BUSINESS NOTES.
The annual meeting of the Switch and Sig
nal Company will be hld this afternoon.
THE Pennsylvania Railroad reoorts that the
quantity of coal and coke originating on and
carried over its lines east of Pittsburg and
Erie for the week ending March i, was 327.273
tons, of which 2S0.33S tons wero coal and 96,915
tons coke.
The Reading Railroad reports that its coal
shipment (estimated) for the week ending
March 8. was 100,000 tons, of which 13.000tons
were sent to Port Richmond, and lu.00 tons
were sent to Port Liberty.
Conservative financiers in New York do not
expect a monetary stringency there. They
think the backs are several million dollars bet
ter off than they were reported in Saturday's
statement.
The Chicago Board or Trade will follow the
example of the New York Stock Exchange.
On March 31 it will discontinue all quotation
service. What adjustment will take place
thereafter nobody knows.
The remarks of President Roberts, in the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company's annual re
port, about the necessity for new capital, are
generally considered to foreshadow a new issue
of Itock this spring.

T. D. Messier Succeeds in Securing a
Foothold on Smithfield Street.
ANOTHER BIG DEAL CLOSED DP.
The Old Story of Scarcity of Business
Property Going the Rounds.
A CANARD 0DT OP WHOLE CLOTH
Another real estate mystery was unraveled
yesterday by Black & Baird. A month or
so ago it was reported they had sold Nos.
411 and 413 Smithfield street, two three
story brick buildings and lot 40x60 to
Thomas D. Messier, of the Pennsylvania
Railroad, lor 580,000. This was an error
both as to purchaer and price. But the
coupling of his name with the transaction
induced Mr. Messier to examine the prop
erty, and being convinced that it was a good
investment he concluded to make the pur
chase, paying $72,500, or $1,812 50 a foot
front. The deal was closed up and the deed
passed yesterday. He will make extensive Im
provements after the expiration of the present
leases, which hare three years to run.
Scarcely bad the above facts been seenred
when the report was encountered to tho eifoct
that Samuel W, Black &. Co. had closed the
sale of a down-town business property for 560,
00a The firm admitted having made tho deal,
but refused to give particulars at present.
w
"I see from the reports of the clearing houses
of the country that Baltimore put us in the hole
again last week." remarked a Fourth avenue
bank officer yesterday. He added: "Baltimore
has been doing an immense grain trade for
some time, but I think the bulk of it is over,
and that from this time on Pittsbury will out
rank her. When it comes to regular business
there Is no question of our superiority. We
have distanced Cincinnati, will soon lead Balti
more, and will then give St. Louis a race. We
are alive and kicking."
The story started about a year ago of a
famine in business sites in Pittsburg is still
going the rounds. It was enconntered a few
days ago in a Baltimore publication. It was
denied at the time, but that didn't prevent
would-be rivals of this great industrial city
from using it for all it was worth; and it is still
doing duty to divert capital from this to other
localities.
There is no scarcity or business sites in Pitts
burg, nor will there be for years to come, and
all statements to the contrary are false, mis
leading and injurious to the city. This class of
property is abundant In every ward and on
almost every street. It abounds in the very
heart of the city, while the suburbs are full of
it. Penn and Fifth avenue extension are lined
with choice business sites. They abound in the
First ward, and range in price from 51,000 to
5L500 afoot front. West of Wood to Ferry
they are rated about the same. On Water
street from Sixth to Wood they are held at
51,500 to 51,800 a foot, and from Wood, on
Water, to Ferry, at $1,200 to Jl,50a
As these are all choice locations, tho prices
named are very reasonable. The lots fronting
on Water street are very deep.
Directors of the Sixth Street Suspension
Bridge will hold a meeting next week to con
sider propositions of the Pittsburg, Allegheny
and Manchester Railway Company. One of the
directors said yesterday that it had been about
settled that the present structure could not be
adapted to railway and other travel, and would
undoubtedly be torn down. The gentleman
thought the fate of the venerable structure
would be practically decided -at the meeting
next week.

Judge Blodgett, sitting in the United States
Circuit Court at Chicago, has decided in a case
brought by The Consolidated Roller Mill Com
pany versus The Barnard fc Leas Manufactur
ing Company, that the roller process patents
mainly relied upon by tho Consolidated Com
pany, being those of Gray, Odell and Bierk
holz, could only be sustained for such special
dovlces as they covered, and that the inventors
entered the field at so late a date that they
were not entitled to have the doctrine of
equivalents enforced in their behalf. "The de
cision will relieve a large number of millers
from the fear of suits for infringment.

S1GKS OP IMPROVEMENT.
Stocks Illove Slowly, Bat n Good Feeling
Among the Brokers,
Stock trading yesterday was of the usual
Monday proportions, sales being 330 shares, Dut
the feeling was strong, which was an encour
aging feature. The market developed no
changes in conditions to make or unmake
values. There is a good demand for nearly
everything, and nothing Is pressed for sale.
Improvement should follow
Philadelphia gas made quite a bulge. but;iost
a part of the aavance. Tne other natural gas
stocks were steady and unchanged. Pittsburg
Traction was the strong feature in its class, 40
being offered and refused. Tho others were
inclined to heaviness. Electric and Luster
were weaker. Switch ana Signal was stronger.
Five shares of Pittsburg, Allegheny and Man
chester Railway ere marketed at 290, the first
movement in it for several months.

OIL STOCKS IKCEEASING.
The Most Bearish Pipe Llae Report la Throe
Years.
The pipe line report for February, posted
yesterday, was rather bearish, showing a net
reduction of stocks of only 174,000 barrels, the
smallest of any month since June, 1SS7, when it
was 142,000. The reduction of certificates was
28.766.
Tbe market was dull from opening to finish,
and fluctuations narrow. Jt was offered down
soon after the opening. Oil City then turned
buyer, and bulled It up to the highest point,
but when this support was withdrawn the mar
ket sagged, but recovered a fraction and closed
abont steady. The extreme fluctuations were:
Opening 94J& highest U, lowest 93, closing
'1 he Sheffield district may redeem itself from
the imputation of being prolific of dusters.
Another good well has been brought in there.
It is Horton, Crary & Co.'s No. i, on lot 196,
which started off at 25 barrels an hour and is
keeping up at that rate.
The gnshers in the Hundred-foot district
have declined to some extent, although the
Wood A Young well has bad its production in
creased by further drilling. The Brown 4
Fisher well is showing for about a 50-harrel
producer, with the drill still going after an
other pay streak. The Fleury well, not far
from the Humphrey farm, is in and dry.
Guffy & Co.'s No. 2, on the Lefever farm at
Bakerstown, reached the sand and filled up
1,500 feet with oil, but has made no flow.
The J. J. Huffman well, back in the country
from Mouongabela City, drilled about a year
ago, has-commenced spraying oil. While the
flow is comparatively light, tbe oil is sain to be
of the heaviest and most valuable quality.
The J. C. Morris No. 3 well in the Mt. Morris
field, owned by E. M. Hukill, which came in at
10 barrels an hour, is an important one. While
not the most advanced well in the extended
belt, it indicates an improvement in tho terri
tory in that direction.
The Transcontinental Association has re
duced oil rates to the West from 51 25 to BO
cents a hundred. This will hereafter be the
new rate not only from Pittsburg, but from
New York, Titusvllle and other oil shipping
points In the East to as far west as the Mis
souri river. It is tbe lowest rate that oil men
have bad for a long time.
The Standard Oil Company has a corps of
men engaged who will at once begin the work
of laying a new eight-inch pipe line between
Lima. O., and Chicago. This new line is made
necessary bythe largely increased demand for
Lima oil, which has outgrown the capacity of
the present line.
MAY BE A BIG ONE.
Tho Ferree Well Sets Some Cornopolltane
Crazy Town Lot Being Leased
for Baring Other Soaih-
Ide Oil-Well Work.
As stated on Saturday, the well on the George
Ferree farm in Coraopolis borough is likely to
make things crack in that village. The capaci
ty of the hole was not known yesterday. It
vomited oil at intervals on the floor of the der
rick, and its manifestations were such as to
make Mr. Ferree several thousandirdollars
richer, if he had chosen to pnt his ground in
the market. People were divided in opinion as
to the probable outnut. The well has not been
drilled in yet, and while somo said she was good
for 25 barrels, others thought she would make
40 just as easily, while the irrepressible talked
of 300 or 400 barrels a day.
While no one could sit down and figure it
out, there were people trying to lease town lots
50x150 feet which would barely give room for a
rig and tank. Some citizens were measuring
their back yards and trying to cut them so as
to make room for rigs.
Since tho Depp No. 2 was struck excitement
bad abated in that section, but the Ferree well
has put everything into a ferment
again. Dorrington & Ewing are still
trying to exhaust the salt water
in Knopf No. L They have pumped with a per
sistence worthy of success, getting enough oil,
perhaps, to pay expenses. They shot the
Scbmid well, near the Knopf, on Thursday,
but the hole has not yet been cleared of the
debris. The owner of the farm, Mr. Schmid,
doesn't seem to have much hope of the well be
ing a payer. Operations on the Depp No. 3 were
frozen up on Wednesday at a depth of 1,520
feet.
In a fow days, or weeks at furthest, Chartiers
station, P. & L. E. R. R.. may be in the center
of an oil districr. A well is going down on
each side of it. One is on River avenue, not
far from the city line. It is being put down by
Hulmes, Criley &. Smith?. The other is the
Urjan well, a few rods above the town, up
Chartiers creek. It is down 1,000 feet.
THIS IS BUSINESS.
Mature Asked to Help Support thePaa
pers ni the County Home,
County Poor Director William H. Guy has
been studying the Ferree oil well at Coraopolis
for points. The reason thereof is that the
County Home directory is thinking of boring
for general results on the county poor farm,
and Mr. Guy was appointed a committee of one
to conduct negotiations with men who ransack
tho bowels of the earth. Both experts and tbe
witch hazel fork state that tbero is in all
burran probability cither oil or gas under the
farm, and either, if developed, would lighten
the burden of supporting the lilies of McKees
port and Sharpsburg. It is said those two cor
porations furnish the bulk of tbe county's
paupers. The matter will likely be definitely
settled at the next meeting of the board.
Mr. Guy has received an offer from a party
which is highly advantageous to the poor farm
management. Tho party offers to drill a well
and If gas Is gotten to sell the well to the Homo
for the actual cost or boring. Should oil bo
rotten the contractor reserves it to himself, all
except the royalty usually given. In case gas
be found the fuel will bo largely consumed by
the Home, and any surplus can be readily dis
posed of.
ASOTHEU ADVANCE IS LIMA OIL.
Result of a War Betvr rea the Standard and
Independent Refiners.
IPPKCIAl. TZXKGBAM TO TUB UISPATCtt.!
FindZiAY, O., March la There was much
excitement here this morning among oil oper
ators and tho prodncers caused by tho advance
In tbe price to 21 cents per barrel by the
Standard Oil Company when its agents found
that the independent buyers were offer
ing 20)4 cents for the product The
advance by the Standard last week to
20 cents per barrel, after having kept
the price down to 15 cents for three years,
was brought about by the desire to shut out tbe
independent buyers in the field, but these gen
tlemen were gamo and this morning raised the
price on the Standard half a cent per barrel.
The Standard then put the price to 21 cents,
but the war is on, and it is freely predicted that
Ohio oil will command 30 cents by Saturday
nignt. thus doubling the price within a week.
There is much feeliug here and tbe oil boom
is on in all its intensity.
Scramble for Oil Lense.
There was quite a scramble yesterday for
leases for oil territory in the vicinity of the
new Gaffy well at Montour. James W. Drape
has leased about 56 acres of his farm, which
adjoins the new. venture, and secured a cash
bonus of 54.000, with a graded royalty from
one-eighth to one-fourth of the oil.

They Boom the Big Conlcr to Get Ont of a
Tight Place Heaviest Trnnsnctlon
Since the Oregon Trnns-
comlnentnl Drnl.
Nf.tv York. March 10. There was little of
the stock market to-day outsido of dealings in
Reading, though a few stocks in sympathy with
that stock showed marked -strength at times.
The fear of tho consequences of tho comple
tion of tbe deal, however, kept the general list
in a feverish and generally unsettled condition
throughout the day, and a raid by the bears in
the last hour upon the easing off of the pres
sure upon the shorts in Reading resulted in
wiping out most of the early gains in the rest
of the list.
The shorts in Reading this morning found
themselves in a tight place, and not since tbe
Oregon Transcontinental deal have there been
such heavy transactions in any one stock, nor
wide an interest taken in any deal. Duringthe
forenoon, at least, the corner in Reading ab
sorbed tbo entire attention of the street, and
out of a total of 171,000 shares listed stocks
traded in over 127,000 were in Reading, and for
the first hour over 50.000 shares of that stock
were dealt in. For the day it furnished 256,440
shares out of 379,693, or about two-thirds of
the entire business in listed stocks. The record
for one stock is certainly eclipsed by this.
A large crowd gathered in the stock beforo
tbe opening, and everyone was bidding with no
stock apparently for sale. The price rose from
3SK to 40. when the bidding for cash lots began,
and, while sales regular way were mado as
high as 41 cash sales were run to 42. and
tbe difference at times was even larger than
that. Tho bidding for cash lots continued very
urgent up to noon, after which there was less
demand lor it nntil 2 p. M., but In the last hour
very little of the stock was sold that way.
Beyond the movements mentioned there was
little in to-day's market, and dullness and stag
nation woro a feverish tone. Sugar was an ex
ception, however, and while it ran off at first, a
material advance followed, most nf which was
retained at the close. Louisville, New Albany
and Chicago was conspicuous for one of its
sharp advances, and Union Pacific and Tennes
see Coal were weak.
Railroad bonds were slightly more active, but
outside of Reading 4s, which, after opening up,
lost all of tbe Improvement, tbero was little fea
ture to the trading. The sales reached 1,324,
000. The tone of tbe market was steady, but
there were a few marked movements. There
were a few losses, and Louisville, New Albany
and Chicago firsts declined 2 to 117, and Peoria,
Decatur and Evansville seconds oK to 66.
The Post says: Of course this heavy manipu
lation of Reading has no reference whatever
to the value or prospects of the propertj', or to
the prospects of the' general stock market. It
is merely the endeavor of parties, who have
got loaded up with Reading, to get rid of it
without loss. To do this they must first put up
the price, and theu try to sell out on each other
for the public will not buy it. The proof of the
artificial character of tbe price to-dav was that
while tbe stock, of which there is 539,500,000,
was selling at 40J& tbe third preference incomes,
of which there are 518,500,000, that come ahead
of the stock were selling at tbe same instant
at36K.
But aside from the Reading manipulation,
there was a stronger feeling developed in the
general market to-day. As mentioned on Sat
urday, Lackawanna is also quite largely over
sold, and the supply of stock in tbe street is
small because it has been absorbed lor invest
ment. The granger stocks are all still oversold
to some extent and now that tbe latest and
most trustworthy information Is that the Chi
cago roads are all likely to come into tbe new
Inter-State Association, the prospects are that
there will have to bo a covering of shorts in
those before long, which will advance their
prices more than the same thing has done in
Reading.
The monetary situation is tbe most serious
obstacle to an advance in the stock market and
while there may not be any very decided ad
vance, all things considered the chances are
largely m favor of higher prices yet in March
than any in Febrnary.

Country Produce Jobbing Prices.
Monday seldom develops any new features in
this department. Snows and rains this mora
ine added to the blueness which ordinarily
characterizes Monday's trade. Ergs are slow
at quotations. Poultry, cabbage and fancy ap
ples are scarce and firm. Potatoes, onions
turnips and parsnips are in Improved demand.
There is very little call for sweet potatoes. The
new crop of maple syrup begins to show up
freely, and prospects for full supplies this
season have been seldom better. Weather of
late has been nnfavorable to demand for tropi
cal frnits. Florida orances are scarce and firm.
Valencias and Jamaicas are quiet. Bananas
are plenty and dull.

There are no new developments in the cereal
situation since oar last reports Wheat and
shell corn show tendencies toward an upward
movement. In the Northwest values of wheat
and flour have advanced within a few days and
holders have grown much firmer in their views.
There has been of late a scare as to prospects
of winter wheat for which tho weather is re
sponsible, and speculators arc making the most
of it in pushing a bull movement. It is many
years since prices of wbeat and flour have re
mained stationary so long as this season, and
bulls, wbose occupation has beengone for some
time, are disposed to make the most of their
present opportunity.

New York, March 10. The jobbing trade
opened encouraging to-day and tbe week prom
ises to be an active one. At first bands, demand
was on about previous scale, replenishing
orders being conservative. The condition of
tbe market was unchanged, goods continuing
to be shipped out as fast as received, and the
tone being well sustained both on account of
the quantity of goods sold and because of tho
still increasing cost of cotton. Print cloths
and some colored cottons are dull and weak
but the general market is not affected thereby.
