THE PITTSBURG- DISPATCH, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 27,"
1 BRIGHT PROSPECT.
Twine Trust in the Kortliwest Boy-
cotted by Farmers.
HESIP UKPRECEDENTEDLY HIGH.
Ohio Farmers Are in Tribulation Over Too
Much Prodnce.
A GOOD OUTLOOK FOR TEE KEW CROP
Office of Pittsburg Dispatch, J
Tuesday, March 28, 1SS9. J
The current number of the Minneapolis
Miller contains some disquisitions on the
hemp trade, from which the following items
are in substance culled:
"All are in accord as to the hydra-headed
Hemp Trust which proposes to eat up the gen
tle farmer, and finish off by crunching his
bones. The price of binder's twine has risen
largely In the year past, a fact which is some
thing perplexing to the unsophisticated, as the
! supply and demand have been uniform from
year to year. In the year 1SSS the National
. Cordage Company beared markets either
I through error or ulterior designs by holding off
frTm its usual purchases penning the result of
national tariff legislation calculated to affect
prices. All other companies engaged in twine
manufacture followed the pxainple of the
National Cordage Company, and bought spar
ingly last year.
The fact has developed that there will be no
drug. The National Cordage Company a snort
time ago plunged into market and bought up
nearly all raw and finished material that was
available. Whether this company will use its
present power to the utmost is unknown. The
advance on hemp has already added from 1 to
:& per bushel on grain.
Twine binders are almost universally used in
large grain growing districts.
Grain growers are squirming under this ad
ditional tax and meetings of farmers are being
held through the Northwest to boycott the
twine trust. The Miller is of the opinion that
the advance in hemp products is more due to
under-production than to trusts, and there is a
greater scareitv than appears on the surface.
It says: "Hemp is bulling itself rather than
being balled."
Whether or not farmers have a real griev
ance on the hemp question, it is a stubborn
fact that price of binders is above anything in
recent years.
Wheat Bell.
From the wheat lands of Minnesota and Da
kota comes the report that not only will a
larger area be planted, but seeding has com
menced two weeks earlier than usual. If
present favorable weather holds out the plant
ing time of 1SS9 will make a record for an early
start far beyond anything in recent years.
The Minneapolis journal already quoted,
which is a recognized authority on all things
pertainingto breadstuffs, speaking of this early
needing, says: "The chief fear is the quality of
f-eed being planted, but with favorable weather
good results are in the main to be hoped for
Early seeding is seldom followed by a failure of
crop. Last year little was done in seeding
through Dakota and Minnesota till the middle
of April. On the 20th of April not more than
25 per cent of the seed was in the ground."
All of this goes to encourage bears and de-
Sress bulls in ubeat. But the Minneapolis
tiller is in a strait betwixt the two, having a
desire to boost flour manufacturers, and at the
same time cherishing fears that nrospects for
the new crop are too bright for maintenance of
high priced wheat and flour.
Ohio Farmers' Trials.
A commission merchant of our city who has
jnst returned from a trip through Trumbull
county, Ohio, furnishes some items of interest
on the produce situation. Onions, potatoes,
turnips, apples and cabbage are in snch supply
that Trnmbull county farmers are in vain look
ing for an outlet for their stuff. As good pota
toes as ever grew are waiting for customers at
25c per bushel. Atthis figure Trumbull county
farmers are ready to deliver them at the rail
road. Onions and turnips have no money
value.
The farmer has found this a season when
kind heaven has sent him too much of verv
thlng. "He has no room to bestow his fruits
and goods."
The bad country roads the past winter, which
have been made responsible for much of the
farmers' mishaps, have in fact had little to do
with the trouble. Good sleighing and smooth
roads ould have omv brought a greater glut to
an overcrowded market. The secret of all the
trouble is too-much-ness of everything pro
duced in garden or field. The only question
now is, how much can be saved from thn wreck.
There was but one article which our commis
sion man could discoverin his Trumbull county
trip that was not afflicted in the line of too-much-ness,
and that was maple sweets.
Of this, this season's crop is below the ave
rage, and prices are the same as a year ago.
All else that fanners have to sell goes begging
for customers.

The German Iron and Steel Syndicate.
A Berlin correspondent says that at the close
of last year the Association of German Iron
and Steel Manufacturers numbered 320 mem
bers, which represented 60 iron mines, with
18.000 workmen, 220 furnaces and rolling mills
and 47 tin-plate works, with 90,000 hands; 229
foundries, with 28,000 workmen; 32 nail, screw
and chain works; 136' engineering establish
ments and 21 railway carnage works; also 15
shin-bniiding companies, besides several col
lieries. Altogether, this association represents
23W0O workmen and an aggregate capital of
1,200,000.000 marks, the most important group
. belonging to the Dusseldorf district, which is
followed by that or the Frankfort manufac
turers. Dressed Meat.

Chicago The wheat market was quiet to
day and most of the time ruled dull. The feel
ing was unsettled and prices were subject to
sudden and frequent changes without much
trading, which was particularly the case in the
May future. May delivery is getting to be a
fancy trade, and parties wishing to sell found
it difficult to do so without causing a sharp
break, and the same can be said of parties try
ing to purchase when a rapid advance would
result An order for 25.000 bushels of May
caused prices to advance from $1 01K to SI 02
before the oi der was filled.
Operators are getting out of May and the
trades remaining are mostly blocks or lines
which operators evidently intended to carry
through. May opened firmer and advanced
life, fluctuated and closed about c higher
than vesterdav. July attracted the principal
attention and opened at jesterday's close, de
clined c, advanced at iYfi and closed Arm
and lie higher. ,
There was but little interest manifested in
corn, trading being on a limited scale and con
fined almost entirely to room operators within
V.a range. The feeling was steady, though at
times an easier tone was disolayed, but prices
did not show any material change from yester
day. In oats an increased business was transacted,
and a higher range of prices secu red. Early in
the day offerings were light, several operators
taking hold, and by vigorous bidding caused an
advance of Kc on May, and xic on June.
On the appreciation paities who bought early
tried to sell, and a decline of a Jc resulted.
The market held steadily for a time, but an in
creased demand from a large short produced a
firmer feeling and a rally of Hc resulted on
Mav, the close being firm at outside prices, and
i& over yesterday's sales.
In mess pork a good business was transacted
in May and July, and the market was strong.
Opening sales were made at 57c decline, but
prices quickly rallied 25c. At this improve
ment there was more pressure to sell, and
prices declined 710c. Near the close the
market was active, and prices rallied 1517c
closing firm.
Trading was fair in lard, and the feeling was
comparatively steady. Prices ruled 710c
higher.
A comparatively light business was reported
in short ribs, and the market exhibited only
slight changes. Prices ruled 7J10c higher.

HINTS FROM BRAZIL.
A Good Opening for Enterprising" American
Manufacturers German Trade.
In this Province, San Pedro de Rio Grande
do Sul, there were three railways in operation,
and one or two other lines projected, for which
preliminary surveys have been made. The
lines in operation are Estenda de Pierre de
Rio Grande a Bage, opened -for traffic on De
cember 2, 1884, and two other lines. The loco
motives are from the Baldwin Locomotive
Works, in the United States, and burn Cardiff
coal. The Germans have done much to extend
their trade in Brazil during the past few years.
Commercial travelers cannot do much in Brazil
unless a very large number of samples are car
ried, because the Brazilian merchant does not
believe much in anything except ocular dem
onstration. Exporters and manufacturers should estab
lish an international bureau covering all the
sources of supply, with a sharp man who
knows his work, and who is not above teaching
t"-at work to agents of his -own in the country.
Manufacturers in the patticnlar Province of
Rio Grande do Sul, to which these remarks'
most especially apply, are not extensive,
although flannels, cloths, cashmeres and
blankets are made at a fairly reasonable rate.
Wnnt of Coal In Rassla.
Never before has the want of coal been felt
more keenly, says a correspondent at St Peters
burg, who declares that the coal crisis there
this winter has assumed unexpected propor
tion1;. Jhe fact is Russians do not understand
mining, the consequence being that the price
of coal is high at the present time higher than
it was ever before. It is mentioned as natur
ally an extraordinary incident that the Kursk
Azov Railway, which traverses Russia's richest
coal districts, had this winter to purchase Eng
lish coal.
BEIGHT AND CHEERY.
Wonderful Transformation Wrought
by Natural Gas and Paint.
TEHPEEAHCEV1LLE IN THE SWIM.
Northside Boulevard Improvement and
Wilkinsburg Waterworks.
THE PROFITS 0P A PITTSBURG BANK.
The house painter is abroad in the land
and vigorously wielding his brush in all
parts of the city and suburbs. This is as
good an indication of spring as the appear
ance of robins and blackbirds. Faint is a
great transformer. Its judicions applica
tion to dingy walls and fences makes them
look as bright and fresh as if they were
brand new. Evidence of this may be seen
on almost any street in the city. Let the good
work go on. There is no longer excuse for
dingy-looking houses in Pittsburg, where soot
and smoke are comparatively unknown. It Is
no longer the Smoky City. Natural gas has
effected a complete revolution In this respect
The city will soon be as renowned for its bright
cheery appearance as it formerly was for grime
ana dirt
That the banking business in Pittsburg is
profitable is shown in the fact that one of these
institutions, organized ten months ago, has
paid up to date a clear profit of 6 per cent.
This comes from one of the directors of the
bank in question. He added: "We are fully
satisfied with the financial situation."
Temperancevllle is beginning to wake up.
Several fine business houses are in course of
erection there, which will add materially to its
appearance and business facilities. There is
quite a rush for building lots in West End
place, jnst back of Temperancevllle, over 100
having been sold within a short time, and half
a dozen houses built This shows that the de
mand for real estate is not restricted to a par
ticular locality, but that It is shared by all sec
tions adjacent to the city. The progressive
community at the mouth of Sawmill run de
serves credit for what it has done, and still
more for what it proposes to do.
The ruins at Wood street and Diamond alley
having been cleared away, building operations
will begin in a few days, stone and other ma
terial having been hauled to the ground, where
it is ready for the mason and the carpenter.
Referring to thif, a business man said yester
day: "I think they are in a hurry to com
mence those houses and get them well under
way before the street widening question is
settled. They think by doing so to shut ont
the p oposed Improvement altogether."
The project for Improving the roadway or
boulevard around the Allegheny City parks
will be handed over to the incoming Councils
to dispose of. While the improvement is gen
erally admitted to be necessary, as a means of
enhancing the beauty of the parks as well as
for convenience, the method that has been pro
posed for assessinghe costs altogether upon
abutting property meets with considerable op
position, on the ground that as all the citizens
would enjoy the benefits they should help to
pay the expense. This question is likely to be
a lively issue when the new Councils organize
and get down to work.
The Wilkinsburg Water Works, it is expect
ed, will be completed by July or August
Workmen are laying pipes on several streets in
the borough and putting in water plugs. Water
will be pumped from the Allegheny river into
a reservoir a short distance above Hiland, and
thence conducted to the borough, a distance of
about two miles. As soon as a sufficient sup
ply of water is assured a steam fire engine will
be purchased, the frequency of fires in the
borough rendering this outlay necessary.
Company stores must go. A bill has just been
introduced in the Illinois Legislature, and is
making rapid progress toward enactment into
law, making It an offense for any person, com
pany, corporation or association now engaged
or hereafterto be engaged in any mining or
manufacturing business in that State to en
gage in. or be interested In, directly or indi
rectly, the keeping of a track store, or con
trolling of any store, shop, or scheme for the
furnishing of supplies, tools, clothing, provis
ions or groceries to his, its or 'their employees
while so engaged in mining or manufacturing.
All attempts to evade or avoid the provisions
of the act by contract or otherwise, are to be
punished by fines of not less than 50, nor more
than $200.
A BIG DAI U STOCKS.
Electric and Philadelphia Gas Slill Active
No Mnterlnl Change in Prices.
The stock market was active yesterday over
2,000 shares changing hands, Philadelphia Gas
and Electric being the principal contributors,
but pnees did not vary materially from those of
Monday. Philadelphia Gas opened in the
morning at o sold up to 40, and then receded
to 39, where it held the rest of the day. The
first sale of Electric was at 6 and it sold at
the same Drice In the afternoon, with offers
more numerous than bids. Several brokers did
not attempt to fill their orders, believing they
could do better by waiting. The best bid for
Wheeling Gas was 30, with 31 asked. Chartiers
Gas was wanted at 51, but it was held 50 cents
higher. There were no transactions in extra of
these stocks. Switch and Signal was dealt In
to a small extent at 23. There was a sale of
100 shares ofLaNoria at 1. This seemed to
satisfy the demand. Tractions were weak and
neglected. The tone of the market at the close
was rather bearish. Bidsand offers:

The Money Market in Good fehapo for the
SpriDg Trade.
The local monetary situation yesterday was
in a better condition than usual at this time of
the year, just the close of winter and at the
beginning of the spring trade. The good
weather "with which this vicinity has been
favored for nearly two weeks has produced a
better feeling in business circles, and there is
more disposition among the people to be up
and doing. Discounting was of moderate pro
portions, but checking and depositing were up
to the average, while the Clearing House re
port showed a large volume of general trade,
the exchanges amounting to $1,904,587 92 and
the balances to $463,683 SO.
Money on call at New York yesterday was
easy at 35 per cent; last loan at 5; closed
offered at 5. Prime mercantile paper, 46V.

UPS AXD DOWNS IN OIL.
A Good Opening Followed by Depression
and Lower Prices.
There were no disturbmg influences at work
In the oil market yesterday to excite either
bulls or bears. Opening with a firm undertone
at 92, the market quickly advanced , at which
price 25.000 barrels were dumped. It then
gradually declined to 91 on free offerings,
and held around that figure until the last hour,
when it further weakened and sold at 01. A
few small blocks were absorbed at this price,
which sent the quotation up to 91, from
which it receded to 91, which was the closing
price. Carrying was flat
The following shows past and present prices
of crude in the lower oil country: Highest
crude, 1887, 90: Sc premium added, 98J4; high
est refined, 1887, 7; March 26, 1889,
crude, 91; 22, average premium ad
ded, $1.14; refined, 7c. Difference in price
of crude, 152ac: difference in refined. c.
This equals in crnde 16c, amounting to 31c.
In other words, the Pittsburg refiner has to pay
31Jic more for crude now than in 1887, with
nothing material to offset this in the price for
refined, and would seem to wipe out all profit
The practical offset of this, it is held, Is to
squeeze out lower county pipe lines and give
the Standard a monopoly of the business.
Field news was to the following effect: Mc
Keown No. 6 is doing 28 barrels per hour; Mc
Keown No. 10 Is doing 10 barrels per hour; Mc
Kcown No. 11 is doing 18 barrels per hour;
Union Oil Comnany Robert Knox No. 2 Is in
the stray sand, and due to-day. Nineveh, Smith
is doing 55 per day. Turkeyfoot Gaily was
torpedoed and is doing 180 barrels per day.
Covertry. at Murdockville, is due to-day.

STOOKSTSHAKY.
Reported Rnte Cntilng by the Pennsy De
presses the Coalers Money a Factor ,
in tho Dealings Heavy Close
Bonds Active.
New York. March 26. The stock market
was fairly active to-day, with considerable
f everlshness and decided weakness In the lead
ing shares, outside of which, however, there
was almost no feature or movement of inter
est The continued outpour of long stock In
Atchison, Burlington and Rock Island was the
great feature of the dealings to-day, and the
only moving force in the market, and while
there were times when they all had a firm look,
only Burlington succeeded in really recovering
its loss. London came in as a buyer to-day,
but its purchases were small and did not touch
the leading shares at all. On the other hand
the recent doleful utterances of some of the
officials of the Burlington were used with effect
upon the grangers and Sonthwesterns. The
reported cut in rates to Southern points by the
Pennsylvania had a depressing effect upon the
coal stocks, and Reading was subjected to con
siderable pressure without however, yielding
to any appreciable extent.
Money again came up as a factor in the
course of prices, and the report that a large
amount had been called in for a special pur
pose aided in running tbo rate on call up to 5 per
cent, at which It closed for the day. The bears
were not idle In getting the market down, but
the amount of long stocks brought out is be
lieved to have been smaller to-day than on
either of the previous few days. Atchison,
Burlington and Rock Island fairly monopo
lizied the attention of operators during the
greater portion of the day. It was steadily
forced down with insignificant reactions from
45J to 43. and it closes, within J of the lowest
figure. The other two were savagely attacked
in the first hour, and both reached the lowest
prices of the day, and afterward fluctuated
violently at times, but succeeded in regaining
the loss.
Late in the day Northwestern and Missouri
Pacific were attacked and both yielded readily,
but neither shows a material loss for the day.
Among the rest of the list there was consider
able strength shown in Cotton Oil and Tennes
see Coal, and weakness In Chesapeake and Ohio,
but tho remainder were dull and stagnant
throughout The market finally closed rather
heavy, with most stocks at close to the opening
figures but the leaders, with the exception of
Burlington and Rock Island, which was helped
by the dividend, at the lowest' The final
changes are irregular, though declines are
somewhat more numerous than gains, but the
only important changes were losses of 1 in
Atchison and 1 in Chesapeake and Ohio pre
ferred, and a gain of 1J4 in Tennessee Coal.
The railroad bond market was somewhat
more animated to-day, and the dealings ex
tended to a larger number of issues than usual
of late. The sales of all issues aggregated
$1,343,000, out of which the Denver and Rio
Grande Western assented bonds contributed
$212,000 and the Chesapeake and Ohio 5s $135,
000. The market also showed more prononnced
strength than for some time, and important de
clines this evening are'Tery few in number.
Tie Denver assented bonds were the special
feature of the day, and rising from 89 to 91
closed at 90, a net gain of 1. Other marked
advances were Denver and South Park lsts, 2
to 87, and Cairo. Arkansas and Texas lsts, 2
to 106. The losses Include Gulf, Colorado and
SanuFe2ds.2at7S. '

Country Produce' Jobbing Prices.
In lines of farm and garden products there is
no revival in sight Commission merchants,
who take an optimistic view of the situation,
are in a small minority. No reaction from last
week's drop in eggs as yet appears. Prices are
even lower. The cash buyer had no trouble
securing all he wanted to-day at lie Maple
syrup crop is below the average in quantity.
This fact would in ordinary seasons stimulate
prices, but this season is an exception to all
ordinary rules, and even home-made sweets go
slow. The quantity of onions, apples and cab
bage traveling to" the garbage pile is beyond
anything for many years past As the season
draws to a close, and now stuff comes in more
freely every week, little remains for those who
are unfortunate enough to be left on last year's
produce but to let it go for whatever it will
bring. Improvement in country roads only
serves to add to the excess of stuff, which has
all along been too large for the capacity of con
sumers. Butter Creamery, Elgin, 28c; Ohio do,
