BOG SUPPLY AND DEMAND LIGHT Office of Pittsbubq dispatch,"! Monday. July 1, 1SS9. J Buyers and sellers were somewhat diverse in their views of values at the opening of markets, and it was rather a difficult matter to ascertain the trend of trade. The outcome of the controversy was a betwixt and between result. The final issue was a market that raked little from that of last week. Collie. Supply and demand raised scarcely any from last Monday. The price of the best heavy Western beeves ranged from H 756S4 85. Medium weights, 1.200 to 1,400 pounds, 54 0 4 63, but it is doubtful U the latter figure was obtained. Prime light weights, 900 to 1,100 pounds, 53 90S 4 15; common to fair, thin and rough steers. S3 153 40. Country stock was in light supph. and it was next to impossible to obtain quotations based on actual sales. Bulls and dry cows of a low grade sold at 2 to 3c; calves brought 4 to 5c per pound. A Diamond Market butcher. ho buys at Uerr's Island, reports that the range for 1,300 to 1.500 pound cattle, such as are wanted in this mar ket, are bought at MOO to $4 5a Said he: "I beard of nothing sold above the latter figures." A few choice native calves were sold at a fraction above 5c, and some were reported as high as 6c. The first Texas call es of the season were on hand and ranged from 3 to 4c per pound.

Supply was unusually large, but for some un accountable reason market was firm at an ad vance over last week's prices of 2550c per cwt. Some dealers report a scarcity of stock through the country, and this was made tie basis of a bull movement, which counted in favor of sel lers. The following range of prices was estab lished by actual sales: Prime Western and native wethers, 54 25375. There were, how ever, very few that brought the latter figure. The outside figures lor prime, so far as could be traced, was 54 60. Medium to good wethers sold at $3 754: common to f iir, S3 25 50; yearlings 54 25g5 25; spring lambs. 4Hfic ier lb.

Receipts were light and demand was light. Hot weather has effectually knocked out the demand from butchers. The few hogs on the market were slow or sale. The range of prices was 54 25 to $4 75, the latter price being paid for smooth, light bogs. Heavy-weights go slow in the present condition of lard trade.

The Chicago market has furnished better margins for bog prodncts of late than those of Pittsburg, and some of oar packers here have been availing themselves of the ad vantage there by disposing of goods at Chicago.

Foreign Breadstuff!. London, July L Tbe-Jfar Lane Expreu, in its review of the British grain trade during the past week, says: Hot and dry weather pre vails, and is pushing wheat. Harvesting will begin about July 29, Storms in the Nether lauds and Northern France have destroyed much corn. A fine harvest is being reaped in Spain, from which country the first European samples have come. The Algerian harvest is satisfactory, and it is prophesied that there will be a surplus for export of 500,000 quarters. Over an average yield is promised in Northwest Europe. In the Latin countries there will be a full yield. The firmness of English wheat is remarkable. Prices are so extremely low that farmers have no fear of further depression re sulting from retaining their gialn, no matter what may be the probable American surplus in August or the English deliveries in September. The sales of English wheat during the week were 34,5S5 quarters at 27s lid, against 34 000 quarters at 31s 4a during the corresponding period last year. Foreign wheat has hardened Oil. American reports are less favorable. Rus sian reports are conflicting. Floor Is firm. Grinding barley is 3S6d dearer. Oat are dearer. Corn is 3d dearer, notwitb'tandlng the big importations. At to-day's market English vheat was 6d dearer. The supply is much re iuced. Foreign was held at 6d advance, which myers were not ready to pay, except for fine lussian. Flour was steady. Grinding barley .as firm. Malting was lifeless. Oats were lull. Com was firm. MARKETS BY WIBE. A Batch ot Bad Crop News Booms the "Wheat Market Price Higher All Ronnd December Still the Center of Attraction. Chicago A large business was transacted in wheat to-day In a speculative way, and the feeling developed was very unsettled and nervous. Fluctuations were frequent and cov ered a wide range for July, with the other futures not fluctuating quite so wildly. Prices ruled higher all round. July was advanced 1J4C then declined ljfc under rather free offer, ings by a prominent commission house, recov ered Kc and closed He higher than Saturday. August advanced He and closed z highsr. September advanced lc and closed Jc higher. December, which Is attracting more attention, advanced c, declined lc, recovered andclosed Jfc higher than Saturday. The principal influences governing the mar ket were tie reports of dry weather and un favorable crop advices from the Northwest, and the rather free inspection here. Advices were received from various sources stating that the crop outlook in Southern and Central Dakota is very poor, and it has been Intimated that the yield may fall short of last year. A moderate speculate business was re ported in corn, and the feeling developed was comparatively firm, with the exception of a short spell at the opening, when an easy tone was apparent. The strengthening Influence was due mainly to the active shipping demand, cash lots selling at a premium over July. The Slate agricultural report was also looked upon as a bullish factor. The market openea at Saturday's closing prices, fluctuated within c range and closed c higher than Saturday. In oats a better trade was noted and a firmer feeling existed, especially In July, owing to large shipments. Mess pork was only moderately active. Early the feeling was easier and prices receded 7 10c. Later prices rallied 57c and closed steady. A dull, weak feeling prevailed In the lard market, due, chiefly, to the tree deliveries on Julv contracts. Prices declined 2)j5c early in the day, but during the latter part of the day the decline was recovered. Rather a firmer feeling was manifested In the market for short rib sides, bnt trading was only moderate. Prices ruled 25c higher abd the market closed rather firm.

Eeal Estate Starts off With "a Fifty Thousand Dollar Deal. ' MILLIONS TO BE TURKED LOOSE. Work on the Country Eoads, and How They Manage Each Things In the South! ATTACK UPON PITTSBURG COAL TBADJ5 There was a' $50,000 deal in real estate yesterday, but not another fact regarding it could be'run down. The property is located near an Eastern suburb and is presumably unimproved land. .A. lot in the Lloyd Circle plan brought $75 a front foot All of the agents visited reported a beginning giving promise of a busv week. They said they had very little trouble in collecting rents. The Jnly disbursements of dividends and interest in Pittsburg will amount in round numbers to $1,000,000. New York will at the same time disburse $80,000',000, Boston $10,000,000. Philadelphia $11,000,000; total $102,000,000. The Government will in ad dition pay out about $7,000,000 quarterly interest on United States 4 per cent bonds and $1,938,705 half yearly interest on the currency sixes. These payments will make a grand total of upward of $111,000,000. The release of this large sum will be beneficial to all branches of business, and will no doubt make the last half of the year better than the first. Reports from several sections of the county are to the effect that extensive repairs are being made on the public roads. This is good as far as it goes, but to afford full relief the work should be extended to every district and precinct. Old Allegheny Is rich enough to have good roads so that farmers can bring their pro- duce to market at any and all seasons of the year. A gentleman who spent last winter and spring in Georgia tells me that roads are made and kept in repair in that State by convict labor. Fulton county, of which Atlanta is the county seat, has excellent macadamized roads, con structed by the chain gang, and Floyd county, which has utilized its criminals during the past few years in the same manner, has 40 miles of good roads to show for it. I state the fact without Indorsing the system, one objection to which is that it comes in competition with free labor. According to the Manufacturers' Hecord, a Southern publication. Pittsburg's coal trade with the country along the Mississippi river is threatened. It states that the Georgia Pacific Railroad is building coal chutes at Greenville. Miss, and it is said by the-tofflcers of this road that they will soon deliver coal to the river boats at SI 50 a ton.. Moreover, the railroad company is building a number of barges for shipping coal to all points from Greenville to New Orleans. 1 mentioned (his to one of our coal operators yesterday. He said the statement was proba bly correct, bnt that Pittsburg coat was so su perior to the Southern product that there was not much danger of its being crowded out of the market. A Plttshurggentleman who does business on Liberty Btreet has received a letter from Seattle, written some time subsequent to the fire, which states, in substance, that arrange ments were being made to rebuild and that brick would be the material used, clay for which exists in large quantities in the immediate vicinity. One paragraph of the letter is worth quoting; "The high winds which prevail here almost constantly make wooden buildings peculiarly unsafe, by carrying sparks to great distances and causing fires that would not otherwise occur. To obviate this danger brick will be the building material of the future. Activity in real estate is not confined to the North. At a recent sale of building lots at Stevenson, Ala., S14S.535 worth it ere sold, some, bringing as high a price as 5300 a front foot. A broker remarked yesterday: "I am sur prised that Pittsburg Junction Railway Stock does not command a better price It is earning an income in excess of its fixed charges, and its business is steadily increasing. I think Investors have overlooked the claims of this road, or they would take more interest in the stock. I look for an active movement in it before long." m The Distillers' and Cattle Feeders' Trust, in which dealings were begun on Friday, is one of the oldest combinatio ns ot this kind. It is cap italized at about $30,000,000, and has beeu or ganized about two years. Over 85 per cent of the distillers In the country are included in the trust. Its business is the manufacture of al cohol and high wines, and the sale of the refuse to cattle breeders for feeding purposes. STOCKS STILL SLOW. Investors Want to Know Something About Dividends Before Pitching; In. The Interest period is always unfavorable to activity in stocks, investors being desirous of ascertaining profits and prospects before mak ing fresh ventures. This was the case at the Stock Exchange yesterday, only four Issues being traded in, and the sales amounting to only 230 shares. Electric and Philadelphia Gas were stronger. The other gassers and the tractions about held their own. A membership sold at S446, against $1,100 something more than three years ago. This is a good reason why members are taking steps to broaden the field of operations. Keystone Bank stock reached the par line, 20 shares of It selling at 60. A broker remarked: "I expect a decided im provement in the market as soon as the ques tion of dividends and interest Is settled. This will release a large amount ot money, some of which will go into speculation. 1 think the outlook is very encouraging." Bids, offers and sales were: AVTXBlfOOX. Hid. Asked. Pitts. Pet. S.AM.

Business Hardly Up to Expectations A Lovrejr Level Established. Business at the Oil Exchange yesterday was the opposite of exciting, and the range of prices was lower than on Saturday. Cash and regular July options were dull and the quota tions on them were practically the same as for August. The latter opened with a steady feel ing at 93, and gradually sold np Ji. which was high water mark for the day. The market hung around that figure nearly all the after noon and closed weak at 92. lower than the opening. Trading was light, both East and West, and news of any kind was scarce. The Increased consumption of oil and steady decline of pro duction are regarded as favorable to an ad vance In the near future Saturday's clearings were 652,000 barrels. The new plan has so far failed to enlist the co-operation of the outside interest. Features of the Market. Corrected dally by John M.

Business In That Close of Secnrillee Broken Leave for the Holiday Small Advances at the Close. New Yore, Jnly L The stock market to day was extremely dull., especially In railroad stocxs, of which only St. Paul and Atchison showed any animation whatever. The trusts were fairly active, though lead and sugar monopolized the interest in that class of secu rities. The speculation, however, had all day long rather a holiday aspect, and little is ex pected for the remainder of the week, owing to the holiday cutting the week in two. and many brokers have gone away to stay tne entire time There was a better tone to the market from the opening and London was a buyer, which gave much encouragement to the advocates of higher figures. The purchases for foreign account, bowever. were small, and in a large market would bare attracted no at tention. The fluctuations in the general list were confined throughout to the smallest limits, and outside of the stocks beiore mentioned there was actually no feature at all in the usually ac tive list. Atchison was remarkably weak in the forenoon on tie rumors that the company bad been compelled to borrow money for the July Interest, and the old talk of a receiver vi as beard in some quarters, which, while it gained no credence served to give a drooping tone to the stock. After the first honr, how ever, the stock remained steady and became much less active There was considerable pressure also upon St. Paul in the forenoon, but the effort met with no success, andlater in the day the more hopeful aspect,ot the West ern railroad situation sent that stock np frac tionally above Its last Saturday's price. In the trusts, lead was still the most active but it developed some weakness after 12 o'clock and retired slightly, the fluctuations in the stock, bowever, were small and did not extend over a range of 1 per cent dnring the day, while the early loss was recovered, bugjr continued its rise of last Tteek and in the first hour It ad vanced rapidly, scoring a gain of nearly 4 per cent, after which it remained almost stationary until the last hour, when It again moved up and closed at 123. Among the inactive shares of the regular list, Ohio Southern showed marked strength, and later Southern Pacific moved up materially and finally scored a gain of IK per cent. The market closed very dull but firm to strong, and generally at advances of small fractions over Saturday's figures. Railroad bonds were quiet, but there was a little more animation than nsual of late, which, however, ivas entirely due to the Increased trading in the Cbesaneake and Ohio 5s. which nI contributed S37LOO0 to the day's total of $1,187,- I riW1 TlilM w.l An Mha, fi.lnH tn Iht HMllnH and prices were held steady throughout tne dav. with very few movements of tmoortance Duluth and Manitoba, Dakota division, 6s rose" 4toii(H.
