Independence Oil Company Promises Vast Returns and Rapid Growth
The prospectus states 1.3 million barrels sold with immediate plans to begin storage for 750000 more and a first cargo to Port Arthur by March. It asserts a huge leasehold at Spindle Top, room for five more gushers, and plans to tap both ends of the hill to secure inexhaustible oil. Officials claim strong dividends by midsummer and high market demand with listings expected on Houston and Beaumont exchanges.
