THE LONG CARPENTERS' STRIKE J Still Has Quite an Effect on the Demand for Builders' Supplies. BOSTON TIEW OF THE COFFEE OUTLOOK Office of PrrrsBUKQ Disr-ATCH, ? Tcisdav, N'ov.10. J The run of cattle at- the East Liberty yards on Monday of this week was exactly the same as it was the same date a year ago, the number on sale at both dates being 120 carloads. The condition of market and quality of offerings were much the same a year ago as now. Top price as reported November 10 last year was ?4 CO, while yes terday there were sales at S3 00 per cwt. Re ceipts of hogs November 10, 1890, at East Liberty yards were 50 carloads, and this week so far abont the same number have been on sale. Top price then was about the same as now, namely about fi 10 to $4 20 per cwt But taking the fall season all through up to this date the price of hogs ranged from 35c to GOc per cwt. higher this fall than last. A year ago large quantities of hogs were pushed on to market before their time on account of scarce and high-priced corn. Now that we hare an abundance of corn the same policy appears to be followed, and as a result of'heavy receipts prices have de clined fully 60 per cent in the past two week. Hog products ate feeline the effect in the demand tendency ot markets. Builders' Supplies. There was a time when the manufacturing of nails was an important industry in Pitts bur?. In the past few yeuis, owing to ex tremely low prices, this industry has almost ceased to be a factor in our manufactuiing interests. The nail factories of Pittsburg have airoost all heen directed to other pro ducts, in which there was more money. There has never been a time when nails were lower than they havo been the past fow months. The cost or cut steel nails at tho Wheeling mills is $1 CO per keg. At this price it is diflicult to see where there is any profit to tho manufacturer. Only the inot'farorably located mills, and with the closest management, can the manufacturer come out w hole. i ire nails are selling at $1 90 per keg. There is a general feeling that prices are down to hard pan, and in this faith Jobbers are anticipating the future by laying in heavy stocks Thionghout the region, of which Pittsburg is the center, tho long strike of carpenters through the pan half of the year, has had the effect of reducing volume of trade in this line. Every department of trade connected with building interests feels the disastrous effects of that long strike. A leading acalci" in plumber sup plies had this to say of his trade: "Our vol ume of business during the summer months was not less than 33 per cone below the cor responding period of last year, and while the fall trade shows improvement, it is within bounds to say that our business this-ycarall through will foot up fully 25 per cent less than last year." Dealers in lumber, talk in the same strain. A year ago at this time tliere was a rush o fill orders in all lines pertaining to building, while now trade is reported quiet. The car penters' strike was a very unprofitable fact to all concerned, and the community still reaps the bitter fruits thereof. The Coffee Situation. Following Is the outlook forcoffee as given by the JSo-ton Herald: Troubles in Brazil have greatly disturbed the coffee market of late, but the position of actual goods in this country is fully main tained. What the outcome of the present troubles there w ill be it is impossible to tell and, since coffee is the chief article of export from that country, the coffee market is re garded as inan uncertain position, to say the leavt. Even tho wise heads are not prophe sying. "Saturday's Xew York market was tele graphed at the close as steady to five points uremic ine xtio cnuie quoteutuc innrKct f.Tr.i, with receipts for the dny of 6,000 bacs, while ofSantos there were receipts of 17,000 bags This lack of receipts at. Bio, with ex cessive receipts nt Santos, is explained on the theory that there is some trouble with transportation at ltio. The total stock at ltio is figured at 29S.C00 bags; sumo time a year ago, 178,000 bags. The weekly Rio cable tloes not give any position of the market,ex that exchange is down to the very low figure of 1!J1, indicating that matters area good deal disturbed. Purchasers of coffee in ltio the past week have doubtless made a hand some profit from this decline in exchange. Tlie average daily receipts at Rio for the w eek w ei e 9,500 bags; shipments to Europe, 4S.0OD bags; to tho United Mates, 53.000 bags. The total visible supply of coffee is now figured at 450,76 bags; same time last vear, 344,797 bags; same time in 1833, 453,613 bags. The total receipts at Rio, on the present crop, and up to Xovember 5, were 1,625,000 bacs; same time a year ago, 1,043,000 bass; same time in 15S9, 79J.000 baes. The position of Maracalbo coffee is still very firm. Tho sales from the last steamer bhow that the maiket is le to 2e higher than the lowest poiut. "Javas are also very firm, with the supply short and in lew hands, as already explained. AX INEVITABLE DECLIKE. Copious Bains Gladden the Heart of the Fanner, but Depress the Spirit of tho Bull Speculator Correspondingly Other Grains Take Their Cue From Wheat. CHICAGO There was a slight but obsti nate decline in the wheat maiket from the opening to tho close to-day, and the most herculean efforts to brace up prices were effectual only in securing temporary rallies, w Inch were quickly dissipated by the suc ceeding rush ot sales. To-day's decline, however, was a logical oneand was caused by what is gladdening the heart of every American farmer general rains throughout the great wheat belt and continued luild weather. The drop to-day would have come yesterday lint lor the reports of cold weath er Indications. To-day's opening found the cables quite as strong as yesterday, but tho Chicago trader failed to take his inspiration from Liverpool and Berlin markets, and the cold wave scare having subsided tho inevitable decline came. Subsequently cables weakened, doubtless on reports or the decline in Ameri can markets, and the amounts of wheat and flour on ocean passage showing increase of 64,000 bushels, contributed also, somewhat to the decline. New York was a tree seller from the start. The opening was about U(pc lower than yesterday's close, "and ltii " only slight fluctuations declined IJc more, then re recovered slightly, again ruled easy and tho closing was about lJ.J2c lower "than yes terday. Corn opened strong and higher, the bull clique evidently bidding the market in order to unload; but when they attempted to do so there was a quick collapse and a drop of 3'c with but little subsequent recov ery. November corn, which yesterday closed at 54Tc. opened this morning any where lroni SSii&SSie, but by noon had re ceded to 51?.Je. Tear corn, which had sold in the opening scramble nt 448c,fleclined in the same time to 47c, and May "irom 43.c, early, sold off to 44Jf e. The weakest price of tho market was toward the close of the ses sion. November sold as low as 54c and closed at that. Tear and December declined to 4SJc, leaiing off at tho lowest point, and May touched ViSSlSfie and closed IHfc bid. Oats opened ami and He higher at 3c for November and.r3Jc for Mav, these being the hieh prices for the dav. There was con siderable realizing and November sold off to 32c, closing Jc lower at that figure, while Mav. after several tips and downs, reached bottom at 32c, that beilic tho closing price. ii indicates n ucciinc oi ;c.

They Are Very Scarce and Held at High, Water Mark Figures. THE KIND OP BUILDING NEEDED. Eouthsiders Cheered by Prospects of Better Transit Facilities. AN INVESTMENT 0DT FIFTH AYENDE There is no disputing the faot that Pitts burg needs a first-class hotel, one equal to the best in Chicago or St. Louie, costing $1,000,000 or more. But a barrier arises at the very threshold of such an enterprise It is a difficult matter to find a suitable site for a building of the required size. Two or three hotel syndicates'have been looking for a site for a year or two, but have not been able' to find one that was entirely unobjec tionable. The trouble in nearly all cases is that the lots are too small. When large enough the price is so steep as to prevent a deal. A brief survey of the field will show that this trouble has not been over-estimated. There are only about half a dozen sites that are large enough .and central enough to answer the purpose. These are the Speer property on Dnqucsne way, the Christ Church property, the Splane corner, the Smith property on Liberty and Sixth, the block on Fifth avenue above Cherry alley, and the Government property. All of these have been under consideration, but they are held at such a high figure as to discourage negotiations. There are good sites above Grant street, bat they are out of the current of travel, and do not enter into the question. And so the natter rests. That such a hotel as has been described will ultimately be erected is a foregone 'conclusion. There is a demand for it, and the demand will be met, but when or where it will be built is pure conjecture. A good many who have studied the subject favor the Fifth avenue site, provided ths church property could be purchased. Others think the corner of Liberty and Sixth the best location. Either of these sites would fully answer the purpose contemplated. Each of the others mentioned has its advocates, but, with the exception of the Splane corner, they are not central enough to suit the ma jority of people. The Splane property lacks sufficient frontage on Smithfield street for a building of the requisite dimensions, and so is practically out of the list. What the promoters of the various hotel projects propose to do is locked in their own-bosoms. It is not likely that they will abandon the guest There is too much in volved for that The necessity is too urgent to permit of a backward step. After lull consideration.it appears that the best thing to do under the circumstances is to purchase a site at once before owners strike a higher key. It is almost certain that values will be'advanced next year. Delay, therefore, will cost something. A purchase now would give plenty of time for the erection of a building to accommodate the Eepub lican National Convention next year, or any other that might be induced to assemble here. Southslde Locomotion. The statement that the rapid transit sys tem of the hill district on the Southside is to be extended is of great importance not only to the people of that district but to the entire community. It will open up a large territory to settlement, afford a good outlet for a thickly populated quarter, and in this way be adif-wX Denefit to the home-seeker. There is n better residence location around Pittsburg than is embraced in this hilltop district It abunb in every gift of nature calculate to make home life enjoyable. All that it needs to make it "blossom like the rose" is adeqnate transportation. This is more than loreshadowed. All oi the schemes under consideration are in enter prising bands and have ample financial backing. A Salo on Fifth Avenue. The property 508 Fifth avenue, near Mil tenberger street, consisting of a lot 24x120 aud three brick houses, two on the front and one on the rear, was purchased yester day by a well-known hotel man as an in vestment for 510,000. Property on this avenue above the Court House is held very strong, there being little of it on the market Business New and Gossip. West Enders continue to agitate for rapid transit and expect good results to follow. The authorities of Edgewood are consider ing ways and means tor lighting the borough with electricity. Council has appointed a committee to work the matter up. It is now denied that the Junction Bail road was represented by any of the bidders for the Government property.

There was more business on "Change yes terday and a bettor feeling than for many days past New York was stronger airu this exhilarated movements here. Words that the BerltD troubles had been exaggerated and at an end, and that the Maverick Bank would soon be ready to settle with the de positors were the principal bull cards of the day. i None of the calls were failures. At the Arst 20 shares of Switch and Signal brought 10, and 10 (Philadelphia Gas 11. At tho second 100 Philadelphia Gas was picked up at Vyi, 400 La Noria at 25c, and 100 Electric at 10. At the third 200 Luster changed hands at 1 b. o. 60 days. It was nearer a whole sale market than has been seen for weeks. This was a good feature. By-play reflected the bullish tendenoy. There was a bid of $10 for any part of 1,000 shares of Electric. Duquesne Traction was called for, but there was no response. Pipe age was bid up about a point, with none on tap. There was some buying of Electrio in Boston, which helped the stock here. Traders were somewhat bearish on the nat ural cassers, and they yielded a trifle.

The Weak Stocks or Monday the Strongest Yesterday Many Bullish Arguments. But the Chief Is, That the Market at Home and Abroad Is Oversold, New York, Nov. 10. The stock market to day was still more active,, while the temper of redealing was again most decidedly strong, not to say buoyant, and the net ad vances, this evening are more uniform and largor than in any day for months. Almost the whole active list is up from 1 to 2 per cent, the exceptions being remarkably few. Many influences combined to create this effect, but tbe most important face is that the stock market, both here and in London, has been largely oversold. Under the extra ordinary demand, therefore, first prices were all materially higher than the finals of last evening, and the gains extended to per cent among the leading shares. The high prices naturally brought out some long stocks, but tho pressuro to sell was light compared to the demand, and prices even after the marked opening gains, stead ily rose, though here and there some hesita tion .was seen. As a rule, however, tho weafe stocks of yesterday showed tho greatest strength, the Coalers and Northern Pacific preferred, tak ing tbe lead at first, but others constantly came to the front, and before the close t ho gains were uniformly the most pronounced. Atchison, wds most active, but the dealings' in many others werelarge. and tho widening Of the market was marked. All tbe standing argument for higher prices received atten tion, and the west bought the Grangers, while Boston took Atchison and' the traders the Coalers to large amounts. The strength remained unimpaired, though there were periods of comparative dullness and prices halted or hesitated at times. The market finally closed active and strong at or near the highest prices or the day. The most pronounced gains were: Erie, 2: Susrar and Northern Pacific pre ferred, i New York Central, 2; Chicago Gas, 2; C C, C & St. L. and Lackawanna, each IK; Louisville and Nashville, 1; Atch ison, Rock Island, St. Paul and Reading, V)fr Missouri Pacific, 1; Burlington, and others smaller amounts. Bailroad bonds felt the stimulus of the new buying movement, and there was not only more business done, bnt the upward movement was more pronounced than for many days.

No Scarcity of Funds for All Legitimate Business Purposes. So long as tbero is a supply of funds suffi cient, and more than sufficient, for legiti mate business purposes it would be a mis application of terms to say that the market is tight. Even in tbe East, where the Mave rick Bank failure was most felt, commercial money is in good supply at the usual rates. Any scarcity there is confined to speculation and is the result of manipulation. Here the market is as well supplied with loanable fnnds as at any previous time this year. Good borrowers are promptly accom modated, generally at 6 per cent, and no questions asked. Indeed, bankers are in a position to increase their discounts, and woqld gladly do.so if the opportunity of fered. No enterprise should be neglected for fear of a stringentmoney market. There are no signs of it. Yesterday's business was somewhat below the average, but wns good enough for a wet day. Depositing wns large, showing activity in regular trade lines.
