THE PITTSBUEG DISPATCH, SATUPJDAT, JUNE 15, 1889.
I
NO GENERAL CHARGE.
The Condition of Trade is More Fa
Torable, but Still Quiet,
IROK IS A SHADE MORE STEADY.
The Southern Product Continues to be an
Element of Anxiety.
EESULTS OP THE FLOOD DISASTERS
rsracux. txlzobax to thx Dispatch.!
New Tokk, June 14. Special telegrams
to Bradstreet's continue to report only a
moderately favorable condition of trade.
The increased activity at Philadelphia, not
ably in lumber and iron and in general
lines, is due to the reopening of rail com
munication, -which -was interrupted by
floods in Pennsylvania. There is also some
improvement in demand for and shipment
of staples at St. Louis, Chicago, Kansas
City, Galveston, Des Homes and Memphis,
and at Louisville and Cincinnati business
is reported fair. Our low preliminary esti
mate of 545,000,000 loss of property by the
floods in four States is more likely to be re
duced than otherwise. The wheat crop
propects have not improved since June 1,
but the outlook for cotton is rather better
since the Louisiana drouth has been broken.
At Baltimore, New York and Boston
trade is quiet with country produce, naval
stores and furniture relatively most active.
Numerous inquiries have induced Brad
street's to examine the "Anti-Trust" legis
lation of Missouri, Kansas and Texas, and
it is found that such legislation is not, as
has been widely and erroneously published,
directed against mercantile contracts gen
erally, but is aimed against contracts or
combinations designed to limit or control
production or prices.
Under the influence of renewed specu
lative interest the Kevr York stock market
is active and tends higher, attention Liiug
rapidly transferred from one stock to an
other. Bonds are very strong under in
creasing investment demands. Money at
New York continues easv in spite of large
gold shipments, the amount of specie en
gaged to-day aggregating 53,975,000. Call
loans 22 "per cent. Foreign exchange to
continental Europe is very firm, though
sterling is easier, demand sterling being
quoted 488489.
THE IBON SITUATION.
Pig iron is generally stronger, particularly
in Pennsylvania and Ohio. Sonthem irons
are not being pushed. There is a growing
confidence in both the iron and steel trades.
About 40,000 tons ot steel rails have been
placed in Western and Eastern markets.
The additional allotment, 200,000 tons, will
cover requirements for the next six weeks.
The over-sold condition of British rail mills
may shift some Canadian and Mexican
orders to American markets on a basis of
,$27 or $27 50 at mill.
While sugar prices continue to advance,
having gained J7-16c this week on
smaller visible stocks, unfavorable crop re
ports, firmer cables and pronounced activity
lor refined, interest now centers on what we
are to receive and where it is to come from.
Refinere' stocks are greatly depleted, and
the outlook is for a demand for unusually
large supplies, with a dearth of them ro
sight Sugar Trust certificates have ad
vanced from 585 50 in March to $110, with
higher figures in prospect. Large coffee
crop reports and light distributive and
speculative demand agtfin depressed the
staple, the decline being about lc
The Government cereafxrop report tended
to depress prices, being interpreted as very
favorable, but later weather and crop re
ports, backed by speculative influence?,
served to advance wheat on the week 1?
2c. Indian corn has been lower after an
advance pn light deliveries, but shows a
gain of s. Eye is up c on bet
ter export demand. All Australian
wheat exports have ceased, supplies on hand
being needed at home.
SHIPPING WHEAT.
San Francisco wires that inquiries for
wheat are received from Montevideo, that
60,000 bushels have been shipped to Bio Ja
neiro, and that the total of wheat stocks in
California June 1 was only 3,487,383 bush
els, indicating that only 600,000 bushels
will be carried over July L Australia has
been drawing wheat from New Zealand and
India as well as California. Hog products
are depressed on extraordinarily heavy re
ceipts of hogs at prominent interior markets.
Drygoods are very quiet, but generally
strong in price at New York Aid Boston..
Cotton goods stocks are well under control,
and holders are confident. Several grades
of bleached goods have been advanced.
Print cloths are in moderate sale, firm at
New York, bnt rather easier at Boston.
Woolen good; in moderate demand, but in
fairly liberal movement, notably underwear
and hosiery, prices well held. Flannel
manufacturers ask advance on present
values, and these goods are in satisfactory
movement Foreign goods are rather
duller than usual. Baw wool is firm in
price, but active only in the country.
Manufacturers' stocks are light. An up
ward tendency in prices is noted. Baw
cotton is good, domestic and export demand
at l-16c decline. Speculation is excessively
dull. Crop prospects have improved.
K i Business failures reported to Bradstreet's
number 195 in the United States this week
against 201 last week and 212 this week
last year. Canada bad 20 this week against
25 last week. The total of failures in the
United States, January 1 to date, 5,440
against 4,871 in 18S8.
DUJf'S WEEKLT BEVIEW.
B, G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of
trade says: The better feeling which was
observed a week ago in the iron and steel
and woolen industries still continues, and
improvement is now felt in prices as well
as in magnitude of transactions. Mean
while exports of merchandise increase, and
nevertheless gold goes abroad in large
amounts, about $3,500,000 having been or
dered to-day.
The news as to railroad properties is more
favorable. A proposition to settle the
Northwestern controversy on the basis of an
allowance of 60 per cent of through freight
to the Lake lines is expected to be accepted.
Other difficulties are in more satislactory
shape, and earnings continue in excess of
last year's. The general average of prices
has again advanced a little.
Reports from other cities indicate im
provement in trade at Cleveland ami Pitts
burg, and in the wool and groceries trades
at Philadelphia, but are otherwise but little
changed. Collections show no improve
ment on the whole. Especial activity in
leather has resulted from the floods in
regions where many tanneries are located,
Hud crop leather has advanced fully 2 cents
since June 1. The glass trade of Pittsburg
is fair. For anthracite coal there is a better
demand, with reduced output.
SOrrXHEKN IEON BALES.
The sales ' of Southern iron continue
large, and prices of pi; at Pittsburg are
rather lower, bnt the Thomas Iron Company
has advanced its quotations to 517 for No. 1.
Better prices are realized for structural and
plate iron, and at a tenth ot a cent better
for bar iron, wnue me larger demand ipr
steel rails has so stiffened the prices that
528 is now quoted. Part of the demand re
salting irom the necessity of rebuilding
works, bridges and roads destroyed by the
flood is but temporary, and yet the con
sumption otherwise must be on a scale
hardly ever surpassed, since prices stiffen
with raw iron coming into market at the
rate of more than 7,000,000 tons yearly.
Breadstuff's are stronger. Less favorable
crop reports are the pretext; probably ex
cessive speculative sales are the cause.
Coffee has receded a quarter. Porkpro
. dncts and hogs are lower, but oil has ad
vanced li cents. The rise in new sugar
continues, 41 cents per 100 pounds for the
week, and refined has been marked up to
9yi cents for granulated. No disturbance
results in the money market here lrom the
heavy exports of gold, in part because dur
ing the past week the Treasury has paid out
23.600.000 more than it has taken in.
Business" failures number 250, u com-J
pared with a total of 225 last week and 215
the week previous. For the corresponding
week ol last year the figures were 232.
MUST HATE METERS.
The Philadelphia Company Will Not Furnish
Gni by Contract Any Longer.
The Philadelphia Company has determined
to put meters In the houses of every private
consumer, and there Is a'great deal of indigna
tion in consequence. Some of the consumers
made contracts which they thought would ran
for a year, bnt after a caret ul perusal of it dis
covered that it could be annulled by either
partv by curing 30 days' notice.
With a view to abolishing the present system
and forcing consumers to use meters the fol
lowing announcement has been made by the
Philadelphia Company and 30 days' notice is
given:
The Philadelphia Company tales pleasure in an
nouncing to lta patrons that, after a long series of
costly experiments. It is now prepared to furnish
natural ins to domestic consumers by meter: ac
knowledged to;be the fairest, safest and most
economical method of buying and selling this
product.
Owing to the many kinds and sizes of honses
supplied, and to the constantlT changing condi
tion! under which the gas Is used, and of which it
Is impossible to take account, it has long been
evident that no plan other than the exact meas
urement of the gas actually consumed could
be devised which would be entirely equitable
and satisfactory. Several crave difficulties, how
ever, stood In the way or its earlier adoption
The higher presiure at which natural as 1"
used, ai compared with illuminating gas, and the
greater volume required per minute for fuel pur
poses, as well as the different nature of the gas It
self, demanded a meter not only unquestionable in
point of accuracy, but also of very substantial
construction and, consequently, oi greater cost
than any heretofore In use. The meter now belnc
manufactured expressly for the Philadelphia
Company, Is the result of extended experiment,
and successfully solves all the problems presented.
It Is constructed of the best material, for a press
ure far beyond what It can possibly be called upon
to resist, and each meter will be tested by and oer
the official stamp of the City .Meter Inspector.
An official of the company, in speaking of the
matter yesterday, said: "We do not intend to
compel any person to use a meter, but will not
fnrnish gas to consumers who will not allow
us to put one In. It will be cheaper for the
consumer and will save us about 50 per cent in
gas, but our revenue will be considerably less,
as we are compelled to pay $25 or $30 for each
meter put in. One man who has bad a meter
put in his bouse came to us to-day and said he
had saved 4 40 during the past month in his
gas bill by nslng a meter. When the people
understand this thoroughly I do not believe
there -n ill beany objection to the meter sys
tem." '
Workmen Arrested for Trespass.
Four men who were building an abutment
for abridge for the Pittsburg and Western
Railroad at Millvale, were arrested by 'Bqnlre
Young's constable on a charge of trespass pre
ferred by Mr. Reed, who claimed they were
utilizing his property. The men had a partial
bearing before 'Squire Young yesterday. Noth
ing was settled and the hearing will be con
tinued to-day

BILE P0ISQNED BLOOD.
Nearly every one is occasionally troubled
with bilious attacks, more especially in the
spring months, after tbe svstem has been sur
feited with hearty food during the winter. The
action of the Liver is interfered with, causing
an overflow of bile into the blood. The blood
carries this bile Into every part of the system,
causing yellow skin, yellow eyes, liver spots,
etc., and often serious cases of bilious fever
originate from this bile poisoned blood. A
few doses of Burdock Blood Bitters, taken on
appearance of bilious symptoms, will remove
them and protect the system from a probable
serious attack.
