ILE INVESTMENT.

Extensive Operations ofan OilMonoply Rival ing the

Standard Oi-

lCompany ,

NEW YORK , Septemb2r23la. m-

.A.

veiy powerful combination ofwestern capitalists had obtainedcontrol of the oil producing country-of

-

California discovered up to thepresent time , which consists of asection of the Coast Range Mountains ,

five hundred and fifty miles in length ,stretching from Santa Cruz to SantaBarbara , and including two hundredthousand acres , for four years. Tliework of examining the region by ck-

pertfl-

has been going on and is nowcompleted. Every spot giving indi-cations

¬

of oil hcs been secured. A-part of the regionwas governmentland ) and that part u! it has been ,leased for twenty ygars from farmersand ranchtS ownira , who had obtainedpossession during the last twelveyears. Three Jlwta of tno oilbearing region have been partly de-

veloped¬

by various men , and thepresant monopoly is the result of sue-ctsjive

-

combinations of the originalowners , who finally eold their intefcsi-to three leading men , C. N. Fenton ,

Lloyd Tevls , the president of Wells ,Fargo & Co.'s Expr ss and Bank ; and0. P. Schofield. They have formedthe Pacific Coast Oil Company , andunder its control the California oilcountry promises to bo one of thegreat important and producing regionsof the world. Daring the last sixmonths rapid stridoi have bs n m.ide-in the developed region ; wells h.ivebeen sunk , which shnw excellent re-

sults¬

, niicliinery bought , works andrefineries constructed , nipe luies laid ,

barrel and disk factories built , andwith Unlimited capital , eiionnou *

negotiations are effected for theequipment in every retpjct of agigantic business enterprise , which isprobably destined to exert a stronginfluence upon the Pennsylvania dis-tncts and upon all existing oilmarkets. For a number of months ,rumors of this immense western in-terest

¬

have floated across the country ,and various reports have been circu-lated

¬

among business men. It hasbsen supposed , thattho Standard OilCompany was putting capital into theenterprise , but this is not true. Thefull facts can now ba given : Fouryears ajo , iwo praoiiual drillersof Pennsylvania , went to Loa An-geloa

-

, in the San Fernando Moun-tains

¬

, whore , in Pico Canyon , nSpaniard had discovered a spot Whereoil waa oozing out of the aumco ofthe ground. They erected spring poloriga and sunk two wells , one of "thembeing one hundred and fifty feet deep ,and the other two hundred feet depp ;and were rewarded with a daily pro-duction

¬

of thirty barrels of oil , thespecific gravity of which was fwrty.They put up a small refinery having acapacity of forty barrels at Lj'ouaStation, oil thD Southern PacificRailroad , and carted the crudematerial over a roush road to tbe-refinery. . The results obUmol were70 per centum illuminating oil , 10 perc3ut , naphtha , 10 per cent, lubri-cating

¬

, and 10 per cent waste. Thiswas a bonanza , and in a few monthsit reached the ears of capitalist ? , whosecured the district and formed theCalifornia Star Oil Company. Theybrought all the necessary machineryfrom the east and begin to drill inthe sama improved fashion , as ispracticed in Bradford and other dis-

tricts¬

in Pennsylvania. At a depthof six hundred and fifty"cot , in Pico Canyon , flowingwellc are found , which yieldedeighty barrels a day. Those wells up-to the present time have yielded40,000 barrels of crude oil , which hasbeen sold at an average price of a lit-ile

-

more than §2 a barrel. It savethe same results as the original flow-

ing¬

well , ani as soon as the regionhad been partly developed , and itwas found that trere was a largo bodyof oil there , legal difficulties inter-rupted

¬

the development of the coun-try.

¬

. The men controlling the threedeveloped districts have been workingtogether pressing on the work aiquickly as possible. An immense1,000 barrel refinery with a tankage-of treble its cipacity has been createdat Alemada Point , on San Franciscobay ; ship docks are in front of it onthe bay, and railroad connectionshave been made ; pipe lines have beenhid to conduct the oil from the welh-to the railroads , and these railroadsafford ample facilities fcr shipping theoil anywhere. A short lime ajo Hel ¬

ton , Tevis anl Schofiald bought theentire stock of the company and nowhave sole control of the business.New rigs for drilling are now in pro-cess

¬

of construction , and the dovol-opement

-

of the country will be push-ed

¬

as quickly as money can push it.The last well which has been drilledwas a fifty barrel pumping well inSanta Cruz district , which was strucklast week. The company now hassixteen wells down , in the region ,which yield 300 barrels per day. Theaverage percentum of illuminating oilgained from crude oil is 75 per cent ,which is a large average. Tlio homeimrket at present absorbs all the oilthe country can produce , but thaamount produced will soon run be-

yond¬

the capacity of the home mar-ket

¬

, which includes California andOregon.
