Wkdnesdat. April 10, 1SS& J
Receipts were 55 loads Monday and 10
Tuesday against 85 loads last weak. All
'were promptly sold, excepting a few com
mon stockers. The proportion of light and
heavy cattle was better adapted to tbe wants of
our local trade than what we hare been receiv
ing for a few weeks past. For a few weeks
there has been too large a proportion of light
weights. This week the distribution has aBout
met the wants of trade, showing that shippers
are catching on to the situation here. One-half
of this week's supplies were from Chicago. The
other half were mainly Ohio cattle, with a few
loads from Indiana. The bulk of supplies were
common to good butcher stock. The ma of
stockers and feeders was considerably below
that of last week. Last week a heavy dose of
common stockers was dumped onto this market
from Chicago. This week there were not as
many, bnt the grade of those received was not
up to the standard. Nice stockers and feeders,
such as will come in early off grass, were in
good demand at S3 403 60, according to qual
ity. Of this grade there were not enough to go
around, and seldom are at this season of the
year. Markets were weak for low grade
stockers.
An old-time stockman thus puts the situa
tion as to stockers and feeders- "We can't get
enough of the Simon pure, but knot heads,
with horns straight up and tails straight down
are a drag." The latter class of cattle are the
only one's in this week's supplies did not sell
better than last week. The range of prices for
good tutcher stock and shippers was $4 00 to
$4 50. Good medium butcher stock sold at
$3 75 to S3 90. The range tor light butcher
stock was $3 40 to $3 60 On all fat grades
markets were 20 ro 25c higher than last week.
Fair to good stockers n ere fair to steady. Com
mon stockers were not wanted and could only
be sold at concessions. All were sold this
morning, with the exception of a few loads of
these low grade stockers. Bulls that were fat
and weighed from 1,100 to 1,800 pounds were in
active demand. Heavy coarse bulls and light
thin ones w ere not wanted and could only be
sold at a sacrifice.
Calves were very plenty,as they always aro
at this time of the year. The range of pries
was 54 00 to H 75. A few fancy calves weighing
from 120 to 140 pounds, a month old, sold at
$3 00.
frheep and Lambs.
Supplies are not up to demand, and prices
a full quarter above those which ruled a week
ago. btockmen say that the short run is due
to the fact that farmers hold back their stock
at this season for clipping purposes. In the
early part of last week markets were slower
here than at any live stock center in the land.
About the middle of the week the discovery
was made that we were too low in our ideas
here. Pittsburg was a day or two behind Buf
falo. Chicago and Kansas City catching on to
the elevation of sheep prices. Now she is firm
ly there, and for a week past the situation here
is in the holder's lavor. Markets are firmer
this week than they have been any time this
season.
Hoes.
The run is light but equal to demand. A
dealer reports that he has not known so light a
run on Wednesday for many years as to-day.
Isot more than two carloads were received.
The range of prices was Jo to S5 15. A few
bunches of extra selected Yorkers were sold at
to 0. The outside price at Chicago to-day was
H 95, an advance of 5c on yesterday's prices.
SlcCall & Co.'s Report.
The receipts of cattle are light and market
active at an advance of 20 to 30 per cent on all

New Yobk. April 10. Jobbers of drygoods
were more busy to-day than yesterday. Prices
were fairly regular and steady. Business with
agents consisted of moderate filling in orders
from jobbers for many styles of goods, mostly
cotton, and a brisk demand for novelties.
Satines and fancy white goods are selling for
future delivery. The cotton goods market is
steady. Bleached goods have a freer move
ment "and some heavy yarn goods have been
cleaned up. Prices are unchanged.
Wool Markets.
St. Louis Owing to tbe open winter the clip

Wheat Unsettled, With May nnd Jnne
Options a Trifle Higher July Lower
Corn and Oats Lose Ground
Hoc Prodncta Abont Steady.
Chicago The volume of business In wheat
to-day was not as great as that of yesterday,
though still of fair proportions. The feeling
was a little unsettled, and prices were advanced
somewhat above yesterday's closing, but the
.full improvement was not sustained. May
opened weaker and advanced 2c above inside
figures, receded and closed about ie higher
than yesterday's closing. Jnne advanced 2Js"c,
declined lc and closed U.C higher than yester
day. July opened at about yesterday's dosing,
eased off He, and then advanced lc, became
weaker and declined lc, and closed about c
lower than yesterday.
The advance brought out rather free offer
ings, parties who had bought at the lower
prices feeling inclined to realise, and the in
creased offerings created the subsequent de
cline. The shorts, too, had covered freely, and
there was less demand. There was some buy
ing for May delivery, credlted-to parties who
were Identified with the buU Interest, while the
trading In the more deferred futures was gen
eral. A fair business was transacted in corn, and
the feeling was easier. The longs were selling
out and the shorts covering. The market
opened a shade lower than yesterday's closing,
fluctuated frequently within c range, and
closed full iic lower than yesterday.
An unsettled feeling developed in oats and
prices were irregular. A good business was
transacted. Prices for May were bidupjitfi
fC bnt at the advance free selling was in
dulged in"by the Iongs,and a weaker feeling de
veloped aha the appreciation was lost.
A fairly active trade was reported In mess
pork. Prices ruled irregular. Early sales were
madeat57Kc decline, out the reduction was
quickly recovered, with fair buying, mainly for
May delivery. Later the offerings were en
larged and prices closed at inside figures.

Fearful Work of a Fast Freight Engine In
the Early Morning.
Chicago, April 10 Just as the regular
east-bound train of" the Santa Fe road was
leaving Lorenzo station, which is 50 miles
from Chicago, at 450 o'clock this morning,
an extra fast stock train, following, ran into
the rear of the passenger train at a good
speed, demolishing the private car of Henry
R. Hart, and damaging the freight engine
so that large quantities of steam escaped,
scalding those who had escaped from the
effects of the crash.
The following were killed: Henry K.
Hart, Miss Alice "Winslovr, Thomas Smith,
cook; Harry, the porter. The injured at
Mercy Hospital are John L. Hart and
wife, Henry; "W. Lamb and E. Ii Palmer.
Their injuries are nearly identical, consist
ing of severe scalds on the hands, laces and
legs. As far as ascertainable in their
present condition no bones were broken.
The surgeons in attendance greatly fear that
pneumonia will supervene, in which cases
their chances of recovery will be rery poor.
Miss Winslow was the fiancee of Mr. Lamb.

Suggestions of Importance to Both
Sides of the Controversy.
SLOW COLLECTIONS EXPLAINED.
A Pittsburg Firm Compelled to Send East
for Supplies of HardTrare.
STILL ANOTHER EAST END PAEADISE
The leading event that occupies publie
attention in real estate and local business
circles these days continues to be the pro
posed widening of Diamond street. Sum
maries have been made of all the purchases
between Market and Smithfield, which have
been separately reported in TheDispatch
from day to day as they were madeaduring
the past two months. These now aggregate
over $500,000, beginning with the Marvin
sale of 60 feet, and ending, so far, with a
sale of 40 feet, the Bihlman property, so
long and so well known for its restaurant
Mr. J. M. Ouffey.was the buyer of this lot at
540,000. The question now is. will the street be
widened and how farT The ordinances pend
ing before Councils leave this wholly to the
abutting property owners. The new purchasers,
who are reported as including among others
the well-known and enterprising capitalists and
business men, Messrs. Mellon, Magee,
Frick and Craig, have tbe widening
in view. Many of the older owners on the
street favor it likewise. The difficulty, such as
it may be, will come in adjusting fair allow
ances for the property that is damaged or
wholly taken. The general business opinion is
that what is untouched willbe increased in
value from the average price of about $1,000
per foot, at which it has been bought, to at
least 52,000 per foot, and possibly $3,000 where
the lots are 120 feet deep. This increase leaves
ample margin for paying damages.
As to that part of Diamond street above
Smithfield, little has been said and nothing
done beyond introducing an ordinance which
likewise leaves the widening there to the prop
erty owners. Above Smithfield, the street is
already wider by ten feet than below. This
widening is complete on the northerly sidS
where The Dispatch buildiug stands. The
southerly side is about three-fourths of the
length widened. What is now mostdesrable
on the part of Diamond street above Smith
field is a reduction of 'the grade so as to make
the outlet to Forbes and the East End easier.
This, it is supposed, will be considered.
Several Pittsburg firms in the drygoods and
grocery trades complain of tbe tardiness of
their country customers in paying their bills.
A member of one of the firms in question said
yesterday that he had never known collections
to be slower. Country merchants have a good
excuse for this. The roads were in such a
wretched condition dnring the winter that they
were unable to market the prodnce they had
taken in exchange for goods. The result was
that they were unable to meet their bills as
they fell due. This Is further evidence of the
fact that bad roads cost tbe country a large
sum of money every year by cutting down the
volume of business.
The Sunday fire that destroyed the Hubbard
ax factory upset the calculations of several
large hardware firms. One of them had placed
orders there for a full line of axes and shovels
for the spring trade. The fire came before any
part of the order had been filled. The firm will
now be compelled to purchase from Eastern
manufacturers. If the fire had occurred a few
weeks later Pittsburg would be a good many
thousand dollars better off.
There is a good demand for warehouse floors
on side streets. They are wanted for light
manufacturing and other kinds of business
that do not demand a central location. Build
ings of this description are scarce, and pay
from 8 to 10 per cent, on the investment. This
is a pointer for capitalists.
Real estate is still a live interest in and
about Pittsburg. The demand for all descrip
tions of property is unabated. Several large
transactions are in course of development, but
are not quite ripe enough to cut. One of them
is the transfer of abont 25 acres in an East End
suburb to a syndicate composed of local capi
talists. If the deal materializes the purchasers
will, during the summer, put up about 50 houses
on the property and sell the remainder in
large-sized lots to persons who will agree to put
up first-class buildings. If all the plans are
carried out the place will be one of the tomest
in the .East End.
The big bank vault in the Fidelity building Is
approaching completion. The doors are up
-and part of the roof is in place. The job, it is
thought, will be completed in about two weeks,
when there will be a grand test of its ability to
withstand tbe assaults of experts in the line of
opening strong boxes. The cost of the vault
will be .about $75,000.
James W. Drape 4 Co. have sold about 30
houses at auction this season at prices ranging
from SI. SOO to $30,000. One advantage derived
from selling property this way, Mr. Drape re
marked, is that it brings all the prospective
buyers face to face and compels them to act
promptly; and it generally results in securing
higher prices by getting up a friendly rivalry
between the bidders.
A syndicate of local business men, headed by
Joseph S. Brown, Esq . has purchased the con
trolling interest in the Allegheny and New
Brighton Turnpike road at a price approxi
mating 5100,000. It is the general opinion that
the road will be utilized as the route for a new
rapid transit line, to be operated on the cable
system, by electricity, by steam or some new
motive power. There are other theories, how
ever. A gentleman who claimed to know de
nied that tbe Fort "Wayne Railroad Company
was in any way interested in the deal.
AFEAID OF EACH OTHER.
Stock Brokers Still Ploying; the Game of
Watch and Walt.
Yesterday was a dull day on the Stock Ex
change, the totl sales amounting to only 415
shares. One side was afraid to buy and the
other afraid to sell, lest their harmonious rela
tions should be disturbed and the market show
a divergence in favor of the other fellow. The
result was that there were a good many held
over orders. The gassers were barely steady
with the exception of Philadelphia, which was
fractionally stronger. Electric was under a
cloud, going In a small way at 57. Switch and
Signal sold at 26 in the forenoon, but a slight
attack of depression in tbe afternoon caused it
to drop half a point. Tractions were as usual
of late dull apa neglected, the only one show
ing any life being the Pittsburg, 35 shares of
which changed hands at 49. Central is badly
handicapped by fears of an assessment. Bids

ANOTHER "VIEW OF IT. '
Borrowers Not Altogether Dependent Upon
the Banks for Favors.
Bates for money at the local banks yesterday
were unchanged, but a stronger undertone was
reported, which was encouraging as far as It
went. People are not making as much paper
as the bankers wouldlike, but this ii accounted
for, fn part, by the fact that private loans are
larger than usual. A large number of persons
are doing a thriving bussines in this way.
While this is rather hard on the banks, it is all
the samo to business, tbe only difference being
that It does not count in the clearings, leading
some people to think that nothing is doing, be
cause bank funds keep on accumulating.
Keeping this fact in view, it will readily be
seen that tbe condition of business should not
be gauged by the quantity of paper passing
through the regular financial channels. The
exchanges were 52,162,896 61, and the balances
5505.765 52.
Money on call at New York yesterday was easy
at 3 to tyi per cent. Last loan 3, closed iffered

Report of the Pipe Lines Palls toDlstnrb the
Oil market.
The monthly report of the pipe lines, posted
on 'Change yesterday, had no appreciable ef
fect on the oil market. Bullish news has com
pletely lost its virtue. The day was one of the
dullest of the year. The opening price was
S9c. From this the market rallied to 99c, and
then to 90c which was the top price. It held
around this price nntil near the close, when it
dropped to 89Jc, which were tbe final figures.
Trading in puts and calls indicated a belief in
a slight improvement, but between this and a
lower level the chances seemed to be about
even. Several operators wbo had been holding
oil since the price was above 92c, were noticed
selling about 100.000 barrels, showing they had
lost confidence in a spring boom.

And by Good Baling Give Stocks a Hand.
some Boost Nearly Everything Fairly
Active and Higher Railroad
Bonds Brace Up.
New York, April 10. There was more ac
tivity in the stock market this morning than
during the same hours for a long time, but
later tbe market quieted down and lost a por
tion of the early gains, but prices at the close
were materially higher than those of last even
ing. The forelgnerswere the chief factor to
day in continuing the advance, and while the
early London cables, reported handsome ad
vances over prices of last evening, the foreign!
buying orders in this market were sufficient to
open stock K par cent higher in the general
list, while Atchison, which was favorably af
fected by tbe fact that the efforts of Messrs.
Kidder, Peabody &. Co. to bring about a change
In the directory were meeting with some suc
cess, was up Ji per cent.
The feeling was generally bullish, and the
scare over the low bank reserves reported last
Saturday seemod,in view of the large pur
chases by the Secretary of the Treasury, to
have entirely passed away. Still, there was
considerable realizing by the long interests,
and after the opening spurt, while the market
maintained a firm tone, the changes in quota
tions were in but few cases for more than
slight fractions. St. Paul led the upward
movement, and was followed by Lake Erie and
Western preferred, and later by Burlington,
bnt the gains in no case were for more than
fractional amounts. Manhattan came to the
front toward noon, and made a spurt of 3 per
cent, which there is no evidence to show was
anything more than manipulation, as the rest
of the list retired slightly from the best prices
of the morning before noon.
Up to this time there had been a large vol
ume of business, and nearly two-thirds of the
entire day's business was transacted before
noon, but after that time there was a steadily
decreasing business done.and fluctuations were
confined to the smallest fractions, except in a
few specialties, among which Denver, Texas
and Fort Worth and San Francisco pre
ferred were most prominent. In tbennlisted
department, however, there were some sharp
movements, and Sugar Trusts on a very large
business advanced 4, and New Brunswick,
which is attracting somewhat more attention
than of late, , to 21.
There was some heaviness toward delivery
hour, but Atchison was tbe only stock showing
any marked animation, and the market finally
closed qniet but strong at close to the best
prices of tbe day. Colorado Coal is per centi
lower this evening, but with that exception the
entire active list Is higher. Manhattan rose 2K
Consolidated Gas IK. Ban Francisco preferred
1 Louisville and Nashville 1 per cent, and
others fractional amounts.
.Railroad bonds were Jagaln fairly active to
day, tbe sales of all issues aggregating 51,804,
000, though the only marked activity was in
the Louisville. New Albany anrT Chic4c-o eon.
.sojj), vbicb. contributed. $l74,o to the grand
total. The tone of the market was strong
throughout, though there was some weak spots
and a few marked losses sustained. The most
noted advances were St. Paul, Chicago and
Missouri River 5sr 2, to 101, and Shenandoah
Valleygeneral receipts 2, to S3. On the other
hand, Colorado Coal 6s lost 2K, at 93, and Alton
and Terre Haute dividends 3. at 40.

Though trade gives no signs of booming, a
more hopeful feeling prevails with merchants.
The old stock of fruit and vegetables is being
worked off for what it will bring. Soon "all
things will become new." Another week or
two will wind up last season's products. Fann
ers and dealers will then sum. up losses and
turn their faces to the future in the hope that
nature will not be so bountiful tbe coming sea
son as last. Butter Is in active demand. Eggs
are quiet. Next week being the windup of
Easter, the customary drop in eggsis expected
to follow, and dealers are already making
preparations for tbe decline. There is a sur
plus of New Yprk cheese and a shortage of
Ohio in this market. Prices rule about the
same for good Ohio cheese as New York.

An active trade in pine and hemlock lumber
is reported. It is too early in the seasonforthe
hard wood trade to boom. Poplar has ad
vanced in price because of its growing popu
larity for inside finish and porch columns.
Clear poplar gives as good satisfaction in these
lines as pine, and prices are much lower. Lum
ber dealers are happy over tbe bright building
prospects for the coming season, the brightest
for many years, they say. Walnut Is again
growing into popular favor, after a few years'
retirement by the fashionable world.

Tbe directors of the First National Bank

The accident will not cause over a week's de

Light snows and no heavy rains during the

over 1.000,000.000 of logs, banked and ready to
be floated to tbe mills below, are hnng np be
cause there is not enough water in the streams

alone will be able to rescue this winter's cut,
and thus keep the mills running the season
through.

The snitof F. P. Primrose, of Chicago,
formerly in the wool business in this city,
against the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany, for $23,000 damage, is in progress In the

The snitistbe outcome of an error in a dis
patch sent from this city to Primrose's agent
in Kansas, in June. 18S8. The dispatch was m
cipher, and Intended to say that they bad
purchased all the wool that was wanted. The
change of a letter made the dispatch say
"buy." The agent purchased about 500,000
pounds, of wool before the order was cor
rected. Treasury Agent Simmons and his assistants
spent several hours yesterday in the art rooms

whose smuggling operations have kept tbe cus
tom house officials so busy of late. What this
morning's search revealed Mr. Simmons re
fused to state, but that there have been Im
portant developments In the case of late is cer
tain. He says the case looks darker against
Allard it Son as the Investigation proceeds,

not within reach of the United States law.
It will be weeks before the case is f nlly investi
gated. Theodore and Jacob Hnebler. brothers, en
gaged In tbe grocery business in Chicago, were
seriously stabbed in a desperate encounter

one was In tbe room but tbe burglars. The
grocers, wbo are courageousand powerful men.

sistance, and by tbe liberal nse of knives thev
soon released themselves. They then clashed
through a small crowd that had assembled and
escaped.
