J. Loreman, geologist, by which
the company was tor have '' raised
one-half of a $30,000 pool has fail
ed, it was announced yesterday by
officials of the West Coast company.
Inability to raise money through
the voluntary assessment of stock
holders, was given as the reason
for failure. . The West Coas com
pany was to have raised approxi
mately $24,000, of which $15,000
was to have been placed at the dis
posal of Loreman for farther drill
ing operations. The balance of
the money was to have floated In
debtedness of the company. :
At the same time : It became
known that the drilling rig of tbe
West Coast company had been of
fered Loreman for purchase. ' No
price was mentioned. . ! :
To Move Rig
It wa. the plan of Loreman to
move the West Coast Tig to another
location where prompt results
would be shown if there was ; oil ..
in the vicinity. The present well,
financed chiefly by local capital,
was deemed Impractical by Loreman
because of difficulties in the drill
ing $nd It was to have been .aband

Loreman made no secret of the
fact that he did not believe the nee
