So Extra Prime Cattle at East Liberty
Yards This Week.
BOUGH GRADES LOWER AND SLOW.
Heavy Eeceipts of Sheep and Lambs De

LIGHT TACKIXG HOGS LOOKING UP
Office op tiie Pittsbueg Dispatch,!
Wednesday. February 6, 18S9. J
Eeceipts of cattle on Monday were 85 cars,
the same as for the two previous weeks.
There were no extra prime cattle in the en
tire lot The heaviest received were not
above 1,500 pounds in weight, and only a
few reached that figure. Some four loads
of stockers weighing from 700 to 900 pounds
were received from Chicago. The season is too
far along for active trade instockers. The
range of prices for the few that were received
was 2c to 3;c. and markets were slow at these
figures.
Regular Buyers of stocbers from eastern
counties have been scarce for some weeks
back. Good, smooth butcher cattle, weighing
from 1,100 to 1,400 pounds, were in fair demand
at last week's prices. Rough common cattle
were slow at a drop of 10c to 15c from prices of
a week ago. The best heavy crado cattle in
the market sold at iic to -ic The best going
were considerably below prime. Common
grades are reported very slow to-day, and.
though holders were ready to make concessions,
a number of loads remain unsold. Stockmen
do not give a rosy view of markets. Trade has,
by no means, been satisfactory to operators.
The situation continues as for some weeks
past in favor of buyers.
Butchers, while complaining of very slow
trade for the pan month, cannot certainly com
plain of prices they are required to pay for
cattle. Prime beeves were sold at Herr's
Island within a few days for S 20, which a few
weeks ago would hare brought S3 005 25. IT o
reliable information of any reduction in price
of beef to the eater can be traced. The butcher
with a good trade ought to bo happy over the
situation of cattle markets for the past month.
Heavy Receipts of Hogs.
Receipts on Monday were very large, the
total being about CO carloads. On the strencth
of liberal receipts prices went oil 10c to 15c,
and markets continued dragcy through Tues
day. This morninc prices are 5c to 10c higher
and markets are firm. Rome stockmen report
prices better at Cincinnati and Buffalo tnan
here this week. Per contra, a leading packer
fays that markets are as good here as anywhere
and prices still too hich. The price of 1 orkers
yesterday as S5 005 15 with markets slow.
To-da v rates are $5 155 20 with active markets.
Receipts at Chicago to-day were li.000 to 21,000
and markets steady. Total receipts at Chicago
for the past three days upwards of CO. 000
There is no let-un to slowness of heavy
weight liocs. Prices" for this class rule 20c to
30c lower than for good smooth packing toes
weighing lrom 100 to 200 pounds. The greater
the number of pounds above 200, the weaker
arc prices. Cheap lard is assured for the
coming season.
febecp nnd Lambs.
The supplf-of sheep on Morjday was 27 cars,
more than double the number of the previous
Monday. This increase in receipts was a sur
prise all around, and prices dropped from 15c
to 25c from rulintr rates of the week before.
Choice (Trades suffered least from the decline,
and would have held their own with an average
supply. Markets to-day are reported no better
than Monday. Some dealers report them
weaker. All along the line the live stock mar
ket is reported the reverse of satisfactory for
this w eek.
McCall & Co.'s Review.
The supply of cattle has been liberal and the
market slow and lower on all grades except
neat, fat 1,000 to 1,200 2. steers, which sold at

Wheat Weak nnd Lower In Sympathy With
the Feeling Abrondr Corn and
Oat Come Down a Point
Pork nnd Lard
Quiet.
CHICAGO Only a moderate business
in wheat was done to-day, and that was mostly
local. The feeling was weak, and was in
strong contrast to the action of the market
yesterday. The opening was about K8KC
under the closing of yesterday, receded c
more, then advanced Kc. hut later became
quite weak, and prices declined liic recovered
some, the market advancing S-5Jc but closed
easy and Hc lower than yesterday. The
weakness was influenced some by the heavy
feeling reported in European markets.
There was only a moderate degree of specu
lative activity manifested in corn, trading be
ing largely local. The feeling developed was
easier and a lower range of prices was estab
lished. The eaBier feeling was attributed
chiefly to large receipts, the reaction In wheat,
and to the colder weather which will improve
the grading.
Oats w ero more active and slightly lower.
Trading was moderate in mess pork. Prices
were irregular. Opening sales were made at
7Kc decline, and a further reduction of 15c was
submitted to later in the day. Rallies of 2
5c were gained occasionally, and tho market
closed rather quiet.
Only a fair bnfiness was transacted in lard.
Prices ruled 57c lower, and closed steady at
inside figures.
Short rib were in light demand, with prices
ruling 7J10c lower, and closing quiet at in
side figures.

the Scotch court in his case against Mr. John
Walter, of the Times, for libel, will be heard at
Edinburgh during the summer terra of court.
It is stated that constables have left Kil
larney with a warrant to remove Mr. O'Brien

The periodical outbreak of Socialists in
Belgium, the recurrence of which was pre
dicted some time ago, has been brought about
m the usual way. All socialistic disorders in
Belgium are conducted under the guise of up
risings of discontented, ill-used and ill-mid
workmen, and all workingmen's strikes in that
country are nothing more nor less than social
istic demonstrations.
The Oklahoma fever has reached Kansas
City, and the railroads leading out of the city to
the West are preparing for a great increase of
travel toward the promised land. Hundreds of
men with families are out of work. Youngmen
from the East, who came here last fall expect
ing to get rich immediately, bavc been disap
pointed, and many of them have not been erm
fortunate enough to secure positions of any
kind. They are planning, together with a vast
horde of dwellers in tents in the suburbs, to
move to free homes and independence. The
real estate agents are getting their boards
ready to go up and possess the land. Several
Oklahoma land companies have alreadv been
projected by well-known capitalists m and
about the Gate City, and an exodus may be
looked for at any moment.

"I have nothing in the line of news for
you to-day I meag nothing more im
portant than the ordinary daily business
transactions which you can pick up at the
Exchange and on the street," said a Fourth
street financier to The Dispatch repre
sentative yesterday. "Suppose yon say
semething abont the city grand, old, reli
able Pittsburg not the largest, hut in
many respects the greatest community in
the United States, or the world." "What
can be said about it that has not been said
time and time again?"
"Well, I don't know perhaps nothing.
Still the story of its growth from an insig
nificant frontier town to its present pre
eminence, is full of interest I have just
been looking over some old records which have
interested me greatly. These papers bring out
several things very distinctly the early strug
gles of the inhabitants and their final triumph
over every obstacle. But I suppose the busi
ness aspect of tho matter is what would most
interest you."
Such was admitted to ber tho fact.
"Well, I supposo you know that Pittsburg
business men havo a world-wide reputation for
conservatism and solidity. They always look
before they leap. They inherit this principle
from their Scotch-Irish ancestors, to whom we
owe more than we can ever repay. They were
stern, rugged and patriotic to the core. Their
word was as good as their bond. In business
they gave every man his dne. They laid their
plans carefully and deliberately before under
taking any new enterprise. If it possessed any
questionable features it was dropped. If It
promised a fair recompense for tho money,
time and trouble it would involve, they took
hold of it with a determination that knew no
Such word as fail. It was these heroes of every
day life who laid the foundation of our present
greatness. They fought, prayed and did busi
ness according to the Presbyterian ritual, and
whatever tbey did was well done.
Early Business Here.
"Give me some special incidents relating to
the early business history of the city."
"Pittsburg has seen stormy times. I remem
ber the financial crash of 1837. Many of the
business men of that heavy time were sorely
tried, but very few of them went down. The
lessons learned from their ancestors pointed
the way out of their difficulties. There were
a number of failures, but nearly all of tho
indiduals and firms involved were on their feet
again in a few years. They paid dollar for
dollar. The great tire of 1845 brought financial
disaster to thousands, but tbey put their
shoulders to the wheel like Chicago under
similar circumstances and emerged from the
ashes stronger and better than before. An
other bad blow to tho prosperity of the city
was the panic of 1857, but it lett no enduring
mark. Pittsburg has had fewer important
failures than any other city of its size in the
country. The worst failures we have bad
two or three within the past 20 years were
brought about -by downright dishonesty and
not through lack of business acumen.
".Notice the substantial appearance of the
city. It looks as If it had been built to stay.
True, houses tumble down occasionally, but so
they do in other places. The public buildings,
the schoolhouses, the churches and many
private residences aro as substantial, as good
work and good material could make them, and
of,the best style of architecture. In these re
spects we canjconfldently court comparison with
any other citr, East or West."
"You must acknowledge, I think, that a few
mistakes have been made that were seriously
felt at the time."
"I suppose you refer to nails and glass. We
did lose a part of the nail trade, but it was
through strict adherence to principle. Condi
tions were imposed which the manufacturers
were not able to grant, and rather than put
themselves in a doubtful position they let it go.
It was the same with glass. But we hardly fett
theloss. Other industries sprung up to take
their places. We are in better condition to-day
than ever before. In addition to honesty and
perseverance, we have advantages for manu
facturing that no other city lays claim to.
Natural gas, abundant transportation by rail
and river, a healthful location and limitless
capital will soon raise us to still greater pre
eminence." Rare Old Docs.
"You no doubt set a high value upon the
documents to which you have referred?"
"They contain a great deal of rare informa
tion. Let me read yon a brief extract from one
dated 1825:
" "Pittsburg, which lies in the form of a trian
gle between the Monongahela and Allegheny
rivers, ocenpies the alluvial plain and part of
the adjacent hills. A more eligible site for a
city could hardly be selected. It is high and
healthful, surrounded by verdant and romantic
hills. It commands a beautiful prospect of hill
and dale, neighboring villas, the villago of Bir
mingham on the opposite shore of the Mononga
hela and the suburb of Manchester on the oppo
site side of the Allegheny. Both of these villages
are connected with Pittsburg by fine bridges.
The city is admirably situated for trade and
manufactures. A number of the latter, driven
by steam power, are in successful operation. It
contains about 15,000 inhabitants.'
"That was in 1825. To-day the population ap
proximates 300,000, and the valuation of prop
erty for taxing purposes falls but little short of
$200,000,000. It is an old story that I havo
briefly gone over, but it will never lose its in
terest to those of us who have done what we
could to make tho city what it is."

BULL TACTICS.
Interest in the Oil Dlnrkct Confined lo the
Last Hour.
The Interest in the oil market yesterday was
centered in tho last hour of the afternoon's
dealings. The feeling was rather bullish in tho
morning, but nothing of moment was done.
The highest point of tho day 87 was
reached just beforo the close. The spurt was
due chiefly to the determination of the boys
to get out of the rut somehow. They had be
come weary of the monotony that bad charac
terized tho market for tho past month. Tho
advance could not be held, however, and the
price broke to 87, quickly followed by a rally to
Sili, where it stood when Captain Barbour ad
journed the meeting. First figures were 8(
highest, S7cx lowest, S6c: closed, 87c, with a
few small sales. Oil City was a seller in the
afternoon. Clearings were 1,144,010 barrels.
Refined at Antwerp was an Jc lower.
A B. McQrew quotes puts S6l to 86, calls
87 to 88.

A BULLISH TONE.
Wnll Street Experiences a Revival Stocks
Active, Strong nnd Generally Higher
A Drivo nt tho Coalers and
Grangers Bonds Firm.
New Yobk, February 6. The stock market
to-day was more active with a stronger tone
almost throughout, and the result of the day's
operations is to leave most of the list materi
ally higher than last eveninc. The market
was unsettled and irreKnlar in the forenoon,
but became positively strong later in the day,
and except in a few special stocks the ad
vances were scored after 12 o'clock. The
Grangers were the weak spot. Burlington and
Quincy and Rock Island especially showed
marked weakness and declined materially,
though a portion of the losses was made up
toward the close of business..
There was liberal selling for Chicago ac
count, and the news from that center was not
of an assuring character, but, on the contrary,
some of it was quite sensational, and met with
a quick denial. The fact that Burlington had
ordered the Iowa schedule in force, which ac
tion must be followed by the other roads doing
business in that State, was a factor in the
weakness, but this influence failed of its effect
after the denial of the rumors mentioned. The
Coalers were beavy, but very quiet, and the
principal impression was made upon Delaware
ana xiuuson, upon me report 01 the great cave
in in the collieries of the company. The Van
derbilts were again the leading strong feature
of the market.
First Driceswere almost linriihi. hiHipr.
and the advances over last evening's figures
extended Ji per cent in the general list,
with larger ones in the specialties. The mar
ket developed considerable strength in the first
few minutes. The Grangers were the only
weak spot In the list, but the attack upon tbera
was so persistent that the general list gave way
slightly in sympathy, and an irregular and un
settled market followed, which lasted through
out the forenoon. Burlington and Quincy and
Rock Island led the downward movement, and
each lost about 2 per cent before the decline
was checked, but after noon tho strong tone
reappeared, and with a fair trading prices be
gan to rise all over tho list, even in the weak
shares of tbe forenoon. The market finally
closed active and strong generally at the best
prices of the day.
The railroad bond market shared also in the
increased confidence manifested in the share
list to-day, and while the market was stronger
than at any time for the past month, the busi
ness done approached the largest this year, ag
gregating J3.5K000. This was in the main very
well distributed, but Reading first Incomes fur
nished J225.000. the second incomes $217,000 and
y,e. )Xc!tcrn N,ow,YorK and Pennsylvania firsts
$214,000 to the day's total. Tho most marked
advances include Big Sandy 6's2, and Houston
and Texas first certificates 2J, to 12L

Coal Company, Judge Ewing yesterday
uieu u, uccree. -H. Hearing was to nave uccn
had in the case yesterday, but W. B. Kodgers,
Esq.. attorney for the coal company, made no
objections to the statement filed by gas com
pany. The latter agreed to lay the pipe in a
ditch, the bottom of which would be tamped
with clay for six inches, this to be covered bo
two inches of cement, then boards and cross
pieces, upon which the pipe is to rest; the sides
of the ditch to he cemented and boarded and
the pipe surrounded with broken stone, with
escape pipes.
The reason for such an elaborate arrange
ment was to overcome the objections of the
coal company, who said that the pipe line
would weaken the roofs ot their mines by
water leaking through, and that gas would es
cape into the mines. No opposition being
made, tho decree was made ordering the laving
of the pipe in the manner specified.
