- ras River to rescue gold irom the bottom and siaes of that str field for operations. 2 projector: securcd nearly all the rights frem the poin: near Jenny Linc to a piace near Hunts Landing, this area being nearly three miles long. The (‘alaveras Prospect is of cpinjon tnat this particular section of the Calaveras River ought to prove very profitable for dredge mining, as many_of the tributary streams head in the rich gravel and placer claims on either side of the river. A mineral map of Inyo County has been completed in the drafting department of the State Mining Bureau. The State Min- eralogist will have a inineral map, with accompanying register, prepared for each mineral vroducing county in tne Stute, the same to ment progre. s. Each mine producing as possible on the map with a number, and the register furniches a description of the same, with information of a gen- eral character. The Mineralogist has sent out a circular letter referring to this mat- ter, in which he says: Some changes will be made in the character cf the registers. Improvement on those previously lssued. plain statement of facts will be Riven and all mines will be treated alike, as under this sys tem- it will be impossible to ‘‘boom” ot favor one property more than another. The Miner- alogist has instructed his assistants to furnish facts and not theories, o that any literature that may be lssued by the bureau will be ac- curate and beyond question. The Pioche Consolidated Mining Com- pany, which owns practically all the min- ing property at Ploche, Nev., is about to resume active work. The Redding Free Press says that the Moore group of mines, next to the Bully Hill mine, has been sold to a company of Leadville, Col., people for $3000. The Trini A toona quicksilver mine at Cinnabar, Trin- ity County, which has been working for several years, will soon suspend opera- tions. 7'he management has taken the water pump from the mine and has dis- continued taking in fuel. Contractors Reap Profits. Growing out of the large sweepstake deal in Trinity County are benefits to con- tractors of various kinds. The sum of $35,000 goes to one contractor for haul- ing in between 1000 and 1200 tons of freight. The same contractor, William M. Welsh, has also_a contract for hauling to the Bully Hill mine, from_which, according to the Redding Free Press, he received from $8000 to $10,000 per month. The report that Phelps, Dodge & Co. would build a_smelter at either El Paso or Deming is denied. The building of the Pacific Union Smelting Company’s plant at Lordsburg has been indefinitely de- layed by the Eastern labor troubles. The Yreka Journal says that an exten- sive_copper deposit has been discovered by McVey on the western side of Siskiyou Mountains in Siskiyou County, about five miles south of the Oregon line of Joseph- ine County and twenty-four miles from Jacksonville, Or. The nearest point for supplies is Jacksonville, The Journal sur- mises that other valuable copper locations will be found in the Siskiyou range and says that a very valuable deposit exists in Siskiyou County near the Del Norte County line at Preston Peak, while rich cinnabar lodes have been worked for years past at the head of Beaver Creek. The Scott Valley Advance reports that a deal is on for the purchase of a gold ledge on Scott Mountain for the cinnabar company for $20,000. According to the San Diego Unicn the new smelter at San Diego is almost ready to receive ore. The masonry work is done, the iron stack which goes up above the masonry chimney is yet to be put in place. The capacity of the furnace is claimed to be from thirty to fifty tons of iron daily, according to the ore used. The smelting will be done by the radiation of heat and not by direct application to the ore itself. The Union says that the furnace is only a small part of the plant which will be eventually built. As soon as the demon- stration is made that the best of iron can be supplied with this furnace work will begin on a plant capable of producing from 400 to 500 tons of iron a day. More Eastern Capital. The Sonora Union-Democrat reports that Boston capitalists who hold a bond on the Starr King mine are about to make a payment upon it. The Starr King is southeast from the Providence mine, which is being operated under a bond. The Colfax Sentinel says that the Girard Gold Mining Company has added four stamps to the outfit near Cisco. Five dredges will probably be working soon at South Thermallto for the Feather River Exvloration Company. This com- pany built the first successful dredge on Feather River land and is now operating three machines. The Stanislaus Milling and Power Com- pany will establish an electric line from the plant at Knights Ferry to the Wright & Lane mines. The motors will be put in at the mine to run the machinery and for other purposes. Water power will be applied {n crushing, which will be con. veyed through an eight-inch pipe a dis- tance of seven miles from Littlejohn Creek, across which an immense dam has been constructed. The Yreka Journal says: A smelting plant on Yreka Flats would prove a_profitable enterprise in treating ores from all sections of the county and especially from the Humbug range of mountains west of reka. ‘There are many ledges on Greenhorn, Humbug, McAdams, Deadwood and Cherry | creeks, as well as the numerous gulches in Yreka, Hawkinsville, Humbug, Deadwood and Cherry Creek districts that could furnish quartz in the sreatest abundance. the presence of sulphurets and other sub stances in the quartz it is difficult to wo with success excent by the smelter process, aithough showing rich prospects of gold.
