The slate roof industry in this city is
practically under theontrol of two firms,
Aiken & Co. and W. B. Lupton & Co.
Both firms are interested in extensive slate
quarries in the well-known Peach Bottom
elate region of York county, Pennsylvania.
A member of one of these firms furnishes
borne facts as to the situation and outlook of
this industry. The volume of business has
been steadily growing year by year, and has
fully doubled in the past five years. The
amount of slate handled here in 18S7 was
little short of 6,000 tons. As that year was
an unusually active year in building lines,
it was feared that lSbS would fail to keep up
the record of the past five years b showing an
increase on the previous jear. Now that re
turns arc in for the ear's business it appears
that the record has been kept up, that the yer
just closed has been the best in the slate roof
ing industry, and shows an increased volume of
business over lhS7 of fully 25 per cent.
In the nast dozen ear prices of slate have
been drutmg downwaid, and iu that time there
has been a reduction of fully one-third in cost
to the consumer. The cheaper grades of slate
cost verj little if anymore than the old-time
shingle. The old-fashioned roof had au aver
age life of 12 or 15 j ears. Slate roofs hat e been
fulfilling their functions well into a century,
with no signs of decay from the corroding
tooth of time.
Nen Uses for Slate.
In addition to the slate used for roofing pur
poses tnere has developed in late y ears a strong
demand for the article in many other lines,
such as mantels, sinks, laundry tubs, floors,
hearths and stair work. Tho Peach Bottom
slate is the only thing in this line that has been
successfully worked into laundry tubs. The
trade outside of roofing material is steadily
growing, and the year just pastshows a healthy
growth all along the line.
It is not man years ago that slate mantels
were manufactured elsewhere and brought to
this city. 2ow they are extensnely
manufactured here by Aiken & Co.,
Graff, Hugus fc Co. and Bissell &
Co. Either of these firms is equipped
to furnish as artistic a mantel in stjle and
deicn as can be found anywhere in the land.
There has been, in the past two or three
years, a remarkable crowth of the tatte for
ornamental tire places. The introduction of
natural gas has brought to the firo front the
finest class of work in this line. Some East
End and Allegheny houses in the past year or
twohae been furnished with ornamental fire
fronts by our home manufacturers in a stjle
that would not hare been possible a few) ears
aco.
The fireplace is more and more taken into
consideration in furnishing the room. The
old-time mantel, loaded down with household
odds and ends, is a thing of the past in the
better class of dwellings. The professional
decorator is now called into requisition in the
ornamentation of hrst-class duelling houses,
and drapery, carpets, upholstering and fire
fronts are made to blend and nroduce a har
monious whole.
MABKETSBY WIRE,
Active Buying Demoralizes the Wheat Pit
Corn nnd Oat Firm A Drop
and n, Itnlly In Pork
t Lard Unsettled.
Chicago Trading in wheat was active, and
the feeling developed decidedly unsettled an I
nervous. There was big buying and big selling,
and between the two fluctuations were frequent
within a moderate range. The market was
again largely locak The opening was strong,
and prices c higher, and, with slight
fluctuations, advanced lc more. This was due
to good bujmg, largely covering of shorts,
though there was some wheat taken by parties
for an advance in expectation of a reaction
after the recent large decline. But the specu
lative offerings increased, and prices settled
back lc below the top prices reached early in
the morning, influenced some by a reported
failnro in the jrrain trade at Antwerp. But
active buying again set in, purchases being
credited to large floor traders, and prices re
covered lc, the market closing ljc higher
thanjesterday.
Corn was quiet, butflrm. Themarkct opened
at about yesterday's closing prices, advanced
c, ruled steady, and closed He higher than
yesterday.
Oats were quiet and steady, and price changes
weie confined to lie
Mess pork was active and unsettled. Onon-
ing sales were made at IMc decline on Yester
day's closing figures, and was followed "with a
further reduction ot 1215c Later the mar
ket developed considerable strength, and prices
rallied 20f22c and closed steady at outside
price1?.
Lard inoderatciv active and unsettled. Open
ing sales were made at 2XG5o, decline, and a
further reduction of 07j$cwas submitted to
later in the day. At decline the demand im
proved and prices gradually rallied 7KI0c
and the market closed comparatively steady.
&liort ribs were rather more active. Opening
sales were made at 1012c decline, and a fur
ther reduction of 5c followed. During the lat
ter part of the session the feeling was stronger
and prices improved 1012c and closed ratlier
aipauy.

Artistic Firo Fronts.
In addition to the firms already named, that
of L. H. fcniith S. Co. is engased in the fire
front furnishing department. These firms re
port a growing taste in this city and vicinity lor
artistic work, and a readiness to pay for thins?
of beauty in the shape of tile and brass work
for hre fronts. A dwelling in Allegheny and
one at Shad side are spoken of as equal to anv
thmg East or West in the line of artistic fire
fronts.
Said a member of one of the firms ensasedin
this line of trade: "We furnish just as pretty
things m tile and brass ornaments as can be
had anywhere in the land thoueh we could not
have done so a fewyears ago. What we cannot
produce at home we import, but tho imported
material is now a very small part of the total
used.
There are a few things we are still compelled
to bring from abroad, in iird.T to have a com
plete variety for the fire front department.
But every year we grow more independent of
England in this line, and the time is not far
away w nen we will be able to go entirely alone.
Few people have any idea of the rapid strides
Pittsburg has made in recent Years in fire
front ornamentation."

GAS STILL LEADS THE STOCK MARKET
to
One of thf committee of real estate men
who went to New York on a tour of dis
covery in the interest of the proposed Pitts
burg Exchange, in an interview yesterday
afternoon, gave an interesting accouut of the
manner in which realty is handled in the
metropolis. Some of the ideas thus acquired
will be utilized in the organization and
management of tho Pittsburg institution.
The New York Real Estate Exchange was
organized fivo years ago. The first step towaid
putting tho institution in working order was
the purchase of a handsome, substantial build
ing on Pearl street at a cost of S500.000. The
rental from this property brings a revenue into
the coffers of the Exchango of $50,000 a year.
The par value of the stock is $100; it now com
mands a premium of 25 per cent. Shares are
sold to whoever wants them. Ten shares
entitle the holder to the privileges of the floor.
Stock brokers are admitted to membership by
paying a yearly assessment of S60, but they
have no voice in the management of tho Ex.
change. This is done to increase the revenue,
All the real estate business transacted in
New York passes through the Exchange, even
sheriff sales, which are called "knock
downs." This is a great saving of time and
trouble to the courts. There is a full corps of
officers, from president down, and a general
manager, who supervises the entire business of
the Exchange. There are various committees,
to each of which is assigned a special duty. The
most important of these is the Arbitration
Committee, to which is referred all disputes
between buj ers and sellers.
Tne most thorough system prevails in all
parts of the Exchange, and all transactions
are governed by strictly business principles.
Stool pigeons, or bogus bidders, are rigidly ex
cluded. There is no pretense of making sales
every offer, and bids must be in good faith.
Owners of property bidding it in must pay the
commission the same as others. This is a pro
tection to both bus er and seller. The result of
all this is to concentrate the real estate busi
ness under one roof, instead of having it scat
tered all over the city, as it is here under the
present S)stem.
The gentlemen of the committee are highly
pleased with the workings of the Is e w York
institution, but are still seekers after knowl-i
edge. They understand that Chicago and
Denver have made improvements upon the
metropolitan system, and some of them will
visit those cities and investigate before recom
mending a plan for adoption here. They will
report to a meeting ot real estate men to-day
the results of their observations, so far as they
have gone.

Wnitinc for a Boom.
Captain Barbour presided at the morning
stock call yesterday, but he was absent in the
afternoon, bis place being ably filled by John
D.Bailey. There -was a good demand for gas
shares, nut holders were not anxious to sell at
the ruling figures. Traction and Electric were
quiet, "blocks are in a rut," saia a prominent
broker just before the close of the afternoon
call, "but 1 think v,e will have them out before
long. Just now offerings are light, but holders
will soon get tired of playing the part of spec
tators and Mill load the market up. This may
not boom prices: indeed, it may have a contrary
effect, but it will make business brisk." Bids

JTHE BULLS ROUTED.
A Field Dnv For the Bears on the Petro
leum Exchange.
Yesterday was a bad day for the bulls on the
Petroleum Exchange. Tho opening price was
SOJf , the same as the previous day, andthero
was some heavy Duying lor an hour or two, in
which Lowry and Robinson wero consDicnous.
The trouble then began. .New York and Oil City
sold heavily. This knocked the props from un
der the market, and prices were chipped off an
14 at a time, with a few attempts to turn the
tide, until the hammer fell.
The closing figures were 85J4, with a bearish
feeling. The outcome of the day's bus.ness
was a surprise to many, who expected from the
strong feeling at the start that the market
would be bullish all day. The result shows
that nobody knows what a day may bring forth
in oil. While there wjs considerable excite
ment on the floor of the Exchange there was
very little business after the morning spurt,
and the boys found plenty of time to swop
jokes. Monday's clearings were 1,936,000 bar
rels. A. B. McGrew quotes: Puts, 84c; calls, 860

BROKERS DISAPPOINTFD.
Their Expectations of a Bis Reaction In
blocks Not Realized.
New Yoke, January 15. The stock market
was less active and ld"wer throughout the day,
with less vim to speculation, the result being a
decline which, while not marked, was general.
There was quite a sentiment on the street this
morning in favor of a reaction, and while the
foreigners were still buying with undiminished
confidence, the traders were free sellers, ana
some taking of profits sagged the list off
steadily, especially during the forenoon, and
except in a few isolated cases prices yielded
all over the room. The strong feature of tho
dealings was the Vanderbilts, which were
bought largely for foreign account and met
wiin consiaeraDie domestic support, ana au
made np a small fraction of the dividends.
Atchison was again the disturbing factor in
the market, and efforts were made to get it
down in tho early trading, but notwithstand
ing reports of its weakness in Boston with tho
positive assertion that the dividend would be
Sassed, there was little progress made in the
ownward direction until the actual announce
ment of the fact, when it broke 2 per cent,
though it failed to carry the rest of the list
along with it. The Grangers and Coal stocks
showed most weakness during the afternoon,
the continued warm weather and reports of cuts
in the prices of domestic sizes being used
against them.
The opening prices were not held, however,
as the pressure brought against the list soon
made an impression, Missouri Pacific and Lack
awanna leaumg ine decline, ine vanuerollt
stocks all sold ex-dividend, and were all well
held. The early losses were generally recov
ered in the first hour, but the market soon gave
way again, while Pullman moved in opposition
to the rest of the list and rose 1 per cent.
Later there was considerable strength shown
in Erie and New England, but Pullmanlost the
improvement. The announcement of the pass
ing of the Atchison dividend dropped that
stock a point and a half, but the rest of the
list fluctuated within the narrowest limits, and
in tho last hour some improvement was shown
all around, though the amount of the gain was
small. The market finally closed quiet and
generally firm at something better than the
lowest figures. ,
Railroad bonds were still fairly active, and
this morning developed a more urgent, demand
for good securities. The tone of the market
remained strong throughout the day. leaving
prices afcthe close generally materially higher
thin the last previous, bales.
The following table shows the price of active
stocks on the New York Stock Exchange.

Country Produce, Joublne Prices.
TheoldVory of quiet trade in produce lines
grows monotonous, but this is still the situa
tion. Markets are overstocked with country
batter, and prices are merely nominal except
for a very choice article. A cash customer
with an offer of 19c for the best eggs would not
be permitted to go away empty. There is no
let up to the firmness of cheese, which shows
more vigor than anything else In produce lines.
A Liberty street commission merchant thns
puts the situation:' "Stuff keeps accumulating
on our hands far beyond the demands of trade.
Our mail is daily crowded with offers to con
Sign butter, eggs, vegetables and fruit, and we
are forced to answer, hold,. enough. The open
winter has upset all calculations, and our only
hope now of relief lies in a good spell of old
fashioned winter weather. There is no end to
the country butter coming in. A great deal
more is coming in than is going out"
