THE PrTTSBUEG DISPATCH, ' SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1889
-;
THE STORM IS PELT
In Business Circlesand Has a Ifather
Unfavorable Effect.
MONEY IS OKCE MORE SCARCE,
And There Are Grave Fears of a Stringency
Upon the Market.
IKOX HAS ALSO FALLEX OFF A TKIFLE.
The Eefusal of Wool Jlinufictnvcrs to Buy Wilt Cause
liowcr Trices.
Eepoits to Bradstrcct's and K. G. Dun &
Co. show that the stormy weather on the
Atlantic coast and elsewhere has affected
general business. There is also a possibility
of a monetary pressure.
rfPECIAI. TELKdEAM TO THE PISFATCn t
New York, September 13. Special tele
grams to Hradttrect's indicate that the
storm along the north Atlantic coast, as
well as unfavorable weather in Missouri
and Nebraska, have had an appreciable ef
fect on the distribution of general merchan
dise. In other respects no particular
changes are reported. Itelativcly the great
est activity is said to be at Chicago, Omaha,
St. Joseph and New Orleans.
Mercantile collections are variable. Cot
ton is moving freely in Louisiana, but the
sugar crop there is backward. Early frosts
in Nebrasca have done but very little
daraa;e to the Indian corn crop there. Cat
tle and hogs are dull and heavy. Salmon
are firmer at San Francisco owing to the de
cline in the Alaskan catch.
RAILROAD EARNINGS.
Gross earnings of 121 railroads for August
show a gain of 10.4 per cent over their ag
gregate performance in the same month last
year; but 21 roads out of the whole number
show decreases. Stock speculation is dull
and subject to reactionary tendencies, the
weather diminishing participation and
threatened railroad disturbances creating
apprehension, though the undertone of the
market continues strong and confident.
Bonds are dull and firm. Money at New
York works firmer on a draiu of funds to
the South and decreased bond acceptances.
Call loans 4 per cent Foreign exchange is
high and firm. Demand sterling $4 8SX
4 88. The copper combination in this
country has not been a success, and sales
have been at Jl cent under the price
agreed upon l"c Foreign copper held
here has also been sold at cut figures.
A slight weakness has been unexpectedly
developed in iron markets East, West and
South, as purchasers have been for some
weeks past very liberally supplying them
selves. Production has slightiy increased
since July 1, hut the increase is not suffi
cient to aflect market prices.
COAX. AND IRON.
Preparations are now being made to in
crease the furnace capacity, but it may be
late in the' year before this increase will be
perceptibly felt. Anthracite coal is still
dull and moves slowly, and petroleum has
gone above the dollar mark.
Wheat showed an early advance of JJc on
unfavorable renorts as to grade of new win
ter, unexpected absorption of new wheat by
millers and others before reaching leading
storage points, and liberal orders from mill
ers and shippers for new spring, but declined
later, losing former advance and closing
heavy. The Government crop report was
construed unfavorably. Indian corn was
relatively weaker on unsettling weather re
ports ana heavy receipts.
Exports this week of wheat (and flour as
wheat) aggregate 1,425,552 bushels, against
1,997,219 bushels last week and 2,739,434
bushels in the like week of 18S8. The total
exports July 1 to date are 20,465,324 bushels,
against 23,827,011 bushels last year.
Drygoods jobbers at New York and Bos
ton report trade interfered with by stormy
weather. The volume of business done
necessarily shows a decrease, but the season's
trade is well ahead of last year in leading
lines.
DEMAND FOR DRTGOODS.
At first hands a steady, moderate demand
Is reported, with prices firmly held for both
cotton and woolen goods. Print cloth stocks,
however, are growing, and prices, while un
changed, are weak. The large distribution
of dress goods by New York jobbers is a
prominent feature. There is some improve
ment in woolen clothing.
Raw wool sales are restricted by slowness
oT manufacturers to take hold, but holders
manifest a more confident tone. The new
domestic clip is moving lreely. Raw cotton
is slower of sale at unchanged prices. The
Government crop report is regarded as
bullish. September delivery has advanced
on exhaustion of local stock and sympathy
with Liverpool.
An increasing interest in raw sugar is
caused by a better demand for refined and
stronger European cable advices. Trie gain
is credited to legitimate trade influences.
Prices of refined are well maintained.
Coffee prices have been stimulated by crop
and weather conditions at primary sources
as well as by unusually heavy consumption
in Europe during August. The speculative
advance is7-10c.
Business failures reported to Bradstrcet's
number 190 in the United States this week,
against 143 last week and 124 this week last
Year. Canada had 11 this week, against 25
Iat week. The total of failures in the
"United States January 1 to date is 7,930,
ngainst 7,002 in 1888.
DUN'S REVIEW.
It. G. Dnn & Co.'s weekly review of trade
bays: Scarcely a week has passed since
Government purchases of bonds and heavy
payments made the street certain that there
could be no monetary pressure this fall.
Now people arc talking again abont possi
ble exports of gold, foreign exchange is
liigher and rates for money advance, the
liett commercial double-named paper selling
at 5 to C per cent and prime single-named
at 6 to 7 per cent.
Over 20.000,000 has been absorbed, of
which none has gone abroad and very little,
if any, to the "West or South, and the ques
tion is again just what it was some weeks
ago: "Will the Treasury be able to get
bondsenoughtopreventmonetarypressure?"
Then there was known to be more than $20,
000,000 locked up in bonds held on specula
tion; that resource Has gone, but the addi
tional money has been absorbed by specula
tion in stocks.
STOCK SPECULATION.
Heavy sales of stock on foreign account
have caused a little reaction and raggednes,
but the general average of prices is still
nearly 50 cents per share higher than a
week" ago. The wars of railways do not
cease, but on the contrary are increasing in
number and importance.
The exports of products are remarkably
large for the Eeason, for two weeks 40 per
cent above last year's, but the imports of
merchandise are also very heavy, and the
unrecorded imports of securities returned
from abroad tend to turn the scale. At
every Western end Southern center money
is in fair supply, with a demand generally
good, but brisk" at Milwaukee, and such at
Chicago that an advance in rates is ex
pected. The violent storm has disturbed business
not a little along the seacoast, and affected
purchases for the interior, bat in all other
respects the week has been one of satisfac
tory business. Nearly all interior cities re
port trade as
ACTIVE OB IMPROVING,
and the clearings through all banks outside
of New York still exceed last year's by 2.7
per cent Though the Government crop re
port was thought slightly unfavorable, other
accounts all concur in very satisfactory
views, and the course of trade at interior
points manifests the confidence of local
dealers.
The weekly output of iron furnaces in
blast September 1 was 144,063 toss against,
145,899 August 1, and 125,866 a year ago.
In spite of the increase of 14.4 per cent in
production for the year, the tone of the mar
ket is strong for the best well known grades,
but while such iron sells at (18 for No. 1,
new makers are selling other iron claimed
to-be equally good at 17, and a failure to
sell No. 2 Southern at 515 is noticed.
Bails do not rise; 10,000 tons were sold
dnring the week at $28. The American
copper syndicate appears to have collapsed,
and Lake is quoted at $10 25 for September.
Secret sales here by the Rothschilds arc
rumored. The London strike, preventing
shipmeutSj permitted a corner in tin here,
but the price has reacted to 21 J cents, while
lead is strong at 4 cents. Coal is dull.
THE WOOL MARKET.
The wool market is nominally firm, hut if
manufacturers refuse to bay, the expected
lower prices will come. The grocery trade
has been much aflected by the weather, and
sugar is also weakened by the conviction
that a fall impends. Breadstuff's have been
comparatively inactive; wheat is halt a cent
higher, with sales for the week of only
10.000000 bushels, and corn a Quarter low
er, with sales of 6,500,000 bushels.
Coffee has advanced another half cent.
and oil 2 cents, but hogs and lard are lower.
On the whole speculation in products is
making unusually little disturbance this
year, and the large crops are therefore all
the more likely to go into consumption
promptly and at moderate prices.
The business failures during the last
seven days number, for the United States,
170, and for Canada, 23. For the corre
sponding week of last year the figures were
190 in the United States and 27 in Canada.

rsrscuL telegram to tub dispatch.!
Findlay, September 13. Pittsburg
papers have recently contained what pur
ported to be an interview with Manager
Williams, of the West Park Window Glass
Works, of this city, in which he is made to
say that the window glass houses of Ohio
and Indiana would resume work on Sep
tember 15, conceding the demands of the
workers for an advance iu wages. He
is also quoted as saying that the
West Park factory would start September
15, and that he was engaging meu for that
purpose. The manufacturers of this city,
engaged in the window glass trade, take
strong exceptions to these statements of Mr.
Williams, and say that they are totally de
void of trntb and entitled to'no consideration
whatever. They say Mr. Williams has placed
them lrf.i wrong light before the trade in other
cities. The Dispatch correspondent has in
terviewed all the window glass men of this city
on the Williams statement, and they all unite
in denouncing his expressions as misleading
and calculated to deceive.
J)r. F. V. Firman. President of tho Buckeyo
Window Olass Company, voiced the general
sentiment of tho window glass manufacturers'
interviewed when he said: "The Williams' in
terviews, as reported by tho Pittsburg papers,
arc full of errors. In the first place he says
the West Park Window Glass Works would ac
cede to the demand of the men and start up
September 15, when it is well known that that
factory is not jet under roof; the furnaces have
not yet been started, and it will bo impossible
for it to get started before December 1. Tho
statement that the other Findlay factories will
start September 151s positively without founda
tion. We will all stand firm, and will not .start
a tiro until the wago question is settled by the
committee appointed by the association."
Dr. Firman claimed that the factories could
not make expenses u they should concedo the
advance in wages demanded bv the men, as tho
prices of glass would not justify it. He said
the Findlay factories were now selling glass at
almost cost, and If the present shut-down
should continue till December 1, the factories
would be the gaiccrs, as the surplus stock
would be reduced and better prices would be
obtained. These, statements were shown to all
the Findlay managers, and heartily indorsed by
them as being a true diagnosis of the situation,
and that no fires will be started until the Wage
Committee of the association gave the order,
and not sooner.
AN KPIDE.1IIC OF BUG?.
Bullions of Insects Descend Upon a Portion
of Greene Conntr.
I SPECIAL TELZOKAM TO THE DISPATCH.
Watnesbttro, September 13. A strange
phenomenon has jnst been related here. In the
neighborhood of New Freeport, in Springhill
township, Greene county, on Saturday evening
last, there was a perfect shower of winged in
sects resembling gnats or small winged
ants. As related by an eyewitness
they fell by the million, the occurrence
resembling a snow storm, it being Impossible
to see any distance through the cloud of ani
mated life. William IIoKinson and Albert
Farshall were out on horseback, and both they
and their horses were so pestered by the in
sects that they conld scarcely draw a breath
without inhaling them.
Scores of people saw the phenomenon. In
some places the fall was rather light and in
otbei-i as already described. On Sunday morn
ing the pools of water along tho road were cov
ered with them, the dead ones lay thick in the
road and underneath little clods or stones
myriads of the little creatures were huddled
together.

Ills Grnvo Has Been Desecrated.
isrrciAL TELr.Gr.AM to ins nisPATcn.i
Beavee Falls, September 13. Owing to
certain rumors to the effect that the grave of
William Spencer, the man who was shot at this
place last week, had been opened, and the head
cut from the body, the police went to the cem
etery and disinterred the remains of the mur
dered man. For reasons of their own they
kept the result of their investigations quiet
yesterday, but this morning divulged the fact
that tho rumors were true. When the grave
was opened only the headless trnnk of Spencer
remained in the grave. The police hold tho
theory that the deed was done to make it im
possible to identify the remains, while others
are of the opinion that it was done by medical
students.
