THE PETROLEUM SUPPLY. A Member or Pennsylvania's ftiialoffieal Survey Takes a t.loomy View, ( John F. Carll is assistant geologist tf ttie Stuta or Pennsylvania, and (or several your It bas bean hi eapoclal business to collect statistics and all available Information regarding petro leum and natural gas. In conversation with Prof. Carll he expressed some rathor sensational opinions regarding the future supply of petroleum. Notwithstanding other views are tilten by producers. Prof. Carll says the potro.eum field of Penn sylvania are beinjr rapidly drained, and at the pro-tent rate of exhaustion It will not he many yoars until the question of supplying the world with petroleum will be a moat sorlous one. "For the lust year." said Prof. Carll, "the supply was &,OOO,OO0 barrel short of demand, a gauged by formor years, and every day the demand Is more and the supply much less- A few yoar ago the revorxe wns the case. Stocks wore piling up at the rate of 2.000,000 bar rels per month, or about that, and now they a-e being decreased at the rate of 1,000,000 barrols a month, and have been for the last yoar. This shortage in the supply Includes the large produc tion of the Ohio fields, where extraor dinary results have been obtained in the wny of large wells." There are now something like 12,000, 000 barrels of petroleum in tanks in the Ohio field, but this was because Ohio oil was not yet used extensively as an illumlnant Prof. Carll was asked his opinion re garding the probable extent of the Ohio field and said he believed it would be found much lens In extent than the trade and the public generally Relieved. There have boon opinions expressed that the yield of the Ohio fiold could be Increased to 100.0JO barrels a day. He thought it would not last long at this rate of production. When this field come to be entirely defined." he said, "it Is pretty sure to fall very much be low the expectations that a -e now held out for it." When aske I if he thought Ohio oil wo'ild ever be successfully re fined and enter the market as a com petitor of the Pennsylvania product h said: "I certainly hope so. Without this oil I can not soe where the world's supply is to come from, and it would be a very great hardship to the people if they bad to give up this cheap and popular illuminant. Neither gas nor electricity, in my judgment, can ever take its plaoe as a means of illumina- tion for the masses. And yet, with the known' fields being as rapidly exhausted as they are, I look before many years for a great scarcity of petroleum." Bradford was the field that produced such an extraordinary quantity of oil. piling up the stocks on tanks until they reached S6.000.000 barrels, with the fields still yielding 60.000 barrels a day r thereabout. In regard to the possi bility of another such field being dis covered Prof. Carll said he believed there was absolutely no likelihood of it. The number of experimental wells that had been drilled in search of another Bradford sand in a 1 parts of the coun try seemed to establish the fact that Bradford wiu unique and alone. He did not believe that such a petroleum deposit us this would ever bo found In any country In the world. The Brad ford fiold and Its annex in Allegany County, New York, are apparently be ing drained to the dregs. Atone time the production of the field was ns high as 105,000' barrel every twenty-four hours. Now it is down below 20. 000, possibly as low as 18,000 barrels. Bradford bus produced about 5G, 000,000 barrels of oil, and a pool that will yield the fifty-sixth part of this is something that the. oil-producer is eagerly looking for. Prof. Carll said there were yet possibilities of opening up small pools that would produce from 1,000,000 to 3.000.000 barrols. even in some of tho old fit-Ids, such as Venango, Warren and Butler Counties, in Penn sylvania, but even these possibilities were growing more and more remote. The Cogley field, which has produced about 3,000.000 barrols. was the last extensive field found in Venango Coun ty, and this was perhaps as large a field as would ever be found there again. Cor. St. Louis Globe-Democrat. An Unceremonious Caller. At Harvard last winter Rev. Dr. Phillips Brooks noticed three young men who came to hear him regularly, and as they looked like working men, he was more interested than usual. He took pains to find out who they were, and made an opportunity to speak with them. Having ascertained where they lived and what they did, he went one day to call on them. He climbed several flights of stairs and knocked at the door. All three of the young men were in, and they were taking their comforts in their shirt sleeves. Natur ally they were a trifle embarassed at being surprised by this mau, to whom they looked up with so much respect Dr.Brooks shook hands all around, and then said, with his cheerful smile, "Well, boys, it's a little warm hero; I think, .if you will let me, I will take off my coat," and he did, and sat down and made his call in his shirt sleeves. -Bost. n Journal .
