THE WEEK'S SIGNAL SERVICE EEfOET
Office of Pittsburg Dispatch, 1
Tuesday, Octobers. 1SS9. t
Georce Y. McKee, Couuty Commisftoner,
- having receutly returned' from a six weeks'
tour through Minnesota and "Wisconsin, in
an intervicw'said: "A large portion of Min
nesota, particularly the southern part, has
been subject to drought for three years past,
and this season has been the worst in this
respect. In addition to drought, chinch
bugs hare been a sore pest to Minnesota
farmers for a few seasons past. In the
farming recion southward lrom St. Paul, to
the Lake Pepin region, where a few years
ago immense crops of wheat and, barley
were raised, the farmers hare only planted
small quantities of these staples the past
srason or two, owing to disasters lrom
drought and chinch bugs.
Large in Proportion.
"The yield, however, from the small acreage
sown has been beyond expectations this season
and the quality of grain raised was never bet
ter. The failure of old staple crops for a few
seasons has forced niauy enterprising farmers
to stock raising and the dairy business. The
latter business has had a phenomenal develop
ment in Minnesota and Wisconsin tne past few
years." An illustration of the changes of late
years is furnished by Mr. JIcKee's account of a
visit to Mack Johnston's larm on Lake Pepin,
60 mile south ot St. Paul:
"Mr. Johnston, is a nathe of Jeffreystown,
Montour Run, this county, and about the time
of the Fremont canipaicn concluded to follow
4 Horace Greelej's advice, 'Go West and grow
tin with the conntrv.' On the hieh table lands
overlooking Lake Pepin, near Lake City, he
planted his stake, and has been growing up
with the country there now for an entire gen
eration. A Chance of Products.
"His broad acres for many years yielded mag
nificent crops of wheat and barter, bat ot late
years he has found the dairy business more
prntitaule. The marsh grass w hick crow s spon
taneously on his lands furnishes food sufficient
for his Jerseys, and the butter finds ready sale
in St. Paul at 25 cents per pound."
Mack Johnston learned in boyhood days on
Montour Run, the value of deep ploughing,
and this knon ledge has been dollars in his
pocket during these late seasons of drought
through Southern Minnesota. The black,
sandy, gravelly soil on the highlands east of
Lake Pepin, in the words of Mr.McKee, "when
deeply plowed, doesn't dry out in times of
drought such as that region has lately passed
through, or drown out m wet season0, since
that kind of soil naturally drains itself." With
his 200 acres of land, his comfortable home,
lookinc out on Lake Pepin, a good market for
the product of 15 Jersey cows, the old Alle
gheny county boy on Lake Pepin
Is Better Off Than
the Czar of Russia, who must needs steal his
sleep surrounded by guards he fears to trust
In Central Wisconsin there is the same com
plaint of drought as in Southern Minnesota.
In the region west of Madison for 50 miles or
more crops are generally good, but dairy farm
ins has been resorted to of late years on ac
count of drought. Mr McKee reports that
dunng his visit through that section he discov
ered instances where farmers were compelled
to drive their live stock five and six miles In
order to find water. With our too muchness of
rains the past season it seems hard to realize
that many sections of ourcountryhave suffered
sorely from want of water.
Week's Weather Bulletin.
A W. Greely, Chief Signal Officer. In his
weekly bulletin concerning weather, presents
many facts of interest, from which the follow
ing is culled: Weather during the past week
in corn and wheat regions ol central vallevs,
has been favorable for farm work and securing
of fall crops. Winter wheat is in good condi
tion except in Michigan, where rain is needed.
Brought in this region has reduced the yield of
corn and potatoes.
Through the .Middle and Western States
weather for the week past has been favorable
lor securing crop&. " ""
The first general frost in New England Vas
on the 29th ot September. The yield of pota
toes in New Jersey is good, except on low
ground, where the wet season has been damag
ing to crops. s
Rains during the early part of the past week
were favorable to plowing and seeding in Ore
gon. The gist of the weather bulletin from
signal service headquarters for the week past
is favorable to agriculturists the country over.

Chicago. The wheat market was quiet
to-day; in fact, a dull feeling prevailed
throughout most of the session. Operators
still feel disposed to trade cautiously. Traders
generally have an aversion to selling; that is,
any largo lines, and at the same time there are
no lines of lone wheat on sale. On the other
hand, operators do not feel inclined to take to
the buying side heavily under the existirg cir
cumstances. The liberal receipts in the North
wist acted as the principal bear feature, though
the increase of 248,000 bushels In the quantity
of wheat on passage, as reported by Beerbohm,
where a decrease had been expected, also had
a tendency to create an easier feeling. The
market hero held steadily most of the day, with
fluctliatinns rnnfineri within Mc range, closing
: lower Tor December and c lower for May
than yesterday.
Very little interest was manifested in corn,
which ruled quiet and inactive the greater part
of the session. Fluctuations were narrow and of
a light local character. The market was devoid
of any new features, opened at about yester
day's final quotations, sold off c. closing
lie below j esterday. Cash property was in very
good demand.
For oats, market was pervaded by a dull,
weak tone in all its branches early, and there
was a heavy opening for both cash and futures.
A continuation of yesterday's depression was
all the more remarkable in view of the fret
that receipts were 100 cars less than estimated.
Trading was chiefly in Slay, and fluctuations
were within an extreme range of JffiKc Just
before the close there was some selling for
country account. These offers, together with
considerable throwing off of long property by
local operators, broke May to 22c The slump
was attended with considerable excitement.
In provision circles the October pork deal
again claimed considerable attention. A mo
tion for a revival of the injunction dismissed
by Judge Shcpard has been made in the Appel
late Court. Pending its consideration and
final settlement tho clique has decided to
adhere to its old policy of refusing new packed
pork in settlements of contract. Yesterday
afternoon and this morning its representatives
rciuseu wrcrai muusaca narrcis wmen were
sold "for the account of which it may concern"
at a price ranging from 510 40 early down to
S10 16. This pork was bought up, only by
shorts. Hutchinson, however, accepted a few
lots of the "boycotted" article and under
protest, claiming that right while the question
of the legalit) of the delivery was receiving
judicial consideration.
A good many shorts now believe that the
clique is working tb save time, and by keeping
the matter in court to curtail the making of
pork. Procrastination is charged to be Its
ruling purpose, and that when tho month is far
advanced and packers find themselves unable
to make tho property to meet their contracts
they will be open to a compromise. To-day
October pork sold straight at 59 9510 60. It
opened at 510 50 and closed at 510 05, a fall
of 45c yesterday.
In the general trade a strong feeling pre
vailed, October lard and short ribs, and No

THEY ENOW IT ALL.
Outside Barbarians Still Whacking
Away at Natural Gas.
COLD PACTS KNOCK THEM SILLY.
The Question of Supply One of the Un
fathomable Secrets of Kature.
STATISTICS OF ALL THE WOELD'S FAIKS
Not long ago a Louisville publication,
.moved by envy, no doubt, made the predic
tion that the natural gas supply of-Pittsburg
would soon give out. Impelled by the
same spirit that prompted this utterance,the
Jron Trade Beriew, of Cleveland, in its is
sue of October 3,says: "It requires no close
reading or investigation to convince one
that the natural gas industry of Pennsyl
vania and Ohio is in a bad way. Its rise was
sudden, its profits have been enormous, its
effects upon manufactures have been note
worthy, and its end seems a matter of the not
very distant future."
This is important, If true, and coming from a
source that is supposed to be entitled to credit
for accuracy of statement, it should tfa backed
up by fact, or argument, or something to give it
weight. But it is not It is merely an assertion
of the writer's opinion, backed, presumably,
upon other assertions of the same tenor. All
of them are as far from the truth as it is possi
ble for them to get. There is no evidence of
any kind or quality, scientific, theoretical or
practical, going to show that the supply of nat
ural gas in Western Pennsylvania is giving out,
or will give out this year, n6Xt year, or "in the
not very distant future." It may give out to
morrow, or next week, or next month, or some
other time, but nobody is wise enonghto fix the
date positively or approximately. The dura
tion of the natural gas supply is one of the se
crets of nature which are beyond the power of
man to penetrate. Men of limited knowledge
and vast assurance essay the task for tho sake
of notoriety, but the true scientist rarely ven
tures an opinion on the subject, and then in
such guarded language as to leave the impres
sion that he is not altogether certain that he
knows what he Is talking about
w m
The assertions that the natural gas supply of
Pittsburg Is "in a bad way," "i3 giving oat," or
"will soon give out," are not new. They are
venerable chestnuts. They baye been in con
stant nse by misinformed or envious people
ever since the first well was drilled, and are
likely to be rehabilitated yearly, or even with
greater frequency, for an indefinite period.
Meanwhile the supply is not only maintained,
but is increased by tbe development of new
territory and tbe bringing in of new wells. So
thoroughly are capitalists convinced of the per
manency of the supply, that they are investing
millions of dollars in extending the operations
of established companies or in organizing new
ones for the conveyance of gas from the sources
of supply to consumers in the city. This one
fact outweighs any number of theories, no mat
ter by whom put forth. It shows conclusively
that moneyed men of Pittsburg take no stock
in the cry from abroad that "natural gas is in a
bad way." That they have put their money in
it is the best evidence in tbe world that they
believe the snpply to be permanent
That there are occasional shortages no one
will attempt to deny. But they possess no
more significance than shortages in manufact
ured gas or electricity. They are more fre
quent at this season of tbe year than any other,
and are caused by tbe adjustment of pipe lines
to the winter demand, which grows greater
every year. One of the local companies will
supply between 2,000 and 3,000 more houses
this winter than it did last. This requires con
siderable pipe-laying and plumbing, and while
it is m progress a shortage in some part of the
city for a few hours should be cheerfully sub
mitted to, and not heralded abroad as evidence
that the sunply is giving out. Natural gas has
done and is doing, too much for Pittsburg by
developing her industries and attracting capital
to be treated disdainfully or flippantly. This
should be left to outsiders.
In view of the probability of another World's
Fair in this country, the following statistics are
of interest: The London Exhibition of 1851
covered 21 acres, attracted 17,000 exhibitors,
cost 51,453,970, was pen for 144 days, received
52,530,500 and admitted 6.039,195 visitors. The
Pans Exposition of 1855 covered 24 acres, at
tracted 21,779 exhibitors, cost 55,000,000, was
open for 200 days, received 5010,495 and admitted
5,160,330 visitors. The London Exposition of
1882 covered 23 acres, attracted 28,653 exhib
itors, cost 52,300,000, was opened for 171 days,
received 52,042,650 and admitted 6,211,103 visi
tors. Tbe Pans Exposition of IS67 covered 37
acres, attracted 50,226 exhibitors, cost 54,000,000,
was open for 217 days, received 52,103,675 and
admitted 10,000,200. The Vienna Exposition of

A New York authority reports tbe condition
of the drygoods trade as follows: Cotton goods
have sold well at first hands all the year, and
theie are no accumulations to vex the produc
ers. In consequence of this favorable state of
affairs valnes are, of course, well sustained.
Orders for brown cotton continue to keep the
market well cleared up, and bleached goods
are in almost as favorable a situation, while the
request for cotton flannels continues excep
tionally heavy. Western orders for prints are
in the main satisfactory. Prices have been cut
to some extent by sharp local competition, but
the general market soems not to have been dis
turbed. The export request contrasts rather
unfavorably with the home demand, but of
course more or less business is done in this line
from day to day. Most of tbe important wool
manufacturers have orders enough on hand to
keep them busy for the present, and prices are
steady.
The corn pack of Maine this year will not be
over three-quarters as large as last year, and
not over half as large as in 1887. To this a
correspondent adds: "Assuming the packs of
the less important States to be equal to' the
18S8 pack (but they will fall far below that),
there would be a falling oft this year of 1,189,126
cases." A further estimate puts the total pack
of the United States last year at 2,302,248 cases,
against 3,491,474 m 18S8, 2,311,424 in 1S87 ana
1,704,755 in 1886. Tbe Maine packing in 1ES7
amounted to no less than 750,000 cases. The
writer adds that though It is admitted that the
quality of the Maine corn last year was very
poor, on account of tbe cold and wet season, it
is believed that the output the present year
will be in every way superior.

Electric Recovering From tbe Blow Dealt
by Justice Bradley
Electric was a little stronger yesterday, 20
shares selling at 44. There were no transac
tions In it in the afternoon, but it was held at
47, with 41 bid. The evident determination
of holders not to let it goat a sacrifice has
turned tbe tide, and will soon bring about a
full reaction, Tbe scare Is over, proof of which
is found in the fact that there were more
buyers than sellers at tbe advance.
Pittsburg Traction brought 47, Central
Traction 31, and Switch and Signal 22. Phil
adelphia Gas was fractionally stronger, but the
others were weak. Bank and insurance shares
were strong. The total sales were 181 shares.

PLENTY OP MONEY,
But It Continues to Slick Wonderfully Close
to the Banks.
There was a fair movement in the local
money market yesterday, but no change in con
ditions. There was plenty of tbe stuff which
borrowers could have bad at 67 per cent, or
thereabouts, bnt tbey didn't want much of it
atanypricv The fact Is, Pittsburg manufac
turers and merchants have been doing such a
rushing business lately, largely for cash, that
they have about all the money they need with
out appljing to the banks for it. Still, consid
erable money is being loaned, one way and
another, a good deal ot it for investment in real
estate and mortgages. The exchanges were
heavy, being 52,464,963 87 and the balances
5394,228 47.
John M. Oakley 4 Co.'s New York corre
spondent wired yesterday evening: The money
market to-day was relatively easy, as loans
were almost universally made at 6 per cent,
and brokers with proper collateral bad: no diffi
culty securing all the money (hey needed at
that rate Time loans on stocks are difficult to
make, except for six months, for which period
some loans are made at 6 per cent
Money on call at New York yesterday was
easier, ranging from 4 to 8, last loan 4; closed
offered at 4 per cent Prime mercantile paper,
5K Sterling exchange quiet and heavy
at 54 82.for 60-day bills, and 546 for demand.

OIL IN THE DUMPS.
Narrow Find nations and Very Little Trad
ingWashington Wells Disappointing.
The oil market yesterday was as dull as a
meat ax, trades being tew and far between.
The range of prices was about the same as that
of the. day before, the only material difference
being that tbe lowest price was a trifle lower,
The opening and highest was 99c, the lowest
98c,andthe closing BSJc A. little buying
here and there stiffened prices at the opening,
and a little selling here and there weakened
them at the close.
Washington field news read: The report of
tho oil field is not encouraging. McLeod &
Co.'s well is almost through tbe sand and will
be only a small producer. This well is located
near tbe Zelt, which was a 300-barrcler. This
dampens the prospect of this end of tbe field.
Donley 4 is near tire bottom of the sand and
shows no improvement Wade No. 9 looks like
a small pumper. A. J. Clark's Lemoyne and
Paul No. 2 will be fair pumpers.
The Canonsbnrg field has received a knock
down blow Gladden No. 2, situated near Glad
den No. 1, which was a gusher, is as dry as a
bone. The Canonsborg field is very treacher
ous. College No. 3 and .the Trinity wells will
be in shortly,

STOCKS STE0NGEE.
A Change for tbe Better In Railroad Shnrei
Easier Monoy Revives Business
nnd Gives Values Quito
n Boom.
Sew Yobk, October 8. The stock market
presented a stronger front to-day, and the
stocks of tbe regular list once more became the
leaders, while the trusts twere comparatively
quiet and occupied a much less conspicuous
position in the market than for the past two
weeks. The -change for the better la tbe J
monetary situation was tbe most important
factor in this improvement, and to-day most of
the business done was at 67 per cent, though
loans were made as high as 8 in the forenoon
and as low as 4 toward the close. The strength
of the trusts was the feature of early tradlrg,
aud later there was a heavy drive at the
Grangers, which for a time gave the bears tho
complete control of tbe market After this
was over, however, the whole face of the mar
ket underwent a marknri AhnncA for the better.
I and sharp rallies were in order all over the list
me covering or shorts being on a large scaie
and the buying for the long account was stimu
lated to a considerable extent. The London
market was all higher for Americans this morn
ing, but the opening here was very irreirular,
and while Northern Pacific was up M, Jersey
Central was down 1 per cent
The trusts earlv showed considerable
Btrength, but there was yet. a severe pressure
upon Atchison and the grangers, in which tbe
coat stocks sympathized, and Jersey Central
made a material decline in the earlv dealings.
The full force was brought to bear upon the
Grangers after 11 o'clock, and Burlington and
Peoria especially felt the attack severely. The
attack upon this stock had the appearance of a
drive to buy upon, and while considerable long
stock came out on the decline there is reason to
believe that the heavy lots aimed at which
have been accumulated upon tbe late issue,
were not forthcoming.
The talk of the issue of a large'amouut of in
come to come ahead of the stock helped to keep
the flow of long stock going. When the press
ure was removed the rebound was sharp, and
before noon a portion of the loss had been re
gained. The demand from the shorts made an
active and strong market for the time being,
ampoperators, for a rise, who have held aloof
for aome time back, were again encouraged to
again take, hold, though their purchases wero
made with caution. Chicago turned up as a
buyer of stocks, and this was accepted as evi
dence that the speculative clique at the center
had changed its position upon the market
In the upward movement there were some very
sharp advances made among the specialties,
and San Francisco preferred, which had sold
down to 53 from 69 last evening, recovered to
58. Manitoba also continued its recovery and
sold up to 116, against 111 yesterday, Cotton
Oil displayed the most positive strength, and
followed by Sugar material advances were made
before the close of business.
Burlington did not nnitn rarnver its loss of
' last night's price. The upward movement con
tinued turougnout the afternoon, ana wnne
there was some taking of profits, which carried
some stocks down slightly below tbe best fig
ures, the market closed quiet and strong at or
near tbe highest prices of the day. The final
changes are somewhat irregular, but advances
are in a majority, and while Canada Pacific lost
IJi, San Franciscopreferred gained 6, Cotton
Oh Sugar 2, Tennessee Coal Northern
Pacific preferred 1J, Big Four 1, Missouri
Pacific 1 per cent, and others fractional
amounts.
Railroad bonds were dull as nsnal, and pre
sented a weak front generally, though the deal,
ings were devoid of a feature of interest. The
business done am6unted to only $788,000, and
was without important movement among the
active stocks.

The 6 per cent first mortgage bonds of the
West Pennsylvania Railroad brought 109k in
Philadelphia;
The pumping house of the Pennsylvania
Water Company ( Wilkinsburg), at Wildwood,
will be finished in a few days. The reservoir is
not so far advanced. It is not Known when
water will be turned on.
Tux owner of a piece of ground in the East
End a few days ago authorized a Fourth ave
nue agent to sell it for 6,000, or $60 a front foot.

A Kew York dispatch says: "Most of the
Presidents of the National Banks ridicule the
idea of any tight money and insist that while
there may be a temporary spasm there is
really nothins in tbe situation to 'cause the
slightest apprehension."
A dispatch from Denver says: "The Yan

of creamery are active and firm at outside quo
tations. Ohio cheese is firm at higher prices.
Choice eggs are moving freely at 20c straight.
Apples are in good demand, and a fancy article
brings the outside of markets. The supply of
potatoes is above wants of trade, and markets"
are qniet. Carload lots are selling to-day on
track at 45c per busheL One commission man
reports receipts of 41 carloads this week from
Iowa, Indiana, Ohio and West Virginia. Sweet
potatoes are quiet. Grapes are in fair supply
and steady. Demand for tropical fruit im
proves as temperature falls, and other fruits
wane.

Groceries.
Coffee options were easier in New York yes
terday, bnt packages are unchanged. For a
day or two past the jobbing coffee trade has
been quiet for some unknown reason. Sugar,
too, is qniet, with a lowering tendency. The
Sugar Trust has evidently lost its grip, and tho
prospect is that our sugar will henceforth sell
for what it is worth, and not bring the fictitious
prices which have prevailed for a year past py
the power of trusts.
