Business at the oil Exchange yesterday
made the genulneness Of the better feeling
and demand in the oil stock market quito
clear and the trading made a good footing
up, though not so large as some that have
recently occurred
Merchants and Mechanics attracted The
same attention from buyers and led off as
the heaviest seller Of the day aud at prices
which show a gradual growth In value.
Manhattan was even more active than
heretofore and the only hindrance to a
larger business on this stock was the IN
yielding Of holders. Bidders would willing
ly give 55c, which wss an advance Of 2d3c
on the day. but found no takers on th q
basis at the close. Grace continued to sell
TO advantage and $500 shares were traded
at 5lsd5i4c, Buffalo sold az healthy
gain, with prices at 990l9c. Enterprise
brought an advanced figure and Gladys Of
Galveston received the highest yet paid
for that security, which was 1OJsdl1c
Gooer developed a better demand and
