STEEL AND TARIFF.
Braddock Able lo Compete With En

ACCORDING TO AN IKON EXPERT.
Products of Homestead Works largely
Bought by tlie Government.
WIBE SAILS AND BARBED WIRE DULL
OFFICE OF PlTTSBUKG DISPATCH,
Tuesdat. March 4, 1S90.
Toe question of reducing tariff on steel
rails is regarded by some as of no practical
importance in the present condition of trade,
as prices are fully as high in England as in
the United States. It is somewhat difficult
to get at the actual cost of making steel rails
at the Edgar Thomson "Works, but when the
market price was 2G per ton, as it was last
summer, there was certainly a fair profit to
the manufacturer. The advance in the past
six months has been close to $10 per ton and
the increased cost of making in that period
lias been abont $3 per ton. The increased cost
lias been m coke, ores and tonnage labor.
An expert in steel making recently expressed
the opinion that, even at tlie increased cost of
materials and labor, steel rails could be pro
ducea at Braddock under S20 per ton. The
highest estimate ot the cost is S23. leaving a net
profit to the manufacturer of ?12 to SIS per ton
When it is remembered that the output of the
Edgar Thomson is about L200 tons of finished
steel rails every 24 hours, it is plain that money
is being made.
The assertion is made by the expert quoted,
without fear of contradiction, that steel rails
can be laid down in Liverpool from Braddock
and sold there at market prices at a profit of
$10 per ton a condition of things unprece
dented in this industry The advance on steel
rails in Great Britain the past six months has
been fullvoOner cent greater than it has been
in the United Stiles. v o aro fully able to
hold onr own In the world's markets against all
competitors in the manufacture of steel rails.
Mccl Products nt Hoinmlcnd.
Interviews with ome of the employes of the
Homestead Steel Works have developed a rew
facts which are here jotted down. The Home
stead works, unliko those of Braddock, are
turning out a great variety of steel products,
such as boiler plate, beams, channels, aneles,
and in fact cverj tning in the line of structural
rfn.1 Tlirno flmncnnil Tnna rprA rnrtnOifrl
from these works for the great Chicago Andi-
tonum. The works are at this time filling a
large contract for the new St. Paul Opera
Ilouc, in processor construction, ueside tms,
supplies of everv description, in the shape of
angle' and channels, are being furnished for
the new Government cruisers in process of con
struction at Philadelphia and San Francisco,
fho output of plates for the past few months
has been about 5,000 tons per month.
In the month of January 4,000 tons of the
finest boiler plate were produced at Homestead.
The verj highest tests on boiler iron are those
demanded In the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad,
and the Homeead plate was equal to this test,
as it called out some heavy oi ders from that
company. The margin of profit on boiler plate
is narrow. On structural steel thero is a good
profit. The price of the latter is quoted at 135
per toe
A pleasant feature of the situation at Home
stead to the w orkmen is that on the acceptance
of the recent scale it was agreed that the works
wonld be run for three years. From present
outlook there will be demand sufficient for all
that can be produced for a year or two ahead.
Mnall Profit on Bnrbed Wire.
"While thero is a comfortable margin on rails
and structural steel profits of late have been
obliterated in some lines of steel and iron pro
ducts by the increased cost of materials.
Barbed wire and wire nails are among the arti
cles which are now produced with a very nar
row margin of prolix
Said a representative of one of onr largest
rolling mills recently: "We aro selling some
lines of products at a loss, but find it necessary
to do this in order to hold the trade in other
lines where there s profit. And, in addition to
this, it would be more expensive to stop than to
goon. We work on in the hope of a better
day. If we can hold on long enough the better
day is sure to come. '
'"The manufacturer of barbed wire, bar iron,
cut nails and wire nails, who is not well heeled
and prepared to work without profit if need be
for a year or two, is likely to encounter snags.
In these departments of our iron and steel in
dustries we are likely to hare some practical
demonstrations of tne Darwinian doctrine of
tho survival ot the fittest in the near future."

Chicago Wheat There was an activo
trade again to-day and the feeling developed
was unsettled and decidedly nerous. Higher
prices ero reached, bnt tlio full advance was
not sustained. The opening was about the
same as the closing yesterday, ruled strong and
advanced ?ic, then with "some fluctuations
declined c, ruled stronger and closed ip
higher than yesterday. Shorts covered very
freely, and one prominent trader, who of late
has figured on short side, it w.ts claimed bought
heavily.
A good aeil of realizing was indulged in, and
had it not been for the desire on the part of
the longs to take their profits, prices would
have reached a still higher range. Last cables
quoted a firm feeling and inodeiate demand,
with July and August deliveries a trifle higher
and the rest unchanged.
Corn There was very little interest to note
in the market, and trading was dull and
dragging the entire session: the unaertono was
weak and had it not been for the firmer feeling
in other speculative articles, the market no
doubt would have sold lower. Transactions
were in the main local, but few outside orders
being on the market and nuctuations were
limited to Jic range, closing 'AlAc lower than
5 esteraay.
Oats were slow and steady and without new
features of special importance. The offerings
were not large and the demand not of a charac

Mess Pork Only a fair trade was reported.
Karl the feeling was stronger and prices sold
2ic higher. Later the offerings were slightly
increased, while the demand slackened and
prices settled back again and closed steady at
inside figures.
Lard A stronger feeling was manifested
earlv in the davand a lew transactions were
made at slightly advanced prices. Later an
easier feeling was developed and prices receded
again and closed quiet.

No Danger to This Generation of a Famine
in Good Buildins: bites.
STATUS OF THE SUSPENSION BRIDGE
As an illustration of the activity in real
estate, it may be stated that the College
place plan was put in the market last fall,
and since December 1 "W. A. Herron &
Sons report the sale of the entire front on
Filth avenue, being in- all 437J4 feet The
lots were all sold iu large pieces through to
Arabella street, and the purchasers intend
building fine residences thereon In the near
future.
Mr. O. M. Edwards purchased tho ground
three years ago, being about five acres, and
now holds the Hono street front for sale in
lots, the Fifth avenue front having been dis
posed of.
The result of the negotiations between tho
Pittsburg, Allegheny and Manchester Railway
Company and the Suspension Bridge Company
will probably be a new structure. A stockholder
of the former corporation said yesterday: "I
think something definite will be done as soon as
tho board just elected by tho bridge company
organizes and gets settled down to business.
My idea is that the present bridge will be de
molished and an entirely new ono built,
"It will be as nearly as possible a continua
tion of Sixth street, so as to accommodate the
railway and afford plenty of room for travel.
There are great difficulties in the way of span
ning the river at any other convenient point,
and I am confident it will not be attempted."
Some persons have expressed fear lest all the
land in and around Pittsburg shall be bought
up by capitalists and held at such prices as to
render it impossible for working people to ac
quire homes. In regard to this matter, a prom
inent real estate broker said yesterda): "There
is no danger of such a result. Capitalists are
the smallest buyers. At least 75 per cent of the
sales are made to working men. This is the
best feature of the market. As to supply, it is
nractically limitless. It will not he exhausted
by this generation, nor the next. There are
thousands upon thousands of unoccupied acres
on all sides of the city.
"These vast tracts are being made accessible
by rapid transit, and will ultimately be thickly
populated. Twenty )ears ago Shadyside and
Roup were regarded as rural districts. Now
they are abont tho center of population. Cable
and electric cars are reducing miles to minutes.
Many working people live seven or eight miles
from their places of business, but find no diffi
culty in arrivintr on time. The same result will
attend tho opening of new districts."
The $165,000 real estate deal, about which so
much has been said, and so many guesses made,
was closed up yesterday by Black A Baird. all
the paners beipg passed in the following man
ner: The Caldwell property, 45 by 85. on Fourth
avenue, was sold by them through w. A. .Her
ron fc Sons for $90,000. The property in tho
rear, on Third avenue, owned by John Hill. 20
by 85, was sold by Black & Baird for $24,500.
The Thompson property, on Third avenne, 40
by 85. was sold by Black & Baird, through S. W.
Black A Co., for 850,000 the three transactions
making a total of $164,500.
The purchasers are the same in each case,
being the Times Publishing Company, of which
Mr. C.L. Mageo is the head. The company
will proceed at once to erect a ten-story build
ing for their own ana general office purposes.
A counterfeit $2 United States Silver Cer

ance of the note is very bad. The Vignette of
General Hancock is exceptionally poor, and
the background very scratchy. In the counter

the figure "2," the geometric lathe-work is not
discernible, while in the genuine it is very dis

vignette of Hancock, is very indistinct, and it
is omitted altogether on the right end of the

very indistinct
On the back of the note lathe-work is so

Pittsburg was incorporated as a borough
April 22, 1794. A census taken six years later
showed a population of 1,505. It became a city
in 1816. The first Mayor was Ebeneier Denny,
who held office ftoin July 9, 1S1C to July 23.
1S17. At that time Councils elected the Mayor
from the Board of Aldermen. Mr. Denny had
been an army officer. His descendants aro nu
merous and prominent
Tomas Liggett is having new offices built
for the accommodation of his real estate busi
ness at No. 71 Diamond streetwhere he intends
having quarters as bandsomo as any in the
city. Mr. Liggett has been on Fourth avenne
for the past ten years, but is of the opinion
that Diamond street will be equally as good a
business place while much less expensive.

ACTIYE AND WEAK.
Considerable Dolnc In Oil, but Quotntlons
Continue to Rpccde.
Weakness and activity were the features of
the oil market yesterday. Opening at 94c, it
soon broke to 93c It then sold np to 95c,
from which it weakened gradually on Bradford
selling, until just before the close, when it
scored 91 A quick rally ensued on Pittsburg
and Oil City busing to 93c This was followed
by a slump to 92c bid and 92c offered, which
were tho figures at the finish. The extreme
fluctuations were: Opening, 91c; highest, 95c;
lowest, 913c: closing, 92c.
There were no specially bullish features, the
pykers and scalpers affording all the support
the market had. Considerable oil was handled,
and there was a great deal of noiso toward the
close, reminding one of old times in everything
except business.
Well No. 2 on tbo Ferguson farm was drilled
deeper, and flowed at the rate of. 800 barrels a
dav. It has made over 2,200 barrels In the last
three days.
No. 1 of the Hnndred-foot Oil Company, on
the Jacob Damback farm on Big Creek, struck
the sand and started flowing at 25 barrels an
hour. It is located about 400 feet east of tho
big Lockwood gusher, that has increased its
output to 750 barrels a day. There are now
eight rig- going up on the Dambacli farm.
Wood & Young's woll, close to the Dambacli

closo to the Dambach, and a mile north of the
Cable well, and will start at once to put down a
well. Guckert & Co.'s No. I on the Knauff
farm is making 50 barrels a day.
In the Washington field, Wesley Webber's

stands full of oil from the Oantz sand. The
Washington Oil Company's No 2, on the Cross
land farm, is showing for a 40 barrel well in the

RAILROAD EARNINGS
Continue 10 Show n Lnrco Increase Wlthont
Helping Shnrcs An Off Day With
Few Changes In Valncs.
Nkv York, March 4. The stock market was
again very dnll to day, especially for the regu
lar list though the Trusts showed a littlo more
animation at advancing prices. Tlie news of the
day was not of an especially important naturo,
but the reports of railroad earnings continue to
show a large increase, both in gross and net.
As a whole, the railroad business exhibits
greater prosperity than ever bcroro enjojed.
The foreigners were doing very little to-day,
bnying some Louisvillo and Nashville and sell
ing a little Union Pacific and St Paul. The
bears initiated the dealings by a drive at values
which resulted in small fractional declines, bnt
although Union Pacific, St. Paul and others
wero made the special objects of tho attack,
buying orders appeared in them, and tho bears
gave it up and went into cover.
With the edssation of the pressure, however,
dullness became the ruling feature and stagna
tion settled over the entire market relieved
only at times by sncclal movement in a few
shares. Western Union and Missouri Pacific
showed considerable weakness, whilo Wabash
was strong. The attack upon Western Union
was continued.
One of tho strongest points In the list was
Wheeling and Lake Erie preferred, which
made a marked advance. The movement al
though originating in London, was helped by
the report tbat its new connection with the
Baltimore and Ohio would soon be completed.
The Trusts were all more active and strong,
but Sugar failed to hold its improvement Lead
rose on a rumor which painted to the success
of the reorganization plan. The market finally
closed dull and stagnant at insignificant
changes from last night's prices, tnough most
of the list is higher. Wheeling and Lake Erie
referred rose 214. Manhattan 2. and Pullman,
which was bought upon the decisions in the
West favorable to tho company, 2 per cent
Railroad bonds were quiet to dull, and while
tho market exhibited larger character, the gen
eral list being stagnant as usual of late, thero
was more movement among the bonds dealt in
and some material changes for the day were
scored. The sales reached only 935.000, with no
special activity. The advances included Syra
cuse. Binghamton and Now York firsts 4K to
1 35) New York and Northern seconds 2 to
54, and bhenandoah Valley firsts, certificates. 2
to 118.
The .Poji says: The favorable report of the
St Paul 111 showing an increase of 14 per cent
in net earnings for January over the same
month of 1SS9, and an increaso of nearly 7 per
cent in the gross earnings for February, un
doubtedly helped to strengthen that stock, and
in connection with the increase of 9 per cent
in the February gros earnings in the North
western and tho great increase of 81 per cent
in the Jannarv net carnlnirs of the Bmliiigton.
puts a very much better complexion on the
granger situation than is reflected in tho flood
of rumors ahout cuts and rate wars tbat are
continually received from Chicago.
The easier condition or the money market is
however, another important factor in tho
stronger tone of the stock market Money is
lower now in London thau it has been for a
month or two past, and while tho high rates
continue here, there was some heavy selling of
bankers bills to get money which caused two
reductions in tho rates of exchange last week
aud one yesterday. But now that the appte
bensions about the money market here have
been relieved by that means even though no
gold was imported, exchange was up again to
day. 'Ine roiiowine table shows tne prices or active
