Office of Pittsburg Dispatch.
Wednesday, February 20, 1S89. J
The run of local cattle on Monday was S5
cars, an excess of 20 loads over the previous
Monday. Since the beginning of the week
6 to 8 cars have been added to the supplies.
In the receipts were 10 loads of good ship
ping stock, though not extra, weighing 1,400
to 1,500 pounds. The bulk of the supplies
were fair to coed butcher stock. About 40
loads were from Ohio, the balance from
Chicago. The best price realized was 4Jc,
which 'was for a very line bunch weighing
about 1,250 pounds each. The general range
of prices was 34c to SJc, with anything above
this as exceptional.
Heavyweight and high-priced cattle are not
in demand. Butchers scare at anything above
4c, claiming that tbey cannot compete with
dressed beef above this ficuro.
Drift of the Market.
The whole drift of the cattle market has been
downward since last fall, and the farmers who
held their stock through the winter are losers
to the extent of 2c per pound, not to speak of
the cost and trouble of feeding. Good ship
ping cattle sold this week at 4c which three
months ago would have brought 5c
The Ohio farmer, who is forced to accept
25 or $30 less on each steer than he could have
taken last fall, can hardly be expected to feel
very heavenly-minded over the situation.
Some common stock, weighing about 800
pounds. which have been held over for a couple
of weeks or moie, were closed out this week at
S3 65. When yardage expenses were paid
profits to the holder must have been infinite
esiruai or worse.
The supply of veal calves this week has been
much below demand. Not until some time in
March will calves come in in sufficient quantity
for the demands of local trade. The range of
prices is 6 to 7c, and choice would have been
taken readily to-day at the outside quotation.
Miccp and Lambs.
The supply is 12 to 15 loads greater than last
week, and prices are off Jc according to the
general testimony of dealers. Good stock has
suffered most from the decline, as common and
low grades have been down to bottom prices
for some time. Light to medium weights were
Blow at 3Kc to 5c the last figure being for ex
ceptionally fine wethers. Advices from New
York contributed to demoralization of markets
here. Sheep which cost 5c at East Liberty and
were shipped to New York to be sold at .e
mun have lelt the shipper with a small margin
on the wrong side of the line.
Lambs were in full supply, in fact too full for
demand. A bunch of extra fancy were sold at
6c, but very few brought above 6a
lie;:" Improvement Noted.
The tone of markets for hogs is an improve
ment on last week. With a run much lighter
than for several w eeks. prices have advanced.
Markets arc no longer, as for a month cast, in
the buyer's favor. An advance of 1015c is re
ported since Monday on good grades. Heavy
weights do not share in the advance.
At Chicago receipts to-day were 25,000 head,
with markets steady. Both here and there
packing hogs weighing; from 160 to 190 pounds
have been in fair demand all this week, with a
range 1015c above the closing prices of last
week.
It has been with heavy hogs as with heavy
cattle all this winter, that they have moved
riowly and brought poorest prices. And yet
with all the slowness of trade for heavy cattle
and hogs, corn has bronght better prices by
connecting it with lard and tallow.than to have
cold it direct at ruling prices this season.
McCall & Co.'a Review.
McCall & Co.'s weekly review of the live stock
trade is as follows: Receipts of cattle Monday
were 85 carloads, and market very slow and
draggy, the worst marketof the season, and sell
ing strong Ji per cent off on all grades. We give
the following as rnlingprices: Prime, 1.300 to 1.600

bulls and fat cows, S2 002 75, a few extra sold
at S3 00; fresh cows and springers, SIS 00
35 00.
The receipts of hogs have been light this
week, but with a supply about equal to the de
mand trading is slow at the advance of 510c
Sr cwt. from the close of the Drevious week,
eavy hogs continue dull and hard to sell at
low prices. We quote the market to-dav as

May Wheat Lower and July Hislier The
Market Nervous and Unsettled Hoe
Product Weak, With a Steadily
Declining Tendency.
Chicago. Wheat was active to-day, but
nervous and unsettled. The opening for
May was lc below the closing of yes
terday, and sold off Jc more, rallying lc, or to
yesterday's closing figure, again weakened, de-,
cliniag lc and alter some changes closed lc
lower thin yesterday. July, on the otherhand,
opened about c lower, sold up a trifle, then
on? Jc and later became very strong, advancing
2c, closing about lc higher than yesterday. (
It was rumored that some large houses, here
tofore identified with the bull side, were sell
ing May and buying July, the difference be
tween the two futures being too great. This
movement, however, may have been done only
for the purpose of making a turn of a few
cents, and should May decline a little further
a reverse movement will be again attempted.
It was rumored that some buying orders for
Julv delivery had been received from Cali
fornia. St. Louis millers, it was reported, had
bought 45.000 bushels of wheat, and tho party
who sold 600,000 bushels here yesterday claimed
he had inquiries from other parties for the bal
ance of the lot.
Corn ruled rather quiet most of the session,
though there were occasional periods of mod
erate activity. The feeling developed was
steady early in the day, but as the session ad
vanced a better feeling prevailed. There was
nothing new of importance developed, and
prices were governed lamely by local influ
ences. Oats steadier and a higher range of prices
was established with moderately free offerings
early.
A weak feeling prevailed in the market for
hog products and prices were about as yester
day, closing steady. Opening pales of mess pork
were made at 7c decline, which was followed
by a further reduction of 1012c Later the
market ruled steadier and prices rallied 7
10c.
' Tradinir in lard was only fairly active and the
changes in price weraslight.

A SPLIT OS- PRICES.
flow a Well-Known- Pittsburg Gen
tleman Failed to Find a Tenant.
LOCAL REAL ESTATE AGENTS'
Charges More Than Fifty Per Cent "Lower
Than Those of Other Cities.
POLITICS DELAYS A BIG REPORT
It not infrequently happens that owners
of real estate in Pittisburg complain that
agents charge too much for securing pur
chasers or tenants. An instance in point
occurred a day or two ago. A gentleman
applied to a Fourth street agent for a tenant
for a house, the rental of which lie fixed at
$800 a year. The agent said his charge
would be S15. The gentleman demurred to
this and said he thought about 2 50 would
be enongh. Of course this prevented a
bargain. This circumstance led to
a brief comparison of Pittsbnrg prices
with those of Chicago, Philadelphia aud
New York." In the former city! the gentleman
would have been charged S50 for doing less to
secure a tenant than the Pittsbnrg agent asked
S15for. In Philadelphia the price would have
been 30 and about the same in New York. It
is a fact known to many that Pittsburg real es
tate agents do more good, honest workfortheir
customers for less money than those of any
other prominent city in the country.
Tho strong hold that politics has on some
people is illustrated in the following incident:
Three prominent business men were a few days
ago selected to pass upon and settle a dispute,
to which the city is a party. Involving a large
amount of money. A decision was expected
on Tuesday, but inquiry in the afternoon de
veloped the fact that only one of tho three gen
tlemen had visited tho meeting place during
the day, and he remained there but a few min
utes. In explaining tho non-appearance of tho
expected renort, a gentleman interested in it
said yesterday: "We must excuse them this
time. They were too much interested in poli
tics to attend to business. Besides. I suppose
they thought tho report would keep and poli
tics wouldn't."
Western people are proverbially quick to act
upon a snggestion. In business matters they
aro not disposed to wait for the slow process of
natural selection or the fitful action of private
enterprise. A bill was introduced in the Wis
consin Assembly last week providing for an ap
propriation of $15,000 to establish and maintain
a station, with the necessary mulberry orchards,
etc, to give a thorough trial of the practicabil
ity of silk culture in that State. In the same
week a bill was passed by the Kansas House of
Representatives to encourage the manufacture
of sugar in that State by enabling municipali
ties to vote bonds to aid in the construction of
sugar factories. Any city of the second class is
to be permitted to subscribe not over 20,000,
and any city o the third class, or township, or
village, S10.000. The voters are to pass upon the
question at any general or special election.
Small beginnings in business ailairs often
lead to fortune. Many illustrations of the
truth of this proposition may be found in Pitts
burg. One of them came to light yesterday.
Twelve or 15 years ago a gentleman of small
means bought about an acre of ground a short
distance beyond East Liberty for a few hundred
dollars, for prices were very low at that time.
He held it for two or three years and sold at a
profit of nearly $2,000. Ho immediately rein
vested his money in land a little farther out,
holding it for several years and selling at a big
advance over the original price. Again he
placed his monev in land, this time being able
to purchase several acres. During the past
year he has sold enough of his last purchase to
enable him to build a fine residence. He has
over an acre of around left, which he values at
S10.000. By the exercise of good judgment in
the selection of the field of action, the gentlo
man in question has secured a handsome little
fortune in a short time.
According to reliable reports, an encouraging
feature of the Western trade situation is the
increased business now reported by the rail
roads. Freight officials connected with the
lines radiating from Chicago, particularly to
the West and Northwest, state that their busi
ness has picked up rapidly in the past two
weeks. The average improvement in the quan
tity of freight carried on these lines is esti
mated at 25 to SO per cent. This is a very de
cided gain and the change is visible in every
quarter affected by railroad interests.

OIL HOLDS FIRM.
Qnick nnd Easy Kecoverles from the Usual
Temporary Depressions. ,
The oil market was active as well as strong
nearly all day yesterday. It opened at 90c,
about the same as the close of Tuesday, sold off
in a tew minutes to 90Jc, and then gradually
recovered, reaching 020, the highest point,
shortly after 2 o'clock. The market then fluc
tuated between 91if c and SIMc for the rest of
the dav, closing at the latter figures, with the
chances about even whether it will sell higher
this morning or slump off and take a new start.
There was good general trading here. In New

Stocks Open at Sllcht Concessions, bnt Rally
and Recover Lost Ground Barling
ton Lends in Weakness Slight
Changes In Rail-
ro-td Bonds.
New Yobk, February 20. The stock market
to-day showed animation accompanied by con
siderable strength during tho first hour, but
after that it sank to midsummer dullness, with
no movement or feature of any kind, and the
net result of the day's operations is to leave
prices in most of the list practically unchanged
from those of last evening. Operators were
still awaiting news from tho conference
at Chicago, and transactions were restricted
to the smallest limit as there was little
expectation that anything could be known dur
ing the session of the beard, and while no news
was received, there were rumors and talk in
plentj', and that was principally of a bearish
nature, the assertion that the Inter-State Asso
ciation was a failure being repeated in several
shapes. Some talk of further shipments of
gold was made the most of, and the fact that
the Union Pacific funding bill must lie over
until the session was heard-of a great deal. The
efforts of the bears to get prices down, how
ever, met with but little success, and the mar
ket was well held throughout, though very dull.
The opening was made generally at slight
concessions from last evening's figures, and
strenuous efforts were made to break the
Grangers in the early dealings, and some im
pression was made upon Burlington and
Quincy, which sold ex-dividend 1 per cenL and
it yielded 1 percent followed by the South
westerns, but the losses were insignificant. In
everything except Burlington a strong tone
was developed before the end of the first hour,
and froin that time prices slowlv improved
while dullness became the only feature of im
portance. In the afternoon there was some
concession from the best prices of the fore
noon, but no weakness was apparent anvwhero
in the list, and toward delivery hour tho
strength reappeared and the highest flgmes
were again reached. Chattanooga, whicn had
opened down 1J at 89, recovered the loss and
closed unchanged, nut thcro was no other
movement in the entire afternoon nad stagna
tion prevailed throughout. The market closed
dull but firm at the best prices and generally at
suiaii iracuous ueimr tuau last evening s prices.
Railioad bonds shared the dullness with
stocks, but were comparativelvmore animated,
tho dealings reaching 1,703,000, which amount,
was very evenly distributed among a large num
ber of issues. There was however, the same
lack of feature which distinguished tho deal
ings in shares, and tho movements. while gener
ally for small fractious, were quite irregular,
and final changes are about equally divided be
tween gains and losses. Among those wh'ch
are liicher to-niht aro Richmond and Finn.
