There was great excitement in the oil
market at New York on Tuesday. There
was evidently corner OF the shorts, who
were trying to cover, with none but other
shorts to buy from, The opening price
was 901s and 1t jumped to a515, closing
strong at 95ss. The Gales amounted to
S,34O, 900 barrels. The brokers generally
ascrlbe the advance to the manipulation
of the Standard Oh Company, but one of
the representatives of that company said
the advance was caused simply by the sue
cess OF the shut down movement resulting
from the Producers Union, and the fact
that the stock OF oil Is being reduced l.
zoo, 600 barrels per month. There is also
lively time at Plttsburg. The shorts
were wild and shouted themselves
hoarse In their efforts to secure oil to
cover.
