Seeing that the stock was exhausted, that a large, number of vessels were on ~d emurrage," and an urgent demand for oil, we have milled and done our best to make all we - cart out Of our: purchases, and are not ashamed to tell it. , . , The idea that because others have seen the same state of facts and have followed suit, constitutes a conspiracy, is simply ridiculous. I join with ".§heirt Sellei" In hoping that the time for "this pernicious system of corner is past," but it will not be so until refiners stop gambling, which selling ,their goods in advance is., This.
