'Very firm and 'considerably excited dui , ing the past two or three days, and an ad vance of fully.three-quarters of a cent has been establisheti. ispet -oil, which at the opening of the week was , quiet at closed firox_to.day at 034 e, With sales of 1800 bbls reported. The supply, both here and above, is reported light, and to this, more than anything else, may be attributed the advance, as the advices from Antwerp. the leading Eurppea' n market,are anything but favorable—tbe latest cable telegram report ing a still further decline. As we, noted yesterday, the matter of production is be ing agitated considerably and as a matter of course, It is seldom that any two men will agree on this important subject. One is confident that the production certain ly falling off—that it is nothing like it was three months ago; while another, whose knowledge of trade is equally _ as good, will tell you that there is an abundance of oil at the wells, that the, production is instead of falling off, is increasing, and that'a number of new wells have been tapped within a short time. Of one thing, however, there can be no disputing, and that is, that the market has stiffened up very much within the past day or two, and that an important advance has beenestablished. REFDTED—The market for bonded oil has also beert remarkably stiff during the past•two or.three days, and in sympathy with Crude, prices both for present and fu ture delivery have advanced. The, sales to day were 8,000 bbls-Lrl,ooo,eaeh for Septem ber October and November at 2930, and 2,040 bbls for May at 26%c.. spot oil is quo ted firm at 263‘e; May "id - 2634 c to 2690; June at 27 to 27 1 A,c,.and July at 28c. Yes terday there was a sale for, all the year, buyer's option, at 32c, and we feel pretty confident ths e t no one . -. would have sold to day below thit,:figure4 There is and has been for several days past quite an active demand both for present and future de livery, and the only reason, and it Is a very .".d one, why we have not more sales re ported, is owing to the fact that there are Ibtit, few sellers as our rethtertyaS It gene ratl thing, seem dispel:tied ito'hold off in an ,ticipation that there wilrbe a stilifprther "advance. • ARRIVALS—he ,t.ollo9arPßT.ar-T ' f; vals of „ f Mwhirmey E. 1300 Idawhi'py Bro.lBoo Bly & Pinkerton 700 4-Ehdler dt- Bro:-..4000 make reference: Joseph Dilworth, Rev.
