Winnepeg, Nov. 2, 1878. ti THE HURON EXPOSITOR. 5 The Oil Fight in Pennsylvania. The great issue in Pennsylvania, now that election is over, is the conflict be- tween the Standard oil company and the well owners or producers of the oil region for the control of the petroleum trade;,and a reporter ewhom tie New York Sun has had at work for a month studying up -the case, fills six columns with an interesting andsuggestive ae- count of the rise end progress of the. hostility. Near the close of the civil war, when everybody was investing in the petroleum lottery, a young English- man named Samuel Andrews came to Cleveland, so poor that his wife took in sewing, and phis family lived ona shil- ling a day.. Andrews had bee a day laborer in refineries, and, believ ng that he could solve the hitherto vexing prob- lem of how to get the best and most kerosene from crude petroleum;, he set up a little still, and in six months had accomplished his purpose and cleared $500. Andrews spread out at once and set up more stills, but, needing -addition- al capital, he applied to John D. Rocke- feller, a plodding, rather dull young man of 30, who- had saved enough money at book-keeping to start] a small flour store in Cleveland; Roclefeiler, the shrewd, sharp business manager, and Andrews, the practical mechanic, "‘ pooled. their issues," and today the former is president of the Standard oil company and worth his millionts, while & few weeks ago Andrews sold out his interest in the Standard for $1,000,000 .and invested $500,000 of his previous profits in 4 tier cent. bonds. The young partners managed well in the office and in the refinery, and in a year or twothe Standard was able to swallow up its Cleveland competitors and to absorb the leading house at Pittsburg. In 1871 the_. company was reorganized with a capital of $500,000, and Peter H. Watson; once assistant secretary of the treasury and for a time president of the Erie road, show- ed President Rockefeller low he - might get the oil business of tl1e coun- try under his thumb. This was not to be done by buying -up the wells of the well region, 'but by controlling the great rail arteries of the sea board. The Standard, grown strong by the !wreck of refineries it had bought or crushed out, formed a South improvement com- pany, which; contracted with the Penn- sylvania and other trunk lines to carry Standard oil at •$1 a barrel below the regu1ar rates, and pay over to them the same amount on oil shipped by other parties. This monopoly of the carrying trade alone meant a profit of $7,000,000 a year. It also meant the final ruin of the oil producers, for the monopoly was strong enough to kill ; competition, and the producers, who had been. making and spending lavishly, every man for himself, formed a union, with a' million dollars capital. The Union got a free pipe bill through the Pennsylvania leg- islature, and by procuring a congression- al investigation of the South improve- ment company's contract, showed its illegality and procured other contracts of its own with the railroad. managers. In the first great fight of 1872 the producers were the apparent victors, but the Standard company, new repre- senting $40,000,000 and paying $1,000,- 000 a month in profits, was as deter- mined as ever to establish its monopoly, and again the producers are angrily fighting for their rights. After his de- feat, President Rockefeller kept cool, and soon had made -contracts . more shrewd, but as profi=table as ever, with the railroads. He reached out to Bal- timore and the shipping points on the Atlantic coast, buying or ruining the re- fineries there, as he had in the interior. The united pipe line, on which the pro- ducers are . dependent to get their oil from the wells to the cars was then throttled, and filially the Standard com- pany took practical control of the whole trade by building and running all -the rank cars en which crude oil is shipped to the se's, board cities. This has aroused the producers to a frenzy, for if the competition prevails, they must accept its terms or lose their all,and they have instituted proceedings in� the courts to put an end to the Lscrimina- tion of the railroads acid take; away: the charter of the united pipe line. The fierce earnestness with which the pro- ducers hung and burned Scretary of the In.ternrl Affairs McCandl� ss in ef- figy, during the recent cam4aign, te- cause he reported that their charges were not worthy of attention,' gives col- or to the report that the most desperate among them are ready to seize the -rail- roads by . force and attempt running them in defiance of competition, if the courts do not redress their wrongs.
