In this table, as in the body of the bulletin, orders of withdrawal, restoration, and modification are arranged under the dates of final approval, which as a rule do not correspond to the dates of recommenda- tion. For example, Petroleum Reserve No. 32, reeoommended by the Geological Survey on April 30, 1914, forwarded with favorable recommendation by the Secretary of the Interior on May 5, and approved by the President on May 6, is given under the date, ‘“‘1914, May 6.”’ Other correspondence is of course given under dates of writing. For the sake of brevity certain official titles have been shortened as follows: ‘‘Secretary”’ is used to designate the Secretary of the Interior; ‘‘Department,”’ the Interior Department; ‘‘Commissioner,”’ the Commissioner of the General Land Office; ‘‘ Director,” the Director of the Geological Survey; ‘““R. & R.,” register and receiver of a local land office.

In view of the fact that the “petroleum act”’ of February 11, 1897, does not mention gas (the “five claims act’”’ of February 12, 1903, also fails to mention gas), two recent letters are of interest as indicating the practice of considering gas as included where oil alone is named. None of the withdrawal orders have specified natural gas, although it is mentioned in some of the recommendation letters transmitting the orders. The question was raised whether gas should be reserved to the United States in patents issued for withdrawn lands under the act of July 17, 1914. The following letter resulted: APRIL 26, 1915. Dear. Mr. COMMISSIONER: ’ I inclose herewith communication from the Director of the Geological Survey, with respect to patents under the nonmineral laws for lands included within the limits of petroleum withdrawals, act July 17, 1914 (38 Stat., 509). The act in question authorizes the allowance of nonmineral entries, selections, and locations upon lands withdrawn or classified as containing phosphate, nitrate, potash, oil, gas, or asphaltic minerals, patents when issued to contain a reservation to the United States— of the deposits on account of which the lands so patented were withdrawn, classified, or reported as valuable * * * As stated by the Director, there is such an intimate association and relation between oil and natural gas that lands withdrawn because of their oil deposits were also with- drawn because of their gas content, and I agree with the conclusion of the Director that every oil withdrawal constitutes a report that the lands withdrawn are also valuable for their deposits of gas. Under these circumstances, the reservation in- serted in the patents above described should mention both oil and gas. Cordially yours, Bo SwEENEY, Assistant Secretary. The CoMMISSIONER OF THE GENERAL LAND OFFICE. ORDERS AND CORRESPONDENCRE. 59 The second letter is with regard to an application for a gas-pipe line under the act of May 21, 1896 (29 Stat., 127), which provides “that the right of way through the public lands * * * is hereby eranted to any pipe line company or corporation formed for the pur- pose of transporting oils, crude or refined.” The Commissioner, in a letter dated April 5, 1915, approved by the Secretary on April 24, 1915, says: While the Wyoming and Colorado acts do not specifically grant gas pipe lines, I am inclined to believe, in view of the close analogy between the oil and natural gas in- dustries, at least in so far as the production is concerned, that it would not be a forced construction of the act to hold it as applicable to gas pipe lines as well as to oil pipe lines. ORDERS AND CORRESPONDENCE. Under this heading orders of withdrawal, restoration, and modi- fication are arranged according to dates of final approval, which do not invariably, especially in the later orders, correspond to the dates of recommendation. For example, Petroleum Reserve No. 32 was recommended by the Geological Survey on April 30, 1914, was for- warded by the Secretary of the Interior to the President on May 5, 1914, and was approved by the President on May 6, 1914. It is placed here under the date on which it became an effective order, and is headed, ‘‘ Withdrawal of May 6, 1914.” Other correspondence is, of course, given under dates of writing. The headings have been kept down to the smallest useful length and are suggestive rather than explanatory. Letterheads have been omitted. Unless otherwise indicated, all letters and orders are dated Washington, D. C. PERIOD PRIOR TO JUNE 30, 1907. LETTER OF JANUARY 5, 1865, FROM REGISTER AND RECEIVER TO COMMISSIONER.

Very respectfully, BINGER HERMANN ‘ Commissioner. WITHDRAWAL OF APRIL 6, 1901. APRIL 6, 1901. REGISTER AND RECEIVER, Redding, California. SIRs: By my letter of December 26, 1900, to Hon. George C. Perkins, U. 8. Senate, of which you were advised January 28, 1901, the petition of James P. Eaton for the suspension from agricultural entry of certain described lands in your district alleged to contain valuable deposits of oil, was denied. I am now in receipt of a letter from D. G. Reid, Redding, California, dated March 26, 1901, enclosing the petition of Mr. Eaton for the reconsideration of my said letter of December 26, 1900, and as reasons therefor it is alleged by affidavit that on January 1, 1901, the Shasta Consolidated Oil Company, of which Mr. Eaton is president, began active operations upon said lands, and that since said time it has sunk a well upon section 2, township 32 N., R. 3 W., M. D. M., to a depth of 665 feet, and in sinking said well it has struck crude petroleum oil seepages, and that further sinking of said well will develop oil in paying quantities. It is also alleged that if oppor- tunity is offered an investigation will be duly made of all the lands sought to be suspended from entry. The petitioner states that although said lands were returned as non mineral, they have not been sought as agricultural lands and are not in fact acricultural lands but are in reality nearly valueless unless oil should be discovered in paying quantities upon them. The suspension is especially sought because the company has gone to great expense in procuring the best machinery and the best workmen for the sinking of said well, as shown by the rapid progress made therein and only requests a limited time within which to test the territory covered by its claims, which are indicated in red on a map accompanying the petition. This is _ all the evidence shown as a basis for the desired action. It is not shown how the company acquired control of the tracts which it claims is part of its territory, nor whether any mineral locations for the land had been made, although reference is made in the original petition to mineral locations upon the land. It would appear, however, that the petitioner may, without injury to the rights of other persons, be permitted a reasonable time within which to determine, by investigation, the actual character of the lands which it claims. 69089°—Bull. 623—17 5 66 PETROLEUM WITHDRAWALS AND RESTORATIONS.

WITHDRAWAL AND RESTORATION GF SEPTERIEBEER 27, iSCi. SEPTEMBER 27,.1901. REGISTER AND RECEIVER, Douglas, Wyoming. Sims: By office letter of November 10, 1900, all the public lands in townships 38 to 43 N., ranges 77 to 80 W., Wyoming, were temporarily suspended from disposal under the agricultural laws until a special agent of this office could make an examination of said lands and report relative thereto. A similar letter relative to those townships in the Buffalo land district was addressed to the local land officers at Buffalo, Wyoming. By office letter P of January 21, 1901, special agents John B. Brockenbrough and Thomas J. Jenkins were directed to make a thorough examination of the townships described as to their character as oil lands and to submit a separate report on each township and on each section therein, submitting therewith corroborated affidavits of reliable persons having personal knowledge of the mineral character of any par- ticular subdivision of these lands as to the facts and conditions on which their opinions as to the proper classification are based. There was also transmitted to said agents a copy of the petition filed in this office January 10, 1901, by Senator C. D. Clark, and signed by E. H. French and thirteen other citizens of Natrona and Johnson counties, State of Wyoming, asking a suspension from agricultural entry of the following described lands situate within the State of Wyoming: Commencing at the N. E. corner of township forty-two, range seventy-seven, thence west on same township line to the east line of range eighty-six, thence south on same range line to the north line of township forty-one, thence west two miles to the northeast corner of section 3, township forty-one, range eighty-six, thence south on section line to the Ninth Standard Parallel, thence west on same Standard Par- allel to the east line of range ninety-six, thence south on same range line to thesouth line of township thirty-one, thence east on same line to the west line of range eighty- seven, thence north on same range line to township thirty-two, thence east on same township line to range eighty-three, thence south on same range line to south line of township thirty-one, thence east on same township line to west line of range seventy- nine, thence north on same range line to the north line of township thirty-two, thence west on same township line to the west line of range eighty, thence north on same range line to the Eighth Standard Parallel, thence east on same standard line to the east line of range seventy-seven, thence north on same range line to place of beginning. . It was stated that no action had been taken on said petition nor would be taken until after the investigation ordered as to townships 38 to 43 N., Ranges 77 to 80 West, inclusive, was made, on account of the great labor which an investigation, in detail, of such an immense area would involve. The agents were, however, to consider the same generally and to submit one general report thereon corroborated by affidavits designating any particular sections which are supposed to contain oil. —— — 1 See p. 63. ORDERS AND CORRESPONDENCE. 67 By office letter P of May 1, 1901, these instructions were modified to the extent of directing the special agents not to make a detailed examination and report on each township but to make a general cursory examination except as to the townships which they were informed contained valuable oil deposits. These latter they were to examine carefully and make a report in detail. y IT am now in receipt of the report of special agent Thos. J. Jenkins, dated August 14, 1901, and that of special agent John B. Brockenbrough, dated August 20, 1901. These reports are accompanied by numerous affidavits for and against the suspension of the lands hereinbefore described from agricultural entry; also by maps illustrative of the matters stated in the reports and by exhibits showing the mineral locations and agricultural entries and filings within the territory made the subject of investigation. The reports of the agents and the evidence accompanying the same have been carefully examined, and without going into the matter in detail it would appear sufficient to say that the following townships appear to contain oil in paying quanti- ties, or such evidences of the existence of oil as would justify the suspension of the same from present disposition under the agricultural land laws that opportunity may be given to develop the same as mineral, viz: Township.

The suspension of township No. 43 N., ranges 77 to 80, W., is revoked. Claimants who made entry prior to suspension of November 10, 1900, as to the lands covered thereby, and prior to the date of this letter as to the additional lands suspended, may, however, proceed in compliance with the laws under which they claim to make final proof, at such times as may be required. If such proof is satis- factory and there is no protest or other cbhjection thereto, you will accept the same, issue final certificate thereon as in other cases and duly forward the record to this office, when, if all be found regular patent may issue thereon. A copy of this letter has been sent to the local land officers at Buffalo, Wyoming, for their information as to the lands herein described within their district. You will so note your records.

It is stated that petitioners are unable to determine whether or not the lands above. _ described include any lands granted in aid of the construction of the Dalles Military Wagon Road, and patented by the United States under that grant, or lands which have been entered by any other persons, and that if it should be found on an examination of the records of this office that any of the lands described have been so disposed of, the petition be considered as being withdrawn as to all lands found to have been patented, or which have been entered by any other person. The petition is supported by the report of M. M. Ogden, said to be an expert regard- ing lands chiefly valuable for petroleum or other mineral oils, the affidavits of I. W. Hope, Walter Moore, W. P. Keady and W. C. Elliott, a civil engineer and surveyor, and a blue print map showing the lands that are sought to be withdrawn, and the mineral locations made by thirty five mining associations represented by the peti- tioners herein. While petitioners speak of only one seepage of oil in one of the small pools formed by several springs impregnated with gypsum and sulphur, and solidified bitumen in the sand-stone and conglomerate outcroppings at several places, the showing made indicates the existence of oil on the lands described, the geological formation being - very similar to that of localities where oil has been produced in large quantities, particular reference being made in this respect to the Kern river basin in California. The purpose of the petitioners is to take steps to determine the existence of oil by actual operations, and to that end the withdrawal is asked. All of the lands described in the petition are within the granted or indemnity limits of the Dalles Military Wagon Road Company, and various tracts have been selected by said company or entered by private parties under the agricultural laws. There appears to be no good reason why the lands described by petitioners not. entered or patented should not be withdrawn, as requested, with such restrictions as seem just to both the agricultural and mineral claimants. Accordingly, the lands described in the petition are, with the exception of those tracts entered or patented, hereby withdrawn from agricultual entry for a period of one year from date hereof, provided, that failure to prosecute work with reasonable dili- gence shall be considered an abandonment and consequently good cause for revoking the withdrawal. You will so advise petitioners, through Mr. Hirsch, at Portland. Oregon, making the proper notations on the records of your office. Very respecttully, BIncER HERMANN Commissioner.

Sirs: Under date of October 15, 1901, there was received in this office a letter dated October 7, 1901, from Mr. J. N. Teal, Portland, Oregon, enclosing a petition in behalf of himself and others praying that certain lands in your district be withdrawn from agricultural entry on the ground that they are mineral (oil bearing) in character. The lands desired withdrawn are described as follows: All of sections 30, 31, 32, 33, T. 17 S., R. 43 E., W. M.; All of sections 3, 4, 5, N. 3 of Sec. 6 and S. 3 of Sec. 8, T. 188S., R. 43 E., W. M. It is stated that petitioners are unable to determine whether or not the lands above described are included in lands granted in aid of the construction of the Willamette Valley and Cascade wagon road and patented by the United States under that grant or lands which have been entered by any other persons and that if it should be found on examination of the records of this office that any of the lands described have been so disposed of the petition be considered as being withdrawn as to all lands found to have been patented or which have been entered by any other person. The petition is supported by the affidavit of I. W. Hope, setting forth the facts regarding the mineral character of the lands described therein and having attached a map showing sixteen placer mineral claims located on a portion of the lands in question and also a list of members of the various associations on whose behalf the petition is presented, and by the affidavit of F. O’Neil and W. E. Harris corroborating the affidavit of Mr. Hope. The affidavit of Mr. Hope sets out that he personally visited and examined every legal subdivision of said lands, that they consist of rolling hills which, wherever the formation is exposed, are shown by the outcroppings to consist of shales, both silicified and clay, and of sandstone and conglomerates with deposits of diatomaceous earth in close proximity ; that said lands are impregnated with gypsum, apparently deposited from solution; that on said lands there are also evidence of gas escapes which are indicated by finely divided red and yellow ochres which appear on the surface of the ground; that the sandstone strata on said lands are stained with violet stains; that a seepage of mineral oil appears at certain places on said lands and that said lands and all of them are mineral in character and are chiefly valuable as mineral lands. This report of an examination made by Mr: Hope would indicate that the geological formation of the lands it is desired to have withdrawn is very similar to that of localities where oil has been produced in large quantities and the purpose of the petitioners seem to be to take steps to determine the existence of oil by actual operations. Portions of sections 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8, T. 18 S., R. 43 E., are covered by selections of the Willamette Valley and Cascade Wagon Road Company and by entries made by 70 PETROLEUM WITHDRAWALS AND RESTORATIONS. private parties under the agricultural laws. There appears, however, to be no good reason why the lands described by petitioners not entered or patented should not be withdrawn as requested with such restrictions as seem just to both the agricultural and mineral claimants. Accordingly the lands described in the petition are, with the exception of those tracts entered or patented, hereby withdrawn from agricultural entry for the period of one year from the date hereof, provided that failure to prosecute mineral devel- opment work with reasonable diligence shall be considered an abandonment and consequently good cause for revoking the withdrawal. You will so advise petitioners through Mr. Teal, at Portland, Oregon, making the proper notations on the records of your office. Very respectiully, BIncER HERMANN, Commissioner.

S. Senate, a petition from Mr. W.C. Cowgill, Baker City, Oregon, in behalf of himself and others, praying that certain lands in your district be with- drawn from agricultural entry on the ground that they are mineral (oil bearing) in character. The lands desired withdrawn are described as follows: The NW. 1 of the NW. I, the S. 4 of the NW. 1, the SW. 4 of the NE. 4, theS. 3, of Sec. 10, and all of section 25, T. 19 S., R. 43 E., W. M.

Miles, said to be an expert regarding lands chiefly valuable for petroleum and other mineral oils and the affidavits of W. C. Cowgill, L. W. Burtch and J. D. Miles, setting forth the facts relating to the mineral character of the lands in question and the location of certain placer mining claims, forty-three in number, thereon. The petition is also accompanied by diagrams of said townships showing said mineral locations and the names oi the associations claiming the same. It is stated in the report of Mr. Miles that: The subdivisions referred to consist of silicified and clay shales, sandstones, coarse and close grained, and what may be styled a sub-strata of pebbly conglomerates. There are deposits of infusorial earth largely dispersed over the lands in question with a considerable portion of gypsious clays. The underlying formation is clay, sandstone and calcareous concretions, white calcareous shales, fossiliferous concretions, car- boniferous lime and time shale. The formation generally is such as to give the lands in question a high character as lands peculiar to oil formations on the Pacific Coast. There are indications on the surface of finely disintegrated red and yellow ochres which have suffered dessecation from ferruginious deposits which apparently were carried to the surface by the action, as indications seem to show, of volatile hydro- carbons. The sandstone strata is impregnated and stained with deposits which would result from such source as soon as the sandstone is exposed to the air. There are in places deposits of lignite of a low carboniferous form and in some place along the dry bed of creek running into the Malheur River may be found within the escarp- ments of the foothills down to the outcropping rim-rocks of sandstone indications of solidified bitumen which in my opinion are the deposits in residuous form of liquid hydrocarbons. The land in question is unfit for agricultural or pasturage purposes. At several points along the dry bed of the creek shown on the township plat of township 19 S., ORDERS AND CORRESPONDENCE. fia | R. 44 E., prepared by L. W. Burtch, U. 8. deputy mineral surveyor, there is to be found dark carbonaceous shales which prove the existence of liquid hydrocarbons which leads me to the conclusion that this section of country will on development produce petroleum with a paraffine base. This showing indicates that there is a possibility that the lands described, on devel- opment, will be found to be oil landsand as none of the tracts have been entered or otherwise disposed of I see no objection to the withdrawal thereof as requested, with such restrictions as seem just to both agricultural and mineral claimants. Accordingly the lands described in the petition are hereby withdrawn from agri- cultural entry for a period of one year from date hereof, provided that failure to prose- cute mineral development work with reasonable diligence shall be considered an abandonment and consequently good cause for revoking the withdrawal. You will so advise petitioners, through Mr. Cowgill at Baker City, Oregon, making the proper notations on the records of your office. Very respectfully, BinceER HERMANN Commissioner.

SIR: . Herewith is a petition from the Union Pacific Railroad Company, wherein that company sets forth that Sec. 27, T. 15 N., R. 118 W., Evanston, Wyoming, land district, is one of the alternate odd-numbered sections within the limits of the grant made to aid in the construction of the Union Pacific railroad; that the company’s main line of road has been changed so as to extend across this section; that the company has had a coal mine thereon since 1899, from which coal has been and is being taken in large quantities, and that the opening and development of this mine was at an expenditure to the company of over $175,000. It also appears from this petition and the files of your office, that the company, in the course of an endeavor to procure a supply of water for its said mining operations and the use of its employes engaged therein, sunk a well upon said section in 1900, in which some evidences of oil were found, but which did not result in the production of a supply of good water. Said petition states, in substance, that there has been no discovery of valuable deposits of oil in said section; that it is not valuable for other minerals than coal; and that it is of very great value for its coal deposits. ee ce LC The Department will, at the earliest moment, send a special inspector to make a thorough and impartial investigation of the situation respecting the known character of this section, that is, as to whether, under the development then existing, it is more valuable for oil than for coal. The railroad company and the oil prospectors and pro- testants will be accorded a full opportunity to be heard before the inspector and to present all existing proofs to him, and the extent and character of the oil discovéry in the well sunk by the railroad company will be carefully investigated by him. The Department will then, upon full consideration of the matter, promptly deter- mine {whether said section passed to the railroad company under its grant or is excepted therefrom. As to other unpatented alternate odd-numbered sections within the limits of the grant | which are not occupied or used for any important purpose, but which are supposed (as contradistinguished from known) to contain oil deposits, and which are attempted to be prospected and explored for that reason, the consideration of the re- quested issuance of patents will be deferred a reasonable time to permit such pros- pecting and exploration to be thoroughly done wherever it is attempted in good faith. If the work of prospecting or exploration is retarded or interfered with by the railroad company, consideration of the requested issuance of patents will be further deferred accordingly. .

The lands so withdrawn are described as follows: All of sections 1, 2, 11, 12, 13, 14, 23, 24, 25, 26 and 35 in Township 15, South, Range 43, East of Willamette Meridian. All of sections 7, 8, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34 and 35 in Town- ship 15, South, Range 44, East of Willamette Meridian. Pibercsections |, 2,3, 4,5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17, 21, 22, 23:24, 25, 26, 27 and 35, in Township 16, South, Range 44 Hast of Willamette Meridian. All the sections lying in the west half of Township 16, South, Range 45, East of Willamette Meridian, excepting therefrom section 16. All the sections lying in the east half of Township 17, South, Range 44 East of Wulamette Meridian, excepting therefrom section 36. All the sections lying in the west half of Township 17, South, Range 45, East of Willamette Meridian, excepting therefrom section 16. I am now in receipt of application of the Malheur Oil Company by its president, Solomon Hirsch, and secretary Isaac N. Fleischner, to extend the withdrawal for an additional period of not less than one year. The application is supported by the affidavits of 1. W. Hope, W. G. Hope and W. P. Keady and is based upon the following state of facts: The Malheur Oil Company is the owner of 64 o1l locations of 160 acres each of these lands, the locations having been made by 64 associations of individuals and by them sold to the Malheur Oil Company. The company began the work of developing these alleged oil fields late in 1901 and has since expended a sum in excess of $12,600 in the construction of buildings, the purchase and installation of machinery on the ground, payment for labor and for supplies, fuel and other incidental expenses. A sufficient plant has been installed to sink a well 3,000 feet and a well has been sunk to a depth of over 800 feet. All this development work is on the N. 4 of Sec. 29, T. 15 N., R. 44 W.2 It is further set forth in the application that it is the intention of the company to carry on the work with all diligence and should the well at present being sunk fail to disclose the presence of oil in commercial quantities to sink another well or wells with a view to giving the lands a thorough test, but that in view of the uncertainty of work of this character the company can not safely engage in the development of these lands in the manner desired without further assurance that its title to these claims will he protected from agricultural entry. These lands comprise 103 sections in six contiguous townships and up to date, though nine months have elapsed since the withdrawal, no development work has been done or even commenced at but the one point on section 29. The suspension under the withdrawal made October 7, 1901, provided that ‘‘failure to prosecute work with reasonable diligence shall be considered an abandonment and consequently good cause for revoking the order.’’ It is possible that this proviso was not fully under- stood and that the position of. this office may be more clearly defined it will be required of persons and corporations working under the privilege granted by the extension of the period of withdrawal for one year, to October 7, 1903, which is hereby 1 See p. 67. 2 Should read T. 15 S., R. 44 FB. 714 PETROLEUM WITHDRAWALS AND RESTORATIONS. ordered, that they make earnest and diligent efforts to exploit these lands for oil and that the land shall be prospected and exploited in various and other places than is shown to have been done during the past year and that operations at different points must be entered upon and continued with reasonable diligence so that at the end of this extended period it will have been satisfactorily demonstrated whether or not the lands er any portion thereof are in fact oil lands. It is believed that if the parties interested in prospecting these lands will enter upon their work in good faith and make earnest and diligent efforts to ascertain the true character of these lands that the exten- sion herein allowed will be ample for such purpose. Make proper note hereof upon vour records and duly advise the applicants. Very respectfully, BINGER HERMANN Commissioner. 2 RESTORATION OF OCTOBER 6, 1902. REGISTER AND RECEIVER, Los Angeles, California. SIRS: Sy By office letter ‘‘N ” of August 11, 1900,! townships 2 and 38., ranges 1, 2 and 3 W., S. B. M., were suspended from disposition under the agricultural land laws upon alle- gations that same contained deposits of mineral (oil). During the latter part of March and the early part of April, 1902, a special agent of this Department visited said town- ships, examined the same and interviewed parties living therein, among others Mr. Arthur G. Munn et al., who filed the allegation that said townships contain mineral. The special agent reports that he finds no evidences of mineral upon any of said lands and no attempt at development work except on the north half of section 4, T. 3 §., R. 2 W., where three wells have been sunk. The first of these wells was sunk in an attempt to discover oil but at the depth of 750 feet a 9-inch flow of water was struck whereupon the parties who were boring same abandoned their intention of exploring for oil and are using said water for rigation purposes, and that the two other wells sunk upon said section were sunk for the purpose of obtaining water for irrigating. The special agent states that the parties who filed the mineral allegations now state that after prospecting over the lands they are satisfied that none of said lands contain oil except the north half of section 4, T. 3 S., R. 2 W., upon which tract they decline to express an opinion. Numerous other parties were interviewed by the agent and all state that no oil has ever been discovered upon the lands in question or adjacent thereto. The special agent therefore concludes that the lands have no value whatever for mineral but do possess some value for grazing and agricultural purposes and recom- mends that the suspension be revoked. The said townships were returned as agricultural by the survey thereof and since the suspension no allegations have been made as to the mineral character of said lands which would justify any further investigation by this office or the further suspension — of the tracts mentioned. In view of these facts, and of the report submitted hy the special agent, the lands in townships 2 and 3 8., ranges 1, 2 and 3 W., 8. B. M., are hereby relieved from the suspension imposed thereupon by office letter ““N” of August 11, 1900. Make the proper notations upon your records.

Senate, requesting, for reasons stated, that the period during which said lands shall remain so withdrawn be extended for a further period of one year. The reasons presented, which are in substance that the petitioners have been unable as yet to determine with certainty whether said lands are valuable for oil, appear to me to be sufficient on which to base favorable action. Accordingly the suspension of the lands described from agricultural entry is hereby extended for a period of one year from date hereof with the same proviso made a part of the former withdrawal, viz: That failure to prosecute mineral development work with reasonable diligence shall be considered an abandonment and consequently good cause for revoking the withdrawal. This withdrawal will expire by limitation in time without further action by this office, unless the same is officially extended.

REGISTER AND RECEIVER, Los Angeles, California. - SrRs: Township 23 8., R. 18 E., and townships 24 S., Ranges 17, 18 and 19 E., M. D. M., were alleged to contain mineral (011) in a general protest filed in this office January 29, 1900, and the lands therein were suspended from disposition under the agricultural land laws by telegram ‘‘P”’ of February 28, 1900.? Acting under general instructions from this office, a special agent visited and examined said townships in September 1902 and reports that so far as he has been able to ascertain no oil or other mineral has been discovered upon any of said lands and that no attempt at mineral development is now being made; that the lands are apparently valueless except for agricultural and grazing purposes. He interviewed and obtained the affidavits of three residents of Tp. 24 S., R. 19 E., and all agree that the townships mentioned are chiefly valuable for grazing and that to their knowledge no minerals have been discovered thereon and further that no development work is being prosecuted on any of the said lands. Upon the information obtained from such examination and interviews, the special agent recommends that the lands be relieved from suspension. The townships in question were returned as agricultural by the official surveyors and I fail to find any specific protest against any tracts therein. On a blue print accom- panying the general protest hereinbefore mentioned, the Eureka Consolidated Fuel and Oil Co. is shown to claim portions of Secs. 12 and 14, Tp. 23 8., R. 18 E., but the address of said company is unknown to me. However, the removal of the order of suspension will not affect the rights of said company or of others, if there be any claiming any portion of said lands under the mining laws and in view of the report and recommendation of the special agent and of the fact that no one is now before the office with any specific claim or protest adverse thereto, said Townships 23 S., R. 18 E. and 248., Ranges 17, 18 and 19 E., M. D. M., are hereby relieved from the suspension placed thereon by telegram ‘“‘P”’ of February 28, 1900. Make proper notations upon your records.

The COMMISSIONER OF THE GENERAL LAND OFFICE. Str: In a communication addressed to your office by this Department, June 3, 1902, relating to the unpatented alternate odd-numbered sections of Jand within the limits of the grant to the Union Pacific Railroad company, in the Evanston land district, Wyoming, it was ordered that action upon requests by the said company for the issu- ance of patents to embrace said lands be deferred for the time being to permit such investigation and consideration as would enable the Department to determine whether, to what extent, and for what time, the further issuance of patents to said company for lands in said district shall be withheld, in order. that such lands may be prospected and explored for oil deposits, supposed (as contradistinguished to known) to be con- tained therein, by persons who may, in good faith, wish to undertake such prospecting and exploration. ; Since the date of said communication an investigation has been made of said alter- nate odd-numbered sections, under the supervision of this Department. As a partial result of that investigation, you are directed that the consideration of requests for patent by the railroad company need be no longer deferred as to any odd-numbered sections of land within its grant which le east of range 112 in said land district. As to all such lands you will proceed with the administration of the company’s grant, the same as though the order of June 3, 1902, had not been made. Requests for patents for alternate odd-numbered sections within the company’s grant, which lie west of range 112 in said land district, will remain suspended until more definite direction is given with respect thereto, which will be done as soon as the evidence relating to such lands and taken at said investigation can be carefully considered. Very respectfully, K. A. HrrcHcocxk Secretary. RESTORATION OF JANUARY 7, 1903. JANUARY 7, 1903. REGISTER AND RECEIVER, Visalia, California. SIRs: Telegram “‘P” of this office dated February 28, 1900,? suspended ‘‘from disposition until further orders” a large number of townships in the Visalia, Los Angeles and San Francisco land districts upon the general allegation that said lands contain valu- able deposits of petroleum. Office letter “‘N” of July 19, 1900, addressed to your office, advised you that— Suspensions from disposition of certain townships by telegrams of February 26th and 28th, will be continued for a reasonable time pending inquiry as to the true char- acter of the lands which is now in progress. These suspensions do not include mineral lands. By office letters ‘‘R.” of February 18, 1902, and ‘‘N ” of October 30, 1902, aspecial agent was directed to examine certain of the townships included in said order of suspension and to submit report as to whether in his opinion same should not be relieved from 1 See p. 72. 2 See p. 61. 78 PETROLEUM WITHDRAWALS AND RESTORATIONS. such suspension. JI am now in receipt of the report of said special agent, dated December 15, 1902, wherein he reports that in Townships, 8. Ranges E., M. D. M. 13 10 HS Hat 14 ifs 14 12 15 Tel 15 12 16 1 16 13 16 14 Wy 12 there have been no attempts, so far as he is able to discover, to produce oil and that the surface indications do not warrant the further suspension of the lands on account of their mineral possibilities. In townships 17 S., R. 14 E., 188., 13 E., 188., 14E.,18 8.15 E.,198. 14E., and 19S. 16 E., he states that there have been many attempts to discover oil but that drilling has been abandoned as no trace thereof could be found. He states further that all of the lands hereinbefore mentioned are susceptible of fairly good grazing for from three to four months in the year and that none of them are strictly agricultural. I have carefully examined the records of this office and find that mest of the lands hereinbefore described were returned as agricultural by the survey thereof. No mineral entries appear to have been made in any of said townships during recent years and there is nothing upon the records to indicate that attempts are being made to enter same asmineral.

GotlLe D482) In a communication addressed to your office by this Department June 3, 1902,! it was ordered that action upon requests by the Union Pacific Railroad Company for the issuance of patents to the unpatented alternate odd numbered sections of land within the limits of said company’s grant in the Evanston land district, Wyoming, be deferred for the time being, to permit such investigation and consideration as would enable the Department to determine whether, to what extent, and for what time, the further issuance of patents to said company for lands in said district shall be withheld in order that such lands may be prospected and explored for oil deposits supposed (as contradistinguished from known) to be contained therein, by persons who may, in good faith, wish to undertake such prospecting and exploration. Subsequently to the date of said communication, an investigation of said alternate odd numbered sections was made, under the direction of this Department. As a partial result of that investigation, your office was instructed, by departmental com- munication of December 30, 1902,? that the consideration of requests for patent by said company need no longer be deferred as to any odd numbered sections of land within its grant lying east of range 112 in said land district; that as to all such lands the administration of the company’s grant should be proceeded with the same as though the order of June 3, 1902, had not been made; and that requests for patent to alternate odd numbered sections within the company’s grant lying west of range 112 in said land district should remain suspended until more definite direction could be given with respect thereto. More definite direction will now be given. As the result of a full and careful examination and consideration of the evidence taken in the investigation before named, your office is directed as follows: (1) To suspend until December 1, 1903, all proceedings looking to the patenting, under the Union Pacific railroad land grant, of any lands within the following limits in said Evanston land district, to-wit: Beginning on the western boundary of the State of Wyoming at the point where the same intersects the south line of township 13 north, and running thence east along said township line to its intersection with the eastern line of range 117 west, and running thence north along said range line to its intersection with the southern line of township 15 north, and running thence east along said township line to its intersection with the eastern line of range 115 west, and running thence north along said range line, with its off-sets, to its intersection with the north line of township 21 north, and running thence along said township 1 See p. 72. 2 Seo p. 77. 69089°—Bull. 623—17——6 82 PETROLEUM WITHDRAWALS AND RESTORATIONS. line to its intersection with the said western boundary of the State of Wyoming, and running thence south along said State boundary to the place of beginning. (2) To withhold and suspend, until December 1, 1903, irom entry, location and disposition of every character, under any of the public land laws other than the mining laws, ‘all public lands within the limits hereinbefore specifically described; but this shall not, of itself, delay or prevent the recognition or perfection of any bona fide claim heretofore initiated under any of the public land laws to any public lands within said limits. (3) To relieve from the orders of June 3, 1902, and December 30, 1902, before named, all the odd numbered sections within said railroad land grant which are not embraced within the limits hereinbefore specifically described, and as to the lands so relieved, to proceed with the administration and adjustment of said land grant as if the re- strictive orders of June 3, 1902, and December 30, 1902, had not been issued. (4) Upon and after December 1, 1903, and without awaiting further direction, to proceed with the administration and adjustment of said railroad land grant as to the alternate odd numbered sections within said land grant which are also within the lim- its hereinbefore specifically described, and in so doing to consider and determine, in due course and according to the usual rules, the then known character of the lands within said limits sought to be patented under said railroad land grant, and to con- sider and determine, in due course and according to the usual rules, all claims asserted under the mining laws to any of said lands. (5) Upon and after December 1, 1903, and without awaiting further direction, to treat the public lands within the limits hereinbefore specifically described as relieved from this order of suspension, and to permit entry, location and disposition thereof according to their nature and in conformity with law. The purpose of this order is to permit, encourage and protect, so far as the Depart- ment can do so, but within the time herein named, the exploration and exploitation of the unpatented alternate odd numbered sections within said railroad land grant which are within the limits hereinbefore specifically described, and of the public lands within said limits, for the purpose of ascertaining and demonstrating whether, as claimed, such lands or any of them are mineral in character, in that they are chiefly valuable for their oil or other mineral deposits; but in justice to the railroad company, whose line of railroad has long since been completed in conformity with the land grant act, and in justice to others who may desire to take any of the public lands within said limits under any of the public land laws other than the mining laws, it is neces- sary that this order of suspension shall not be operative longer than until December 1, 1903, that being deemed ample time within which, in addition to the exploration and exploitation heretofore had, to fairly develop the character of these lands. The direction herein given should be promptly communicated to the local land officers by telegraph, as well as by letter, but such direction will not in any manner apply to any lands heretofore patented to the railroad company or to others.

Sirs: By office letter of August 11, 1900,1 the land in townships 1 8. of ranges 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20 W., S. B. M., were suspended from disposition under the agricultural land laws upon allegation that same was valuable for its deposits of mineral (oil). February 13, 1902, you transmitted to this office, in connection with the record in case of the application of Jose Serrano to enter under the homestead laws a portion of section 9, T.18., R. 20 W., astatement by Mr. H. W. Duncan to the effect that the suspension of said lands has resulted in hardship to settlers and to those desiring to settle upon the public domain and has served no good purposes and that notwithstanding the fact that considerable prospecting has been done no oil whatever has been discovered. Said record is also accompanied by a petition signed by William F. Swinney and four other persons who state that they are settlers in T. 1 8., R. 20 W., and request that the order of suspension be revoked for the reason that the lands withdrawn are non- mineral in character and have no value except for farming and grazing purposes. Mr. A. W. Marsh, of Los Angeles, has filed in this office a number of statements to the effect that the lands in question are of no value except for their deposits of mineral and that if the order of suspension is allowed to remain, the mineral prospectors will be enabled to enlist capital to assist in the development of the deposits of mineral therein contained, but if the order of suspension is revoked it will be impossible to obiain money to complete the work. The statement is accompanied by several affidavits from persons who state that they are familiar with the lands in question and that in their opinion the whole district is essentially mineral except a few tillable spots now occupied by homesteaders. Acting under instructions received from this office, a special agent visited the land in question during the month of July, examined same and interrogated a number of persons resident in the vicinity, obtaining their affidavits as to the character of the land and other facts pertinent to the investigation. The special agent now reports that careful inquiry of persons resident in the vicinity failed to elicit anything which would show that the lands have any value for oil or minerals of any kind. One well was bored in T. 18., R. 20 W., some time ago but instead of oil, water was found and the well wasabandoned. He also found, in Sec. 27, T.18., R. 17 W., upon the home- stead claim of John Henry an incline of about 100 feet and a shaft fifteen feet in depth in none of which was any discovery of oil or mineral made. He further reports that he did not find, in any portion of the townships hereinbefore desciibed, any oil seepages, oil springs, surface or other indications of oil or mineral which would war- rant the lands being classed as mineral in character. The only indication of oil he discovered was a slight coating in some small wells or seams of hard rock on the home- stead claim of John Henry. But the prospecting in which Mr. Henry is engaged has up to this time failed to result in the discovery or development of oil or mineral of any kind. The said report is accompanied by the affidavits of a number of persons resident near the lands who state that in their opinion no discoveries of mineral sufi- cient to warrant the continuance of the order of suspension have been made upon the lands in question; that while the land is rough and broken there are numerous fertile and tillable valleys, while the mountain sides will afford grazing for cattle thus making the land more valuable for agricultural and grazing purposes than for mineral. The special agent also forwards an affidavit made by Mr. A. W. Marsh which states in a general way that he has examined the lands in question and found oil seepages, 1See p. 62. 88 PETROLEUM WITHDRAWALS AND RESTORATIONS. deposits of shale, etc., which indicate that the township is underlaid by deposits of oil. Upon careful consideration of the whole matter, the conclusion is reached that the public interest will be best subserved by a removal of the order of suspension from said land. The said order of suspension, made August 11, 1900, was intended to be temporary only, giving the prospectors time to explore and develop the district and ~ it would appear that ample time has elapsed within which to have demonstrated the existence of mineral therein, if any does exist. It would appear, however, from the statement of the special agent, that ali attempts to bore for oil have resulted in failures and that no indication of the existence of valuable deposits of mineral have been found therein. ‘The said order of suspension of August 11, 1900, is accordingly hereby revoked.

All of sections 1, 2; 3, 4,5, 6; 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17, 21;'22;23n24 eae Gs 27 and 35, in Township 16, South, Range 44 East of Willamette meridian. All the sections lying in the west half of Township 16, South, Range 45, East a Willamette meridian, excepting therefrom section 16. All the sections lying in the east half of Township 17, South, Range 44, East of Willamette meridian, excepting therefrom section 36. July 7, 1902, there was received an application from the Malheur Oil Company, of Portland, Oregon, asking for an extension of said withdrawal for the reason that while said company began the work of development of their claims upon said lands in 1901 and had expended a considerable sum in the construction of buildings, in- stallation of machinery, and so forth, they had not had sufficient opportunity to give the lands a thorough test. Accordingly, by office letter of July 21, 1902, the said suspension of the lands hereinbefore described was extended to October 7, 1903, pro- vided petitioners ‘‘make earnest and diligent efforts” to exploit the lands for oil. The periods of suspension as fixed by said office letters of October 7, 1901, and July 21, 1902, have expired and it is believed that no good reason exists for the further suspension of the lands in question. If locations and discoveries of oil have been made upon any of the lands in question, the locators may protect their interests in the premises should any of said tracts be entered under the agricultural land laws, by filing in the proper local land office their duly corroborated protests. You will accordingly make such notations upon your records as will show that the lands are 1 See p. 67. 2 See additional lands in letter from Acting Commissioner to Register and Receiver, dated November 17, 1903 (p. 89). ~e— ORDERS AND CORRESPONDENCE. 39 no longer suspended, but are subject to disposition under the appropriate public land laws.

M., were suspended from disposition under the agricultural land laws on account of their alleged mineral (oil) character. A special agent of this office has recently examined the lands therein and reports that same are rough and mountainous and have for many years been used principally for the grazing of cattle and sheep; that on Sec. 18, T. 23 S., R. 17 E., he found ‘‘an oil or tar spring” and that near this spring two q wells have been bored for oil in one of which he was informed that some oil had been } found but not in paying quantities. Thatin T. 23S., R. 16 E., four wells were bored | for oil, about three years ago, which were practically failures and that since that time no attempt has been made to develop oil on any portion of the lands in town- 4 ships referred to so far as he was able to ascertain. He recommends that the lands ¥ be relieved from further suspension. It would not appear from statements contained 4 in said report that sufficient indications of mineral exist in said townships to justify a, further suspension thereof and no objection appearing thereto upon the records of this office, T. 23 S., R. 16 and 17 E., M.

Sirs: By letter ‘““N” of September 5, 1900,? certain townships in your district, among them townships 18 N., R. 5 W., and 17 and 21 N., R. 6 W., M. D. M., were suspended from disposition under the agricultural land laws on account of their alleged mineral (oil) character. Said action appears to have been based in part upon a petition filed by Ben F. Geis of Willows, California, and others, through Hon. V. H. Metcalf, House of Representatives, in which petition it was stated that townships 18 and 19, 20 and ’ 21 N., R. 6 W., M. D. M., are in a locality where a number of oil locations had been made and petroleum discovered. It was stated in the affidavit accompanying said petition that a corporation had been formed for the development of the alleged oil deposits and that it was the intention of persons connected therewith to proceed as rapidly as possible to thoroughly investigate and explore the entire tract and it was asked that the land be withdrawn and suspended from entry until a complete inves- _ 1 See p. 61. 2 See p. 63. : ORDERS AND CORRESPONDENCE. 93 tigation and thorough development could be had. A special agent of this office has recently made a personal examination of townships 18 N., R. 5 W., and 17 N., R. 6 W., M. D. M., and reports that although many mineral locations were made upon lands in said locality, apparently for speculative purposes there does not appear to have been any attempt to drill for or discover oil either upon the lands in said town- ship or in the immediate vicinity thereof. He states that he has not examined T. 21 N., R. 6 W. recently but has examined the territory upon three different occa- sions during the past three years, has also made diligent inquiry of every person to whom he was recommended as having knowledge of conditions in the locality and so far as he could learn there has been no mineral discovery in the township. A well has been drilled to the depth of 2500 feet in the township immediately south but no oil in paying quantities has been discovered. He expresses the opinion that in view of the fact that no development work has been done or mineral discovered upon the three townships last described, although same have been suspended for more than three years, that the lands therein should be opened for entry under the agricultural land laws. In letter dated August 26, 1903, you stated that in the ter- ritory withdrawn by letter of September 5, 1900, there has not been to your knowledge any discovery of oil in paying quantities and at present no prospecting is being done for the purpose of developing oil therein; that frequently inquiry is made at your office by citizens who desire to make homestead entries on the land but who are pre- vented from so doing by the suspension, and express the opinion that the lands in question have no mineral value but are valuable only for agricultural and grazing purposes. The statement made in the special agent’s report are not controverted by anything of record in this office and it would appear that during the period which has elapsed since said suspension, as above stated, more than three years, the peti- tioners hereinbefore named, and any other persons interested in the mineral develop- ment of the lands have had ample opportunity to explore and develop same. In view of this fact, and of the fact that it appears from the special agent’s report that no oil has been discovered upon any of the lands in question, it is believed that no good reason exists for the further suspension of the lands in question. If locations and discoveries of mineral have been made upon any of the tracts in question, the locators may protect their interests in the premises, should any of the tracts be entered under the agricultural laws, by filing in the local land office their duly corroborated protests. Accordingly, in view of the foregoing, townships 18 N., R. 5 W., and 17 and 21 N., ranges 6 W., M. D. M., are hereby relieved from suspension. Make the proper notation upon your records.

SIRs: By letter ‘‘N” of this office dated September 5, 1900! an umber of townships in your district were suspended from disposition under the agricultural land laws upon allegations that they contained deposits of mineral (oil). Said action appears to have been based in part upon a petition filed by Ben. F. Geis of Willows, California, and others through Hon. V. H. Metcali, House of Representatives, in which petition it was stated that townships 18, 19, 20, and 21, N. R.6 W. M. D. M. are in a locality where a number of oil locations had been made and petroleum discovered. It was stated in the affidavit accompanying said petition that a corporation had been formed for the development of the alleged oil deposits and that it was the intention of the parties connected therewith to proceed as rapidly as possible to thoroughly investigate and explore the entire tract and it was requested that the lands be withdrawn and suspended from entry until a complete investigation and thorough development could be had. January 14, 1904, Twps. 18 N. R. 5 W and 17, and 21 N. R6 W were upon recommendation of a Special Agent of this office relieved from suspension. I am now in receipt of a further report from the Special Agent to the effect that he has made three separate trips into the suspended territory and from personal knowl- edge gained from examinations of the land and from diligent inquiry, states that active development work for oil is being prosecuted in only four places in the vicinity of the suspended territory: viz. 1. By Chehalis Oil and Mg. Co. Sec 13, Twp. 14N. R., 6 W. (not in suspended terri- tory) where considerable natural gas has been developed and good prospects for oil appear. 2. By Bear Creek Oil Co. on patented land in Sec. 10 Twp. 14 N. Rd W. 3. By Williams Oil Co. on patented land in Secs 16 and 18, Twp 15,,N. R 4 W: claimed to have discovered a good grade of oil. 4. By Washington and California Oil Co. near town of Fruito in Twp. 20 N. R 5 W., well drilled 2500 feet deep without striking oil, but still hopeful and endeavoring to raise funds to continue work. As a result of his investigation the Agent recommends that the W4 Sec. 6. W4 Sec 7 and NW} Sec. 19, Twp. 14, N. R 5.W, Secs. 6 and 7 Twp. 15, N. R 4 W and all of Twp. 20 N.

The remaining land suspended by order of September 5 1900 should in his opinion be relieved. In letter dated August 26, 1903, you stated that frequently inquiry 1s made at your office by citizens who desire to make homestead entries upon the lands, but who are prevented from so dcing by the suspension, and in your opinion the lands in question have no mineral value but are chiefly valuable for agricultural and grazing purposes. The statements made in the Special Agent’s report are not controverted by any- thing of record in this office and it would appear that during the period which has elapsed since said suspension petitioners herebefore named and any other persons interested in the mineral devélopment of the lands have had ample opportunity to explore and develop same. In view of the foregoing it is believed that the public interest will be best subserved by a removal of the order of suspension from the follow- ing lands and said order of Sept. 5, 1900 is hereby revoked to that extent.

The said township has recently been examined by a special agent of this office who reports that on the NW of Sec. 22 a well has been bored to the depth of about one thousand feet in which he is informed a trace of oil was found and that another bore will soon be made on the section. On the southwest quarter of said section he found a “gas spring.’”’ On section 23 two wells have been bored, in one of which the tools were lost whereupon the well was abandoned; in the second well oil was discovered at a depth of about 680 feet. On the south half of section 24 he found surface indications of oil such as oil springs, asphaltum, etc. He states that the land in the section mentioned is barren and appears to be absolutely worthless for agricultural purposes. As a result of his examination of the land he recommends that all of the township except sec- tions 22, 23 and 24, be relieved from suspension. Upon consideration of the matter it would appear that no further reason exists for the suspension of the lands which the agent recommends should be relieved except unsurveyed section 29 which it is alleged in a protest filed in this office, contained indications of oil and is in possession, under a location made April 22, 1899, of the Western Oil and Refining Company. Accordingly all lands in T. 25 S., ranges 18 E., M. D. M., except sections 22, 23, 24 and 29, are hereby relieved from suspension.

M., was suspended from agricultural entry by reason of its alleged petroleum bearing character. An examination of the lands embraced therein having been directed by this office with the view of ascertaining whether any further necessity exists for continuing the suspension, Chief of Field Division Mr. E. C. Ryan, has reported under date of March 16, 1906, to the effect that he has made a careful personal examination of the 1 See p. 61. 2 See p. 63. 3 Should have read T. 17 S., R. 11 £., and was so interpreted by Land Office. yy ORDERS AND CORRESPONDENCE. 99 conditions in the said township and found that, although several prospect wells had been drilled to depths varying from six hundred to fifteen hundred feet, in which some slight traces of oil had been found, no well had been sunk that furnished oil in paying quantities and that practically all efforts to develop oil in said township have been abandoned. Ryan further reported that on section 24 an inferior quality of coal had been dis- covered, but its use has been discontinued on account of its worthlessness for fuel, it being largely mixed with earth and rock. He expresses the opinion that a further continuation of the suspension is unnecessary. In view of the foregoing and the fact that the publication of the usual proof notices is sufficient to place any mineral claimant on his guard in the protection of his rights, the said order of December 19, 1900, is hereby revoked.

My pEAR Dr. Situ: I have just heard indirectly that you and Mr. Garfield and Mr. Pinchot are to be in this part of the country some time during the summer. While you are on the coast I hope that you may induce Mr. Garfield to come up here and see if something can not be done to settle the land question around here. The area we are mapping this summer, including the Coalinga, McKittrick, Midway and Sunset oil districts con- tains the only vacant land, giving promise of being oil productive, that I know of in this part of the state. This land which, with few exceptions, is absolutely worthless except for oil land, is being taken up by homesteaders, by scrip and in various other ways. The legitimate oil promoters are anxious that something be done to safeguard the interests of those who are trying to gain title to the land by legitimate develop- ment, such as drilling. Will you not take up this matter with Mr. Garfield? Very truly yours, RatpH ARNOLD EXTRACT FROM LETTER OF AUGUST 13, 1907, FROM RALPH ARNOLD TO DIRECTOR. CoALINGA, CAL. Aug. 18, 1907. Dr. Geo.

Sir: I am informed by Mr. Ralph Arnold of the Geological Survey, who is at present investigating the oil resources and making a geological map of Coalinga and adjacent fields of California, that certain government lands near Coalinga, presumably oil bearing, are being entered under the homestead laws. J am further informed that upon the completion of the geological work in the district, it will be possible to indicate with considerable accuracy just what lands are mineral bearing. Until the completion of the detailed map which will be furnished during the coming winter, Mr. Arnold requests that all government land lying within the territory ORDERS AND CORRESPONDENCE, 103 enumerated on the accompanying page, be temporarily withdrawn from homestead entry. It is said that nearly, if not quite all of the land mentioned is unfitted for agricultural purposes, and that most of the entries recently made in this region under the homestead and scrip laws are of such a character as to indicate to the most casual observer that the mineral and not the agricultural resources are the ones sought. In view of the conditions I hereby direct you to temporarily withdraw the lands described in the accompanying list. Very respectfully, GrorGe W. Wooprurr Acting Secretary.

LETTER OF FEBRUARY 24, 1908, FROM DIRECTOR TO SECRETARY. FEBRUARY 24, 1908. The Honorable, The SEcRETARY OF THE INTERIOR, Washington, D. C. Sir: 4 I have the honor to call your attention to page 15 (inclosed herewith) of the Daily Consular and Trade Report of the Department of Commerce and Labor, of Saturday, February 15, 1908, which directs attention to the superiority of liquid fuels, that is, petroleum products in one or another form, on steamships, and also to the policy of the British Government in using such liquid fuels as emergency fuels in battle ships; also to the editorial on page 3 of The Oil Industry of January 15, 1908. It will be easy, if desired, to multiply the authoritative statements already in print concerning the superiority of liquid fuel for the Navy. For that reason I have to recommend that the filing of claims to oil lands in the State of California be suspended in order that the Government may continue ownership of valuable supplies of liquid fuel in this region where all fuel is expensive. It is evident from the many reports on the superiority of liquid fuel that the ques- tion of its adoption is simply a question as to the price at which suitable petroleum products can be purchased. The present rate at which the oil lands in California are being patented by private parties will make it impossible for the people of the United States to continue owner- ship of oil lands there more than a few months. After that, the Government will be obliged to repurchase the very oil that it has practically given away. The inadequacy of the coal supply on the Pacific Coast is well known to everyone who has made the subject of fuel a study. The local supply is derived entirely from a few mines on Puget Sound and one locality in eastern Washington. There are also some coal developments in Oregon, but no deposits here of a quality much above a lignite. In California the supply is limited toa small production of poor coal and coal briquettes about Mount Diablo, near San Francisco; and one mine in Monterey County, which is producing a small quantity of a fairly good bituminous which is not being marketed as yet, owing to poor transportation facilities. The _ great bulk of the coal used on the Pacific Coast is obtained from our western inland fields or from Australia. Regarding the petroleum supply, the production last year did not meet the require- ments of the trade, and the reserve stock was drawn on to meet the demand. At present the rate of increase in demand is more rapid than the increase in production, and this, taken in connection with the great falling off in certain of the older fields, due to depletion of the sands and to flooding by water of sands which otherwise might be productive, shows how important is this matter of a conservation of the remaining supply. Those areas in which the probabilities are greatest for striking commercial deposits of oil have nearly all been prospected with a drill and either proven or con- demned. There are only a few areas of probable oil territory now remaining under governmental control, and these are rapidly being filed on and patented, either through legitimate oil development or by subterfuge, over claims for gypsum, etc. Ifanything is to be done regarding the matter, there is no ‘question but that it should be done at once, for prospecting is now going on at an unprecedented rate throughout the West. All of the larger oil companies realize not only that the supply in the proven fields is limited, but that the area over which prospecting is liable to result favorably, is also restricted. Very respectfully, Geo. Otis SMITH Director. Rg Ng fdas Winn ORDERS AND CORRESPONDENCE. 105 Daily Consular Reports, February 15, 1908. LIQUID FUEL. Its use favored by the British Admiralty—Used in Russian waters. J. D. Henry, in the London Times, regards the use of liquid fuel on steamships and for engines generally as settled, which he thinks will be a good thing for the oil fields in general, He says: It would not be easy to overestimate the importance of the position secured by liquid fuel in naval engineering science. Practically every problem arising out of its safe storage, complete atomization, and smokeless consumption has been solved, and 1908 finds it permanently established in the British navy as an emergency fuel in battle ships and the steam-raising power which gives the greatest speed in thirty-six of the *“coastal”’ torpedo destroyers and at least five of the ‘‘ocean-going”’ type. We have this further evidence of the admiralty’s confidence in fuel oil—that many oil-fired warships are being built; that the fleet auxiliary tank steamer Petroleum is due in this country with a cargo of Texas oil; and that the new tank steamer Oberon is, on Government charter, bound for Rangoon to load the first full cargo of Indian oil for the admiralty. Used in conjunction with turbines, it has revolutionized the power and speed ideas of those who are responsible for the steam-raising equipment of the mosquito and scout types. The British triumphs of 1907 were secretly secured while foreign naval authorities neglected the subject; in the future, however, as the result of these suc- cesses, oil fuel will be an important naval and engineering subject in every country which has a navy. Liquid fuel is used extensively on vessels running between Baku, Russia, and Petrovsk and Astrakhan, at the mouth of the Volga, and on that river there are large fleets of oil-fired cargo carriers. The Caspian tank steamers (oil-fired) completed the following voyages between Baku and Astrakhan: In 1905, 4,550; in 1906, 3,631, and in 1907, 4,212. During years of large exports the monthly voyages equaled 900, or 7,200 voyages by liquid-fuel-burning carriers of petroleum and its products for a single navigation. CLASSIFICATION OF JUNE 17, 1908. JUNE 17, 1908. The Honorable, The CoMMISSIONER OF THE GENERAL LAND OFFICE, Washington, D. C. Sir: T am enclosing herewith a list of the lands in the Coalinga District, California, which have been classified as mineral lands by the geologists of this Bureau. The lands classified as mineral include all those lying between the outcrop of the lowest oil- bearing formation, the Tejon (Eocene) and a line marking the limits of the area in which the uppermost oil sand of the District can be reached by a well less than 4500 feetin depth. This basis of classification is believed to give a wide margin to the oil producers, as, with one or two exceptions, no successful wells over 4400 feet in depth have been drilled in the California oil fields. In dealing with oil lands it must be borne in mind, however, that absolute deter- mination, by work on the surface, of the occurrence or non-occurrence of oil in any one locality is not possible. The best that can be done is to calculate the degree of probability on the basis of surface indications and structural conditions. Such calcu- lations have been made in the Coalinga field and the lands mentioned in the accom- panying list are believed to be those which future development will prove to be more or less oil-bearing. It is therefore requested that the lands mentioned in the accompanying list be withdrawn from any but mineral land entry. It is believed that all of the other lands lying between the north line of T. 19 S., and the south line of T, 248., M. D. M., and between the west line of R. 14 E., and the east line of R. 19 E., are non-mineral bearing in so far as petroleum is concerned.

M., inclusive, has been passed upon. All of the rest south of the above is now being examined and will be reported on next winter; it should therefore not be restored to homestead entry. I would suggest that you request the Secretary to temporarily withdraw from home- stead entry all of the land covered by the McKittrick-Sunset special, which was sur- veyed last winter, and upon which I am now working. The reasons for doing this are the same as those offered for the withdrawal of the Coalinga lands. Part of the McKit- trick-Sunset area were withdrawn at the time of withdrawing the Coalinga lands. Very respectfully, RatpH ARNOLD Paleontologist. WITHDRAWAL AND RESTORATION OF JULY 10, 1908. Juty 10, 1908. REGISTER AND RECEIVER, Visalia and Oakland, California. Sirs: By office letters of August 211 and November 8, 1907,! certain described lands situated in Fresno and King Counties, were temporarily withdrawn from agricultural entry pending an investigation thereof by the Geological Survey, and you were directed to note the withdrawals on your records, and thereafter, to accept no agri- cultural entries or filings therefor until further advised by this office.

To the Honorable, COMMISSIONER OF THE GENERAL LAND OFFICE, Washington, D. C. Sinz Under date of August 15, 1907,1 the acting Secretary of the Interior directed you to temporarily withdraw certain lands near Coalinga, Cal., pending examination by the Geological Survey. On June 19,? 1908, I sent you a list of lands in the Coalinga Dis- trict which had been classified as mineral lands by the geologists, and requested that those be withdrawn from any but mineral land entry. The basis for the classification was given, and the belief was expressed that all of the other lands lying between the north line of T. 19 S and the south line of T. 24S, M. D. M., and between the west - line of R. 14 E and the east line of = 19 E, are non ee -bearing, in so far as petroleum is concerned. I am now informed by Geologist Arnold that among the lands thus restored to agri- cultural entry there are some tracts which are considered oil land by operators in the 1See p. 102, 2Should have been June 17,1908. (Seep. 105.) ORDERS AND CORRESPONDENCE. TTS Coalinga field. Three companies at least have started wells in the territory under question, and two of these three have expended at least $50,000 each in drilling. As soon as the land in the vicinity of these ‘‘wild-cat” wells was thrown open to homestead entry, filings were made on all of the land around these prospect wells, irrespective of whether or not there were mineral filings on the same. In fact, the quarters filed on by the oil men were the ones most eagerly sought by the “‘scrippers”’. As a matter of opinion, the geologists believe that the classification of last June is correct, but as a matter of policy it seems to them that an effort should be made to protect these operators long enough to allow them to prove or disprove their belief that the land in question is oil bearing. The land in question lies south of Coalinga, and is ees by the geologists as having little or no agricultural value, and in this opinion I concur, from my own observation last year. I recommend that the debatable strip, including the lands described below, be again temporarily withdrawn from agricultural entry, pending the exploration in progress by the oil men. I-am confident that the operators are acting in good faith, and deserve protection, inasmuch as they are backing their judgment by large expenditures in drilling. I have discussed the matter with Secre- tary Garfield, and he authorizes me to express his approval of this recommendation, provided there are no complications other than those which I have set forth. The following are the lands recommended for temporary withdrawal, pending the completion of the drilling tests: MOUNT DIABLO BASE AND MERIDIAN . 218, R. 15 E;S $10, 11, 13, 14, 15, N. 416, N.

My pEAR Doctor SmirTH: I am enclosing herewith a list of townships along the southwestern side of the San Joaquin Valley lying between Coalinga, on the south, and Martinez on the north. This land covers the area now being mapped topographically, and which we expect to map geologically next season if plans prepared this year are carried out. There is considerable activity in oil development work thruout portions of this territory, and the same old problems of mineral rights vs. agricultural (mostly fake propositions to get the land for oil) are coming out. The Coalinga proposition worked out so i? PETROLEUM WITHDRAWALS AND RESTORATIONS. nicely that I believe an effort should be made to have this land temporarily with- drawn from agricultural entry pending our classification of it after mapping the geology of the region. : How about the temporary withdrawal of the land covered by the McKittrick Sun- set map? I sent in a request for the withdrawal sometime ago but have heard noth- ing fromit. Do you know whether the suggestion was acted upon by the Land Office? A memorandum should also be sent to the Land Office protesting against the issuing of patents to oil land on gypsum development work. This gypsum ruse to obtain oil land is one of the biggest steals that has ever been tried in this part of the country. All of the men who are working it admit they want the land for oil. If these men are allowed to use this method it will be but a short time until there is no vacant oil land whatever. And the gypsum proposition is being resorted to by the biggest companies, I am sorry to say—companies that ought to have better business standards. Cannot something be done now to stop this sort of thing. This is the most important problem in the government land side of our work here, and it certainly needs prompt and permanent treatment. Our geological work is going on nicely. We will not be able to entirely cover the area mapped in the McKittrick Sunset sheet, but we will finish the most important parts. Mr. Campbell and Mr. White spent four days with me and saw all of the fields from Sunset to Coalinga. They were well impressed with the magnificent way in which the geology shows up on the bare hills. I expect to arrive in Washington by October 3lst. Very truly yours, Ra.pH ARNOLD. Transmitted thru Dr. C. W. Hayes, Chief Geologist. WITHDRAWAL OF OCTOBER 2, 1908. SEPTEMBER 28, 1908. The Honorable, The SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR. Sir: = I am in receipt, under date of September 17, 1908,! of a letter from Mr. George Otis Smith, Director of the Geological Survey, recommending the temporary withdrawal of certain lands in the Coalinga oil district, Visalia land district, California, in order that drilling tests for oil may be completed therein. His reasons for making this request are set forth in his letter from which I quote the following: Under date of August 15, 1907, the Acting Secretary of the Interior directed you to temporarily withdraw certain lands near Coalinga, Cal., pending examination by the Geological Survey. On June 19, 1908, I sent you a list of lands in the Coalinga district which had been classified as mineral lands by the geologists, and requested that those be withdrawn from any but mineral land entry.

Le spective of whether or not there were mineral filingson the same. In fact, the quarters filed on by the oil men were the ones most eagerly sought by the ‘‘scrippers’’. As a matter of opinion, the geologists believe that the classification of land [sic] June is correct, but as a matter of policy it seems to them that an effort should be made to protect these operators long enough to allow them to prove or disprove their belief that the land in question is oil bearing. The land in question lies south of Coalinga, and is pronounced by the geologists as having little or no agricultural value, and in this opinion I concur, from my own observations last year. I recommend that the debatable strip, including the lands described below, be again temporarily withdrawn from agricultural entry, pending the exploration in progress by the oil men.

I have discussed the matter with Secre- tary Garfield, and he authorizes me to express his approval of this recommendation, provided there are no complications other than those set forth. The lands involved herein, together with other lands adjoining, were withdrawn from agricultural entry ‘“‘pending investigation of the character thereof by the Geo- logical Survey”’ by office letter of August 21, 1908, under direction of the Acting Secretary of the Interior dated August 15, 1907, and were restored to all forms of entry by office letter of July 10, 1908, approved by the Department, on the recommendation of the Director of the Geological Survey under date of June 17, 1908. In view of the facts set forth by the Honorable Director, I concur in his conclusions, and recommend that the lands be temporarily withdrawn from agricultural entry pending the completion of the drilling tests now going on. A list of the lands for which withdrawal is requested is attached herewith. Very respectfully, FreD DENNETT Commissioner. Approved October 2, 1908. FRANK PIERCE First Assistant Secretary. [Notification to Register and Receiver, Visalia, October 3, 1908.] LETTER OF OCTOBER 24, 1908, FROM DIRECTOR TO SECRETARY. OctoBER 24, 1908. The Honorable, The SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR. Str: I desire to bring to your attention an extreme case of the waste of a mineral resource in the United States, in the hope that the legal officers of the Department may be able to suggest some method cf conservation. The Chief Geologist of the Survey, C. W. Hayes, recently visited the Caddo oil field in Louisiana, in company with David T. Day, who isin charge of the Survey’s investigation into the subject of oil production, The Chief Geologist’s report is as follows: This field is located about twenty-five miles northwest of Shreveport, Louisiana, in Caddo Parish. The field, as at present outlined by the preliminary well drilling, is very narrow and extends for some ten miles in a northwest and southeast direction. There is every indication of further extension of the field to the north and southeast. In fact, no definite limitations have as yet been determined for the field, and it may be safely assumed from present conditions that it is likely to be of much greater extent. This field has only lately come into prominence as a producer of petroleum, but for several years has given evidence of very great natural gas pressure, and several gas wells have been connected by pipe lines, first with Shreveport and later with Tex- arkana, by six and eight inch pipe lines respectively. §9089°—Bull. 623—17—_8 114 PETROLEUM WITHDRAWALS AND RESTORATIONS. Some four years ago one of the natural gas wells in this field began to leak badly around the casing due to poor work in packing the well above the gas-bearing sand. This leakage rapidly increased so that the well soon ‘‘ blew out’’, that is, the pressure of the gas blew the pipe out of the ground and tore away the surrounding earth, and the pipe, derrick, drilling apparatus, etc. all fell into the well and were submerged by water which blew out with the gas. The gas, under heavy pressure, continued blowing out from this well for about four years. It was gradually drowned out by salt water, and eventually the escape of gas ceased. This blowing out from indifferent work in packing the wells has been repeated in three other cases, and at the present time the gas is boiling up so rapidly around the casing of a fifth well that another ‘“blow out” can be expected within a short time. In one well a crater about three hundred feet in diameter has been formed, which is usually about half filled with water or thin mud containing some petroleum. In the middle of this the gas boils up making a large mud volcano, and periodically the entire crater fills with oil and water overflowing into Caddo Lake. It is absolutely impossible to measure the waste of gas from this well which hag been in progress about two years; but it has been estimated by various persons familiar with gas wells at fifteen million cubic feet in twenty-four hours. Still greater waste of this valuable natural fuel is going on at a dry well about a mile due west of the well noted above. Here the gas is burning with a flame varying from seventy to one hun- dred feet in height, and the waste is evidently greater than in any other well in the field. In both of these wells enough of the casing remains in place to prevent the caving of the sides which might in time check or entirely stop the flow of gas. The total waste in this only partially developed field has been estimated as at least 75,000,000 cubic feet per day or over 1700 tons. This is more than one twentieth of the total amount of natural gas usefully consumed in the entire United States. No effort is being made to control these wells, and there is no record in the history of the United States of such wanton waste with absolutely no effort to check it. The engineering problem of putting down a series of wells within two hundred feet of these burning wells is extremely simple, and it could be confidently expected that such wells, properly drilled, would draw off the gas and so reduce the pressure until the blown out wells could be controlled and safely filled in. Nosuch attempt is being made because the oil men have the fanciful belief that after the gas has blown off the production of oil will be improved—an idea for which there is no justification, as this rapid escape of gas rather injures the oil chances of the field by permitting an influx of salt water as the gas pressure is removed. The apparent real reason for this profligate waste is that there is no immediate use for the gas beyond that supplied now for Shreveport and Texarkana, and the sensational exhibition of this burning gas at night is a spectacle which will advertise the field to those passing through on trains. An investigation of this oil field in cooperation with the Geological Survey of Louisi- ae is now in progress and additional information concerning it will be available in a short time. It has been suggested that if any federal lands remain in this vicinity, there might be some basis for injunction to stop this needless waste. It is evident that engineering difficulties of considerable magnitude are involved, but the geologists of the Survey believe that the operators will be able to control the gas if a serious endeavor is made.

The waste of natural gas referred to in my previous letter on this subject constitutes an evident drain upon the mineral resources of the public domain. If permitted to continue it will inevitably destroy the mineral value of this public land, and render it worthless in a comparatively short time. re If the Government, by reason of these holdings, can ask for an injunction against further drilling for oil or gas within the area of the Caddo field until effective measures are taken both to stop the present waste of gas and to insure wells now being drilled 116 PETROLEUM WITHDRAWALS AND RESTORATIONS. against similar ‘‘blowing out,’’ I would recommend that thisaction be taken. Whether such an injunction is not possible, the determination of the conditions necessary for the protection of the Government and other property in this vicinity might well be entrusted to a commission to consist of a member of the Geological Survey, a member of the General Land Office and the State Geologist of Louisiana. I have the honor to further recommend that all the lands described herein be with- drawn from entry pending the investigation now under way as to their value for oil and gas and also that all public lands in Texas within a width of two sections from the Louisiana line opposite the tract between Townships 18 and 20 in Louisiana be simi- larly withdrawn from entry.

This area is now being mapped topographically and will be investigated next season by the geologists of the Survey. There is considerable activity in oil development throughout portions of this territory and conditions of conflict between claimants under agricultural and mineral entries are presented, as in the Coalinga field where a similar temporary withdrawal from agricultural entry was made pending the land classification by the Geological Survey.

LETTER OF NOVEMBER 11, 1908, FROM A. C. VEATCH, D. T. DAY, AND RALPH ARNOLD TO DIRECTOR. NovEMBER 11, 1908. The DrreEcTor, UniITED STATES GEOLOGICAL SURVEY, Washington, D. C. Sir: In the preparation of the tables of production of petroleum and the comparison of these with the estimated supply, for the report of the Conservation Commission, it has become manifest that the necessity for conserving our supply stands in a class by itself, and that the withdrawal of public lands known to contain petroleum is an immediate necessity for the adequate supply of this material during the remainder of the century, or even for the next fifty years. This condition is due not to the popularity of petroleum, but to the character of the production, which consists in realizing on the petroleum contained in one lease before it can be pumped through the wells of an adjoining lease. This situation renders imperative favorable action on the recommendation made last year in the letter of which we inclose a copy.! Very respectfully, Davin T. Day Expert in charge of petroleum. A. C. VEATCH RatpH ARNOLD Expert in charge of Cal. petroleum. ' WITHDRAWAL OF DECEMBER 15, 1908. DECEMBER 15, 1908. REGISTER AND RECEIVER, Natchitoches, Lowisiana.

LETTER OF DECEMBER 16, 1908, FROM RALPH ARNOLD TO DIRECTOR. . DECEMBER 16, 1908. . Dr. G. Otts Situ, Director, U. S. Geological Survey, Washington, D. C. My pEAR Dr. Situ: As I understand it the present status of the withdrawals of the oil lands in California is this: For the area mapped in the Coalinga report, permanent withdrawal from any but mineral locations for those lands classified as possible oil-bearing. For the region north from the Coalinga district to near San Francisco Bay, withdrawal from all entry including mineral, pending classification of the land by the Survey. For the region included on the Sunset-McKittrick sheet temporary withdrawal from all location except mineral entry. In view of the fact that the most promising territory yet remaining in the possession of the government lies within the Coalinga district and the Mc Kittrick-Sunset districts, I would suggest that you request the withdrawal from all entry of that land in the Coalinga district which has been classified as possible oil-bearing, and also of all the land included in the Sunset-McKittrick district pending appropriate action by Con- eress. This withdrawal from all entry in the Sunset-McKittrick district is made the more necessary by the fact that it includes large areas in which the gypsum question is an important one. If you so desire I can furnish descriptions of the lands roughly described above. Very respectfully, RatpH ARNOLD Paleontologist. EXTRACTS FROM LETTER OF JUNE 4, 1909, FROM DIRECTOR TO SECRETARY. JUNE 4, 1909. The Honorable, The SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR. Sir: On September 14, 1908,! Secretary Garfield, in order to prevent conflict between agricultural and mineral claimants, withdrew from entry certain lands in the Mc Kitt- rick-Sunset oil districts of California, pending classification by the Geological Survey. About two-thirds of this area has been examined by the Survey and the remainder is now being examined. Of the portion already examined, I classify 430,340 acres as oil land, and 544,480 acres as not oilland. Lists of these lands are given in the accom- panying letter to the Commissioner which is transmitted through you in order that certain matters connected therewith may be considered. ‘ I would suggest that it might be possible for you to meet this difficulty by permitting only oil locations on the land classed as ‘‘oil land.’’ In the withdrawal of November 7, 1908, this would amount to merely suspending the present withdrawal from all entry only so far as to permit oil locations on the lands classed as oil land. In this event, registers and receivers would be informed that the lands classified as ‘‘oil” are “‘tem- porarily withdrawn from all except oil entry or location pending action by Congress’. There is now before the House a bill (No. 9771) which would correct this trouble, although it is objectionable in certain other features. The lands classified and reported as not oil bearing would of course be released from all withdrawals. Very respectfully, GEO. OtT1s SMITH Director. 1 See p. 109.

Sir: I am in receipt of your letter of June 4, 1909,! enclosing lists of lands in California, heretofore withdrawn for classification, 430,340 acres of which you have classified as oil land, and 544,480 as not containing deposits of oil. i PN SEM RR ES SN SO Si eg SS 8 eae tg The withdrawal of the lands classified as containing deposits of oil in the lists accom- panying your said letter will be continued temporarily pending consideration of legis- lation upon the question, unless it be shown by reclassification, or sufficient evidence, that any particular tract or tracts thereof do not in fact contain deposits of oil. The lands classified in the lists as nonmineral will be restored to the public domain for disposition under the public land laws appropriate thereto. Very respectfully, R A BALLInNGER Secretary. RESTORATION AND WITHDRAWAL OF JUNE 7, 1909. JUNE 7, 1909. The COMMISSIONER OF THE GENERAL LAND OFFICE. Sir: I enclose herewith classification lists ? prepared by the Director of the Geological Survey covering lands in California, also a copy of my letter of even date addressed to the Director.* 1 See p. 119. 2 See letter of June 4, 1909, from Director'to Commissioner classifying lands (p. 119). 3 See p. 130. ORDERS AND CORRESPONDENCE. ak The lands classified as non-mineral are hereby restored to disposition under the public land laws appropriate thereto, and you will cause proper notices to be made upon the records of your office and of the local land office. The withdrawal of lands classified as containing deposits of oil will be continued temporarily pending consideration of the question of legislation upon the subject, unless it be shown by reclassification or sufficient evidence that any particular tract or tracts thereof do notin fact contain oil. Very respectfully, R A BALLINGER Secretary. WITHDRAWAL OF JUNE 19, 1909. JUNE 19, 1909. The CoMMISSIONER OF THE GENERAL LAND OFFICE. Sr: I am in receipt of petitions from the Mammoth Oil & Gas Company of Vale, Oregon, and other corporations and individuals, requesting the withdrawal from entry of cer- tain lands in Malheur County, Oregon, stated to be unfit for agricultural or grazing and chiefly valuable for their deposits of petroleum oil and gas. The purpose of the with- drawal is stated to be that the lands may be prospected and exploited for their mineral deposits. The tracts involved are described as follows: Sections 15, 21 to 28, and 33 to 35, inclusive, all in township 19 South, range 43 E. W. M.; sections 14, 15, 17 to 20, S./2 of 21, and 22 to 35, inclusive, all in township 19 South, range 44, E. W. M.; sections 2, 4, 8, 10, 14, 15, 17 to 22, 24, 26, and 28 to 34, inclusive, all in township 19 South, range 45 E. W. M.; sections 18 and 30 in township 19 South, range 46, E. W. M.; sections 1, 2, 3, E./2 4, 10 to 15, 22 to 27, inclusive, all in township 20 South, range 43, E. W. M.; sections 1 to 7, 9 to 14, 17 to 19, and 23 to 25, inclusive, all in township 20 South, range 44, E. W. M.; sections 2 to 15, 17 to 21, and 28 to 30, inclusive,.all in township 20 South, range 45 E.W. M.; sections 8, N./2, 18, and 32, all in township 17 South, range 45, E. W. M.; sections 4 and 10, township 18 South, range 45, E. W. M. In view of the decisions of the courts to the effect that there can be no reservation of public lands from sale except when authorized by some treaty, law or authorization from Congress, | must hold that I am not authorized to withdraw the land for the pur- - pose indicated. However, there has been introduced in Congress a bill, Senate 2623, which proposes radical changes in the method of acquiring and disposing of public lands of the United States containing deposits of oil and, in view of the pendency of this legislation and of the further fact that lands in the State of California, withdrawn by my predecessor, and classified as containing deposits of oil, are withheld from entry because of pending legislation of this nature, I have to direct that the lands here involved be temporarily withdrawn from all forms of location and disposal under the public land laws, subject to valid existing rights, pending consideration by Congress at its next session of the bills hereinbefore described.

LETTER OF SEPTEMBER 17, 1909, FROM DIRECTOR TO SECRETARY. SEPTEMBER 17, 1909. The Honorable, THE SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR. Sir: I have the honor to transmit herewith a copy of a letter addressed to your prede- cessor in February, 1908.1 Thearguments presented in support of the recommendation made at that time are still valid, and they have been amplified in the Survey’s Con- servation report on the petroleum resources of the United States,? a copy of which Isubmit herewith. In this report it is shown that the present production of petroleum exceeds the legitimate demands of the trade and that inasmuch as the disposal of _the public petroleum lands at nominal prices simply encourages overproduction the logical method of checking this unnecessary waste would be to secure the enactment of legislation that would provide for the sane development of this important resource. In view of the well known facts of the mode of occurrence of oil and the all too com- mon practice of drilling wells close to boundary lines of private holdings that are being developed for oil, conservation of the petroleum supply demands a law that will provide for disposal of the oil remaining in the public domain in terms of barrels of oil rather than of acres of land. I have the honor to also call your attention to the estimate in the petroleum report that at least one-half pint of lubricating 011 is used for every ton of coal converted into power, and that this quantity of lubricating oil represents over a half-gallon of crude petroleum. Taking this into account as well as the increasing use of fuel oil by the American Navy there would appear to be an immediate necessity for assuring the conservation of a proper supply of petroleum for the Government’s own use. I would therefore renew my recommendation that pending the enactment of adequate legis- lation on this subject, the filing of claims to oil land in the State of California be suspended. In this connection it is important to note that acting on my report of June 4, 1909, classifying certain oil lands in California, the Commissioner of the General Land Office issued instructions to Registers and Receivers to withhold those oil lands from agri- cultural entry pending consideration of the question of legislation. The area of oil land affected by this action is about 427,000 acres, to at least 40 per cent of which the Government retains title. In several townships, notably T. 32S, R. 22 E.; T. ene?

Otis SuirH Director. LETTER OF SEPTEMBER 17, 1909, FROM SECRETARY TO PRESIDENT. SEPTEMBER 17, 1909. The PRESIDENT, White House. Srr:— I have the honor to bring to your attention the subject of the conservation of the petroleum resources of the public domain, with special reference to the present and future requirements of the American Navy. The six largest battleships in commission or under construction are equipped for the use of either oil or coal and the fourteen latest destroyers use oil exclusively. The Geological Survey reports that the present rate of production of petroleum can not be maintained beyond a very few years, after which a marked decrease will result in an insufficient supply and increased prices. At present the production exceeds the legitimate demands of the trade and inasmuch as the disposal of the public petroleum lands at nominal prices simply encourages overproduction the logical method of checking this unnecessary waste would be to secure the enactment of legislation that would provide for the sane development of this important resource. In view of the well known facts of the mode of occurrence of oil and the all too common practice of drilling wells close to boundary lines of private holdings that are being developed for oil, conservation of the petroleum supply demands a law that will provide for the disposal of the oil remaining in the public domain in terms of barrels of oil rather than of acres of land. The Navy has a further interest in the conservation of the petroleum supply by reason of the absolutely necessary use of petroleum products for lubrication. A very conservative estimate is that at least one-half pint of lubricating oil is used for every ton of coai converted into power and that this quantity of lubricating oil represents over a half-gallon of crude petroleum. The recommendation was made by the Director of the Geological Survey in Feb- ruary, 1908! to my predecessor that the filing of claims to oil land in the State of California be suspended in order that the Government may continue the ownership of a sufficient supply of petroleum on the Pacific Coast where other fuel is expensive. No action to this end has been taken. Acting upon the Survey’s report of June 4, 1909,? classifying oil lands in California, the Commissioner of the General Land Office on June 22, 1909 issued instructions to the Registers and Receivers to withhold these oil lands from agricultural entry, pending consideration of the question of legislation. The area classified as oil land is 430,000 acres, to at least 40 per cent of which the Government still retains title. In several townships in this tract there are compact areas of unappropriated oil land, each including from 6 to 16 contiguous square miles. As a result of previous work by the Geological Survey similar action was taken in June, 19082 on 150,240 acres in California, classified as oil land, the title to a consid- erable portion of which is believed to remain in the Government. Furthermore there is at present withdrawn in California pending examination and classification by the Geological Survey, which work is now in progress, approximately 1,650,000 acres, of which 1,250,000 acres are withdrawn from all entry. © 1 See p. 104. 2 See p. 119. 3 See p. 105. ORDERS AND CORRESPONDENCE. oe The time appears opportune for legislative action that will assure the conservation of an adequate supply of petroleum for the Government’s own needs. This legisla- tion should give authority to fix the terms of disposition of public oil lands so as to provide for the future demands of the Navy and should also authorize the permanent reservation of such areas as the Executive, after full investigation, may find necessary for this Federal purpose. It is believed that such legislation would not interfere with the profitable development and utilization of the California oil pools. In aid of such legislation and indeed as essential to the accomplishment of its purpose, all the lands hereinbefore mentioned should be temporarily withdrawn from all forms of filing, entry and disposal, including mineral entry.

The Honorable, The SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR. Sir: In response to urgent request of January 24, 1910, from M. B. Gearon of Chicago, that withdrawn oil lands in southwestern Utah, be examined at once in order that a decision might be reached with regard to proposed Carey Act selections in which Mr. Gearon is interested: On February 4, 1910, I sent Geologist Robert Aederea! to make an examination of the area. It appears from the report of Mr. Anderson that for the most part the lands involved in this Carey Act selection either have no oil value or that the prospec- tive value of the irrigated lands will be many times the prospective oil value. On April 11, 1910,1 I recommended the restoration of lands in this field which are not underlain by the oil-bearing rocks. These lands were restored on April14. Inow recommend the restoration of the following tracts because the land is more valuable for agricultural uses than as oil land. : Salt Lake Meridian, Utah. 43.8., R. 10 W., Secs. 4 to 9, 16 to 21, 28 to 33 inclusive. 42 8., R. 11 W., Secs. 19 to 36 inclusive. 43 8., R. 11 W., All.

The area involved in this recommendation of restoration is approximately 116,482 acres, and its approval will leave 581,566 acres still withdrawn in the State of Utah in aid of proposed legislation sEacene the use and disposition of petroleum ccna on the public domain.

JUNE 16, 1910. The Honorable, The SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR. SIR: On November 10, 1900,? an area of approximately 552,960 acres in the Salt Oreek region, Wyoming, was withdrawn from agricultural entry on recommendation of the Commissioner of the General Land Office on account of alleged oil character of the Jand. On September 27, 1901,3 following field examination by a special agent, approximately 92,160 acres of this area were restored. On April 1, 1903,4 an additional restoration was made, leaving an outstanding withdrawal covering 173,530 acres. On July 26, 1909,° you approved a recommendation of the Commissioner that this with- drawal be continued pending examination by the Geological Survey. As this exami- nation was not completed at the time of the initiation of the policy of withdrawing oil lands from all disposition in aid of proposed legislation, this area was included in Temporary Petroleum Withdrawal No. 5, approved by you on September 27 , 1909.6 As a result of field examination by the Geological Survey in this area, I find that the following lands included in this withdrawal are not valuable for oil and accordingly recommend their restoration. This recommendation of restoration includes 139,135 acres. RESTORATION or LANDS INCLUDED IN TEMPORARY PETROLEUM WITHDRAWAL No. 5. Sixth Principal Meridian.

Sir: On January 21,1911, I recommended the withdrawal of certain lands in Wyoming for the reason that they are indicated by field investigation to be valuable for oil and gas. The General Land Office now reports that lot 4, Sec. 3, and SE. 4 of SW. 4, S. sof SE. 4, Sec. 4, T. 52 N., R. 93 W., which were included in the withdrawal, form part of Wyoming Carey Act Segregation List No. 61, which was approved January 4, 1911. The geological evidence regarding these lands, which are on the border of the withdrawn area, indicates a strong possibility that they are oil or gas bearing but the probability is not great enough to warrant the withholding of the tracts from irrigation and settlement. I therefore recommend their restoration, together with that of cer- tain lots which the records of the General Land Office shot to be patented. This recommendation involves 1,024 acres, which will leave a total area of petroleum withdrawals outstanding in Wyoming of 1,594,308 acres. Very respectfully, Geo. Otis Smite Director.

The Honorable, The SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR. SIR: Under dates of October 13, 1911, and October 16, 1911, the General Land Office requested that the lands listed below, now included in Petroleum Reserve No. 19- Wyoming No. 4,! be restored in order to permit the correction of the patent of William Denecke so as to include these lands, Denecke having been in possession and control thereof since April 20, 1911, but the patent given by him having erroneously described the SE. 4 of NW. 4, SW. 4 of NE. 4, Sec. 29, of the same township. The probability of occurrence of oil is no greater with respect to the land occupied by Denecke than with respect to the land to which patent has been granted him. In order, therefore, that the desired correction may be made in the patent, I recommend the submission to the President of the following order of restoration involving 80 acres, which will leave a total area of petroleum withdrawals outstanding in Wyoming of 398,402 acres. These lands are not included in power-site reserves or in national forests. Very respectfully, GEO. OT1Is SMITH Director. DECEMBER 16, 1911.

Sirs: On January 4, 1901, Messrs. Hendricks and Wright, of San Diego, California, peti- tioned this office for the suspension from entry of certain described lands because: “A large number of individuals, residents of the State of California have dis- covered xX xX x _ superficial mineral deposits not in place, consisting of large quantities of gypsum, which lands also contain strong surface indications of petroleum x x x and in pursuance of the custom of miners in the mining districts of the State of California posted notices, of their several mining locations upon said lands at point of discovery.”’ 1 See p. 48. ORDERS AND CORRESPONDENCE. 289 Affidavits in support of said petition were submitted, and a letter from H. P. Wood, San Diego, California, calling particular attention to the necessity for the desired action. By office letter N of March 7, 1901,' the petition was granted, for a reasonable period, to allow the mineral claimants an opportunity to develop the mining claims. Said letter held that the suspension was not to interfere with the due consideration of any claim or contest pending at the date of receipt of said letter, and you were directed to advise parties: ‘“‘that this will conclude all notice to them under their said petition, as under the rules, publication is required of all entries or selections within six miles of mining claims, during which specific protests may be filed.’’ The following are the lands suspended by this letter: West one half (4) of Section twenty-four (24), Sections twenty-three (23), twenty- two (22), twenty-seven (27), twenty-six (26), and twenty-five (25) of township fifteen (15) South, range eight (8) east San Bernardino Base and Meridian.

Southwest quarter of section nineteen (19), West one half of section thirty (30), west one half of section thirty-one (31) Township fifteen (15) South, range eleven (11) east, San Bernardino Base and Meridian.

As stated in said officeletter, the suspension was temporary, to allow parties to develop their alleged mining claims. The greater part of the lands above described are now surveyed, and the records fail to show any applications for the same, under the United States mining laws, and in view of the length of time that has elapsed since their suspension, and that ample protection is provided, under the public land laws, for parties who may have mining locations on the land, where title is sought for the 1 See p. 64. 69089°—Bull. 623—17——19 290 PETROLEUM WITHDRAWALS AND RESTORATIONS. same as agricultural lands, there seems no reason for a further continuance of the suspension of these lands, and the same is hereby revoked.

Sir: Asa result of recent investigations of conditions in Naval Petroleum Reserve No. 1 ? in the Elk Hills, California, by the Geological Survey, the difficulty of estimating definitely the quantity of oil available within this reserve has been developed more fully than heretofore. It is deemed the part of prudence therefore to add to the area especially reserved, in order that there may be as complete assurance as possible that the United States retains control over a body of fuel oil adequate for the future needs of the United States Navy. I have therefore prepared, and recommend for submis- sion to the President, the following additional order of withdrawal, involving approxi-_ mately 29,541 acres in the Buena Vista Hills, Kern County, California.

SIR: On June 19, 1909,1 the lands in southeastern Oregon listed below were withdrawn upon a petition submitted by the Mammoth Oil & Gas Company of Vale, Oregon, and other corporations and individuals, to the Secretary of the Interior, representing that the lands were believed to contain valuable deposits of oil or gas, and requesting their withdrawal. The withdrawal of June 19, 1909, was ratified, confirmed, and continued by Executive Order of July 2, 1910,? as Petroleum Reserve No. 6. Subsequent in- vestigations of the oil and gas possibilities of this region indicate that although small 1 See p. 131. 2 See p. 203.

(Notification to Register and Receiver, Vale, May 31, 1913.) LETTER OF JUNE 7, 1913, FROM WYOMING DELEGATION TO SECRETARY. JUNE 7, 1913. Hon. FRANKLIN K. LANE, Secretary of the Interior. Srr: We are enclosing herewith petitions signed by good and representative citizens of Basin and Greybull, Wyoming, requesting the restoration to entry of lands in the vicinity of these towns now withdrawn as oil and gas lands. The situation briefly is as follows: A number of years ago, after considerable drill- ing in the locality, a gas well was developed near the town of Greybull. After many vicissitudes and much delay capital was secured and a considerable number of wells were drilled and pipe lines were laid to supply Basin, ten miles distant, and Grey- bull, with gas. Last year the supply from these wells proving inadequate, further wells were drilled on patented lands but they have not materially added to the sup- ply. The company operating in this field has, we are informed, found it difficult to secure funds for further drilling on lands on which they applied for patent several years ago and now await action on the ¢hird inspection of the said lands which has been ordered by the General Land Office. Some time since, all public lands in the vicinity which gave promise of yielding oil or gas were withdrawn from all forms of entry, and it is the restoration of these lands which is now sought. We cannot urge too strongly upon you the importance, to the people of the towns of Basin and Greybull and the surrounding country, of having an opportunity given for the further development of this gas and oil field. The people have discarded their stoves and furnaces for gas ranges and heaters, and now find the gas supply wholly inadequate for their needs, with every prospect of a complete failure of supply unless more territory is opened to exploration. Those who have, with great courage, made large investments to prove the extent and value of the field are threatened with a total loss of all investment, while a very consider- able area of lands believed to be oil and gas producing—mositly barren hills having no other value whatever—are tied up by withdrawal. We most earnestly urge that relief be granted at once in order that drilling may be speedily undertaken, as the region is one in which it is practically impossible to drill after winter sets in.

My DEAR SENATOR: I have given full consideration to your letters of May 31, June 2, and June 5, 1913, and to that signed jointly by yourself, Senator Clark, and Representative Mondell, dated June 7, 1913,! together with the various communications from Mayor Blackley of Greybull and other citizens of Greybull and Basin, Wyoming. As a result of this consideration it appears to me that the economic conditions in the two communities, as set forth in these various communications, are of unusual character and justify spe- cial action by the Department for their relief. For the benefit of these communities, therefore, it is proposed that the Mayor of Greybull shall designate two compact areas not exceeding 160 acres each in extent within the limits of Petroleum Reserve No. 8, approved in July, 1910, or Petroleum Reserve No. 17, approved in January, 1911, and that after the selection of these areas the outstanding petroleum withdrawals will be so modified as to permit the location under existing laws of these two tracts as petroleum placer claims on behalf of such person or persons as the Mayor of Grey- - bull shall name. The testing of these claims for the purpose of obtaining a supply of gas for the citizens of Greybull and Basin and adjacent communities may then proceed until the fuel supply is secured, or until the lands are proven nonproductive. In the latter event, determined to the satisfaction of the Department, additional modifications may be made and additional tests permitted if the citizens and the operating companies shall desire and the conditions at that time appear to warrant such action. This plan I believe will afford your communities the desired opportunity to secure additional fuel supplies if they exist within the area at present withdrawn. It will at the same time result in the minimum of interference with the cooperative legis- lative and executive action in aid of additional legislation which is represented by the withdrawal act and the withdrawals that are made by the authority of that act.

ORDERS AND CORRESPONDENCE. 303 RESTORATION OF NOVEMBER 13, 1913. NovEMBER 5, 1913. The Honorable, The SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR. Str: The lands listed below were examined by geologists of the Survey in 1905 and again in 1906. These examinations show the lands to be underlain by the Aspen shales, which bear oil in the Spring Valley field to the south and in the LaBarge field to the northeast, and indicate a structure rather favorable for oil accumulation. On the basis of these facts the lands were included in Petroleum Withdrawal No. 6, approved October 12, 1909,! and ratified as part of Petroleum Reserve No. 8 on July 2, 1910.? A report by a mineral inspector of the General Land Office shows a well to have been drilled on one of the two forties listed to a depth of 1620 feet, without encountering more than enough oil to discolor the water. While this well is not conclusive as to the nonoil character of the land, in that it did not penetrate the full thickness (about 2,000 feet) of the Aspen shales, it nevertheless passed through that part of the shales in which most of the oil has been found elsewhere, and thus so reduces the possibility of oil under the land that the petroleum withdrawal is no longer warranted. The oil in the Aspen shales has been shown to be ‘‘pockety,’’ and the distance is small to which a single well proves or disproves surrounding territory. The recommendation for restoration is therefore confined to 80 acres, none of the area being included in coal, phosphate, or power-site reserves, or in national forests. Respectfully, Geo. Otis SmiTH Director. Nov 13 1913 Respectfully referred to the President with favorable recommendation. FRANKLIN K LANE ORDER OF RESTORATION PETROLEUM RESTORATION NO. 16, WYOMING NO. 6.

Sir: In order to permit a further test of withdrawn oil and gas lands in Wyoming for the purpose of obtaining a supply of natural gas to relieve the fuel famine in the cities of Greybull and Basin, Wyoming, I recommend the approval of the accompanying order of modification involving 160 acres, and its submission thereafter to the President for appropriate action. Since the President’s approval on August 2, 1913,! of a preceding order of modifica- tion involving 320 acres, the representatives of the communities in question have drilled five wells on the released lands, these wells ranging from 400 to nearly 1300 feet in depth. They have penetrated the most favorable gas horizons and although small quantities of oil were developed, gas in quantities available for use has not been found. In view of these conditions I believe that further opportunity should be given the municipalities interested to develop if possible a natural gas supply suitable for heating and lighting purposes.

Sirs: By office letter “‘N”’ of September 5, 1900,! to the Marysville office the following townships were suspended from disposition under agricultural laws until their alleged oil character had been investigated: aet2 3. 14 N., Rs: 2 and 3.W., M.D. M. Ts. 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 N., R. 4 W., M. D. M. Ts. 13 to 22 inclusive N., R. 5 W., M. D. M. Ts. 17 to 22 inclusive N., R. 6 W., M. D. M. a 20.21, 22 N., R. 7 W., M. DM. By letter ‘““N” of February 10, 1904,? to the Marysville office the suspension was revoked as to all of the lands above described, except W. 4 Sec. 6, W. 4 Sec. 7 and NW. i, Sec. 19, T. 14 N., R. 5 W., Secs. 6 and 7, T. 15 N., R. 4 W., and T. 20N., R.5W. This revocation was made as the result of an examination and recommenda- tion by a special agent of this office. The records show that by letter ‘‘N”’ of May 3, 1907,? to your office, the lands being in your district, the suspension of September 5, 1900, was further revoked as to the W. i, Sec. 6, W. 4 Sec. 7, NW. 4, Sec. 19, T. 14 N.,R.5 W., and Secs. 6 and 7, T. 15 N., R. 5 W., for the reason as stated in said letter that, ‘‘no further evidence has come before this office showing that these sections contain valuable mineral (oil) deposits and no applications or entries appear to have been made for lands covered thereby.”’ It will thus be seen that the original suspension has been revoked as to all of the lands covered thereby except T. 20 N., R. 5 W., and it would appear from the wording of said letter of May 3, 1907, that said township was not included therein for the reason that it was thought that the revocation of February 10, 1904, to the Marysville office covered said latter township; said letter of May 3, 1907 stating that the revocation of February 10, covered all of the withdrawn lands except those restored therein. It appears that the withdrawal of T. 20 N., R. 5 W., was continued on recommenda- tion of a special agent in order that those persons who were in good faith endeavoring to develop oil deposits on the land in the immediate vicinity may be encouraged and protected. The records show that the greater portion of the lands in said township are covered by entries under the agricultural land laws made many years ago which have prob- ably gone to patent. The lands have never been embraced in any petroleum with- drawal, nor have they been reported as valuable for oil deposits and parties who were prospecting the lands at date of withdrawal have had ample opportunity since their withdrawal in 1900 to explore and develop the same. There appears therefore no reason for a further continuance of the suspension as to the lands in T. 20 N., R. 5 W., and it is accordingly hereby revoked. Very respectfully, Cray TALLMAN Commissioner.

In the following index every order of withdrawal, classification, or restoration affecting lands in a township is given under the date on which the order was approved. Dates of recommendation of action and dates of notification to local land officers (registers and receivers) are not indexed, nor is correspondence other than official orders. Orders of modification to permit the approval of rights of way have not been listed in the index, but modifications to conform to new surveys or to permit mineral location or the issuance of patent are given. The index gives no intimation as to whether an order affects the whole or only a part of the township. Thus a withdrawal may be followed by several restorations and the entire township not have been restored, and although “restoration’’ may be the last item listed, a part of the township may be still withdrawn. It follows that the index is not an indicator of present status, as to which the maps at the back of the bulletin (pocket) should be consulted. It should be noted also that no attempt has been made to indicate the type to which an order may belong—whether a withdrawal from agricultural entry or from ali disposition, whether made by the Com- missioner, the Secretary, or the President. Reference must be made to the wording and signature of the order itself to determine its char- acter and the portion of the township which it affects. The index is arranged (1) by States, (2) by meridians, alphabeti- cally, (3) by quadrants in eon srLel ele aes order, nonin and east, north and west, south and west, south and east, (4) by ranges, and (5) by townships.
