Joining multiple files tail on tail

I have 250 files that have 16 columns each - all numbered as follows stat.1000, stat.1001, stat.1002, stat.1003....stat.1250.

I would like to join all 250 of them together tail by tail as follows. For example

stat.1000

a b c
d e f

stat.1001

g h i
j k l

So that my output becomes something like.

a b c
d e f
g h i
j k l

I have tried using the join command but the files are way to many. Could someone here help to solve this problem?

Did you try cat ?
