Office or PnrsBUiia Dispatch,
Monday. August 26. lbsa. J
The run of stock was larger than the de
mands of trade, and prices were weaker all
along the line.
Prices at Chicago were a shade lower last
week than those bought the week before,
and, as supplies were heavy, concessions
were made by holders, so that markets ruled
15 to 20c lower than last Monday, with some un
sold at latest accounts. Prime heavy beeves,
weighing 1,500 to L.UU0 pounds, ranged in price
from M 75 to Jo 00. A Diamond Market butcher
reports that be bought borne primes at $4 75,
which would have brought 5 00 a week ago.
Medium weights. 1,350 to 1,450 pounds, sold at
$4 GO to $4 75; 1,200 to 1,300-pound cattle, H 20 to
to SI 50; prime light weights, 900 to 1,100 pounds,
S3 95 to SI 15; common to fair thin and rough
steers, S3 10 to S3 55. Cows were dull and slow
at $20 to $10 per head. Calves wero oniet and
unchanged at a ran go of 4 to (c per pound.
A few extra fine brought bc Bulls, stags and
dry cows were in light supply, but equal to de
mand. No sales in this Hue were reported ith
the exception of a few dry cows at 3c to 3c
per ponnd Fresh cows are of slow sale at bed
rock prices, x leading dealer in this lino said
to-da: "There is nothing in our trade at pres
ent. "The ideas of country people as to iresli
cows are much larger than facts warrant. We
cannot buy at prices which will yield a living
profit in the presentconditiou of markets. Re

Sheep nnd Lambs.
Supply was larger than usual and demand
was light at lower figures than last Monday.
The decline was 10 to 15 per cent. The near
approach of the bog season is having a depress
ing influence on mutton in the opinion of a
Butler county drover. The best heavy Western
wethers sold at SI b5 to 4 75. A butcher reports
that be bought as good sheep as he wanted at
4c, and Iambs at 5c Some common stock sold
as low as 3c The range as reported for me
dium to good sheep was $4 10 to S4 35; common
to fair. S3 40 to S3 CO; ewes, S3 to S3 25; lambs,
yA to UJic per pound. One or two extra good
bunches of lambs brought SO 50 to SO CO per
hundred-weight. Receipts From Chicago, 1.

Uokk.
Notwithstanding increased interest in this
department of lire stock, prices were a shade
lower than last week.
The range for Western hogs was quoted at
$4 50 to S4 85, but is doubtful if the latter figure
was obtained for the very best. A leading
bujer sajs he bought the best on the market
at $1 70. Home bogs were quoted at a rango of
U 00 to SI .50. Receipts From Chicago, L.

bead; last week, SW: previous week, 144. A
Rutler county drover who deals in sheep and
lambs almost exclusivcly.reports sales of lambs
at a range of 4 to (. haid he, "There wero
some extra fine bunches of lambs which
brought as much as cy.e, but these were no
criterion to the markeu The heavy run and
scarcity of prime stock gave an extra boom to
this grade." In these days of low prices low
grade of stock are the great sufferers. Good
goods bold up fairly welL But this week's
trade shows w eakness and a shade low er prices
on all live stock at Ilerr's Island.

Londox, August 2a The Mark Lane Ex
press, in its review of the British grain trade
during the past wek. says: A rainy and
chilly Augnst has diminished the valuo of the
crops. The area of rain-soaked corn is very
large. The condition of barley Is also very
bad. The samples of new wheat received hat e
not been numerous. The opening price for
white wheat was 30s, and for red 34s. Wheat
sells slow. Old wheat sells slow and deliveries
have been larger than usual and prices are low.
The sales of English wheat during the week
were 33,670 quarters at 30s 6d, against 20,613
quarters at 3Gs Id during the corresponding
eriod last year. One cause for the cheapness
of home-grown wheat 13 attributed to the
languid demand for flour and the pltntitnde
and cheapness of vegetables. Both foreign
flour and foreign wheat are dull. The supplies
exceed the requirements, being nearly 100,000
quarters ahead of the demand during the week,
lieans and peas aro firm, owing to the bad re
ports of home yield and the large quantity of for
eign on passage prevents an advance. At to
day's market fine white new wheat was held at
30s to SSs; fair damp red was offered at Sis to
34 and old English, 31s. The big strike blocks
trade. Foreign wheat for immediate delivery
was dearer. Corn, except for immediate de
livery was easier; the inquiry was slack. Bar
ley was steady. Oats were dearer.

the World's Supply Corn Lower
nnd Oats btendy.
Chicago The market was active and higher
for wheat to-daj. At tho opening prices did
not show material changes from Saturday's
closing rango on futures, and the continuation
of the fine weather overywhere on this side
caused a majority1 of speculators to feel very
friendly to the short side. The most bullish
feature of tbo day was the report, said to bo
based upon reliable information from abroad,
that tho Vienna' Grain Congress, in the esti
mates that It would give out to-morrow, would
show a shortage In the wheat crop of Europe
of 15 per cent. The report will show, it is said,
222.000.0CO bushels less than an average crop for
five years, and tho trade hero figured it out
that if the report proves correct there will be a
shortage In the world's crop of ISO.000,000 bush
els for 1S89.
On this news the prico of December was run
uptooc, or lc above Saturday's closing
quotations. Closing cables were dull with a
limited demand for spot wheat at Klc decline
in prices at Liverpool, which is rather difficult
to harmonize with the Vienna report. What is
still more remarkable is the fact that thero
were Paris selling orders here to-day from par
ties who have an agent in Vienna. Based on
Saturdays closing the advance in futures to
day was Ui01c August showing tho greatest
strength.
Corn was actiro and w cak early in tho ses
sion, with trading quite heavy, but later a re
action follow ed. '1 he early w eakness was due
to large receipts and fino weather and pros
pects of a large increase in the Msiblo supply.
The market opened KKC lower than the clos
ing of Saturdav, was weak and declined iiic,
rallied ic became quiet and steady.closiug
HG!c lower than Saturday.
Oats were fairly active, weaker and Jc lower
early, due to large receipts. An increase in the
visible supply, large offering and weakness in
the corn made the activity. Later buyers took
hold freely. Tho advance in wheat also pro
duced a better feeling, and prices advanced
GJs'c, and the market closed steady.
The inquiry for mess pork was fairly active,
but the offerings were, not very large. Prices
ruled 15020c higher, and the advance was fairly
well advanced.
Very little interest was manifested in lard,
and the feeling was steady. Trading was mod
erately active in nbs. Early the feeling was
stronger and slightly advanced prices were ob
tained. Later the feeling was easier, and the
market closed steady at about medium figures.

JOHN BULL'S' TECDLIAE MONEY.
A Silver Certificate Which the Pnllic
Should Guard Against, and
nOW A FINANCIER TALKS ABOUT IT
Although it is probably too soon by two
or three weeks to expect a permanent re
vival of business, all of the movements and
indications yesterday were in that direction.
There was more Hie in stocks than had been
witnessed for many a Monday. Even pe
troleum operators demonstrated that they
are not ready to shut up shop. There was a
good inquiry for bouses and lots, and abrisk
demand for mortgages.
Bankers reported actual business rather
better than earlier in the month, with a
rosy prospect ahead. In conversation sev
eral of them stated that the money flurry in
the East had about died oat, and with it
had disappeared the last obstacle to a bnsy and
profitable fall and winter trade, in which every
branch of business would share
A dangerous counterfeit, or fraudulent sil
ver certificate of tho denomination of (10 has
been put in circulation in the last few days.
It is so well executed that Government experts
and local bankers think it is printed from
stolen plates. Speaking of this counterfeit
yesterday, a Fourth avenue financier said: "If
tho opinion generally held, that this note was
printed from stolen plates, bo correct, the Gov
ernment should bear tho loss, as bank tellers
and the people havo no mean3 of protecting
themselves against a fraud of this 'kind, of
which carelessness on the part of tho treasury
officials is certainly an element."
He added: "Responsibility for counterfeit
or bogus money should go further. Frequently
unsigned national bank bills are stolen any the
proper names filled in by the thieves. If the
banks exercised proper care this could not hap
pen. The banks should be held to as strict ac
countability for their issues as men in other
branches of business are for their acts. How are
tho people to know whether the bills they re
ceive are properly signed or not, when experts
aro often at a loss to distinguish between the
bogus and the genuine, and to make them bear
the loss Is unjust as well as unreasonable."
Several of the large drygoods firms in New
York report a material increase in the volume
of business, and say that the fall trade opens
most auspiciously. Tbo noticeable feature at
present is the large number of Southern people
who are in the metropolis buying goods. Pay
ments are being promptly made, and the entire
situation, as compared with previous years at
this period, is eminently satisfactory, and the
prospects lor a continuation of a big business
this fall and winter are unmistakably good.

Jay Gould said to a fellow broker tho other
day: "I feel the same as every other sensible
man does on the market. 1 am a bull and look
for considerably higher prices this fall. and. I
think that results will substantiate the position
which I take"
It is seldom that anything so unusual as to at
tract special attention occurs in any of tho
Pittsbnrg banks, but an instance of this kind
happened yesterday. Shortly before noon an
old gentleman, so "English, yon know,"that he
either dropped all of his "h's" in talking, or
used them where they did not belong, ap
proached the assistant cashier's window in a
Fourth avenno bank and said ho Tt anted to
make a deposit. "All right," said the official.
"Wo will be very glad to open an account with
you." The gentleman thereupon drew from
his pocket a number of Bank of England notes,
amounting, in all, to S00,or, in round numbers,
$4,000. He said he bad just' arrived from En
gland, and as he intended to remain here, and
had no immediate use for tho money, be had
concluded to deposit for safety-
Tho notes are printed on thin, delicate white
paper of the best quality, and are about five
inches wide by six or seven in length. The en
graving is plain and neat, presenting a marked
contrast in this respect to the ornate appear
ance of American Treasury notes or national
bank bills. Upon a casual observation, these
notes would bo considered easy prey for the
counterfeiter, but a close inspection reveals a
maze of delicate lines and marks woven into
the paper, each of which, no doubt, possesses
special significance, and the least variation in
which would be perceived by experts at a
glance. In England the penalty for counter
feiting these notes is death.
The report of tho underwriters' committee
on the great fire at Seattle tells the old story of
an inflammably built town, growing at a phe
nomenal rate and indifferent to tho need of in
creasing its means of protection against fire
correspondingly. The water mains, which had
once served tho place satisfactorily, bad be
come too small, and no arrangements had been
made for drawing a supply in case of need,
from the great body of salt water which
washed the wharves. The volunteer fire de
partment, insufficiently provided with the ap
paratus and comparatively untrained, was
powerless in tbo face of tho lightning-like
spread of the flames. In brief, tbo city was not
pronerly equipped to contend with any but the
most ordinary blaze.
As it was at Seattle so It is In other busy,
rapidly-growing Western towns, many of
which will doubtless realize, only after just
such a scorching, the absolute need and real
economy of enforcing safe building laws, at
least in tho business districts, and providing
fire departments and water supply systems cal
culated to keep pace with the development of
tho place.
The light offerings of bonds have resulted in
a steady lncreaso In tho Treasury surplus,
which, according to the Treasurer's statement,
now amounts to 70.800,000, being tho highest
point reached since October last. Tho pension
payments for tho present month aro estimated
at 18,000,000, and the surplus will be reduced
accordingly. Further reductions are also ex
pected in the fall, when the usual movement of
crops takes place.;

particular change Forest Oil was bid up to

BETTER TEAM THE ATEEAGE.
Oil Drops But Recover, and Clones In Good
,Shnpe.
Petroleum developed a firm undertone at tho
opening of the market yesterday, and the price
soon advanced from 97 to 97 on good buying
here and in New York. Later Pittsburg and
Oil City turned sellers, causing a decline as
rapid as tbe advance had been. Tho lowest
quotation of the day, 96, was made shortly
before the close.atwhich time Oil City changed
its tactics.
This bull movement was responded to by a
prompt rally to 97, at which tho market left
off, with a temper Indicating confidence of as
f;ood or better figures to-day. Trading was
ively, Hut not particularly heavy, and was en
tirely professional. Saturday's clearings were
758,000 barrels. Tho field news was less bearish
than for some time.

STOCKS STBOKGEB.
Tbcv Becln tbo Week With Indications of
n. Boom Prospects of n Money Squeeze
Disappear Some Bis Advnncca nnd
No Declines Bonds Featureless.
New Yobk, August 26. The stock market
opened tbe new week with some animation and
a decidedly strong tone, in marked contrast to
the weakness of last week's trading. The close
of Saturday gave promise of a better feeling
among "traders in regard to both the Western
railroad situation and the monetary prospects,
and there was to-day little pressure to borrow
and the rates for money weut back to as low as
2 per cent. Tho Canadian bankers were offer
ing about $3,000,000 on the street and the Bank
of Montreal about half as much, which cave
Immediate relief, and the impression gained
ground that there would bo no lack of oifetings
from the same sources as lonr- im the hiirh
rates wero in force. Tho London market was ma
terially higher this morning, and nnder the im
F roved circumstances hero first prices were
rom ii to K por cent better than Saturday's
closing figures.
The tone of the market was firm, though lit
tle progress was made outside of the specialties
until tbo afternoon, and usual dullness pre
vailed, though tho improvement in values was
steady with small fluctuations. The bulls
gained confidence as tho day wore along, and
when tbe announcement was made that tho
Secretary of tho Treasury had accepted over
$1,500,000 of bonds tbe bullish feeling becamo
much more pronounced, and tho market
showed it in tbe increased activity and tho
accelerated upward movement in prices. The
specialties felt the stimulus most strongly, and
Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati and St. Louis
made a spurt of over 2 per cent, while the
Coal stocks were specially prominent in tho
rise Jersev Central and Delaware and Hudson
reached still higher figures than ever before in
the history of tbe companies. The movement,
however, extended to tho entire list, and every
thing continued to rise until the close, which
was fairly active and strong at the besoprlces
of the day.
The crop news was still mbst favorable, as
well as the reports of tho earnings for tbo
third week In August. And while there was
little outside support to the market, tbe short
sellers found the market going rapidly away
from them. The filial gains are material, and

Railroad bonds were as dull as nsdal, the
sales of all issues reaching only $662,000, and
while tbe tone of tho dealings was firm in the
afternoon, the forenoon was rather weak. The
market was entirely devoid of special features,

at Washincton yesterday from the American
Consul at Santiago de Cuba: Gherardl, at Port
au Prince, orders me to cable that Hippolytc's
forces, 7,000 men, quietly occupied the town on
tbo 23d. The Minister of War of Northern
force? assures roe ho will permit no rioting,
demonstration or destruction of property. The
French corvette sailed at noon for Santiago do
Cuba, with Legitime, his principal followers
and numbers of refugees. The city continues
quiet. Hlppolyte, Provincial President, en
ters to-day.
W. W. Clemcnson, one of tho pioneers of
Topeka. Kan., who was known throughout the
State, shot himself yesterday. At one timo he
owned much valuable property, but recent
business reverses made him a poor man. He
lost heavily in the famous Price raid of I860,
when the city of Lawrence -tfas bnrned by
gucrrilas. He had appeared as a lobbyist in
the Legislature for the past ten years asking
for the appropriation of S250.000 to pay the
Prico raid claims, maintaining that it was a
sacred debt which tho State was in honor
bonndtopav. Had he secured the appropria
tion he would have been made a rich man.
His faiiuro to do so made him a hypochon
driac. While nothing definite is known of the ex
tent of Cashier Robert P. Halliday's defalca
tion In tho First National Bank of ML Gilcad,
O., which closed Its do Ars Saturday.it Is sup
posed It will reach $25,000. Haliiday on Friday
made a confession to tho directors. He'went,
away on Satnrday, his friends say to Cleve
land, but others think his destination is Can
ada. He has had tbe entire confidence of the
community duringa long business life, but dur
ing tbe past five years has speculated in wheat
and oil. Ho used the bank's money and sup
plied its place by forged notes when an exam
ination was to be made. This attracted the at
tention of thobank examiner, who discovered
that the notes were forgeries.

of the new orange crop from Jamaica put in

THOSE SABBATH APPEALS.
They Are Now In tbo Court's Hands Gen
eral Lesnl News.
Tbe arguments in the cases of the appeals
of John A. Martin, the milk dealer, and
A. J. Kaercher, the druggist, from the fines
imposed upon them for selling on Sunday,
were heard before Judges Stowe and Slagle
yesterday". General Blakely represented
Martin; Messrs. Robb and Fitzsimmons rep
resented Kaercher, and Attorney Yost ap
peared for the Law and Order Society.
In Martin's cases General Blakely argued
that his client sold milk on Sunday nnder
the terms of the law because it is food and
a matter of necessity. Mr. Yost maintained
that, if such is the case, tvery
meat shop, grocery store and every
branch of commerce could do business
on Sunday, as almost everything sold is a
necessity one way or another. Mr. Yost
justified the employment of the boy, Clyde
Taylor, by the Law and Order Society on
the trround that some of the Sunday sellers
would not allow a man in their places, but
wonld look ont for the Sunday school chil
dren to get their missionary nickels. Sun
day school teachers had asked that this be
topped.
Mr. Kaercher's soda water cases were
called next The question here was if Mr.
Kaercher conld be fined twice. He had
been fined by Alderman Tatem before ar
rested by the Law and Order Society officers.
Mr. Yost claimed that he could show that
Mr. Kaercher had procured a man to sue
him, and had talked to Alderman Tatem
about taking the information.
Captain Wishart testified that Kaercher
had admitted talking to the prosecutor
about making the information, and that
Alderman Tatem had taken it as a favor to
him. Alderman Brinker corrobotated this
statement. Alderman Carlisle testified that
he wrote an information against Kaercher
on Saturday night because 'Kaercher had
said he would keep open o Sunday. It
was sworn to five seconds after 12 o'clock
Monday A. M., and the warrants issned
about 9 o'clock Monday morning. The
Court took the papers, and will probably
hand down a decision to-morrow.
Worth tbo Oloney.
John Lyons yesterday entered suit against
Andrew and Mary Ann McCune for 510,
000 damages, fie claims that on July 28,
1888, they assaulted him without any cause.
He was struck on the head with a brick,
knocked down, kicked and hammered, the
end of his linger bitten off and his clothes
torn to pieces. The beating" he received
laid him np for a month.

as to greatly alarm her parents and friends.
She hadT stuffed up condition in her head and

Catarrh is a disease that affects children as
well as adults, and often at a -verv early age.
It Is the direct cause of most of tho consump

diseaso develops into consumption with chil
dren under 10 years of age. The four physi
cians associated with the Catarrh and Dys-'

stndy of catarrh and dyspepsia and diseases of
women. If they can cure you they will frankly
tell you. If they cannot they will as frankly
tell you that. The crowds of patients why
