The market opened at $1.10, but declined in a fow moments to $1.09$, and then recovered and advanced to $1.13. In the afternoon the report that the Anchor well was doing 260 barrels a day and thai the new well at Cranberry was good for 300 barrels, together with the stringency of the money marktt, weakened the market. With one movoment it fell to 98 Jc, the lowest price that has been quoted for many weeks. Tho wild sceno which ensued as block after block of oil was thrown on the market anu was sold to satisfy margins which the customers had failed to put up was beyond description. Toward the close the market grew better and recovered to $1.05 and closed at $1.04§. The sales wore 2.901,000 barrels. LATE NEWS.

He said: "I think that forty dollars per ton is us much as Btccl rails ought to be sold for. The mills can mako money at that price, and higher rates are repressive of railroad building. The railroads give employment to 1,000 workingmen, where the Bessemer rail mills give employment to one. These steel rails can be produced at Pittsburg for thirtytwo dollars per ton without lowering the wages n, single dollar. Bessemer pig from the ore iu tho ground to the metal in tlx pig can be produced for eighteen dollars per ton without reducing wages, and fourteen dollars additional will more than pay the cost of making rails. It will not do, however, to continue to pay the Lako Superior iron ore monopolists $10 per ton for ore delivered at Cleveland, which does pot cost them over $4.50 in actual outlay. At $40 per ton tlier* should be a profit of $8 per ton on steel rails. If your mill produces 100.000 tous per year, you have u profit of $800,000 per year upon an investment of $2,000,000. Forty per cent, premium is not so big as it might be, 'but it will do.'" No Money to lie Advanced for Public Works --A System of Belief to be Inaugurated.

The market opened at $1.10, but declined in a fow moments to $1.09$, and then recovered and advanced to $1.13. In the afternoon the report that the Anchor well was doing 260 barrels a day and thai the new well at Cranberry was good for 300 barrels, together with the stringency of the money marktt, weakened the market. With one movoment it fell to 98 Jc, the lowest price that has been quoted for many weeks. Tho wild sceno which ensued as block after block of oil was thrown on the market anu was sold to satisfy margins which the customers had failed to put up was beyond description. Toward the close the market grew better and recovered to $1.05 and closed at $1.04§. The sales wore 2.901,000 barrels. LATE NEWS.

He said: "I think that forty dollars per ton is us much as Btccl rails ought to be sold for. The mills can mako money at that price, and higher rates are repressive of railroad building. The railroads give employment to 1,000 workingmen, where the Bessemer rail mills give employment to one. These steel rails can be produced at Pittsburg for thirtytwo dollars per ton without lowering the wages n, single dollar. Bessemer pig from the ore iu tho ground to the metal in tlx pig can be produced for eighteen dollars per ton without reducing wages, and fourteen dollars additional will more than pay the cost of making rails. It will not do, however, to continue to pay the Lako Superior iron ore monopolists $10 per ton for ore delivered at Cleveland, which does pot cost them over $4.50 in actual outlay. At $40 per ton tlier* should be a profit of $8 per ton on steel rails. If your mill produces 100.000 tous per year, you have u profit of $800,000 per year upon an investment of $2,000,000.
