THE- PITTSBURG- BISPATOH, ' TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, ' 1889
TREY AEE MISTAKEN.
Eastern Men Under the Delusion That
Pittsbun: Keal Estate is
BOOSTED BT INFLATED VALUES.
Electric Males Another Grand Spurt and
Jumps Almost Ont of Its Boots.
A BIG DAI IX THE PETROLEUM EING
It is a curious fact, but none the less true,
that some of the Eastern corporations which
have been loaning money on Pittsburg real
estate are over-careful in placing money on
some of the best securities of this kind.
The tendency has been to cut the valuations
as put upon local properties by the owners
and dealers. They claim as an excuse that
prices have become inflated and a reaction
will follow. There is nothing like being
cautious and erring on the right side for
one's own self for protection, yet a great
mistake is made anj injustice done to Pitts
burn when 6uch an inference is thrown upon
local property valuations. Pittsburg claims to
have some excellent financiers. They have
rroved themselves such bytbe manner in which
they have risen from the ranks of men of
limited means to those of wealth and influence.
"When snch men arc willing to pay the prices
asked and know they are getting a bargain,
those who are not acquainted with the value of
real estate in the city should have considera
tion enough to give them credit for at least a
small grain of common sense. ,
Pittsburg is no longer a village, a borough,
nor a town (neither is our neighbor across the
river), and there is cause for local values in
crcasirg, as any stranger conld see if he would
but visit the city and carefully study its topog
raphy. Let him look at the older part of the
city and outlying wards and note the increasing
population and manufacturing interests, the
necessity for increased facilities for doing busi
ness and the increased business that is being
done, and his skepticism would soon be dis
pelled. What is the cause of the increased
height in the buildings. Simply that business
icquircs more room and the business portion of
the city is so located that it cannot spread, con
sequently must go up. A stranger who has not
been in the city for the last ten Tears will note
this improvement, and if he be a careful ob
serveras wellasa casual inquirer, he will find
that the dilapidated buildings and unimproved
building sifes in the business portion of the
city are held either by those who are well ad
vanced in years ana wealthy, and are satisfied
with the present condition of things, or by es
tates which have not yet been settled or are in
such a shape that those who would improve are
unable to get control of them and make the
necessary improvements.
Property is certainly in demand, and there is
oo difficulty in seeing it and filling up all
clegible building sites with large and handsome
buildings. The business portion of the city is
unfortunately located between two rivers, and
those flanked by hills, thus making the space
in which the business is done limited, and
causing a demand for business places which
necessarily increases the price to an apparently
high figure and makes values seem inflated,
but the only way to appreciate this condition is
the same as with natural gas by personal in
vestigation. This would at once establish the
fact that valuations are not inflated. There
has been no boom in real estate, as careful
business men can see if tney 'Hill review the
growth of the city particularly the main bust
cess portion for the last ten years.
ILECTEIC OX THE JUMP.
It Sells nt 42, Brcnkins Last Week's Record
Central Traction Listed.
The event of the day at the Stock Exchange
was another spurt in Wcstinghonse Electric
From 41 bid in the morning, it advanced to
42 in the afternoon, with 42 asked. A small
lot sold at 42. The increasing business of the
company and the scarcity of stock were
assigned as reasons for the great strength it dis
played. Central Traction appeared upon the
list for the first time and started off at a cood
pace, sales being made as bjgh as 23. .Switch
and Signal made another burst of strength, be
ing bid up from 16 at the first call, to 18 at the
last, with 20 asked. La Noria and gas were
weaker, with the exception of Wheeling, which
was fractionally stronger.

Business at the Banks In Harmony With the
Weather.
Yesterday was a quiet day at the banks,
partly on account of the weather and partly on
account of the absence of anything of a special
nature to do. Resnlts of Saturday afternoon's
and night's retail bnsiness swelled the deposits
considerably, but otherwise there was no
feature. The doubling up of checks raised the
clearinghouse report to respectable dimensions,

Rnmored Transfer of the Bit Fonr to the
Bee Line Strengthens the Stock Mar
ketUnion Pacific Funding
Bill a Ball Card.
New York, February 11. The stock market
was remarkably strong to-day. although the
advances were in the specialties principally
and three leading groups of shares. The Trunk
lines. Grangers and Coal stocks were all quiet,
and fluctuated within the narrowest limits. The
late report of the proposed transfer or the Big
Four to the Bee Line may have had something
to do with the strength in the market, but
those stocks were neither of them active, and
neither made ahy advance. There was heavy
selling of Chicago, Burllncton and Quincy for
.Boston account, and this hadsome .influence to
check to prevailinc bullish 'feeling but its ef
fect upon prices outside of the roads closelv
connected with Burlington was very slight, and
it was a subject of universal'-comment that in
the face of such decided weakness jn that stock
that the general list exhibited snch marked
buoyancy.
The rumor that the Nebraska Board of
Transportation intended to demand the adop
tion of the Iowa tariff was the chief cause for
the weakness displayed, bnt the report of the
earnings for the past year was not without its
influence, and the stock dropped over three
Eoints, although a material recovery was made
efore the close of business. The fact that the
Union Pacific f undine bill has at last cot be.
fore the Senate was the occasion of making
Union Pacific and Oregon short line the strong
features of the list, and both on very large
business made marked advances. Among the
specialties shoning the most important gains
were Memphis ana Charleston. Peoria, Decatur
and Evansville, Columbia and Greenville pre
ferred, Pullman, Virginia Midland, Denver,
Texas and Ft, Worth certificates and Evans
ville and Terre Haute,
At the opening of business the feeling was
very bullish, but first prices were quite ir
regular as compared with the final figures of
Saturday, but advances were in a majority and
the chances extended to J per cent. The
market soon gathered strength, although Bur
lington showed at once the weakness which
afterward became so marked a feature of the
dealings. The specialties took the lead in the
upward movement, but Oregon Short Line
came to the front, soon followed by Union
Pacific Burlington was strongly attacked
after noon and the trading in the rest was some
what restricted by It for sometime, but the list
soon recovered its tone, and further gains ere
made all along the line and the weak stocks
made some recovery before 2p.m.
The amount of business done underwent a
marked increase with the return of confidence,
and the last hour was very active and the mar
ket closed strong generally at close to the best
figures. Burlington shows a loss of 2 per cent,
but the rest of the list are almost invariably
higher. Union Pacific rose 2K. Denver, Texas
and Ft. Worth certificates 1, Pullman. Peoria,
Decatur and Evansville and Canada Southern
1 each, St. Paul lji and Chicago and East
Illinois 1 per cent.
Railroads bonds were active but remarkably
well distributed, no one issue showing any
special animation, although the sales extended
to $2,029,000. The tone was generally strong
but was quite irregular, and final changes are
divided. The gains include Peoria 2nds, 3 to 74.

Soft Coal Fields to be Tapped by a Short
Railroad.
A little line of railroad, not much more than
a dozen miles long, which is about to be built
in the Clearfield soft coal region, will make a
very formidable inroad into Pennsylvania
Railroad coal traffic It will be practically an
extension of the Beech Creek Railroad, though
constructed by independent parties, and, be
sides pnshing into a region hitherto dependent
on the Pennsylvania system, will open up val
uable coal properties.
It is anticipated that the small extension will
get as much as 00,000 tons of coal per year, a
good part of which will be diverted from the
Pennsylvania Railroad. Engineers will be put
on the line within ten days. It is to be backed
by a number of Harnsburg men, together
with shippers who will be benefited by its com
pletion. Philadelphia Stocks.

The marked features of last week'stradein
country produce lines were" the upward
movement in butter and eggs.. A 3c ad
vance agreed on by the Elgin Butter Board
on Monday has been fully sustained. There is
greater activity at the advance than during the
low price period. A reliable article of country
bntter is in firmer demand at higher prices
than for a month past. One of our leading job
bers in the line of eggs and butter, who has a
reputation for pnttlng facts without addition
or subtraction, reports:
"I am handling as much stuff in one day as I
did in three a week or two ago, and get better
prices. We had a long siege of sluggish mar
kets following the holidays, much longer than
was comfortable. It now looks as though we
naa turned ine comer ana are on start tor the
active trade movement which comes usually at
this time of the year."
The first month of 1SS9 has made a record for
low priced butter and eggs, which has bad no
parallel in recent years. As toother lines of
country produce, no active movement is yet
YiMuiE. rui puuttuea. appic?, uuiuua, cauoage
and turnips trade drags its weary way along,' as
it has done since the fruits of the earth were
gathered. The provident housekeeper who
stocked his cellar in the fall with winter's sap
plies of xruit and vegetables, and took the risks
and losses from rot and frost, finds this one of
the exceptional seasons when bis thrift and
foresight did not bring their usual reward. The
hand-to-mouth policy paid best this season.
In the line of grain and hay, wheat is the
only article that gives indication of advance
the past week. The upard movement in
wheat is, without doubt, largely speculative,
but the fact stands that it has gone up 8c above
the lowest price of the weei before. Corn,
oats and hay showing arooping tendencies, and
while our quotations are lowered in the past few
days, It Js reported that even these prices have
been shaded in private deals. Retail grain
met chants complain that a much larger pro
portion than nsual of low grades are coming
lorw?.rd this season. Said one of our leading
retailers: "I have found it difficnlt often this
winter to secure a choice article of oats, not
withstanding our markets have been glutted.
While we have had immense crops in the land,
quality is much below the average."
The speculative boom in wheat has thus far
madeno impression on flour other than the de
velopment of a firmer tone.
One of our leading pork packers who claims
that the price of hogs has been higher than hog
Eroducts all this season, said that the situation
ad changed for the first time on Wednesday
last. "I claim," said he, "that since November
1, when the packing season opened, there has
been no time when hog products would have
yielded an equivalent for the price we have
had to pay for hogs till this week. There
would have been aloss to the packer who did not
have a special trade for special cuts if he had
made an immediate turn of his products. In
other words, if we had sold each day's packing
as we put it away, we would have lost money.
At last hogs have reached a price wherethere
is a small margin, and some compensation for
our labor and investment. When we consider
the cheapness and abundance of corn, prices
have been altogether too high all season from
the packer's standpoint."
The hide market shows a firmer tone the past
week. Light weights are up Jjc as compared
with January rates. A leading dealer reports
that bottom has been reached, and that greater
activity in trade is at hand. Said he: "I have
seen heavy steer hides lower tban they are now,
but have never known light hides and calfskins
as low as they have been the past month or
two." , . ,
A representative of the largest harness leather
tannery of Allegheny reports: "We believe
that our industry is In a better shape than for
some months past, and the situation and out
look are brighter tban a week ago. There is a
firmer feeling to the trade, and we expect in a
week or two to report an active movement all
along the lines of leather. Our worst months
are S'ovetnbcr and December. January was
much better than the same month last year.
We had an advance of 2c per pound in Septem
ber for our harness leather, but this was lost in
the dull months that followed, so that prices
are jut the same as a year ago. The fluctua
tions of the year have been but 2c per pound,
whereas they have been as much as 4c in the
same period within a few years."
British Grain Market.
London, February 11. The Mark Lane Ex
press, in itSweekly review of the British grain
trade, says: English wheats continue depressed.
Buyers are apathetic. The sales of English
wheat during the past week were 50,032 quar
ters at 29s 7d against 54.9S5 quarters at 303 5d
during the corresponding week last year. For
eign wheat is more active and firmer but quo
tations are unchanged. Beans and peas are 6d
and lentils is loner. At to-day's market only
the poorer English wheats were offered; the
tendency was downward.
American was a turn dearer for good Califor
nia white; no red winter was offered. Flour
was stronger, influenced by the rise of 2 francs
per sack in Paris; American advanced 6d.
corn was steady. Beans and peas recovered

Country Produce Jobblnc Prices.
It is too early in the week to furnish pointers
on country produce trade. Commission men
who were seen report the usual Monday quiet
ness of trade. Old fashioned winter weather
is the principal crumb of comfort to merchants.
As last week's trade was animprovement on
anything since holidays in the line of batter
and eggs, it is hoped and believed that other
lines of produce will fall into line and join in
the upward movement before this week is over.
Nothing more can be said than that the tone of
trade is an improvement on what we have had
for a few weeks past. And yet there is room
for farther improvement before trade reaches
a satisfactory basis.

The receipts of cattle this week are 29 cars
against 30 last week and 31 the week before.
Four loads wero heavy stock weighing .about
1,600 pounds The balance ranged from 1,100 to
1,400. There were very few light cattle in re
ceipts. The run averaged up better in quality
than for some weeks past. Two or three heavy
steers, weighing 2,000 pounds, were sold at 4c
The best price paid was for those weighing
1,500 to 1,600, the range for which was S4 75 to
85 00, 25c lower than last week. Good medium
butcher stock from 1,100 to 1,400 pounds ranged
from S4 25 to 81 50. Veal calves were scarce
and firm, but prices remain as quoted last week,
from 6 to 7c The price of bulls was $2 25 to
S3 00.
Receipts of hogs have varied very little from
600 head for a number of weeks. Heavy, rough
hogs, weighing 400 and upwards, were very
slow at $4 50. Light weights ranged from So 00
to S3 40.
The run of sheep and lambs was light, the
total beins5 head against 800 for the two
previous weeks.
Prices went up a JTc and everything was
cleaned up at the advance. One good bunch
sold at 5.
Lambs were sold at 5 to 7c and at these
figures there wero not enough to go round.
Market showed dropping tendencies in every
line excepting sheep, and this saving clause of
trade was due to scarcity of supply.

He Did Not Return IlleirnI JJqnor Sellers
Inspector McAIeeae Socked for tbe Costs
In Connolly's Case.

Criminal Conrt opened yesterday morning,
Constable P. Mclnerny, of the Fifth ward,
was placed on trial, for the second time, on
the charge of not returning illegal liquor
sellers, and making a false return, knowing

ond count of the indictment that of not re
turning Illegal liquor sellers. This concluded
the trial.
Constable P. M. Connolly, of the Ninth ward,
who was charged with a similar offense, was
put on trial next Inspector McAleese, who
was also the prosecutor In this case, was pat on
the stand. He stated that tbe information
against Connolly had been brought on informa
tion received. All the evidence was but bear
say. Upon this Judge Collier stated that It was
not right to try a man on hearsay evidence,
and that the only thing necessary was for the
jury to find a verdict of not guilty and to
place tbe costs. The jury returned in a few
minutes with the verdict of not guilty, and
placed the costs of the case on Inspector Mc
Aleese INJURY OF CHARACTER,
The Patterson Salts Against the Marine
Bank-Began Yesterday.
The suits of T. A. Baird Patterson against
the Marine National Bank, are on trial before
Judge White. The suits, it is stated, grew out
of a refusal on the part of the cashier of the

estate and was trustee for the balance in which
some of the heirs held a life interest A check
was made cut by Patterson as agent on the
bank but payment on it was refused, tho cash
ier stating that there were no funds there.
The refusal, it was claimed, was made at the
request of one of the heirs of the estate, for
which Patterson was agentand trustee. Shortly
afterward Patterson was removed as trustee
and tho Fidelity Title and Trust Company ap-
Jiolnted in his place. The snlt be now brings
s for the value of the check on which payment
was refused, be claiming that there was money
to meet it on deposit also for damages for tbe
injury to his reputation caused by the refusal
to cash his check.
A NOVEL POINT.
Tho Manufacturers' Gas Company Served
With nn Injunction.
In the equity suit of Bryce Brothers, the
Soutbside glass manufacturers, yesterday, the
novel question was raised whether or not the
Manufacturers' Natural Gas Company had the
right to discriminate in favor of those making
tbe first contracts. Tho company claim they
have this right and can shut off the gas from
their newest customers when the supply rnns
short This thev can do under an agreement
existing since May 1SS8, between the gas com
pany and some of the stockholders who were to
get tho gas before the general public was
served.
The plaintiffs claim the agreement is unlaw
ful on acconnt of the fact that the consumers
to whom the agreement was made were repre
sented in the Board of Directors. They say if
the supply is shut off for SO minutes their 34
pots would be destroyed. A preliminary in
junction restraining the company from turning
off the gas was granted.

ing a wagon along Fifth avenue, when it broke
down. A policeman advised him to remove

He arrested Golden on suspicion.
Tbe brasses were identified as some that had
been stolen from a vessel of tbe Grand Lake
