1TGHT RUN OF CATTLE, PBIGES UP.
"Poor Stockers Kot Wanted, But Good Feed
ers Are in Demand.
SHEEP STEADY AND HOGS DECLINING
Office of Ptttsbcbg Dispatch,-)
Wkdmsdat. May B, 1889. J
The run of cattle has been between 65 and
fO loads, against 92 last week and 95 the
week before. A decline of 20 to 25 loads
from the ordinary receipts never fails to
stimulate trade. This has been the exped
ience this week. There has been an advance
.all along the line, and on some choice
ibutcher stock the advance has been 25c per
.hundred, and, according to some dealers'
views,;even more. The bulk of the supplies
were from Chicago. Those from the country
were much mixed as to quality, ranging
from very common to good only. The de
mand was strongest for light butcher stock of
good quality and fat, welgbiug from LCOO to
L10 pounds. The range of prices for this
grade was J3 80 to 4 15.
A few bunches of prima cattle, weighing
from 1.200 to 1,500 pounds, brought from 54 25
to SI 6a Poor stockers had hardwork findine
Buyers at any price. Good feeder! were In de
mand at $3 CO to S3 75. For the latter class
there as a good number of buyers, and more
could have been sold at outside quotations.
A leading East Ubertv stockman, who has
spent t ho past week in Western Ohio among
stock farmers, says: "1 found cattlemen Gener
ally disposed to hold back their stock from
markets in the belief that they would after a
'while be able to get better prices. Grass and
corn are so abundant that farmers are disposed
to feed their stock a little longer, believingthat
"there is bound to be a turn upward soon. 1 am
of the opinion that these farmers see through
a glass darkly, andthat their great expectations
are doomed to disappointment. Time only will
tell which is right, but my advice to farmers
would be to accept the situation and place
cattle on the market."
All stockmen notice the absence of heavy
prime cattle from markets this season. The
competition with dressed beef has forced our
liome butchers to buy light weights. Hence the
wants ot our home trade demand a beef that
Till not go above 1,200 pounds, and SI to the
100.
There were verv few cattle at East Liberty
yards this week above 1,200 pounds, and none
that could be traced as high as 1,500 pounds in
weight The run of calves was the lightest for
a month past, and markets were decidedly bet
ter. A few bunches of extras were sold this
morning for 4Jc. A deck of common brought
S3 85.
Sheep und Lambs.
"With a larger run this week than last, prices
held up fairly T?elL Some dealers report that
prices were a shr.de better than last week.
But advices from if ew York markets were not
such as to give st jength to tho advance. Said
an old-time deal ,er: "I wish our fanners would
keep their priceless mutton at borne, and get
the best they -. for it there. So many thin
sheep are duriped on to our market that trade
is demorallz a, and good grades suffer more or
less. The t rouble has been for weeks past that
large quan titles ofa poor quality of sheep and
lambs nav B been coming to market. These are
a drag at any price. There is hardly anything
meaner conceivable in the live stock line than
a poor .jheep.
Hoes.
So ppiies continue light, but demand corre
spfAds. Fresh pork has departed from most
oT. butchers' stalls. Packers are slow to buy at
"present rates, as they claim there is no money
co them at prices. The range at Liberty to-day
was d 90 to S4 95. A few extras sold at $5 00.
tThe outside price at Chicago to-day was H SO.
'Our packers are strong in the faith that hogs
must come down and products go up.

Wheat Acllrr, Higher nnd Firm on a
Better Foreign Demand and R&In In
the Northwest Corn, Oats
and Fork Stronger.
Chicago Wheat was moderately active and
firm to-day. May was advanced 3 under a
demand from the shorts, and closed about 1X
higher than yesterday, and Jnno sympathized
to some extent, advancing lc, and closed
about c higher than yesterday. There were
reports of pretty good rains throughout the
Northwest last night and this morning, and
while, perhaps, the Northwest could stand
more rain the present fall will do some good
and in some sections relieve the fear of drouth.
Bnt the firmness which developed was due to
the rather active buyine at the seaboard, some
S8 boat loads in all being taken at New York
jesterday, and purchases to-day were increased
from 4 loads early to 14 loads later.
This would indicate that foreign buyers want
our wheat, and had a decidedly strengthening
effect upon the market There was pretty
free selling on the early advance, which caused
a reaction from top prices then reached, some
of the prominent large traders being credited
with being free sellers, but the wheat was ab
sorbed by some one, and withal a strong
undertone existed. Shorts covered rather
freely, taking fright at the action of the mar
ket, and assisted the turn in prices above 79c
for July.
Quite activo trade was reported in corn and
transactions were at higher prices. The feel
ing developed was stronger, which was at
tributed largely tothe active shipping demand,
smaller receipts than anticipated and covering
by local shorts. The market opened a shade
above closing prices of yesterday, was firm and
sold up JKc cased oft K6c, again ruled
stronger and advanced Kc, ruled steady and
closed Jc higher than yesterday.
Oats were fairly active, stronger and higher.
The decline noted yesterday being more than
regained as prices advanced Hc and the ap
preciation was well maintained to the close.
The strength was attributable to the advance
in corn and wheat, continued dry weather in
this vicinity and a better demand from the
shorts, who sold yesterday on prospects of rain.
Specnlativo trading was moderately active in
mess pork and the feeling was stronger. Early
the feeling was firm and prices were advanced
5'Xc. Later a weaker feeling was developed
and prices receded 1012c. At the decline
the demand improved nd prices wero ad
vanced 20c About the middle of the session a
decline pf 1012c was again submitted, but
the close market was quite strong and prices
suddenly advanced 2530c and closed rather
steady.
A comparatively light trade was reported in
lard and the market was stronger. Prices were
advanced 710c, and the market closed
steady.
Qnite a good trade was reported in short rib
sides. Prices were advanced 2Koc, and mod
erately well supported to the close.

THE
THE PIONEER BAM.
A Big Conns for a Charter Eefused by
the State Legislature.
HOW THE DimCULTI WAS MET.
Financiering Prosecuted Under Discourag
ing Ciscumstances.
PLUCK AND BRAINS ASE REWARDED
The Bank of Pittsburg, the oldest institu
tion of the kind in the city, is well known
in financial circles throughout the length
and breadth of the country. Its history has
been written so often as to be familiar to
almost every citizen, bnt now and then
something new in connection with it is
found in old documents or personal reminis
cences which imparts a fresh Interest to the
story.
The Bank of Pittsburg had its conception In
1610. In that year of commercial gloom and
uncertainty, the second of President Madison's
administration, Napoleon had issued a decree
that all American vessels and cargoes arriving
in any of the ports of France or countries occu
pied by French troops must be seized and con
demned. This was revoked soon after by the
President's proclamation. But the feeling of
indignation, especially against England, and
the embargo passed during President Jeffer
son's administration, was followed by a procla
mation of President Madison interdicting
commercial intercourse with Great Britain.
At this critical peiiod the manufacturers
of Pittsburg, desiring to establish a
bank to afford them financial facilities, which
we. re much needed, offered tothe Legislature
of the State a large bonus as a compensation
for the privilege of a charter. An organiza
tion was formed with this object In view, com
posed of the following named persons: Will
lam Wilkins, President, and Abraham Kirk
patnek, William McCandless, John Darragh,
James Martin, Thomas Cromwell, William
Woods, Nicholas Cunningham, Ephralm Pent
land, Robert Simpson, George Sutton, Henry
Fulton, Joseph McClurg, Robert Spencer,
Francis B. Holmes, John Scull, Thomas
Bracken, William Hays, James Morrison,
James Riddle and Jeremiah Barker, directors.
They bad prepared the form of a bank charter
with $1,000,000 capital, and offered to transfer to
the State 810,000 of tho capital stock, or $20,000
to each of the two proposed bridge.) across the
Allegheny and Monongahela rivers, and also
$20,000 toward turnpiking the great State road;
also $45,000 for such public improvements as
the Legislature should approve. The proposal
was declined, on the ground that it would be
impossible to raise snch an amount of capital
in the depressed condition of the business in
terests of the city.
As an alternative the organization resolved
to carry on the business of banking without the
aid of the State, and formed an individual lia
bility partnership under the name of "The
PittsbnrgManufacturingCompany." This was
in 1812, the year when war was declared against
Great Britain. The association was offloered
by William Wilkins, President; Alexander
Johnston, Jr., Chief Clerk, and George An
shutz, James Morrison, John Darrah, C. Cowan,
George Sutton, Thomas Cromwell and James
Riddle, directors. The association was emi
nently successful, being of great benefit to the
businessmen of the city. Besides banklngit did
a little In Insurance. On July 23, 1812, the first
policy was issued to protect a new mansion
erected by William Wilkins on the site now oc
cupied by the Monongahela House.
In 1S14 another and successful effort was
made to obtain a chatter for the original pro
ject, "The Bank of Pittsburg." It passed the
Legislature and was signed by GovernorBimon
Snyder. The Pittsburg Manufacturing Com
pany was closed up and its books, means and
muniments transferred to the Bank of Pitts
burg, formerly the nucleus of its new capital
and business. Other stockholders were soon
added. The capital was nominally $500,000, but
owing to the scarcity of money in consequence
of the war, and the commercial revulsion
which followed it in 1820, and long after, the
whole of the capital was -not called in until
1834, when John Harper became an officer of
the institution. He has been connected with
the bank as cashier and president ever since.
Although nearly 80 years old, he is bail and
hearty, visiting the bank every day and pre
siding at the directors' meetings.
Not one bank officer or director who was in
the Bank of Pittsburg or in the Branch Bank
of the United States when Mr. Harper entered
office is alive to-day. George Shiras, Sr., is the
last of the stockholders whose names were en
rolled on the dividend book of 1832. During the
77 years of its existence the bank has never
failed to pay a semi-annual dividend. An at
tempt was made about ISfll to reorganize the
institution under the national banking law, but
it failed through the opposition of the female
stockholders, who were, and still are, largely
in the majority.
ON A BETTER FOOTING.
Pittsburg nnd Western Preferred Btakes n
BIk Jorap Philadelphia Gas Stronger.
The feature of the local stock market yester
day was the strength shown by Pittsburg and
Western Railroad preferred stock. It advanced
53 50 a share here and $4 in New York. This
was;rightly attributed to the improved condi
tion of the road and consequently increased
earnings. It was sparingly off ered at the ad
vance and closed strong. Philadelphia Gas
was higher and active as the result of a nat
ural reaction from the depression under which
it had been laboringfor several days. The first
sale of it was at 36 and the last at 8 It
closed firm at the top price.
Switch and Signal was lower, weak and neg
lected. The Tractions were practically lifeless,
the only movement in them being a sale of 34
shares of Central at 30. Electric was surpris
ingly weak, owing, it was said,, to the uncer
tainties attending the outcome of the pending
litigation. The Mining stocks were scarcely
thought of. The total sales amounted to 649
shares. Bids, offers and sales are appended:

LOSSES RECOVERED.
Tho Bulls Slake a Bash and Elevate the
Stock Market Nearly Everything
Higher Pittsbnrs and West
era Preferred Leads
the Advance.
NrwY0EK,May8. The stock market to
day was less active but stronger than it was
yesterday, and, as a rule, all the losses were re
covered, and in some cases fractions in addi
tion. The opening this morning was again
feverish and irregular, the unsettled feeling of
yesterday not disappearing until well into the
forenoon, when the attitude of the traders be
came more pronounced upon the bull side. The
majority of the list was xrom to per cent
liigher than last evening's quotations, but the
market was extremely narrow, and outside of
St. Paul, which.early took the lead of the list,
the transactions were almost entirely prof es
sional and the fluctuations were confined to
the smallest limits. There was considerable
pressure especially upon the coal shares, and
in Reading the only real weakness was shown,
though the loss was to per cent, which was
the extreme range of the stock for the day,
the concessions in the early trading bringing in
buyers who soon brought about a decided
change in the temper of the speculation.
Atchison assumed, a secondary position ia the
market after tho first hour, and St. Paul bo
came the great feature of the day, the buying
of that stock being specially gooa and it was
said to be for the account of a large banking
house who are seeking to control the election
and the advance In the stock was well main
tained until the close. Good foreign buying of
Lako Shore brought it to the front in the after
noon, but the other Vanderbilts were still dnll
and immovable without features of any kind.
Among the specialties there were a few very
wide movements, most prominent being the
sudden rise of 1 percent in Pittsburg and
Western preferred, most of which was retained
at the close. Pullman after a small decline
rose sharply and Chicago gas again crossed 60
and closed above that figure. Toward 2 o'clock
there was the usual realizing movement, bat
the concessions outside of Atchison and the
specialties were insignificant and the market
recovered its tone in the last hour, closing
quiet and steady to firm at but little under the
best prices of the day. Pittsburg and Western
preferred closed with a gain of 4 per cent,
Chicago Gas 1, Pullman L and St. Paul ,
but the other changes are for small fractions
only.
Railroad bonds were more quiet and the tone
of the dealings underwent a change for the
worse, for the first time in many days, the final
changes showing a majority of losses for the
day. The total transactions foot up $l,86L00O,
of which $152,000 were in the Texas Pacific
second incomes. The St. Louis, Arkansas and
Texas issues wero the weakest Bpot in the list
upon tho trouble over the payment of the cou
pons on the first mortgage bonds. The weak
ness was not confined to those securities, how
ever, but extended to all portions of the list,
and among the most marked losses were. St,
Louis. Arkansas and Texas firsts, 8, at 88; the
seconds, 3, at 27, and others fractions.

INVOLVING MILLIONS.
Arguments Beaton in That Great Patent
Salt Did Westing-house Infringe? Evi
dence on Multiple Wires.
The argument in the case of the Edison
Electric Light Company against the West-inghouse-Church-Kerr
Company to restrain
them from the alleged infringement on a
patent was taken up before Judge McKen
nan yesterday. Messrs. Bfchard N. Dyer,
Esq., and Edward H. Eodgers, Esq., of
New York, represent the Edison Company and
Messrs. Bakewell 4 Kerr the Westinghouse
Company.
Mr. Dyer opened the case and' argued for
nearly five hours, producing many drawings to
illustrate his points, showing an alleged in
fringement on the Edison patent.
The case is one involving the use of what is
known as the multiple wire system of electrical
distribution. The suit was originally brought
in New Jersey, and is to restrain the Westing
house Company from nsing tho, system in any
part of the United States.
The defendants claim that there is no in
fringement whatever, and show by a number of
patents that the system is an old one. Tboro
are now two patents, and each party is limited
to the specific claims of their patents. The de
fendants also claim that their patent is entire
ly of different construction from that of the
plaintiffs. The argument will not be finished
for a conple of days.

In the case of Joel Regelman, of Mercer
county, who was put on trial in the United
States District Court yesterday, for complicity
with James Allen for manufacturing coun
terfeit money, some funny things were devel
oped. The attorney for the defense set un the
plea that Begelman was a man of unsound
mind, who was childlike in his manner, and
could easily be led into doing right or wrong,
on the representation of others.
On this point witnesses were examined, and
their testimony went to show that the father of
the prisoner left him a well-stocked and an ex
cellent farm of 60 acres, all of which has been
Squandered in a most foolish manner. At one
time a traveler came along who convinced
Begelman that be was in every way qualified
to become a first-class dentist, and. on promise
to make him one, secured $200.
One week's work convinced the prisoner and
his tntor that dentistry was not his forte, so he
sold the prisoner a patent for "extinguishing
files," for which he paid about $200, and the fly
extinguisher proved to be absolutely worthless.
Another party sold him a patent washing ma
chine that was nothing more than a few boards
nailed together, and of no more value than a
scrubbing brush.
It was also shown that tho prisoner was the
victim of all kinds of sharpers, who fleeced
him of his money, and he is now pennlless,with
a lame family dependent upon him for support.
The jury was only out five minutes and re
turned a verdict of acquittal.

Lumber.
Tho hard wood which now has the run is oak.
A leading dealer said to-day: "Ninety per
cent of all the hard wood we are selling now is
oak. A few years ago walnut had the lead.
Now the fashion runs to oak and cherry, both
for furniture and inside finish." YeUow-pine
is in good demand at a shade better prices than
at any time this season. There is no let-up to
the demand for poplar. All signs point to the
fact that this is to be one of the best seasons on
record in lumber lines so far as Pittsburg's
trade is concerned.

the First Baptist Church at Banksville.Pa., has ft
been a confirmed Invalid since 1S8L For the
past eight years he has been afflicted with
rheumatism more or less of the time, and for
the past three years his sufferings have been so
terrible that life had become- a burden to him.
He complained of tearing, aching pain all -throngh
his body. His stomach became the
seat of horrible neuralgic pains, which ex
tended through to his hack and radiated from
there to his shoulder blades. The pain came
on in paroxysms, which increased in violence
until his body was bent doable. The pain was
usually aggravated alter eating and wo.nId
continue unabated until every particle of food
passed out of his stomach. As soon as the
stomach became empty he complained of a
faint, all gone feeling In it. His bowels
were obstinately constipated, and wero,
only moved by taking cathartics. He suffered '
from an aching, tearing pain In the small of
the back, palpitation of the heart and sharp
stitching pain In his side. Mr. Evans had sol
f ered so long without finding relief that he
had riven up all hopes of recovery, and when
we consider his terrible condition we do not
wonder that he had little if any faith that Dr.
Smith would benefit his condition. Remem
ber that he had suffered eight years with rheu
matism, which was associated with dyspepsia,
constipation and neuralgia of the stomach in
an aggravated form. Spasms of pain in bis
stomach and bowels would seize him and bend
his body double. These horrible pains would
continue without intermission until his body
was bathed in profuse perspiration and until ho
would faint from exhaustion. In this pitiaMa
condition be applied to Dr. Smith, the mag
netic physician, at No. 602 Penn ave. After
three magnetic treatments in connection with ,
a little medicine, Mr. Evans could eat without
distress, sleep well, and go about from day to
day with never a sense of weariness or dis
tress. Rev. Mr. Evans stated In Dr. Smith's
office last Saturday that when he applied to
Dr. Smith that language was Inadequate to ex
press the horrible .torture he was undergoing.
He says that Dr. Smith's treatment gave him
the first relief from suffering that he has bad
during his entire illness. Mr. Evans maybe
referred to- at his present residence. No. 28
Eighth street, Beltzhoover, Pa., and will cheer
fully vouch for the truthfulness of this state
ment. Dr. Smith is permanently located at 502
Penn ave.. and consults free from 9 A. X. until
7 P. 31. He cures after all other means fail.
In the treatment of piles, fistnlx. constipation,
fissures, catarrh of the bladder, stone in the
bladder and all diseases of women. Dr. Smith
stands without a rival, and will permanently
cure every case he undertakes. Ail letters of
Inquiry must contain two stamps. If you or
any of yonr friends are sick, do not give up in
despair until you see Dr. Smith.
