The only parties who were at a loss were P Railroads and the competitors of Standard Oil. Now because of the deal Cleveland became the biggest refining center and gained attention. P railroad were now in tough times. Now here starts the game, because John new that his competitiors are paying more than him so he decided to break prices And he continued it to acquire market and in order to not lose the customers other businesses followed the suit. Therefore he was the only one earning profits and many of his competitors left the business! Later he boosted the prices again and tried to become a monopolist.
