36 . THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1901. MATERIAL FOR LINE NOW ON THE ROAD Standard Oil Company Makes First Shipment From Pitts- burg of Mains Needed to Carry Crude Petroleum of Kern County Cheaply to The first of the eight-inch iron pipe for the Standard Ofl Company's pipe line to extend from the Kern River oil field to Point Richmond has been shipped from Pittsburg and is now on the way to Cali- | fornia. This will be great news to thou- sands of persons financially interested in prosperity of the ofl industry of Cali- ia, for it means that the Standard Oil etermined to enter, as as possible, into competition with Iroads sportation of the bulk of fuel the producing fields of the State tidewater on the bay of San Francisco. en the line is actually in operation the rate for moving ofl will probably not ex- ceed 10 cents a barrel. The railroad now charges 40 cents and the significance of ving of 30 cents a barrel not upon those who are in e oil industry. In connection with the beneficial effecis that the great combina- tion known as the Associated Oil Com- pany can be counted upon to bring about, Jot of the oil men promises to be in the immediate future s been in the past. information is received that 011 Company has contracted nanufacture of the entire amount pipe that will be needed for 400 miles pipe line. At the same time the con- ion of tanks, that will be needed in m with the pipe line, with the e storage capacity of hundreds sands of barrels, is in progress in the East. Many of the tanks have been and they are ready to be ornia. Work will be pushed ay be necessary upon the re- of £ he construction of the pipe line and cessories the Standard Oil Com- ill expend $5,000,000. The first step y the company in connection with pipe line was to secure rights of way. work has so far been accomplished there are very few breaks in the ous land grants extending from ern River field to tidewater and the re insignificant. There will be 1o obstacles to prevent the laying of the pipe line when the proper time comes, in the near future, to perform that work. Connecting Other Districts. take Mention has been previously made of the gre: refinery that the Standard Oil Company will construct at Point Rich- mond. To this the oil will be piped. At there will be only the direct line e Xern Biver district to tidewater. hes will D€ laid later to connect the tirick and Coalinga districts. While direct from Bakersfield to only about 270 miles, which h of the main pipe line, anches that will be con- | holders. LAW COLLEGE STUDENTS | COMPLETE ARRANGEMENTS FORM DEBATING SOCIETY | Important Topics of the Day to 3e Discussed Each Friday BIG PIPE Tidewater at San Francisco| structed, from time to time, will give for the pipe line system a total length of 400 miles. The fact that the Standard Oil Com- pany has already arranged to invest 5,000,000 in the pipe line and other large sums in lands and in the refinery to be placed at Point Richmond fully demon- strate that the large corporation has de- | termined to be a great factor in the hand- I:ng of California_ fuel oil north of Te- nachapi and also that its astute managers have faith in the permanency and ness of the supply that is to be deve oped in this State. No more flattering | tribute to the richness. of the oil re-| sources of California could possibly be paid, for the Standard Oil Company's experts are the best. The company has solved the problem of moving the dense fuel oil over the long distance between Kern County and San | Francisco Bay. There has been an opin- fon in this State that the oil could not be piped long distances. The confidence of the Standard Oil people, based upon their actual experiments, continued dur- ing a series of months, evidently deter- mines that the fear that the oil could not [ be piped is a mistaken one. The plan | adepted is to have pumping stations dis- tributed along the line at intervals of twenty miles and there will be settiing at each station, to settle the oil before pushing it farther along upon its journey. Experiment has demonstrated the feasibility of this arrangement and has also resulted in the selection of the right sort of pumping machinery to do the necessary work. All the pipe will be of eight-inch. diameter, which will per- mi: of a rapid movement of a large bulk of oil. Arnly of Employes. The construction of the Standard Oil Company’s pipe line will call into use an army of employes in this State. Even after the line has been made ready to operate and is in actual use the employes will be legion. The necessity of walkers to guard and watch the pipe line, the machinists needed to make repairs and to do the necessary construction work that will be required from time to time, the gangs to attend the numercus pumping plants and to the settling tanks and to start the oil upon its journey and to re- ceive it, will make it necessary to keep up a long payroll. The Standard Oil Company people say that there will be a village at each of the company’s pumping stations along the entire line of pipe. This news, by reason of the several series of facts already published, will be seen to be of vast importance to the en- tire State. San Francisco will receive fuel for manufacturing purposes and for other uses in large quantities, in reliable supply and at rates for moving that will cnable the ofl producing companies of the State to make money for their stock- FOR THE GRAVES FUNERAL Druids of This and Adjoining Cities -Will Follow Remains of Dead Evening. of the Hastings College | rtment of the University of | ia) met Friday evening in the lec- | City Hall, San Francisco, and | a debating society.
