Yesterdays closing weakness was car
ried into the opening transactions this
morning. The joint action Of European
powers In reference to Turkey allayed
any fears of political acknowledgements,
abroad. consequently destroying what
ever help prices had been receiving
from that consideration.
Late In the session there was free
selling of the near deliveries in corn evil

however, in defining the course Of
wheat. In the May there was less &C.
ttvity than in the nearby options and
prices varied but one-eighth of q cent
all day. May corn opened at 20h and
closed at 29B, the range being bounded
by those quotations.. The loss for the
day was Is cent.
The general dullness of all specula-
tive articles en- the floor was not re-
lieved by anything that happened in
oats. The tone averaged steady, a
slightly easier feeling existing at the
close This was due to the weaker tone
of wheat and corn.
ProVisiQns-The opinion was yentured
by prominent commission man that
this was the dullest day ever known in
provisions. There had been so much
inactivity In this market that it is cues
tionab!e whether the claim was accura te
or not. Be that as 1t may. there was
practically nothing doing and prices
scarcely moved at all. At the close Jan
uary pork and ribs were q Shade lower
nnd January lard unchanged. Don,es-
tic markets were quiet and steady.

There are twenty-five Chinese women
of full blood In New York, and sixteen
who are half-breeds. There are nearly
100 Chinese babies, about two-thirds OF
whom have American mothers.
Philip Philips, the noted composer and
"singing Pilgrim" who died a few DAYS
ago at his home in Delaware, o., was
born near Cassadaga Lake, N. Y, and
his remains were taken TO Fredonia for
burial.
Miss Maria NJ. Love of the Buffalo w.
G. T. o., told the local conference of
charities a few days ago that IL girls
would learn to cook, sew and keep house
tidily there would be much less drinking
by men.
The project to build an aerial tramway
at Niagara Falls is likely to he carried
out the coming summer. The plan is to
run cage-like car on a huge cable
strung across the river Immediately over
the falls. 1t will be operated by cleo
tricity.
A Bradford attorney claims to have
discovered that the worst attacks of
rheumatism can be cured simply by taxi
ing three drops of amonia in a wine glass
full of water three or lour times a day,
He says he has seen the remedy tried
many times and knows just what it will
do.
The body of Ransom II. Sargent, well
known citizen of Titusville, was found
in Sugar Lake, Venango county, on Sun
day afternoon. The evidence of suicide
was conclusive. A four-inch T from
pipe line was found wired to his body,
and as if intending t % leave no clues to
the sad deed, his hat WAS also tied to his
person. He was about so years of age
and is survived by a wife, son an
daughter.

Oil Notes.

Drilling on the Stewart we'll, Irwin
tract, TubbS run, has begun.
Mr.. Wolcott expects to begin drilling
on his latest venture on the Vockroth
farm this week.
81 gins IL Co. struck five-barrel pro-
ducer on the wilkins farm, Fleming
Hill, Harmony township, the latter part
of last week.
Hopkins & Co. are starting a we'll on
the Thomas Wilson farm, same vicinity,
and expect to finish within two weeks.
The U. S. Oil Co., composed mostly of
1fonesta people are putting down a well
on Patrick DunoVan's farm, Stewards
Run. A we'll sunk in that locality away
back in the sixties, and known as the
United States No. 2 is said to have been
a good one, but the low price of oil at
that time did not justify the further de-
velopment of the territory. Nothing
short of 1000 barrel spouter was recog-
nized in those days,
The DerTick's monthly oil report says
June proved record breaker In the his
tory of petroleum developments. Never
was there witnessed such an array of new
wells completed, and never was the
strife TO secure new territory more eager.
Fourteen hundred and twenty-five wells
were completed during the past thirty
days in the Pennsylvania and Buckeye
oil fields, and PSI of the entire number
were dry or non-producers of oil. At
