Standard Oil Converts Barges for Texas Oil Transit
The Standard Oil Company imported two iron ore barges, the Liberty and the Loyalty, from Cleveland via the lakes and St. Lawrence to New York. They will be converted into tank barges to carry fuel petroleum from Beaumont fields, with each barge capable of 5,000 tons. The barges drew water from Halifax harbor to avoid shore water dues. The Standard Oil monopoly remains strong, with dividends around 48 percent.
