IKYEKTORS BEST FRIENDS OF WOMEN
Another important transaction in real es
tate was consummated yesterday. "W. A.
Herron & Sons sold No. 139 "Water street,
opposite the new Baltimore and Ohio Kail
road depot, consisting of a three-story brick
building, formerly known as the William
Penn Hotel, with a lot 30x160 feet through
to First avenue, for $30,000. The purchaser,
a well-known capitalist, desired his name
withheld lor tho present He bought as an
investment and will Improve the property.
The sale of Second avenue property at 5S72 a
loot front, as noted in THE DISPATCH yester
day, care rise to considerable comment on
Fourth avenue. A prominent real estate broker
remarked: "Although the property was
knocked down to J. E. McKelvy, Esq., I think
Mr. EL M. Ferguson, President ot the M. A SI.
National Bank, is the real purchaser. It is
known that he has quietly picked up several
pieces on Third avenue, between the Central
and St. Charles Hotels and now he seems to
have turned his attention to Second avenue.
He owns the property on Third avenue abut
ting the lot bought yesterday, and it he was
the buyer, as I think he was, he now has a good
frontage on both streets."
"What does he propose to do with itf
"I am not advised, but think his object is
speculation, as it is the opinion of many that,
owing to the scarcity of business sites on the
main thoroughfares, values on the side streets
will enhance."
The occupant of the property, a woman, was
the next best bidder to Mr. McKelvy. and, it is
said, she was prepared to pay more for it than
it brought, but the auctioneer was too quick
for her.
One of the most beneficent results of modern
invention is the fact that it has opened up new
avocations for women, and given opportunity
for the development of talent that has hitherto
been confined to very narrow grooves. Fifty
years ago when a woman was unfortunate
enough to be obliged to fight the battle of life
alone, about the only thing she could do was to
eke out a miserable existence by teaching
school, being tyrannized over the while by the
school "committee" and subjected to the inex
pressible humiliation of "boarding around."
lint modern inventions have widened her field
and rendered it possible for her to be independ
entto not only make a living, but to con mand
such salary as will cause her to really take an
interest in her work, and not regard it merely
as a make-shirt until some fellow comes along
a ho will be good enough to marry her.
Telephones and typewriters, by the use of
which about 500 women in Pittsburg are sup
porting themselves in comfort, have done more
to broaden the sphere of the "weaker half of
creation and enable them to be self-supporting
than all the laws in the statute books for that
purpose. The Inventor has so far proved the
best friend of woman.
w
The melancholy man is always ready to pre
dict disaster and failure. He says thatwhile
the corn crop last season was enormous, the
prices are so low that in some sections it can
only be used for fuel. He says that the Irish
potato crop was immense, two crops having
been produced during the season in some sec
tions, but that the price is so low that a barrel
of potatoes will scarcely pay for the barrel,
and that many farmers are letting their
potatoes remain in the ground He says
says that there is more iron
on the market than can be sold in two years,
and more houses building than can find occu
pants; that real estate is too high and that
there will be a disastrous reaction. In short,
everything to him is intensely -bine," and there
is not a ray of sunshine to light his path.
If all men were like him the cars would rust
on the track, ships lie listless in port and com
merce sink into a state of chronic stagna tion.
It must be admitted, however, that such men
are necessary and nil their proper place; they
often check wild ventures and act as a sort of
regulator to the more sanguine, and since it is
always safe to prophesy failure, they generally
have reputations as truth tellers.
When business becomes slack, and when it
becomes necessary to economize in the matter
of salaries, the first question that employers
ask themselves is: "Who can best be spared?"'
The barnacles, the shirks, the makeshifts,
somebody's proteges, somebody's nephews, and
especially somebody's good-for-nothing. Young
men, please remember that these are not the
ones who are called for when responsible posi
tions are to be filled. Would you like to know
the probabilities of your getting such a posi
tion! Inquire within! What are you doing to
make yourself valuable in the position you now
occupy?
If you are doing with your might what your
hands find to do, the chances are ten to one
that you soon become so valuable in that posi
tion that yon cannot be spared from it; and
then, singular to relate, will be the very time
when you will be sought out for promotion for
a better place.
LOCAL SECOBITIES.
A Dull Market With Selling Orders In the
Slnjorlty.
The stock market was dull and unprofitable
yesterday to all interested in it. The only sale
was 100 shares of Electric at IS a slight con
cession. The rest of the list showed very little,
if any, changes, bnj; there was a feeling of
weakness all through.
There seems to be more selling than buying
orders. This encourages investors to hold off
in the hope of lower prices. So long as this
condition exists there can be nothing like a
permanent advance. The very fact that selling
orders are in the majority precludes the idea.

business for the season.
There was a fair demand for money, which
was easy at unchanged rates. Heavy depositing
keeps the flow of the circulating medium in the
direction of the banks, and the aggregate of

not affect general trade, however, which is

No Recuperative Power Id the Oil Market
Latest Field News.
There was scarcely enough leaven in the oil
market yesterday to redeem itfrom stagnation.
Oil City scalpers hammered it down in the fore
noon. It was firmer in the afternoon, the
strength seeming to come from New York. The
opening was 81 05: highest, $1 06K; lowest,
81 OiJi; closing. $1 05 Trading was slow and
light. Monday's clearances were 296,000 bar
rels. The hundred-foot district in Butler county is
attracting the attention of oil men to a large
extent, and it is estimated that fully 200 strings
of tools will be running there as soon as the
mud dries. A companv ot Butler men has paid
810,000 for a lease on 100 acres of the Markle
farm, in this district. At Jefferson Center the
well of the McCalmont Oil Company is making
12 barrels a day: that of Simpson fc Co. 24, and
Campbell A Murphy's 18. Two other wells are
drilling there.
Very little stock is taken tn the reported oil
strike at Johnstown, N. Y. There are many
who believe that the well.was salted, but if so
it didn't pan out well, as operators failed to
bite. That section of country has been pretty
thoroughly tested for oil and gas. boles near

SEVERAL STORIES
That Cnnsed Some Lively Fluctuations lu
the Keiv Tork Slock Market-The
Mnjorlty of the Features are
Now Fractionally Higher.
New Yokk, February 4. The stock
market to-day was active, irregular and for
some tinJe feverish, but the general drift of
prices was downward in the forenoon and
upward later in the day, with the result of
leaving the great majority list fractionally
higher than last evening. There was a
variety of news this morning, which had a
tendency to affect values, but the most im
portant at the opening was a story that a
large syndicate had purchased a controlling In
terest in Reading and proposed to oust the
present management. This caused liberal buy
ing by the shorts, and Reading showed some
of its old-time activity and strength in the first
hour and Its price was forced above 40 jand
held there for the remainder of the day.
ino same mnuence. However, was a depress
ing one in Jersey Central, as the arrangements,
according to the story, were to be abrogated,
and that stock fell 3W per cent, rallying only a
portion of the loss. Roik Island was another
Btock which was sharply advanced in the fore
noon, but the effect of the morning rumors
and yarns from Chicago, which included a
report that Chairman Falthorn. was that
Midgely, Walker and Finley had been nnable
to agree upon a new agreement, and that other
roads beside the Northwestern Pacific would
withdraw from the association on February 11.
This canted the bears to put their machinery
to work again, and Rock Island soon lost its
improvement, and the others followed them. It
spread over the rest of the list. However, an
official denial by President Cable of certain ru
mors in regard to the Rock Island and tho
denial of the morning reports in regard to the
deliberations of the chairmen mentioned,
started a covering of tho shorts, and a sharp re
covery took place on the granger stocks and
some others. The short interest is again very
large, and if the rumors of a combination to ad
vance Rio Grande and Lackawanna terminally
higher prices is true, the shorts in those shares
will be torced to the walL The brokers gener
erally reported small offerings of the stocks
this afternoon, and the advances were made on
small purchases, nothing like the animation of
the first hour being seen at any subsequent
period. The trusts were inclined to weakness
to-day, and lead declined stubbornly and rallied
fully. Sugar was weak In the last part of the
day, with indications of inside selling. The an
nouncement that Burlington bad increased its
quarterly dividend from ltolK per cent was
also a material factor in the rise, and Burling
ton kept pace with Rock Island in the upward
movement. There was co set back, and tho
market closed quiet, but Arm, and generally at
the best prices.

A. Larkins, of Parsons,- Kan., who, nnder
the alias of B. Simpson, last April swindled the
Sioux City Savings Bank out of $2,500 by means
of forged checks, has withdrawn his plea of

States House of Representatives, was shot and
killed by Jack Naughton, a man whom he had
befriended for years. Naughtonhad been act

The World's Fair matter came up in the
New York Senate yesterday, upon a motion
made by Mr. Cantos that the World's Fair
committee be instructed to report forthwith
the Assembly bill, but the motion was lost by a
party vote, and the bill was referred without
instructions. This Indicates that no basis of
agreement between the two branches has yet
been reached.
It was recently stated that the British and
Dominion governments are encouraging Baron
Hirsch's scheme for bringing some hundreds
of thousands of RnEsianJews into the North
west; that the Baron will spend 60,000,000 francs
in the protect; that London would be the center
of the movement, and that batches of 600 fam
ilies will come at a time. The Dominion Gov
ernment has heard nothing of the scheme.
The Dublin JZrpress publishes a number of
documents showing the existence of a secret
organization to promote conspiracy against
Mr. Smith Birry, President of the landlords'
syndicate, and other landlords. The docu
ments ask the Irish peoplo to brand as traitors
and to boycott all persons dealing with emer
gency agents, whose addresses are given. They
also show that a vigilance committee has been
appointed in every parish to obstruct the sale
of cattle that have been cared for by cxner-
gency men on farms the tenants of which have
een evicted.

Prices of creamery butter are unchanged at
Elgin. Eggs continue dull and slow at inside
quotations for large lots. There is a better in
quiry for cheese and markets are a shade
firmer. Poultry is in good demand There are
no German cabbage on the market and do
mestic is not coming to the front in very good
shape. Turnips are plenty and dulL Onions
are in active demand at quotations. Choice
apples are not in sufficient supply for demand.
In tropical fruit lines oranges show drooping'
tendencies, owing to overstocked markets.
Advices from New York indicate a glut of
oranges In that market and the effect Is felt
here. Said a representative of one of our lead
ing commission firms to-day: "Weather is too
open and rains too frequent for any great
activity in our line. This kind of weather
takes the life and snap out of people, and there
is little disposition to take bold and push
things."

More Doing In Wheat nnd Prices a Shade
Better Corn Stronger and Oats
Steady May Pork In
Demand.
CnicAGO A good business was transacted in
wheat to-day, and there was moderate action to
the market The opening was weaker and i
o lower, then eased off a trifle more, but later
became strong and advanced c, held steadily
and closed about 4fi higher than yesterday.
The early weakness was attributed to the re
ported increase on the ocean and possibly to
the mild weather here, the predicted cold wave
not materializing. Advices from San Francisco
reported a weaker market for wheat.
The result was that offerings were quite free
and the market ruled easy. Later a steady ad
vance of e followed which was due partly
to a rumor of a large line of wheat being taken
at Baltimore for export, but possibly as much
to some short covering. A good many operators
got short on the decline. One trader bought
2,000.000 bushels for May delivery. Considera
ble wheat was also bought on long account.
Corn A fair speculative business was trans
acted, the market ruling quite active and
weak early In the session, after which it be
came more quiet and firmer. The selling was
quite general early, especially of May and
July, which received the most attention. The
general impression is that there will be a cut
in rates from the West in the near future,
which no doubt induced considerable short
selling. The sharp recovery after the early de
cline was due to the purchases of a large local
speculator, more particularly July. The mar
ket opened a shade over the closing prices of
yesterday, was weak ana sold off 54c, ral
lied and ruled firm, and closed a shade better
than yesterday.
Oats were quiet and steady. About the only
outside business was the selling for May
against holdings in the interior.
Mess Pork Trading was only moderately
active. The feeling was stronger and prices
ruled higher, with trading chiefly in May con
tracts. Prices were not fully supported to the
close.
Lard A quiet and comparatively steady
feeling prevailed, and there were no particular
changes to note.
Short Bib Sides Trading was comparatively
light. Prices exhibited no material change

A CITY ON THE ISLAND.
The Great Project for Neville' Green Spot
la the Ohio Coming to n Head Prop
erty Owners May Not
Agree Just Yet.
Office of Pittsburg dispatch, 1
Tuesdat. February 4, 18Sa J
A meeting of property owners on Neville
Island is called for this evening to take
action on the proposed sale to a syndicate
whose purpose is to divide the island into
lots and make of it a fine suburban village.
The island contains upward of 900 acres ot
very choice garden farms. The estimated
value of the land is not less than $1,000 per
acre. At the back of the movement for
making it a suburban town are such well
known citizens as Congressman Dalzell, W. W.
O'Neil, J. W. Miller and Attorney Christie.
A property holder on the Island who produces
large amounts of garden stuff for our markets
was seen this morning, and gave his views as
follows:
The proposition of the syndicate, through their
attorneys, Christie & Miller, is that the island
shall be laid ont la lots of a quarterof anacre
each, to be sold on condition that a dwelling cost
ing not less than S3, OOO shall be built on the lot.
The syndicate Is to receive 10 percent for Its
trouble and expense In putting the land Into mar
ket and another 10 per cent Is to be devoted to the
bnlldlng or railroad through the length ol the
Island, with 40 feet reserved for that purpose.
This 2) per cent Is to be paid out of the first sales,
letting the land owners In for their share later on.
It Is proposed to connect the Neville Island
Hallway with the Pittsburg and Lake Erie bv a
bridge at the north point of the Island. The
largest owners on the Island are J. H. Plttock and
J. II. Hamilton, who have In the neighborhood fit
SO acres each, what the outcome or themeettnz
to-morrow may be, will be hard to tell. It looks
now as If there would be a hitch. The property
on the north end or the Island Is much more valu
able than at the south end. The syndicate gives
the assurance that the garden farms will be undis
turbed for a season or two.
in connection with this proposed new real
estate deal down the Ohio, there is some very
Interesting local history going back to Revolu
tionary times. Neville Island received its
name from its first owner. General Neville,
whowasfamons in his day as the representa
tive of Uncle Sam against the whisky insurrec
tionists, and before that time had done good
service for God and his native land in the War
of the Revolution. He was the ancestor of the
Cralgs and Nevilles who figured so largely
in the history of this city, and whose families
are still represented in the persons of some of
our present prominent citizens. The Island was
originally given by the Government to a patriot
whose works follow him. Times have changed
since the Nevilles and Craigs went duck hunt
ing on tho island in the closing years of the
eighteenth century. And, from present ap
pearances, the changes of the century ahead
will be even greater than those which Is behind
as to Pittsburg suburban property.

Cured by Cuticura
Our oldest child, now six years of age, when an
Infant six months old. was attacked with a viru
lent, malignant skin disease. All ordinary reme
dies falling, we called our family physician, who
attempted to cure it; bnt it spread with almost In
credible rapidity, until the lower portion or the
little fellow's person, from the middle of his back
down to his knees, was one solid rasb. ugly, pain
ful, blotched and malicious. We bad no rest at
night, no peace by day. Finally, we were advised
to try tho Cuticura Kejiedies. The effect was
simply marvellous. In three or four weeks a com
plete cure was wrought, leaving the little fellow's
person as white and healthy as though he had
never ueea buockcu. in iuj ujimuu, j,ihi ,..-

Boy Covered with Scabs
Mv boy, aged nine years, bas been troubled all
his life with a very bad humor, which appeared all
over his body In small red blotches, with a dry,
white scab on them. Last year he was worse thau
ever, being covered with scabs from the top of his
head to his feet, and continually growing worse,
ithoiiirh he had been treated bv two phvslclans.
As a last resort. 1 determined to try the Cuticura
Kemedies: they did all that I could wish. The
humor rapidly disappeared, leaving the skin fair
and smooth, and performing a thorough cure.
