STATE MAKES SHOWING IN OIL FIELDS {Returns From South Prove That California, Under Poor Conditions, Holds Its Own in Comparison With Gushing Wells Figures relating to the shipments o! from the Texas and Louisiana oil flelds for the year 1903 have just been made public. Compared with the re- turns for California during the same | twelve months, and bearing in mind local conditions, the situation is.ex- tremely favorable to the oil industry in this State. The total shipments from | the oil fields of the Southern States in 1903, including Beaumont and Sour Lake, amounted to but 15,000,000 bar- rels. The output of California last reas | according to the estimates supplied hy Secretary Dean of the California Pe- troleum Miners’ Association, amounted to 20,000,000 barrels. It is a matter of common knowledge that California can easily produce twice that amount when the fields are developed sufficiently. nds are rich and qppminglyl ible for many years. The price fuel oil is still the deterring cause There is no :arcity of oil in any field, but not dne fuel oil section is producing anything for that retards development. In a sense the same conditions obtain that earlier were marked features in California. There are a few rich com- panies that have large plants and large outputs and profitable contracts for supplies. On the other hand, there are companies that still are suffering for lack of coin; that own' their properties, with no debt and no cloud on the title to the land: that are equipped Wwith plants that are not used because they are limited and are not able to produce to make a profit at ruling prices on the basis of a small output. One conspicuous example of this sort tie-up is a company in cert ding politicians and lawyers of this city are concerned. The company has two wells that have oil in them, a quarter-section of land situ- ated in proved territory, and adjoining land in which oil has been profitably vet the smaller company is tied up and not turning a wheel. Undoubtediy there are other companies in the same fix. o operate the works of the com- pany in question it would be necessary to expend $75,000 in sinking a number of additional wells and in providing large pumping plants, jacks, etc. Another drawback to the prosecution of private development work on the scale possible has been the entrance into the field of both the Santa Fe and Southern Pacific companies as pro- ducers of fuel for their own locomo- tives. This has removed a demand for ofl from the oven market, for the| transportation lines are able to produce their own fuel. The Southern Pacific Company has bought out the several large compa- nies that form a constituent part of the Associated Ofl Company, the largest ofl] concern in the Kern County fields and the largest oil company in the State with the exception of the Standard Oil By the purchase of the stocks of the companies that were merged in the As- sociated Oil Company the Southern Pa- cific Company hag made an advance toward controlling the Associated Oil. As the Southern Pacific Company is not likely to be contented to have only a minority interest in any enterprise in which it is concerned, it is probably safe to assume that the great railway it meeds for its own consumption at practically its own price. It will be cheaper for the railway company to pump oil than to mine for coal. Bearing these and allied facts in mind and assuming that Dr. Deane’s figures relative to the production of rect and that California produced 20,« under temporarily de- cannot hope to permanently compete with the California fields, in which is stored enough cheap fuel to last as a basis of profitable manufacturing for at least a century. There was a wide market for the Texas oil last year. The greatest shipped naturally went by steamship and barges to New Orleans, to Atlantic points, Cuba, England and Egypt. By way of Sabine Pass 1, 146,178 harrels went to domestic ports and for- eign countries, and 5,711,615 barrels were shipped in tank cars to points in Texas and Louisiana. Only a small percent- age of the rail shipments went outside of Texas and Louisiana. WHERE THE OIL GOES. Some additional details are supplied from a reliable source as follows: From Jennings (Louisiana) 208,800 barrels | were shipped dQuring the year 1903 by rail. Combining the rall shipments with the water shipments the total from Texas and Louisiana felds amounted to 14,999,442 barrels. The rec- ord shipments by the Kansas Clty Southern Railrond for the year was not obtainable, nor a complete record of barge shipments from the Jennings fleld. Of the rail shipments t Southern Pacific handled from Gladys (Spindl Top), 10,667 cars; from Beaumont, 1663 cars; from’ Sour Lake, 11.359 cars: from Jennings, 1328 cars. Shipments from Sour Lake were rot started until July, 1903. The Santa e moved 4833 cars from Beaumont. In com- puting the Southern Pacific shipments from Giadys and Beaumont an average car capacity of 200 barrels is used. Most of the system cars shipred from Gladys and Beaumont are of 300 barrels capacity, while the private line At Sour Lake the 300-barrel system cars predominate. The same applies to Jennings. The Santa Fe system cars are of barrels capacity. It is | difficult to fizure the complete production of the various Texas flelds for the year 1908 owing to the great number of operators and diversity 5t Dntenests. but eatimates are stated as (ol lows: _Spindle Top, 6.3 Sour Lake, 7,000,000 barrels; Jennings, 500,000 bar- rels; Saratoga, 100,000 barrels: production, 14,100,000 barrels. Estimates of o in etcrage range between 7,000,000 and 5,000,000 barrels, mot including the 1,500,000 barreis in Southérn Pacific tanks or Texas oil in storage at Eastern stations. The Mountain Copper Company in Shasta County figures high up in a list of the producers of refined copper in the United States during 1903. The Moun- tain Copper production was, as esti- mated, 25,000,000 pounds. This was a falling off from 1901, by reason of labor troubles, of 4,000,000 pounds. The great producers of copper in the United States in 1903 have their output ranked by approximate estimates as follows, the figures representing pounds of re- fined copper: Anaconda (Mont.). 95,000,000; Calumet and Heela (Mich.). §0.000,000: Boston and Montana (Mont.). 57,500, ‘c;-ol‘umé and Arizona (Ariz.), o z— it Copper ny (Ariz.).

The present array of dredgers | is kept at work steadily. Drilling out- fits are prospecting new ground day and night. The Independence gravel mine near( Angels, Calaveras County, and' the Jones mine near Angels are about to resume. The Pine mine on Mokelumne River has been bought by Newman and oth- ers. The property will be opened up by tunnel to strike the ledge 100 feet below the old workings. The Mining and Scientific Press re- ports that the tailings and sulphurets from the Rattlesnake mine, near Gar- den Valley, El Dorado County, as treat- ed by the cyanide process, have yielded as high as $20 a ton in gold. The ore when run through the miil did not pay enough to make a profit. The Cataract mine in Plumas County, near Quincy, has been sold to W. Whit- aker and others. The Peter quar(z mine at Indian Valley, near Genessee, will be opened up by a Minneapolis company. A new dredger to work near Folsom will be opérated by the Folsom De- velopment Company. It will work to the depth of forty feet below the water level. The dredger of the California and De- troit Dredging Company has begun to operate near Horsetown, Shasta Coun- ty. The company reports that other dredgers will be built for its use. The Mountaineer mine near Nevada City has been unwatered and work on the 400 and 700 levels ig proceeding. The Fernandez hydraulic mine near Yreka, Siskiyou County, is again operating. A 30-ton smelter will be built for the Rio Vista gold and copper mine near Nashville, El Dorado County. The Bully Hill smelter will substi- tute oil fuel for wood. An Oroville dredging company has bonded eighty- | five acres of the river bar just east of Red Bluff. The land will be prospected with the drill. Probably the busiest mine in the world is the Treadwell, in Alaska, which is in operation twenty-four hours in the day every day in the year with the exception of the Fourth of July and Christmas. There are 830 stamps, each consisting of five heavy, upright bars of steel that fall with crushing force on flat plates. The mill crushes 4500 tons of rock daily. SOME RAILROAD -CLAIMS. There is some food for thought in the statement of the controversy that has arisen in Southern Wyoming be- tween the Union Pacific Railway and the miners, as it is condensed by the Mining and Scientific Press. The sub- stance of the matter is as follows: Prospectors have been searching on the odd numbered sections claimed by the railroad company under the grant from the Government. The grant in question excepts mineral lands, but does not include those containing coal or iron. But when land is refe to as “mineral”” it must have been known as mineral prior to the time when the grant attached, and the discovery of a gold, copper or other metal mine after the title has passed to the railroad is not Included in the land excepted from the grant. The Wyoming prospectors are searching for both coal and petroleum, but as coal lands are distinctly excepted from the operation of the statute which reserves the mineral lands, the prospectors have little to hope for in that direction. Petroleum lands, however, are recognized as mineral and are subject to loca- tion on the public domain and lands within the rauroad grants whigh are discovered to be oll bearing before the raliroad company has acquired title to them are subject to location as mineral lands. It is reported that the Union Pacific Company has posted notices warning prospectors that they must confine their ex- plorations to the lands of the public domain, Prospectors, before searching for mineral on these lands, would do well to ascertain the S. state of the title to any particular section of land, for where the railroad company has per- ;,m (eld its title, the case of the prospector is opele: —_———— Stockholders Sue Directors.

YOUNTVILLE, Feb. —At the Veterans’ Home here an up-to-date | hospital has just been completed. The Legislature at its session of 1901 | appropriated for the erection of thls; building $25,000. In 1903 it made a similar appropriation, only $15,000 of | which has been used, leaving a bal-{ ance of $10,000 still available for the construction of a phthisical ward. This new institution for the sick has been in course of construction for; some months and is in every way an ideal abode for the invalids at the | home. . The hospital is of modern workmanship and is based upon the | pavilion type. The exterjor of the| building is finished in cement concrete, | upon metal lath, and is topped oft: above the main cornice with Spanish | terra cotta tile. The character of the | material employed insures a unl(’orm‘. | | I | temperature throughout the building. | An ample amount of light and un- obstructed circulation of air are pos- sible throughout the building, as it is a group of semi-detached buildings or wings. The east and west wings are ward pavilions and accommodate | on the main floor thirty-five beds and‘ on the basement floor thirty beds each. i In these wards on the basement floor | will be placed convalescents and men‘ too old and feeble to be in the quar- ters but able to go up and down stairs | to meals and walk independently around the grounds. On this floor | there is also a ward for men confined | entirely to their wheel chairs. Throughout the basement floor all in- | clines are graduated. Thus the in-| valids in the chairs will be at liberty to wheel themselves around as they please. There are long arcades in front of the basement sfory, where these sufferers will be able to push their chairs in and out when the weather is fine and look on the beauti- ful surrounding scenery. This lower floor also affords a bright, cozy din- ing-room for these helpless invalids and is connected by a food elevator with the kitchen above. Besides the wards the basement story contains the steward’'s office, male employes' quar- ters and a splendid reading and smok- ing room. At right angles to the ward paviiions and separating them is the adminigtra- tion pavilion, the main floor consist- ing of the medical director's and as- sistant’'s office, operating, sterilizing, | dressing, waiting and oculist's rooms. Directly across the hall fromy the ope- | rating room is the surgical ward, where there is every facility for taking the best care of the patients. The ! basement and the main floors each | have two octagonal solariums, con- necting the wards with the administra- | tion pavilion.
