Office of Pittsburg Dispatch.
Wednesday. January 22, 1890. (
The supply of cattle for local trade Taried
very little from that of lest week. Quality,
too, was much the same. "While there was
not enough light, tidy butcher stock to co
round, there was a superabundance of com
mon and low grade stock, and for this grade
markets were very slupreish, and sales were
only made by concessions on the Dart of hold
ers. Export cattle were in good demand at
15c per 100 pounds better than a week ago.
Light, smooth outcbcr stock, such as onr mar
Vets call for, welching from 1,100 to 1,300
pounds, held up fairly well to prices of last
week. All this season there has been an excess
of low grade stock and a scarcity of tidy light
weifrht butchering cattle. Markets here no
longer call for prime heavy weight cattle ; but
prime light weights are in demand, and of this
grade there has not been sufficient on sale to
meet demands ot local trade for months past.
A Lccitirante Itesalf.
While all common and low-grade stock went
begging for buyers this week, choice butcher
stock and export cattle found ready customers
at a premium on rates of last week.
Veal calves were in fair supply ana sjow, at a
Rhaae lower prices than last week. The range
of prices for fresh cows has not materially
changed, but markets are scarcely as strong as
they were last w eek.
A Herr's Island drover reports that cattlo
market this week has been one of the worst of
the season. Said he: "I was lucky to sell the
most of my stock early in the week. Some of
my competitors who did not place their cattle
at the beginning of the week have found them
selves in the soup for a day or two past, and
would be glad now to accept bids they would
have spurned on Monday. The cattle I'sold at
the beginning of the week wero best sold. Since
tbat time markets nave dragged, and a consid
erable amouut of stock remains unsold. On the
unsold stock holdcfs will be happy if they man
age to come out even."
febeep nod Lambi nnd Hoes.
The run at East Liberty was about the same
this week as last, and prices did not materially
change, except for very choice stock, which are
a shade higher. This was due mainly to the
short supply of prime stock. Lambs were m
full supply, and for these markets were
scarcely as strong as they were a week ago.
Supplies of bocs have been ligbt all the week
as compared with the last few weeks' receipts,
and markets were Tery firm at a sharp ad
vance. A carload of hogs was sold this morning at
the Liberty yards for M 10, which at this time
last week would not have brought more than
S3 S3.
At Chicago receipts have been very large tor
a day or two past, aggrpgatmg over 40,000 head
daily, but markets there are firm at a range of
3 803 85. There is an improved demand of
late tur heavy hogs, owing to large export de
mand lor lard.

New Yoke. January 22. Business, as a
whole. Is fair, with relative activity in spring
and summer novelties. The increasing cost of
cotton is attracting considerabjn attention, and
may ultimately enforce a stronger market.
Men's wear woolens were somewhat active a
food business doing in worsteds and low-priced
cachmercs. Numerous buyers of that class of
goods are present.

Wool Market.
' St. Louis, January 22. The outlook for wool
contlnnes discouraging, though quotations are
uwhanged. Very little doing.
A Good Reason.
Dr. J. C. Anthony, of Odell, Neb., says:
"Chamberlain's Cough Bemedy gives good
satisfaction and is a big seller." The rea
son it sells so well is that people who use it
find it so much superior to any other medi
cine they ha,Te ever used that they persuade
their friends and neighbors to try it No
one troubled with a cough or cold can use it
without benefit It does not suppress a
cough, but loosens and relieves it, entirely
freeing the system from the effect of a cold
and leaving it in a natural and healthy con
dition, 5jBa
MAEKETS BY WIBE.
Wheat Slow, bnt Prices a Trifle Better
Corn nnd Oats Firm Hog Products
Improve In Activity nnd Strength.
Chicago Wheat Only moderate business
was transacted to-day, and the market during
part of the session ruled quiet At intervals
there was a fair trade, but the market general
ly was slow. The feeling was a trifle stronger
and prices averaged a shade higher than yes
terday, due in part to firmer cables, reported
small stocks in Russian ports and other influ
ences, such as cold weather In the West and re
ports of too much rain in California. The mar
ket opened a shade firmer and sold toHSK0
above yesterday's closing, eased off K!40 and
then improved )Jc. ruling steady and firm,
and closed c higher than yesterday.
Corn Then was a moderate speculative
day's transactions early In the session and the
feeling prevailing was firmer, vtter which the
market becamb qmiet and easier. There ap
peared to be some buying orders on the market
from the outside, and in filling the same the
local crowd became sbort and on their cover
ing prices were advanced. Domestic markets
were relatively Arm.
Oats were quiet but firm. The arrivals were
quite small and the effect of this was quite visi
ble In a ligbt sample trade. Rather a firmer
speculative feeling prevailed and in some cases
prices show some little improvement at the
same time flucuations in prices continue too
narrow to attract attention. In consequence of
the iew changes in values it was difficult to ex
ecute orders, when limits were at any distance
from prices lately prevailing. There were mod
erate .sales for May delivery and trading bad
the appearance of being largely on local ac
count There was some little business in near
futures at Jjc advance, but other futures were
neglected.
Hog products Considerable strength was
manifested in the market for hog products and
speculative trading was moderately active.
Opening markets, both domestic and foreign,
exhibited considerable strength, and the re
ceipts of bogs ere liberal, but selling at higher
price". The receipts of products were fair and
the shipments tjuite liberal of all descriptions.
Under these circumstances the market for
products attraeted more attention and higher
prices were realized for most descriptions. Lo
cal shorts purchased rather freely more par
ticularly two quite prominent speculators
while the offerings were not very large. Thero
was a little realizing by parties wbo purchased
a few days ago, but tho resources from that
source were only moderate. May deliveries
met with most favor, though the near deliver
ies of some articles were a little more inquired
for.

A THIEF OP TIME AEODND.
Mr. Procrastination Went Through a Law
ycr's Office Yesterday.
Shortly after noon Tuesday W. A. Sire,
Esq , came into his office on Diamond street,
laid bis overcoat and hat on a table, and then
went into an adjoining room to look after
something. He was not cone more than two
or three minutes. During bis absenceie beard
some one enter the office, but paid no attention
to it supposing some client had called. When
Mr. Sipe returned he found the supposed client
had gone out, and. missing the tick of a valu
able eight-dav clock he cast his eyes to the
mantel, and it wasn't there. He started out.
and found the janitor of the building who
stated tbat he saw the thief go out with the
clock, and the bell thereof was keeping up con
siderable of a jingling, but the thief was so
cool that the janitor supposed he had a job to
repair the clock, aud interposed no objection
to bis departure.
An overcoat was stolen from one of the offices
in the same building early in the winter, suppo
sably by the same thief, wbo either does not
find overcoat stealing profitable this mild sea
son or who is trying to fit himself out for house
keeping, as there would have been much less
risk in taking Mr. Sipe's coat yesterday than
the clock, and the garment was a good one, too.

HANI BUSINESS MEK MSAPPOIHTED
There was unnsnal activity in real estate
circles yesterday, several important transac
tions being closed up and others reported in
various stages of completeness. The Br.
Daly property, corner of Cherry alley and
Sixth avenue, lot 27 by 90, with a three
story brick dwelling, was sold for $22,000,
presumably to the Pennsylvania Railroad,
although Messrs. Black 4 Balrd, who are sup
posed to have managed the deal, would neither
affirm nor deny the report
The same firm acknowledged another trans
action in downtown business property involv
ing about $90,000, but said details were not
ready for publication. One authority said the
property in question was that which is occu
pied by Mr. J. B. Youngson, but others denied
it, leaving the Identity of the site in doubt It
is known, however, that negotiations for the
last named property are on foot It was sold
sometime ago, but one of the four heirs
thought the price too low, and refused to sign
the deed. Another report in this connection
was that Mr. D. O. Barr had purchased of S.
Beymer the lot at the corner of Fifth avenue
ana Neville street, 250x450 feet with a good
dwelling, for J75.000. While this may be the
transaction referred to by Messrs. Black &
Balrd, information from other sources leads to
the conclusion that it Is in no way mixed up
with tbat deal, and tbat the latter sale was
made through the W. C. Stewart agency. That
gentleman, however, bad nothing to say when
approached for information.
Several other transactions remain to be
noticed. W. C. Stewart sold another piece of
the Hutchinson estate, a fraction over an acre,
forSll.000. He also found acustomer for twolots,
each 50x200 feet, situated near the Hutchinson
property, for which he got $5,000 each. They
belonged to Alexander Murdoch. The pur
purchaser was Robert D. Totten. Mrs. Ewart
Chessman paid $30,000 for a lot 15x60 feet, with
a three-story brick building, No. 403 Smithfield
street It was sold by Biddle Arthurs, Jr., as
executor. The reported purchase of the White
property in the East End by William Mooney
for $90,000 was premature, but it is on the
string, and will be closed in a day or two.
House-renters are already out in full forco
impelled to effort by well-grounded apprehen
sions of a famine about moving time Indeed,
the demand is already greater than the snpply,
and this inconvenience is certain to increase as
the season advances. On this subject a member
of the firm of Charles A. Somers & Co. said
yesterday: "I have never known such an
urgent demand for houses so early in the
season. There is a perfect rush for them; and
the most of it is, there are not half enough to
go round. We have booked between 200 and
300 applications in the last two weeks, but the
orders remain unfilled, for we can't find
the houses. The demand at present is
largely in favor of the Old City, Oak
land and East Liberty. Ultimately, how
ever, people will be compelled to accept
places wherever they can get them. Small
and medium-sized houses have the call, but
later on everything will go if the rent can pos
sibly be met The bulk of the demand is from
outsiders people attracted to the city by the
prospect of steady work and good pay. Very
few of those occupying houses will be willing
to give them up. They are disposed to put up
with a great many inconveniences rather than
run the risk of faring worse The result will
be that the majority of the new-comers will be
compelled to build. So what appears on the
surface to be a misfortune may be a blessing in
the end. Manv people will acquire homes who
would otherwise remain renters all their lives,
and the city will expand."
"Is there much inquiry for business houses?"
"Yes. Look at this," and the gentleman ex
hibited a long list of applications. He con
tinued: "These are not all Pittsburg people,
either. Here are names well known in Balti
more. Philadelphia, Cincinnatiand othercities.
Last year's prosperity of Pittsburg made a deep
impression upon the business men of the coun
try, and many of them desire to establish them
selves here to improve their fortunes, but I am
afraid the most of them will be disappointed,
as it will be impossible for them either to rent
or buy such houses as they want This state of
affairs is not very creditable to Pittsburg cap
italists, and it is a positive hindrance to the de
velopment of the city. With ample facilities
for the transaction of business and enough
tenements to shelter all who desire to cast their
lot among us, Pittsburg would grow at a rate
that would lay all past achievements In that
direction completely in the shade. This is a
matter which onr public-spirited citizens should
take into serious consideration. Increase o
population and expansion of business cannot
reasonably be expected in the absence of neces
sary accommodations."
STOCKS SLOW,
Bnt a Good Undertone Indicates a Belter
Time Coming-.
A light business was transacted in local
stocks yesterday, the sales being 237 shares, and
the feeling, taEen all around, was weak.
Changes, however, were for small fractions,
and were about evenly divided between ad
vances and declines. Central Traction was
slightly weaker, but the others about held
their own. Philadelphia Gas went off a trifle
in the bidding, bnt was not offered to any ex
tent Pittsburg Plate Glass and Switch and
Signal were stronger. Pleasant Valley was
offered at the close at 23. with 22 bid.
The good prices realized at the auction sales
on Tuesday caused brokers to be a little cau
tious yesterday, lest tboy should be accepted as
market values, which is not the case. The fact
Is the buyers for tho most part were people who
had money to invest, but would not do so
through regular brokers. This left them at
the mercy of the auctioneer, whose duty It was
to get all he could. They could have done bet
ter in the regular way.

The oil market opened rather tame yester
day, although at the highest point of the day.
New York and Oil City furnished about all the
strength the market developed. The former,
however, bought very little. Pittsbnrg was a

In the Washington field tho Fergus and
Hazlett Le Moyne No. 1 is at the top of the
sand, with a good showing. Aiken & Gilbert's
No. 1 is completed in the sand and will be a fair
well. Their No. 3 was filled uo quite largely
from the stray. Hart Brothers and McDanTel's
well Is good for 15 barrels in the Gantz sand. No.

from the Gantz, and tho No. 1, which came in

AGGEESSIVE BULLS.
They Increase in Numbers and Talk of an
Advance In Railroad Shares The
Trusta Active nnd Sugar
Stronsssr.
Nbw York. January 22. Tho stock market
was active to-day at both ends, with a long
period of dullness and a near approach to stag
nati on between, though such movements as
were made in that time were in the direction of
lower figures. About three-fourths of the bus
iness done during the day was transacted in the
first halt hour and the last 45 minutes, A
marked feature of the trading, however, was
that when the market was active prices ad
vanced, while dullness bronght a drooping
tendency and stagnancy. The events of the
day go to show that the bull party has quietly
acaulrcd strength of numbers, and tho talk on
the street is more confident of an advance all
along the line.
The covering movement of the past two days
was still under way at the opening, but tho
early demand was soon satisfied, and as the
buying for the short account ceased, the market
became dull and stagnant. The bears did Borne
hammering in a feeble way, but with only
small fractional results, and they soon ceased
aggressive operations. j.ne temper of tne
room continued dull, even under the discour
agement of extreme dullness and the talk that
money was assured of ease for at least two
months, while the railroads were sure of large
earnings.
The cold snap was favorable to the coal
stocks, and neither Reading,Xackawanna nor
Jersey Central got below the opening figures,
while many of the other leading shares before
delivery hour were fractionally lower. The
afternoon rise was started by the specialties
with a very heavy trading in Missouri Pacific,
the Coalers, St, Paul, Sugar Refineries and
Union Pacific, the last named being favorably
affected by the report ot the Government di
rectors. '
Everything reached its highest price far the
day and the movement was kept right up to the
close, which was active and strong. The trusts
were fairly active and Sugar was strong. The
buying was liberal in the last hour, however,
and with the regular list it mounted to the best
prices for nearly a week. The active stocks
are almost Invariably hlgber to-night.
Railroad bonds were again moderately active,
and. although the transactions extended to an
unusually large number of issues, only one,
Texas Pacific seconds, showed any special ani
mation, furnishing $103,000 out of a total of
ii,ttn,wu. xne movements were smaller and

Business Notes.
With the exception of real estate, business
on Fourth avenue was rather quiet yesterday.
Readikg reports decrease in coal tonnage
for last week of 10,533 tons, and for the year
88,213 tona.
The Daily Stockholder prints a bullish Inter
view with Jay Gould, who says Missouri Pacific
earned over 1.000, 000 net in December.
Of 35 mortgages recorded yesterday, the
largest was for 550.000, Daniel O. Barr to S.
Beymer, purchase money. The three next
largest were $19,630, S17.000 and SIO.OOO.
Alt, surface indications show that the New
York wholesale dsygoods house seeking acen.
tral location in Pittsburg is that of H. B. Claflln
A. Co. Its representative bad not, however,
made bis appearance on Fourth avenue up to
yesterday evening, so far as could bo learned.
A prominent New York broker Bald yester
day: "There is stagnation in the stock market
now, but I believe it will be followed before
long by increasing activity. The stagnation
does not necessarily mean lower prices.al thongh
it is certain that good stocks are not selling be
low their merit. It Is plain that holders of
good stocks are not inclined to sell."
The lungs are strained and racked by a
persistent cough, the general strength
wasted, and an incurable complaint oiten
established thereby. Dr. Jayne's Expecto
rant is an effective remedy for coughs and
colds, and exerts a beneficial effect on the
pulmonary and bronchial organs.

Country Produce Jobbing Prices.
The first effect of the cold snap has been
quieting to markets. Buyers thus far are ap
parently hugging the stoves,and produce houses
along Liberty street present an air of sabbatic
rest. Very little stuff is moving. Poultry is
firmer, as a result of the drop of tho mercury.
The first strawberries ot the season from Florida
are offered the past few days at 65 to 75c per
box in a wholesale way. Lemons are as high
now as In midsummer. Fancy apples are firm
at quotations. Cabbage are steady; onions
scarce and firm. Potatoes are unchanged, but
good stock is firm.
