E,it,sbur. Oil Trade.

PITTsBURG, June Is.
Business yesterday exhibited more
activity. Prices of crude gave way.
Many buyers were inclined to purchase.
The days sales reported reach 900 bar
rels, ali for future delivery. a dispatch
from Oil City notes further decline in
that market Sales were made at 81 90
per barrel. Sales were made on the
creek at 81 30. These are certainly
low prices. The oil trade don't appear
to be tlourishing at this time. The re-
ceipts since our last were only Al bar
rels. The following are the crude sales
since our last, amounting IN the aggre-
gate to 1000 barrels: Sales 500 barrels
bulk, deliverable during the next 90
days at 81; 1900 barrels do deliverable
in 80 days at 6tc. Sales 1900 barrels
July. delivery, sellers option, at Gtc;
| 900 barrels do June, sellers option, at
&c. Sales 1000 barrels do July, sellers

REFINED-The market was dull; sales
were made at various prices. We note
as follows: 500 barrels bonded stand
ard white for September delivery, Phil
adelphia, at 25c; 500 barrels do October
at 25c; 500 barrels do November ut 25c,
and 500 barrels do December at 25c.
These are low figures. We also note
sales of 1000 bbls standard white, Phil
adelphia, rs follows: 1000 barrels Oc-
tober at oslo; LOO barrels do Decem-
Der at 26lc. These sales appear above
the market rates. They were furnished

BOSTON.
The market for petroleum, says the
Bulletin, is dull and weak, and prices
for Western oil continues to settle
down. Boston brands are relatively
strong, but necessarily sympathize with
the cheaper product. But lit is long
road which has no turn" and a reaction
in the oil market cannot be far distant
1t must take place whenever the stock
now held in first hands begins to move
off into the smaller channels of trade to
meet the csming exigsncies of copsump-
ton. At present there are many weak
holders, whose capital is tied up in the
commodity, and whose anxiety to realize
exerts depressing effect upon the
market.
