The stock market to-day was all one-sided, and the preponderance of speculation was once more in trusts, while railroad shares were com paratively neglected, there being no real activity in any of them, while only five showed any animation whatever. Trusts, on the other hand, were extremely active and de cidedly stronger, and, for the first time since the formation of the unlisted department, transactions in that class of securities exceeded those of the regular list. The movements in the latter were small and unimportant, while there was a general whooping tendency, caused bv scalping operations of the traders on the bear side. Western advices were again un favorable, and further cuts were again re port and, and the meeting of presidents w as post poned because of the inability to get a quorum together. There were further good advices from the growing cro> s, but these seemed to have little influence. Grangers and Gould stocks were leaders in the downward movement, but in none of them were the fluctuations of special importance. Chicago and East Illinois on the improvement in earnings showed positive strength, and preferred, with Chicago Gas, was the only stock which showed a material ad vance. Among trusts dealings were enormous, and the excitement at times intense. Sugar took the lead in the upw'ard movement, but Lead in the amount of transactions. The former was held by a steady rise in the value of sugar abroad and a reduction^in the esti mates of the beet root crop in Europe, and buying was lar ely by insiders, and in the first fifteen minutes the stock rose to 126 against 11844 on Saturdav Heavy realizing sales fol- THE MORNING NEWS: TUESDAY, JUNE 25, 1889. ? nd il back to 121 )<. but closed at bougfct on a rumor of the acquisition of the Atlantic Works, though the news could not be authenticated.

There was nothing in outside news of an especially serious character. Prices eased off 94c, then advanced VbC. closing about the same as .Saturday. Ttwe weather was an improvement over that of the past six weeks and was warm and bazy. Liverpool advices quoted a firmer tone to the market and the weather fine. Li corn the bulk of the trade was thecoveriug of shorts in July and. in changing trades from July to September, the former being bought aud the latter sold. The differ ence also narrowed slightly, bt*ng 94@94c. Warm weather, fair arrivals, and quietness iD the domestic new3 made operators rather bear ish at the opening, but the decreeae in the visi ble supply rather changed the suntiment, and as offerings were smaii a strong f eelinz was de veloped and after a decline of )4e at the open ing a rally of )4'ri>96c followed. Numerous small recessions from outside fir ices followed the rallies, but the last sales were, a trifle above Saturday’s. Oats were quiet and easier and trading was chiefly local.

New York, June 24.—There was a sudden change in the trading in p 'trolemn to-day, and instead of the dullness recently prevailing there was heavy trailing, wide fluctuations and in tense excitement, all incident to an advance of Stscand a reaction of sc. making the day the m >st active for eighteen months. The advance was based on an advunca of 20 points in the price of refined oil and on a report that pro ducers hail exercised their option, which would expire on July 1, and delivered the Standard Oil Company 3,500,0 K) barrels at 90c. The opening was firm at 83)4°. and the price ad vanced slowly in the first two hours, reaching 8494 cat noon. Then the news of an aivance in the price of refined from 6 to 10c caused a scare among shorts, and when they tried to cover they found no oils for sale. Buying by .Standard Oil brokers and western operators rapidly ran the price up, and' in less than half an hour it reach and 95c. A sharp reaction then set in and the price fell to 88c. hut buying by Standard Oil brokers aud big producers continued and the market closed steady at 90iqc. In Consoli dated Exchange—Sales 4.190,000 barrels; open ing, 83)4c; highest, 95c: lowest, 83?4c; closing, 90)4.

The cause of the sudden advance was the fact that the Standard Oil people had brought about a settlement of their agreement with the Pro ducers’ Protective Association, which was not expected to expire till July 1. By this agree ment the Standard Oil Company had a call on 3,500,000 barrels of oil held by the association at 62c, with charges since Nov. 1, 18)7. AN EXCITED MARKET AT PITTSBIIRO.
