Jane 10. 1SS9. J " Markets were not at all spirited, but cat tle were a full Kc higher than a week ago. A Diamond market butcher said: "I paid about 20e per cwt more for beeves this week than last, and a Bearer Falls butcher paid Be for some prime cattle which is the high est paid this year. The quality ot cattle received this week was good. There were a few primes weighing as high as 1,600. But tliis class of cattle is no longer in demand in our markets. The steer wanted here must not go much. above 1,200 .pounds or ic in price. Supplies ot cattle were large. A dealer in Western stock said: "We will do well if we pet our own hack this week. We had to pay about as much at Chicago as butchers here are willing to pay, and .hence will have to work Tor glory instead of boodle this week. One thing is sure that margins of profit are almost wiped out from present appearances."

The week opens with firmer ma rkets. The output of flour at Minneapolis last week was 10.000 barrels less than the previous week. "While spot orders and export demand for bakers flour have increased at that center the past week, prices are off abont 10c per barrel. Advices from London, as reported by the Min neapolis Miller correspondent, are that crop prospects very greatly improved during the month of May. From present outlook the harvests will be gathered from two to three weeks ctrllertban last year in the Old World. The London correspondent attempts to bear thil statement by suggesting that crops are growing too fast, and warns the reader not to rel v too much on favorable crop prospects. At this stage prospects were never better for abundant harvests the world over, and this on topot the downward drift for months past promises cheap food for the year to come. The speculators who have tried to bnll wheat and flour the past six months have verily found vev hard roads to travel. Nature has been en tirely too bountif ol in her ideas for the schemes of those who have attempted to advance the price ot breadstuffs. LITE STOCK MARKETS.

The more de ferred futures closed K5c lower. June ad vanced lc, and closed Jc higher than Satur day. ; The advancing tendency early was attributed to the weather, whiclwas again cloudy and rainy. The weather " bulletin showed rain throughout the West and Southwest, andthi induced the covering of shorts as well as buy? inc from other sources. But private advices denoted clearing weather. The weather at present in the Southwesttorms quite an im portant item, as harvesting is In progress. The visible supply was abont what was generally expected, though less than somo parties had calculated upon. Quite an active trade was witnessed In com during the earlvpart of the session, afler'which amore quiet feeling prevailed. A firmer feel ing was developed and transactions were at higher prices. The better tone was attributed to the wet weather and smaller arrivals. The market opened at Saturday's closing prices, was firm, and advanced X eased off K jge, became quiet, closing a shade higher than Saturday. Oats are moderately -active, stronger and prices advanced iie early in the .session on fair pnrchases by snorts, who became scared at tho advance In corn and reports of bad weath er. Later, quietness prevailed and prices re ceded slightly, and last sales were at almost the same as on Saturday. Comparatively light trade was reported in the market for hog products. Outside parties forwarded very few orders and local specula tors were indifferent about trading to any ex tent' Changes in prices were slight, and the balk of the. business was in evening up small trade.

The Taralyzea Hustlers Recovering and Getting Down to Work LUCK OP AN IKSURAHCE COMPANY. lithe Seal Estate Exchange Project Defunct or Merely Sleeping? A FOMEE P1TTSBDRG MAN IN CL0YER There was a' more buoyant feeling in-,bus-iness circles yesterday than since the dis tressing occurrence i.n the Conemaugh Val ley. Bankers reported- rhore applications for loans, stocks were more jctive and 'Oil was stronger. In general trade there was a liberal movement. Stocks in nearly all lines have been materially reduced, in con sequence of donations arfd sales for the ben efit of the sufferers. Business people are hope ful of a good trade therest of the summer, and of an unusually busy season next fall as a result of the large' expenditures necessary to restore the devastated district and succor the unfortunates. W.P. Wboldridge, or the Mutual Life Insur ance Company, of New York,, returned from Johnstown yesterday, whero he had been to look after the interests ol his company. In a, brief Interview he said: "We are carrying about $500,000 in policies there; and so far as I have been able to ascertain our losses are prac tically nothing, nearly all ourpatrons in the dis trict having, with remarkable good fortune, es caped with their lives. We may. however, dis cover additional losses later on. If the calamity had happened at night there would have been comparatively few escapes,, and our losses would have been very heavy. I understand that some of the other local companies lose con siderable, but how much I do not know. It is safe to say that all, losses will be promptly paid." George Mason, formerly of Wllkinshurg, now of Tacoma, W. T has written to a friend at his.tormer home as fallows: '-Business in lands and houses Is booming here. Some choice lots on the main street have brought 81,000 a front foot. Houses are going up In every direction many of them large and costly. The business houses will favorably compare with those of any other city in the West All real estate transactions are conducted through the Ex change, which works admirably. They were talking-about'a Real Estate Exchange in Pitts burg when I left there. Has it been estab lished! If not it should be without delay. It is a great advantage to all dealers in realty. This city, In my opinion, is destined to become one of the most flourishing In the Northwest There are several Pittsburg men herei and con siderable Pittsburg capital has been invested in various local enterprises." Twenty-two mortgages were placed on record yesterday representing 833,900. The largest were: 53,000, S4,000,.S900, 82,600 and SLOOO-all home money. A real estate dealer said: "We have done a big business in mortgages this year larger than ever beforeln the same time. How do I account for HT Well, capitalists seem to have found out thatreal estate is a good and safe investment. That is one reason. Another 13 the abundance and cheapness of money. I know of several instances where money borrowed at 6 or 5K per cent and in- kvested in unimproved lots has returned a profit of 15 or 20.. This was not Inflation, but legiti mate expansion and enhancement caused by the rapid increase of population. People must have homes." Real Estate Exchanges have proved sohenefi clal wherever they have been introduced that the neglect to establish one in Pittsburg is al most ucaccoyntable. From the talk among real estate men last winter and in the early spring it was conjectured that this omission would soon be repaired, but months have passed and the realization seems as far off as ever. Why this apathy? It cannot be because a majority of- the dealers are opposed to the scheme, for the reverse is known to be the case. Nearly all admit th 3 necessity of an exchange to properly handlo the rapidly growing busi ness. The true reason, probably, is' tho lack of efficient leadership to push the project He who will do this will deserve, and will receive, the applause of his fellow-citizens. It is too important a matter to be allowed to die for want of nourishment The Southern Lumberman says: "A friend In Pittsburg complains that cypress shingles shrank so as to cause leaks, and he had to re new bis roof with pino shingles. The fault was .most probably in the workman, and not the shingles.. A shingle is a piece of wood 16 to 20 inches in length, from 516 to of an inch thick at one end, and from H to 1-32 at the other, and 4 inches in width. But there are dimension shingles, and random width shingles. A.dimen slon shingle means that all the pieces in the lot are the same width, ana five inches is the favor ite width, and each piece is a shingle and a fourth that is, four pieces count five shingles. Random width run all the way from, three inches up to a foot in width. Some carpenters call a foot wide piece a shingle, but it is three shingles in one piece A-man' that will nail a random width over eight inches on the top of a house ought to quit the carpenter's trade, and get a place in a baker's shop. Then If he spoils a job he can eat It" IMPE0TEMENT IN STOCKS.. ( Fair Business for Monday nod a Better Feclins All Round. There was an improvement in stock dealing yesterday, and the feeling was .mere bullish than for some time.

Stocks Open Henvy Under Manipulations of the Professionals, But Brace Up Later On and Close at Top Prices Bonds Dull. New Yoke, Jane 10. The stock market to ofay seemed given over entirely to the trading element at the opening, and tho dealings showed a'heavy tone with Very little feature, while the trading was confined to a few of the leading shares. Later, however, under the stimulus of good buying in the Vanderbilts. Jersey Central and the trusts, the tone of the market underwent a completo change and activity and decided strength marked the remainder of the dealings exccDt in the last hour. Realizations then sagged the list off and the final figures are fractionally lower than the best prices, but Inmost cases materially higher than the final nrlce of Satnrdav. The advices Lfrom Chicago bore the usual pessimistic tinge tms morning, anu me. opening ngures were, generally from to per cent lower than Saturday night's prices, and while the general list was dull and entirely -uninteresting, the Grangers, especially St Paul, Atch inson and Burlington, wero fairly active and scored further declines extending to K per cent The trusts were quiet though sugar was strong. Chicago Gas was the only" strong stock on the regular list Even in tbls stock, however, the dullness was most pronounced toward noon, and the market became stagnant and all feature disapDeared from the dealings. After noon the buving of the Vanderbilts. stimulated probably by the approach of the semi-annual dividend period, began, and with Lake Shore in the van, decided gains were made all over the list and the upward move ment was accompanied by positive activity. The growing scarcity of anthracite coal re ported, with the improvement in the steel rail trade, gave an impetus to the coal shares at the same time and Jersey Central was carried higher than it was at any. previous time, while there was renewed talk of, a dividend on the property. The entire list shared in the improvement and though the stories of reductions . in rates in the West by the Burlington and Northern were pub lished at the time the effect was Hot seen, as the Grangers all held the advances made. To ward delivery hour there were realizations by the traders upon the profits accrued during the day and almost everything moved off slightly, but the close was quiet and fairly steady at something better than the opening figures; Thp.rn were no declines ot moment, hut Jersev Central rose 2, .Delaware and Hudson , and J jilg r our x per veuu Except for the Rock Island fives, which fur nished $123,000, and tbe,Chesapeake and Ohio fives, which contributed $140,000 to the day's total of $1,244,000, the rail road bond market was,, dull and without special feature to-day, thowth there was a firm to strong tone to. the dealings, and tho losses nrp fpw in number.

IS HE HELD ILLEGALLY? ! An Interesting and Singular Point Itniicd in tho Case of a Penitentiary Convict. Habeas corpus proceedings will he com menced in the local courts this week by Attor ney W. C. Stlllwagen to secure the release of a prisoner fromthe Riverside Penitentiary. The cage-is an Interesting ono and Involves a queer point In 1834 John Weisenfcerg was arrested in McKean county on a charge of burglary. He was tried and convicted and on JulyS sen tenced to five years in the penitentiary. The Sheriff of McKean county took Weisenberg In eharge and started with him for Riverside Penitentiary. He reached as far as Bennett station, on the West Penn Railroad, when Weisenberg Jumped from the train and suc ceeded in making his escape. Hewaspnrsued, but for some time to no avail. The sheriff from whom be escaped, however, did not give up the cbase,'but tracked him closely. Finally he located hiaman in West Virginia, and ten months from the day of the escape came up with him in a ravine in the Cumberland Mount ains. He called on Weisenberg to surrender, but the latter started to run. A second comni.-tid to halt bad no effect and the Sheriff fired., The bullet struck Weisenberg In the back and brought htm to the ground, lie was taken to' the nearest town and lodged in a hospital. For a long time he lingered, and no hopes were en tertained of his recovery. Thejrcind was a similar one to that which cause4H3 death of President Garfield, audit was thought that there wero no chances for him. Finally, how ever, he grew better and was brought to the nenltentiarv. " Hq was an obedient prisoner, it is claimed, ) and on tne otn 01 last juarcn ne was caneo into the Warden's office. He was informed that bis conduct while in the prison had been such as to warrant tho regular commutation, but that his escaping from the officer had precluded him rrbm getting it; further that though his time would have expired on July, 6, 1889, he would have to serve ten months longer to make up for the tinte he was free. Friends of Weisen-, hergMearning of his predicament sought the services of Mr. Stlllwagen. Thejatter sttrted for the penitentiary to interview his client He applied to Mr. George A. Kelly, of the Prison Board, for a pass and was peremptorily refused. Next be saw Inspector Reed, and obtained the pass. When he presented the pass at the prison he was informed by Deputy Warden McKain that no one was to be allowed to see Weisen berg, per order of Mr. Kelly. This fact was telephoned to Mr. Reed, who revoked his pass. Knreral davs passed, bnt at last Mr. Stillwagen got to see his client through the intervention r n,, rThavlAft Tlnhiftnn- nf thn TrffHsla.tnrA- ' As a result the habeas corpus proceedings will be instituted. It is claimed that to hold Weisenberg after the expiration of his commitment would be illegal. To have been enabled to do so an Information for escape should have been made and the usual sentence ot court imposed to the' effect that the prisoner serve extra the length of time which be had been free. Such was not done in Wel3eberg's case on account of the thought that he would die. Atter he had re covered it was neglected until it was too late, by reason of the statute of limitation. For tins reason, Mr. Stlllwagen holds, the attempt was made to prevent him from seeing Weis enberg. It was decided to hold Weisenberg, legally or illegally, as a menace to the other convicts, and it was desired to avoid legal in tervention.

The Prince and Princess of Wale3 visited the Paris Exposition yesterday, and ascended the Eiffel tower. Excommunicated Priest Kolasinski, of Detroit dedicated anew chnrch for the ex clusive use of his personal followers Sunday. An engine and car westbound wentthrongh .the bridge west of Petersburg. Pa Sunday night Engineer Port and Fireman Hoffright were killed. Both were residents of Hunting ton. A misplaced switch caused the accident Patrick Curloy, Reese Lloyd and Richard Williams, three 'miners in the employ of the Lehigh and Wllkesbane Coal Company, were instantly killed aVnoon yesterday In the Not tingham mine, at Plymouth, by a fall of coal and rock. The men were engaged in eating tbeir dinner at the time the accident took place. Matthew Davis, another miner, who went to their assistance, was also fatally injured. The Victims were all married, Thursday night two negro desperadoes went to a cabin near the Turkey Run coal mines, in McDowelLcounty,West Virginia, and covering the inmates, about a dozen Hun garian miners, with revolvers, demanded their wage. One .of the Hungarians drew a revolver from beneath his pillow, and was shot three times, dying in a short time. tThe others fled, and the house was looted by the negroes, who escaped. Twoar iest3 bave been made on suspicion. The Boulanglst members of the Chamber of Deputies now in Paris have entered a pro test against the action of the authorities of Angouleme in prohibiting the Boulanglst meet ing which was to have been held there Sunday, and in arresting those who resisted their action They accuse tbe Government of an endeavor to initiate a revolution, and hold tbe Ministers responsible for the Interference of the An gouleme authorities. The statement to be issued by General Boulanger in reference to the letters seized by the Paris police in the residence of two Boulanglst leaders will de clare that their contents are unimportant HE WAS TIRED OF LIFE.

Thirty-third ward, and had a wife and eight children, committed suicide at 3:30 o'clock: yesterday afternoon, drowning himself in the Monongahela opposite the car penter shops of the Pittsburg and Lake Erie Railway.

The men threw a rope to him, but he made no apparent effort to catch it Captain Carroll and James Siinson secured the body, bnt life was extinct. It had been noted that Davis was somewhat despondent but not sufficiently so as to attract special attention. A Coal Sbed Fire. The alarm of fire from box 38 about 920 o'clock last evening, was caused by a small blaze in a coal shed in the rear of Cawley &. Callahan's grocery store, corner of Chestnut and Vickroy streets.
