Office ofPittsbckq Dispatch.
Tuesday. March IS, 1S90. J
There is but one company in Pittsbnr?
engaged in the manufacturing of safes,
which is well known to the business world
as the Barnes Safe and Lock Company. An
interview with the founder of this company,
who established the industry in the year of
the great fire of 1845 when Pittsburg
merchants wakened up to the necessity of fire
proof safes, developed some facts of interest as
to the present situation and outlook of this
heavy-vi eight industry.
When Mr. Barnes first began to manufac
ture safes, f orty-hTc years ago. it was a day of
small things. The article in this line called
for at that day, ould easily go inside of tbo
present offico or bank safe and have room to
spare. The writer who was a small urchin
when the first safes were manufactured in
this city, remembers one which was placed in
a Liberty street offico between 1815 and 18.50,
which struck him as something Immense. Tho
same would bo a mere baby alongside of the
average safe now turned out of this establish
ment. Tho number of safes turned out by the
Barnes Company in 1SS9 reached 0.000, and a
low estimate places the average weight of theo
safes at a ton each. One recently manufactured
for the Citizens' Bank, of Johnstown, weighed
ten tons. Orders last year came from Maine.
.Mexico and California, and all intermediate
States and Territories. The books of the com
pany show the shipment of a burglar and fire
proof safe to China within the past six months.
A safe just completed for a bank in Now York
State as shown this afternoon. Tho prospects
for this manstrj were never brighter than they
are right now. "Last year was the best on rec
ord, end this year promises to be better. The
large force of workmen employed are, many of
thtm, working overtime of late in order to
catch np to orders.
Recent orders for the most approved patterns
of burglar and fire-proof safes from Waynes
liurgand Huntingdon. Pa, and Reyser, V.
Va.. and scores of places near and far have re
cently been booked, and a year of unusual
actn ity is certainly ahead for this pioneer com
pany. Bonders' Hnrdvrnrr.
The recent lull in iron and steel has had a
quieting influence on this department of our
inauufacturmg industries since the first of the
jear. There was a very actl7o demand for this
line of goods, in the closing months of 1ES9. and
dealers then stocked up so heavily that the
output has of lato been accumulating. There
was a general expectation of an advance in
rates in Jo ember and December, and this led
dealers to purchase more heavily than usual.
The advance fatled to materialize and a larger
stock of goods than usual is htld by second
hands. lience orders come in sloulyso tar this
year. There has. however, been an improve
ment in demand the past week or two, and as
the ontlook for building in this section was
never better than it is now, there is a strong
undertone of confidence in the future of build
ers' hardware. The difference between this
and average seasons is that trade this season
will be a little behind Utno getting undor bead
wav. The orders which usually come in February
and March are expected to come in April and
May. Already the signs are here that trade
will boom in the next tno months. The out
look has very much brightened in the past
week.
Conl Transportation.
A river man who has been familiar with coal
transportation for well nigh a generation said
to-day: "This season has been an exception to
anything in my memory, nnd older inhabitants
than I am say the same thing. Since the 29th
of October the tow boat with which I am en
gaced has made 13 trips from here to Cincin
nati, towing each time from 15 to 20 barges and
fiats, some of which have carried 15,000 bushels
of coal. Wcbavonotlosta day in that time.
The stage of water lias been all that was re
quired, and there has been no Ice, as there is in
ormnary seasons, to compel us to lay np. 1 am
very sure that there has not been as favorable
a season for transporting coil uown the Ohio
for 2u years as this past winter has been. As a
result coal yards below are unusually well
stocked for this time of the year, and fuel has
been extraordinarily cheap all the past season.
Tho weather which has given us steady
transportation has had the effect also of lessen
ing demand for coal, and tho result is that coal
Is a drug on the market on the lower Ohio."

Receipt and Offerings Fork
Market Dotva Asaln.
Chicago Wheat There was a good trade
within a moderate range. Frices, however,
were subject to numerous and quite sudden
changes during tho session. The opening was
KQJbc lower than yesterday's closing, and
prices further declined He then started a sharp
upturn of Jc, which again gave way to a de
cline of KQlc. rallied &c. ruled easier,
and closed about Jc lower than yesterday.
Trading was rather scattered, and included
fair outside business with few foreign orders
some of which were to sell. Early in the day
traders felt rather bullish, but later many felt
a little uncertain and some inclined to be on
the bear side, while others, although not favor
ing short selling, were not inclined to buy on
tbe recent advance.
There no doubt was a disposition on the part
or the more conservative traders to await a
warmer weather and see what the actual dam
age has been to the growing wheat. Early In
tho session there was rather free selling, but
several of the prominent traders turned buyers,
which started a sharp advancebut at tbe ad
vance there was heavy realizing, some of the
early bnyers being tho heaviest sellers
Com was quite active at times, the market
ruling a little irregular, tho feeling early being
quiio strong, but later reacted, losing most of
tbe advance. The early strength was due to
reports of wet weather in the West, and to the
firmer tone of wheat. Offerings were rather
limited, and buying scattered. The reaction
later was influenced by the larger receipts and
increased offerings by receivers. Receipts at
11 points footed up 1,229,500 bushels and tho
shipments 991.000 bushels Tho market opened
a shade uniier the closing prices of yesterday,
was easy for a time and sold off a little, became
firm and advanced e. reacted, declining V
c, ruled steady, and closed.ashado lower than
jestcrdav.
Oats "there was a fair volume of business
with a higher range of prices The strength
was due to the better feeling In wheat and
corn. The offerings were not particularly
large and the demand fair, and prices ad
vanced HQic, but outside flgnrcs were not
maintained, as a weak feeling developed the
last 15 minutes. Offerings became free and all
tbe advance was lost.
Mess Pork Quiet; an active business was
reported, and prices ruled somewhat irregular.
The feeling was rather unsettled and especially
daring the early part of the day. Offerings
were lair, and opening sales were made at 2
5c decline. At this reduction a good demand
prevailed credited to the short interest. Later
a more quiet feeling was developed, and prices
receded 1015?, and closed comparatively
steady.
Lard A fair tradu was reported and the feel
ing was steadier. Opening sales were made at
about yesterday's closing figures but a fair de
mand later tended to strengthen tbe market,
and prices rallied 5"Kc. Toward the close
tbe tcelmg was easier, and tbe advance was not
maintained.
Ribs An unusually brisk business was trans
acted, and tbe market developed cobsiderable
strength about tLe middle of tbe session. Shorts
bought freely, and several rough lots changed
hands including one lot of 1,500.000 Iks for
May delivery. Prices were advanced 5)c.
but settled back again 2Kc, and closed com
paratively steady.

TIIE YALUB OP STREET EAILWAI STOCK
The only important event in real estate
circles yesterday, so far as could be fished
out, was the sale by James W. Drape &
Co. of nine lots on Ditbridge street, each 0
feet by 180, the entire frontage being 450
feet, at figures running from $52 50 to $56
a foot front, the entire sale aggregating
$25,000 casb. The purchasers are Messrs.
E. Z. Smith, John, Isaac and William Beckley
and Thomas Fry. They will erect handsome
dwellings on tho property during the present
season.
It is again given out that considerable East
ern money will find its way to Pittsburg this
spring for investment in manufactures and
real estate. While Pittsburg is entirely able,
financially, to take care or her own interests,
the promised Influx of foreign capital will be
welcome. The city has started on a career of
expansion which will afford profitable employ
ment for large amounts of money, and out
siders are welcome to come In and share our
good fortune. There Is room enough and bus
iness enough for all.
Holders of street railway stocks will he in
terested in the following quotations made the
other day in New York: Eighty-five shares
Third Avenue Railroad Company brought
242 to 247fc 20 shares Sixth Avenuo Railroad
Company. 192; 144 shares Second Avenue Rail
road Company, lOTJi: 60 shares Central Park,
North and East River Railroad Company,
123Ji; 1 share Clinton Hall Association at
55K. and a SL000 bond of the Bleecker Street
and Fulton Ferry Railroad Company, 114
If the plans for its improvement are carried
out, Wildwood on the Allegheny, near where
the pumping station of the Pennsylvania
Water Company is located, will soon be trans
formed into ono of tbe finest summer resorts
in the county. Among the improvements pro
jected arc a fine hotel and a large park, with a
lake, trees, shrubbery, and other appliances for
comfort and pleasure. East End capitalists
are said to be putting up tho money.
This time last year the United States was
shipping gold to Europe; whereas now the con
dition of our foreign trade balance is so unlike
what it then was that the outlook does not give
promise of gold leaving us in any considerable
amount during the next six months. This af
fords assurance of continued ease in the money
market.
Speculation is so sensitive to ontside influ
ence that almost anything is sufficient to move
prices one way or the other. Rumors of the
most improbable kind are frequently resorted
to with success as a bnll or a bear factor. The
rise in New York Central the other day was
due to the announcement that there was a sur
pins of S14.000 against a rmall deficit for the
corresponding quarter in 1SS9. A month or two
ago the stock of a local traction road lost a full
point because one of tbe cars of the company
had run over and injured a child. Investors
were apprehensive of a suit for damages

The State of Georgia calls forbids fora series

in installments of $100,000 yearly, beginning

4S per cent, but bids are invited for the entire
series, bearing a lower rate of interest, viz., 4
percent per annum, 3K per cent per annum and
3 per cent per annum.
STOCK TRADING.
Neither Side Dltpoaed to be Aggressive,
but Valuo Steady.
There was rather dry picking at the stock
market yesterday, affording a sharp contrast to
tbe activity of the previous day. Sales were
JS0 shares. It was evident that a good many
orders were on Die, but being a shade below the
prevailing quotations very little effort was made
to fill them for fear of starting a boom.
Changes were few and unimportant, but the
majority of such as occurred were advances.
The best figures were recorded in the forenoon.
Tbe only surprise was a sale of 100 shares of
La Noria at 25 cents. This occasioned some
talk, but it made a quotation all the same.

est, 8Sc; lowest, 86c; closing, 87c.
The low prices are bringing out considerable
long oil, bought around $1 OS. A good deal of
it was marketed yesterday. The shaking ont
of the longs will afford opportunity for a new
deal and an advance in the price.

Ohio crude and a declino in refined at New

BATE CUTTING
Encourages the Bears to Pound Railroad
Shares Talk of Stringent Money Atch
ison Lends In Activity Flnnl
Clmnges Trifling.
New York, March 18. Tho slock market to
day was extremely dull, narrow and almost en
tirely professional, with a consequent sagging
tendency in prices, vliicb, however, as a rule,
resulted in nothing but slight fractional reces
sions. Reports of cutting ot rates were again
prevalent, and gave tho bearish traders what
li'tlo encouragement theyhad during the day.
The opening of the market was marked by "a
more vigorous attempt to donn the list than we
have seen for somo days, and Union Pacific was
tho special object of tho attack, being reported
as one of the offenders in tho rate cutting line.
The effect of the recent report of earnings of
the system, together with the opposition of the
company to a funding bill supposed to be in its
interest, were powerful bear arguments on tho
stock.
The bears are looking for a stringent money
market around April 1. and the near approach
of the settlements of that date makes them a
little more aggressive, while tbe bulls hold off
pending that time.
" Atchison was again ono of the most active
stocks of tho day, but the strength which it
has shown lately was missing, and the same
mav be said ot tho Wheeling and Lake Erie
tocks. Northern Pacific preferred and C. C. C.
& St. L. were ai6Q specially weak at times, while
all the advances were made in tho specialties
the most conspicuous movement being in Flint
and Pere Marnuette.
Tbe unlisted department was more quiet,
though there was a fair business in sugar re
fineries which after a fractional decline slowly
crept up again and closed with a material Im
provement. There was no news of a character to have
any influence upon prices In the afternoon, mid
the most extreme dullness and stagnation ruled
tbe market which finally closed fairlv steady,
but generally within a small fracthm of the
lowest prices. The list Is almost invariably
lower to-nlgur. and while most of they changes
are insignificant, Northern Paciflo tmd Cleve
land, Columbus, Cincinnati and St. Louis lost
1 per cent each.whlle Flint and PereMarquette
is up 4, the preferred and Sugar 1 each.
The railroad bond market was comparatively
moro animated than tho share list, bat out of
tbe total day's business of $1,497,000 Atchison
incomes contributed $332,000, the 4'a $165,000.
tho Texas Pacific firsts $136,000, ai.d Louisville,
New Albany and Chicago consols $120,000.
The J'oat says: There was no news of any
kind to furnish a pretext for selling stocks
short this forenoon. On tbe contrary there
were several facts that should have encouraged
tbe expectation of firmness, at least, if not
some improvement in prices Foreign exchange
was reduced Ji cent on the pound, and the
sub-Treasury was debtor at the Clearing Houso
this morning $1,555,000, both of these facts giv
ing some reason to expect easier rates for
money.
So far as tho railroad sitnation is concerned,
there is still reason to expect an important im
provement in tho relations of the Western
roads to each other. And as for the roads east
of Chicago, they are doing better now than at
any timo in the past five years, with a fair pros
pect that their present profitable business will
continue. Their stocks have risen a little in
the last month, but the average Is still several
points below what it was two months or six
weeks ago.
