OIL IS SELLING MR
Special to Daily Leader.
Oiltjon, Okla., May ti. IJut little
storage oil ist changing hands or being
iffored for sale it the present tinv.
This, it is said, result, from the fact
that the storage has already passed
info the hands of concerns who will
keep it. Of the 30,000.000 barrels in
storage, ninety per cent at least is not
en the market now, and praeticallj
all the oil that is changing hands is
the fresh. This is given as one of
he main reasons for th recent bet-
ter outlook for crude prices. It is homa City trade
understood, in fai t, that recently I welcome. There is busine
premiums have been offered for crude, entire state.
