. ' TUESDAY, March 9, 1869.
Gold remained quiet to-day, at 131, as
the average quotation, owing, to the ab
sence of any news or rumors from Wash
ington regarding the Secretaryship of
the Treasury. :It is now confidently
expected that for the spring busines.s the
government will not attempt to disturb
the money market or attempt to 'depress
gold by artificial means or selling pld.
The importing interest have now an idea
how much gold can be depressed by the
people's confidence in the administra
tion, and shall no doubt be-guided by
the experience just gained in their ar
rangements for the fall . business. , -
Government Bonds were firmer in the
afternoon on the decline of gold, and it
is ,evident that so soon as It will pay
to ship- bonds by a slight advance in gold,
a new-'rise will be established, and thus
gradually work our bonds tip to par in
gold, in • Europe. The investment de
mand is entirefy confined, to, small lots,.
and even for these purchasers are few
and far between.
" The Stock market is firm but dull, and
transactions:are confined to a few 'fancy
shares. Operators and investors are
equally unwilling to purchase at present
prices, until the policy of the new Sec
retary is established. Express shares
were firm but 'Over to-day, but Mining
shares are neglected.
Business seems gradually but slowly
to revive. • -
Money is stringent.

PETROLEUM MARKET.
OFFICE OF PITTSBURG* GAZETTE'
•
TUESDAY. March 9, 1869.
We have been called very frequently
within the past three or four months to
write about the ..manipulations of the
bull ring. Now we have something to .
say about a bear movement, which, if
reports are true, is one of the most stu
ipendous, ever attempted in the
i
story of the trade. It seems
t have had its origin in New
yo g rl ..... rid extended from their to the oil
re lo s and Philadelphia, and whole
movement seems to have but one object
In view, to break the market. It is said'
that the New York bears sold at least
thirty thousand barrels short yesterday
and to-day, most., if not all of which,.
was bought by, Pittsburgh buyers, and
to-day-we learn that there was an offer
to sell from thirty to filly thousand bar
rels of Crude in the oil regions, ; for
almost any delivery, and in lots to said
purchasers. Thus it will be seen that
while New York is making a desperate
and determined effort to smash the mar
ket, Pittsburgh, on the other hand is de
termined to keep It on its feet, and thus
far, the New Yorkers have not been able
to accomplish very much, the decline as
yet hot exceeding half a cent. The bears
seem to have their forces, well located,
and their fire is has been pretty well
concentrated, but thus far the bulls have
been able to hold their ground. The
end is not yet.
CRUDE—The market was excitpi and
a little panicky to-day, with a manifesta
tion on the part, of holders to sell, and
compared with yesterday prices have de
clined about half a cent. The sales were:
750 bbls first, water at 17; 1,500 do. on
spot at 16ye;',2,000 do. seller for next six
months at 16%, and 10,000 bbls at 86,40.
per bbl at Oil City. It is stated that there
is now a margin in between Oil City and
Rttsburgh.
REFINED—The Refined market .was
also considerably agitated to-day, with
plenty of offers from the East to sell, and,
compared with yesterday's prices, are off'
about half a cent. The sales were as fol
lows:
