Western, car of corn, of rye. Hay is the
weak factor Of markets. Receipts are heavy
and the average quality is low The offerings
of corn and hay of late are below par in quality
and markets are slow. Choice stock is in good
demand, owing to the scarcity. A largo pro-
portion of the corn and hay offered of late is of
poor quality. Choice stuff readily brings out
side quotations. Corn from Kansas and Ne
braska is in much better shape than that from
Ohio and Indiana. In the latter States the con-
tinuous rains of last fall were adverse to the
quality of corn crops, and the result is seen IN
the general character Of offerings from these
States. A very small proportion of the corn
and hay on the markets of late is up to stand
ard. Mill feed is In good demand, and the
drift OF markets in this line is upward.
Prices below are for carload lots on track.

LIVELY FOR A CHANGE.
The scuIpers Still Strong Enough to Control
the Oil Market.

The ScaIpers Still Strong Enough 10 Control
the Oil Market.
The oil market was dull and lively by spells
yesterday. The opening was rather shaky,
caused by the report Of big well coming in in
Butler county, but the effect soon passed of.
Pittsburg and Oil City added to the weakness
of the forenoon by turning sellers. After this
the market became stronger on Eastern buying
The range was: Opening 1865 highest 107h
lowest l06. closing 1861.
The strength Of the market was due to the
scalpers running it up on the shorts by mere
force of lung power Trading was light at all
affect values except the Butler strike. Tues
days cearances were 35S 900 barrels.
The well referred to above is on the Eicholtz
farm at Little creek. 1t reached the pay
streak on Tuesday. II started at 20 barrels an
hour, but soon increased the flow to so barrels.
Information last evening was to the effect that
it was still improving. The strike caused con-
Siderable excitement in the neighborhood.
Other wells in the same locality were doing sat
isfactory work, Lockwood & Co.'s turning out
about so barrels day. The South Penn Oil
Company's No. l, at Myoma, was doing l40 bar
rels.
Galley Bros. & Co.'s well, on the Riddle farm,
in the Charters Valley field, about which ther9
has been so much mystery for a week or two
past has at last developed something. 1t came
in on Tuesday night and filed up l,600 feet with
oil. What its production will be cannot be told
until it is drilled in.

The situation is practically unchanged since
our last report. There is a better supply OF
poultry. but markets are fairly steady at quo
tations. Eggs are firm, and choice stock
readily brings outside quotations for cash.
Choice cabbage is scare and markets are f1rm
at quotations. There is good demand for
Jersey sweet potatoes at prices quoted below.
Apples are slow and markets show weakening
tendencies. Tropical fruits are quiet, and
Florida oranges are particularly slow, owing to
liberal receipts Onions are scarce and hrm,
and choice stock readily brings outside quota
tions. Potatoes of good quality are firm, owing
to their scarcity Markets are too well sup
piled with inferior stock, but choice stock finds
