PETROLEUM MATTERS.
To the Editor. Sir,—l was a bit amazed whcu 1 rend the "News" this rooming. Of course, 1. was disappointed when I saw you had dipped oil' that nought, but the thing Hint puzzled me, was that part of Jlr Berry's letter in which he says: "1 look' upon myself to send, word to the driller at Xo 2 to allow no plus to be put in without the consent of the directors." We shareholders who are not at the seat of war are not kept "in the know," but it is plainly to be seen that there is n 'rift in the lute," fliml thnjl Jlr Kerry and the manager are at cross purposed, r'or our sakes I hope that this state of all'airs will soon be remedied. Whilst we don't want the directors to be tied too tight to the heels of •the maiiawr, or the manager running here and There at the tack and call of the directors, it won't increase our chances of a dividend if they are going to start washing linen In public at this stage 1 "'"' Itratkokb SHAREHOLDER.
