"Coal! Oil has always been very expensive in Chicago relative to coal. The Illinois and Indiana oilfields that led to the location of the Standard of Indiana refinery at Whiting were never large enough to exceed the demand for refined products in Chicago, first kerosene and later gasoline." <br /> <br />do you remember the source for this position? would it be fair to assume that this is true for the majority of the midwest,ie, cleveland, milwaukee, st.louis as well as chicago? i believe that the entire northern indiana and ohio refinery industry was heavily supplied by texas pipeline oil (Across this Land: John C. Hudson).
