shown in ST. Paul, New England and some
others, gave tone to the whole market

of the Wheeling and Lake Erie stockholders
means to prepare the way Tor the part they
are to take in the combination. the bitnmln-
Gus coal people are not disposed to run
against public sentiment as the anthracite
combination did. The two combinations,

for Investment.
The demand for money was a little better
than ordinarily yesterday, but was still
apathetic. 1t is needless to say the supply
was abundant. Rates were 5@6, with some
shading. Bank clearings were s., 3s7, ,377 A.
and balances $621, ,97s 70.
The London Stdtist says: "During the past
two years the great banking centers of
Europe have been too much shaken to en-
courage any new enterprise; but the acute
stage of the crisis has now been left behind
and we are in period of stagnation and
convalesence. As yet the great bankers do
not care to engage in risks; but among the
banks, and still more among the great finan-
cial houses, there arc men eager to engage
in new undertakings. Thus the capital that
cannot now be employed at home with good
results will be sent abroad, at first sparingly
and cautiously, but as time goes on, freely
and abundantly"

NEVER BOUGHT ANY OIL
Inside Facts on Petroleum SPeculations
Brought Out by Suit.

Charles G. Foster, defendant in suit
brought to recover on q note given by him
to Jacob H. Walter, and upon which Mr..
Walter sued to recover, few weeks since,
filed a rather spicy answer in the Court OF
Common Pleas No. l, yesterday. The de-
fendant admits that It is true as alleged that
he made and delivered to the plaintiff the
note sued upon, but AYERS that it was given
to the plaintiff to settle an alleged balance
due the plaintiff from the defendant as mar
gins in oil speculations. Some time in the
month of january, 1886, the defendant was
engaged to arrange deals on tho
floor Of the Pittsburg Petroleum
Exchange, and to negotiate specuations
Walters acted as broker for the defendant,
and at the time the note was made the plain
tiff represented that the defendant owed
him $145 for losses sustained and the note
was given to cover this sum.
1t is alleged by MI. Foster that the deals
were merely wagering speculations on the
rise and fall OF the price of oil as mani fcsted
on the floor of the Stock Exchange. and that
no oil was ever bought by the plaintiff for
