OrncB or pjttsburo Dispatch, I
Wedxesdat. August 7. 1SS8. J
Supplies for the week aggregated 118
carloads, against 135 loads last week. The
quality did not arerage up as well as those
received a week ago. "While there were
about 15 loads of good shipperf, weighing
1,400 to 1,500 pounds, there were no extra
primes in this week'a receipts. The bulk of
supplies were common to good butchering
cattle. Chicago furnished 17 loads of light
stock, mostly betters and cdws. Of this grade
supply exceeds demand and sales were only
mide by liberal concessions. This is the time
of the year when markets are usually over
stocked with ligbtweigbt cattle from near-by
districts. Tbe heavy rnn from Chicago demor
alized markets, and on these lightweights
prices this week were tbe lowest of the season.
Tbe range for this erade of cattle was tl 10 to
S3 00, and at these figures markets were slow.
Ten carloads of 1,400 to 1,450-ponnd cattle
which were bought for export sold at $4 10
to M 80. Three loads of the best on tbe
market were bonght for New York at SI 35.
This was the highest price paid this week.
There is no essential difference in prices as
compared with last weckexcept for light stock,
which were in liberal supply.
Herr's Island drovers report a loss on this
wee k's operations because of tbe higher prices
they were forced to pay in Chicago, wblle
butchers here could not be brought to pay the
advance. Drovers this week have generally
suffered loss, if tney bought last week. One
drover said, ! would be glad to close this
week's deals at a loss of $75?' Another placed
his losses at 1100. and another at $50. Tbe op
portunities ot our butchers to secure stock at
low figures tbls week bave been first class. It
is not learned that the consumer is to derive
any benefit from low-priced cattle. He will no
doubt be required to pay the same for his
roasts and steaks as wben tbe price of live
stock was at least 3c per pound above rates of
to-day. Tbe butcher's excuse for holding np
prices Is that tallow, bides and rough meat are
so much reduced in price.
It Is assuredly time that our steaks and roasts
should join tbe downward movement of eata
bles. With choice beeves selling at M to St 50,
15 to 20c per pound for beef, is too high or it
was dreadfully low a few years ago when cat
tle brought 7 to 8c per pound.
The present must be a harvest time for butch
ers and exporters.
Sheep and Lamb.
The run was light, Monday's receipts being 18
loads against 26 tbe previous Monday. Tues
day's receipts were 6 to 8 loads, and to-day but
one load was reported. Markets varied little
from last week, the light run being the saving
clause.
The range for wethers was 3?i to 4fl. Noth
ing above the latter figure could be traced.
Lambs brought from $4 65 to $5 50. Anything
of a choice quality In sheep or Iambs found
ready sale. Low grades, which were In the
majority, were dull and slow at inside quota
tions. In these days of low prices and narrow
margins good goods bave tbe lead more de
cidedly than in high price times. Low grades
can only be foisted on to markets by conces
sions. nogs.
Markets present no new features. Supply
was light as it always is In midsummer. Sheep
meat seems to be more in demand than pork.
Heavy bogs are particularly slow. Lard keeps
drifting downward, and while this is the case,
heavy hogs will inevitably go slow.

MARKETS BY WISE.
The Ball Side of 'ike Wheat Pit Gets a
Black Eye Good News for Con-
sninrra A Big Hrycr Check
the Decline .mil Saves
tho liny.
CHICAGO, August 7. Tlio trend of wheat
values was downward to-day. The local trad
ing crowd bave been working the bull tide of
the market for tho past two or three days, but
this morning the feeling was weak in the ex
treme, before as well as after the opening.
Cables came in unfavorably, both spot and fut
ures of wheat at Liverpool being quoted lower,
with a limited demand. Tbe increase for the
week in the quantity on ocean passage, accord
ing to tbe boards report, was 880.000 bushels,
butBeerbohm made the Increase 1,040,000 bush
els, and explained that it was almost all Rus
sian wheat.
This was regarded as a bear circumstance.
Coupled with the depressing cables was the fine
weather on this side and free movement of
wheat into the primary markets. Influences
were in fact pretty generally fjcrable for
lower. prices, barring the good cash demand
for both wheat and flour, and this did not ap
pear to have as mnch weight, either yesterday
or to-day, as the bulls bad hoped for and confi
dently expected. The opening was K
under yesterday's closing range, and before
noon tbe market weakened c more, De
cember selling down to TSJ-c. At that figure a
prominent local operator was a free buyer,
taking, it was said, fully a million and one-half
of December at TSc and under.
The effect of this buying was to check the
decline, and the market slowly rallied to the
opening price of 78Kc Later It became weak
and receded to about inljlo figures, closings
being at a net loss for the day in leading fut
ures of iHc Considerable long wheat was
closed out by tbe local bull houses ana at times
was fairly active, though tbe volume of trade
on the aggregate was not large.
Corn ruled rather quiet the greater part of
the session, though there were periods of
temporary activity. The feeling on the whole
was easier, and trading was at slightly lower
prices of yesterday and easy and offerings were
quite free. Influenced some by tbe fine weather,
and prices declined c. A large local specu
lator was a buyer on the decline and the market
rallied, eased off a little and closed Jc lower
tban yesterday. There was some selling on
country account early in th day. Tbe demand
for cash when the market opened also had a
strengthening influence on the market. Cables
were less favorable to holders, and domestic
markets were easy and steady.
There was less trading in oats and a quiet
and cesier feeling prevailed, but price changes
were confined to a small range.
Considerable interest was manifested in the
market for mess pork tbrougbout the day.
Prices were advanced 1012c,and closed at
outside figures.
The market for lard attracted considerable,
attention. Early tbe feeling was firm and
prices were advanced 7X10c. Later prices
receded 25c. At the close it rallied again
and ruled firm.
Fair attention was given short ribs. Early
the feeling was stronger and prices ruled 2K
6o higher. Later prices receded again. To
ward the close rallied 57c and closed steady.

Timely Advice to Countrj Boys Who Bare
an Itching for the City.
TfllEri-FOUEDOLIiAKS AFOOTFOELAKD
Mr. J. S. Fisher, a prominent local lum
ber dealer, in conversation yesterday, told
how an Ohio farmer made a mistake. He
said: "X was in the Bnckeye State on busi
ness a short time ago. In walking along a
railroad I discovered a large lot of black
walnut ties. They had been famished by a
fanner who. presumably, never reads the
papers and did not know the value of the
wood. When I told him he was mad
enough to kick himself. I was mad, too. to see
such waste of a valuable wood. He could have
got dollars for it in Pittsburg, where he got
cents from tbe railroad." ,
Thirty-two mortgages were filed for record
yesterday. The largest. was for $11,400 to Bank
of Pittsburg. The next largest was for $10,000
to J. R. Mellon. Thirteen were for $1,000 and
np to $4,000. A large proportion of these mort
gages was for nnrchase money. The activity
in this business bids fair to eventually absorb
all the idle money of which so much has been
said.
It would be Interesting to know how many
men In the city these hot August days, who are
tied down to business in close, hot and dusty
stores and offices while the blazing sun makes
the streets, the sidewalks and even the very
brick walla radiate an increased beat, wish
they were barefooted boys again, and out in
tbe country in the cool shade, where tbey
could dress as they pleased. As a rule, the
city man wants to go to the country and tbe
countryman wants to come to the city. It is the
same with boys. But, as Shakespeare puts it,
they bad better bear tbe ills tbey bave tban fly
to others they know not of. Comparatively
few country boys succeed In the city. A large
majority of tbem prove pronounced failures,
and sink out of sight and remembrance in a
few years. A few of those with exceptional en
ergy, natural force of character, or special ad
vantages acquire fortunes and fame. Country
boys, unless tbey have trades, professions, cap
ital or some other special calling or advantage,
should avoid the city.
w
The lumber trade is unusually active for the
season. Tbls is attributed to the large number
of buildings going up in the city and suburbs.
This industry will improve later on, when there
will be an advance in prices. There are already
signs of an awakening. No towns, houses or
transportation lines can be built without lum
ber. If all the projected booms and improve
ments materialize, and there is good evidence
to show that a great many of them will, there
will be a rush lor lumber at an early date.
Reoently there has been an addition made to
the food plants produced in this country, which
in time may prove a strong rival of Indian corn.
The new plant is called cassava, and it can be
grown to perfection in almost all the Southern
States, A person who has given special atten
tion to the cassava thinks that from 10 to 50 tons
of roots of one year's growth ougnt to be ob
tained from an acre of land, according to its
quality. This is little better than conjecture,
but certainly the plant yields enormously under
certain conditions. It makes an excellent flour.
This is alarming news to lovers of Johnnycakes,
hoecakes and dodgers,
- w
Lots In the Orchard plan, at Wilkinsburg,
are selling at tbe rata of $34 afoot. Six or
eight years ago tbey went a-begging at half the
money. Water works, churches of nearly all
denominations, the finest school building out
side of the cities and unsurpassed railroad fa
cilities are attracting attention to Wilkinsburg
as one of the most desirable places for residence
around Pittsburg;
Tbe advance in prices during the past two
weeks was not confined entirely to Wall street.
Within that time wheat has risen 7 cents per
bushel, corn 7 cents per bushel, coffee 70
points, cotton 1-18, lead 10 points, tin 15 points,
copper 25 points, and oil about 6 cents per bar
rel! Local stocks have also participated in the
upward movement.
The prophet who a few years ago proclaimed
tbat all houses for common use would ulti
mately be built of paper, was laughed at as
impractical. But it is quite rapidly coming

There was not mnch of a stock market yes

are too many brokers and investors away to ex

in that stock than it was thought to possess.
It gave way a trifle in the afternoon, however,

Clearing Danse Figures Show Trade to, be
In Excellent Condition.
Reports at several ot the local banking insti
tutions yesterday were to the effect that money'
was plenty and rates unchanged. A Slight Im
provement In the borrowing demand was
noted, but as depositing was, liberal and check
ing rather light; the flow of money was toward
the banks. That there will be a good demand
for money wben the fall trade sets in Is the
opinion of nearly every financier in the city.
The Clearing House report indicated a large
movement lor August in tbe various lines of
trade. .
One of the largest wholesale dry goods firms
reported July sales 120,000 larger tban in the
same month last year, and a still larger busi
ness so far this month. The clearings were
11,795,265 84, and the balances $453,740 03. Cur
rency was scarce, and some of the banks used
considerable gold in making settlements.

The Ball Leader Flaying; a Little j
Game Final Omagra Show
Mo Partlenlnr Losses (
r Gains.
New Yobk, August 7. The stock market to
day again showed a loss In the amount of ,nusi
n ess done. It was irregular and prices at times
sageed off slowly, while the movemei ta in
everything except the few leading shares were
confined to the smallest fractions audi were
generally withoat special significance. The be
lief gained ground that the bull leaders were
desirous of shaking off some of their tcjo nu
merous small followers, and drrrlag mostbf tbe
day did nothing and allowed prices Xo tkg un
der tbe assaults of the traders, while joutaide
1 centers were also seemingly doing llttlei though
London bosght some of lta favoritek wh4J
business, however, amonnted to small propor
tions." The Chicago people who were so lately
prominent in the upward movement were con
spicuous by their absence, and the realizations
included were sufficient to check the upward
tendency in prices.
.The opening was generally firm, bnt while
Delaware and Hudson was exceptionally
strong, with a rise of per cent, in but few
cases were the further advances of any mo
ment Lake Erie and Western preferred was
a feature and rapidly rose IK per cent, touch
Ing 63 and later in the day rose M more. Tbe
Chesapeake and Oblo stocks and Cleveland,
Columbus, Cincinnati and St Louis preferred
also made marked advances, but outside of
tnesethe market bad a drooping tendency
which lasted tbrougbout the forenoon, and at
12 o'clock almost everything traded in was
slightly lower than at tbe -upenine.
After that time there was some support given
to prices while tbe selling slacked off, and
wblle the market became extremely dull there
was a firm tone to the dealings, and before 2 p.
K. most of the list had reached the highest
prices of the day and were fractionally higher
than tint figures. Considerable animation was
aeveloped in Missouri Pacific and St Paul, but
the rest of tbe list were quiet and dull. There
was a renewal of tbe selling In tbe last hour
and prices again yielded, but the tone at tbe
close was firm, with the dullness very marked.
The only really active stocks were St Paul
Chesapeake and Ohio common and Atchison.
Tbe final changes are about equally divided
between gains and losses, and were fractionally
Railroad bonds were quiet The market was
generally firm, tbe only feature being tbe
strength in the Kansas and Texas issues and
tbe final changes are small and quite irregular.

LATE -NEWS IN BRIEF.
A man has been arrested at Laredo, Tex.,
who Is tnonght to be the Tascott murderer.
The Sheriff Is holding him awaiting orders
from Chicago.
Yesterday afternoon John Richter and
Adolph Whitman, butchers at tbe Chicago
stock vards. quarreled over some trifling
matter, and Richter plunged his butcher knife
into Whitman's heart killing him instantly.
Richter was locked up.
Instructions bave been received from New
York to discontinue work on the Standard
Spirit Company's distillery building at La
Salle, 111. Nearly $100,000 has so far oeen ex
pended in tbe plant It is believed that the
Whisky Trust has secured control of the con
cern. The Navy Department has instructed the
commanding officer of tbe United States
steamer Michigan to be present with tbe vessel
at Milwaukee during tbe jSatinnal Encamp
ment of the G. A. R. on August 27 1" 30, to take
part In the sham tattle and otherwise promote
the success of the encampment.
For tbe last four v, eeks tbe bloody flux has
been epidemic amoncr tbe citizens of, White
Hall, lib, and about 30 deaths bave occurred
up to date. The disease I as now made its ap
pearance in tbe country adjacent to tbe oity
and it Is feared that it may spread throughout
thetoun'v. Tbe physicians bave been unable
to check the terrible epidemic.
While at work on tbe highway, e'ight miles
west of Peoria, I1L, on what Is known as the
Lancaster road, William Given and J. W. Rich
mond, two farmers, unearthed 15 skeletons.
Tbey were all together, as if from one inter
ment and were remarkably well preserved.
One skeleton was large and well developed.
Tbe others were rather inferior, and four of
tbem were children. Tbey were found on a
gravel bank near Nesselbaus Hill.
That tbe people of Spokane Falls hare by
no means lost heart by the recent terrible dis
aster, or are Inclined to abandon the city by tbe
falls, is evidenced by the preparations for re
building and tbe buildings begun. Tbrougbout
all the excitement attendant upon the destruc
tion of Sunday night there was a manifest dis
position on tbe part of all to assist in staying
tbe conflagration, and there were none of tbe
scenes of disorder and pillage that have marked
the experience of other cities similarly af
flicted. Order was maintained throughout and
tbe spirit of recuperation has manifested itself
in a marked degree.
Fortv Russian peasants, comnnalnp all the
inhabitants of a small village in tbe Govern
ment of Kursk, have been arrested for burning
the whole village to the ground to obtain tbe
insurance. The curious featnre of this cue Is
tbe evident innocence of these simple villagers
of any wrong doing. They made no secret of
their plans, gathered together and placed In a
safe place such of their effects as they wished
to save, awaited a favorable wind and annlied
the torch. Their houses, these simple villagers
explain, were old and tbey were anxious to im
prove the town by erecting new ones in their
stead with the insurance they expected. Tbey
are at a loss to understand their arrest
-Jefferson Davis having become dissatisfied
with his profits upon his book, "The Rise and
Fall of the Southern Confederacy," has had a
dispute with the publishers of the work,
Messrs. D. Appleton fc Co., as to the amoun:
due him. The firm has made a proposition to
refer the Question to arbitrators, and Mr. Davis
'has accepted this offer. The publishers say
uai tne aaie 01 the dook is connnea almost ex
clusively to the South, wbere the poverty of
the people materially limits the circulation of
the work. Tbe publishers claim that tbe sale
of the book in the North was almost entirety
killed by the extracts from the work printed in
the newspapers in reviewing it These ex
tracts show such a strong sectional feeling that
Northern people declined to purchase the
work.
The people of South Chicago are agitated
over the condition of affairs at the morgue. On
the morning of July 31 the body of an unknown
man was found on the lake shore, and was
placed in tbe morgue. The same day tbe Cor
oner held an inquest and issued a burial per
mit but for some reason the body has not been
removed. The county undertaker usually dele
gates some local undertaker to remove un
known bodies, but as tbls body soon became
badly decomposed, tbe local undertakers would
not touch it for the fee of (S, which the county
allows in such cases. Aaa result tbe body is
still at tbe morgue, and Is daily becoming more
decomposed, so that it is almost impossible to
go near tbe place: Health OficerLarkln fumi
gated the morgue, but this has not helped mat.
Mrs much. He says now that it is dangerous
tor anyone to go near the body, as the fumes
arising would bailable to cause disease. Tbe
Lieutenant of Police said tbe police were not
concerned, aa when the body waa turned over
to the Coroner their jurisdiction ended.

Lumber.
Demand is fair, but there is no boom. It is
next to impossible to prooure dry hemlock. A
leading dealer who received a carload of hem
lock within a few days said: "Tbe style now Is
to saw hemlock one day and ship the next"
An order for 3,600,000 feet of lumber was placed
with a Pittsburg firm the past week. This con
tract is for tbe embryo city of Wilmerding on
Turtle Creek. The outlook for fall trade in
lumber lines is healthy.

WOULD RATHER' DIE.. r'
'"I would rather die than undergo another ex
perience such as I have for the past four years
Tbe catarrhal poison in my system caused me
to ne continually taxing coiu, auu wiin every
cold tbe pains in ray bead became more in
tense.' Although I was able to get rid of soma
of tbe poisonous matter by hawking and spit
ting out what dropped down into my throat,
and had some nasal discbarge, yet the secre
tion kept piling up in my head much faster
than I was able to expel it, until a severe Inflam
mation and ulceration set in. My eyes became
so inflamed and weak that I was obliged to
wear spectacles lor one year and a half. My
nose became greatly swollen and puffed outand
tbe disease ulcerated deeper and deeper
until Are bones dropped out ot my nose,
some of them measuring one inch and a half
in length- Also, a large bone dropped out of
tbe roof of my month. Although my appetite
was good, ret I gradually lost flesh until I only
weighed 73 pounds. I treated with several
physicians, but found no relief, for I could
neither get any peace by day or rest by night.
I finally became very deaf, and as my condi
tion was continually growing worse I gave np
all hope, until one day I happened to read In
tbe papers testimonials from patients who bad
been cured of catarrh at the Catarrh and
Dyspepsia Institute, at 323 Fenn avenue, and
as these patients' full name and residence
was given, I thonght that perhaps there was
yet some doctor who did really cure
catarrh. I called at the Catarrh
and Dyspepsia Institute. and was
told by the physicians that although they
could not restore tbe lost parts occasioned by
tbe bones dropping out, they could yet remove
every trace of the catarrhal poison from my
system, and thus save me from consumption
for my throat had become very sore and ulcer
ated, and I was afraid I would die with con
sumption, as some of my f nends had done. I
therefore placed myself under their treatment
and tbey bare kept their word, for I have been
entirely cured by their constitutional blood
medicines, and, strange as it may seem, ther
never gave ma any local treatments at alh
This leads me to think that catarrh has its
origin In the blood. My bearing has been re
stored. I have regained my flesh, and feel well
and strong: I reside on Penn avenue, this
city, just opposite bt. Mary's Cemetery, and
shall be pleased to tell anyone further of my
terribl3 suffering and wonderful cure.
