Kansas House to-day, without a dis- senting vote, passed the bill making oil lines common carriers. This is the second of the series of bills direct- ed against the Standard Oil Company and was strongly opposed by the Stan- dard Oil Interests. It has alseady passed the Senate and will be signed by the Governor. Without this bill the refinery plan could not have been carried out successfully owing to the lack of pipe lines owned by the State. Now, however, the State oil can be piped through the Standard’s lines. The anti-discrimination bill, designed to prevent the Standard from under- selling the State refinery, will be made a spe order for next Monday. This bill makes it unlawful for any commodity to be sold in any one town of the State lower than in another un- such difference may be made nec- v through freight rates. Thus the Standard will be prevented from set- ting the price of oil to meet the State price any place in the State unless it pip redy the price in the -whole State. A fight against the measure is being waged by Kansas jobbers. The ol producers expect to be able to secure hs pusage. however. The anti-dis- nination bill is the Senate measure and the Senate threatens to secure its passage by holding up the House rall- road bill. Governor Hoch at noon signed the 11 passed on Wednesday appropriat- 0,000 for the erection and main- tenance by the State of an oil refin- ery with a capacity of 2000 barrels a day. The signing of this measure will make it possible for Kansas to begin in earnest the fight started in this State recently against the Standard Kans, Feb. 17.—The s again buying oil in the Chanute district after refus- ing to take any for ome week. The construction of the pipe lines in the territory is also again in progress. The Standard says it is taking only about 10,000 barrels of oil out of the field, but the producers say they are really .12 more than that amount.
