MOURNERS WERE MANY.
The Petroleum Market Persistently Refuses
TO Brace Up-Wet Blankets.

TO Brace Up-Wet Blankets
The session of the Petroleum Exchange Sat
urday was a short horse and soon curried.
It lasted about two hours. The market was
dull and lifeless from the start. There was no
snap in it. The dumping of long oil and the
producers nightmare disheartened the boys,
and they resorted to scalping to earn an honest
penny.
The opening was 81, e under Friday. This
struck the keynote for the day. About 10
o clock the bulls made feeble attempt to brace
up. They put their stuff up to S412 butit
wouldn't stay there. The downward procession
was then resumed and continued until the cor
bined noise of gong and gavel announced that
the meeting was over. 1t was jolly if not
happy crowd that trooped out of the exchange
at noon.
The opening was 81, highest S413, lowest S4,
closed S41s, = higher than Friday. 1t was an
off day at all of the oil centers. New York
was quietas well as the West. Outside news
was generally bullish, but had no effect upon
the market. Fridays clearings were 2l4S,0OO
barrels.

The queen lived in ST. James pal
ace, and thought that the adjoining
st. James park, belonging to the pub
lie, would make a nice palace garden.
She therefore asked the prime min
lister, Sir Robert Walpole, what it
would cost to shut il up and make it a
royal garden.
"Oh, a trife, madame; a trife," an
swered the cynical, shrewd premier.
"a %trifle, Sir Robertr' replied the
queen. Il know better. 1t will be
expensive, but l wish you to tell me
the cost as near as you can guess"
why, madame, | believe the whole

the prime minister, looking her calmly
in the face.

meant the three crowns of England,
Scotland and Ireland, had the tact TO

shows in Frank Leslie's paper that
since independence was achieved the
United States government has been
the largest owner of arabic land on
the earth. The total area of the pub
lie domain, sold and unsold, amounts
TO l,S49, 072, 5S7 acres and constitutes
~ per cent of the total area of the
United States, including Alaska.
About 700, OOO, 900 acres OF land have
been sold and donated, about1, $50, O0O,-
900 acres remain unsold. As the area
