ETea the Manufactured rrodaet Hob an Upward Tendency. IDE SITUATION EAST, SOUTH AXD WEST The improvement noted a week ngo In Iron markets is fully sustained. The grcat eit improvement i in Besspmer iron, and our quotations on this grade uro put forward in accordance with the fact of the caie. The tone of trade in all iron and steel lines ii better than it has been for two or three nionihs. It is evident that the worst is over and that fntnre cliaugcs are bouna to be to ward a higher level or prices in all lines. Iu the laith that bottom lias been reached buyers are dipping in heavily. There is no longer any disposition on the part of holders to make concessions, as there has been for a few weeks past. Buj era would be clad to ob tain Bessemer and mill Irons at prices offered ten days ago. For the former producers aro unwilling to contract a month ahead at 50c per ton over present market rates. Manufactured Iron stands the same as last week, hut there is this difference, that markets ere then w eak w bile now they arc strong with an upward tenoency. Tbpre is aUo a more actire demand lor rails at prices of a w eek ago. Kails hae not yet shared in the upward move nieut of prices, bnt may bo quoted steady at old rates. Said one of our most conservative iron brokers :o-d: "I feel that the tide has turned, and that we are to have better iron markets from now on to fall. A w cek ago I had my feats that the upward movement might not start up till fall. While there is no boom, there is a decided improvement in the iron situation the past week, and prospects are pood tor active markets for the balance of' the year." i Following are the latest quotations: Structural Iron -Angles,?!. 15: tees, 1.80c: beams and channels, 3.10c: sheared bridge plates, steel. 2.Oc; unltcrul mill plates.

A Falling Off In the Demand for Tig In the nirnilosbnra Urclon. tercet- Tixsonau to th dispatch.! BlRMlxonAM, Ala., Hay 2S. Thcro hat been a considerable falling off In the demand for pis iron this week, and trade is beginning to crow a little dulL Tnere is still considera ble iron selling, but in small lots, and the de mand does not encourage manufacturers to hope for a change for the better earlier than August or September. In output thcro has been no decroase. All the furnaces In the district are in blast, except two. shut down for repairs, aud tho average weekly output Is 17,000 tons. .None of the t uruaces In this district will go out of blast, oven if iron goes SI lower. They can make money with a turther decline, and as long as tbey can sell a fair proportion of their output there will be no shutting down. In prices thcro has been no material chance, but some manufacturers are disposed to cut figures a little on large lots. Tbo Mouy Pratt Company sold COO tons of No. 2 soft at 11 f. o. t at the furnace on Mon day. The sale was to a Cincinnati firm, aud the price was a blight cut on the figures asked last week. Ko contracts for future delivery aro being tnade now, and the indications aro that the iron trade will bo dull for the next three months, with probably a decline of 0 cents per ton in ' prices. 170 CHANGE AT ST.

Rogers, Brown & Mea cham say: Our market is pretty much a repe tition of last week. Consumption continues large and provides a steady run of small orders covering immediate requirements. Business for later deliveries is held in suspense owing to the anticipation of consumers that the ever-increasing production and the daily announcement of new furnaces are promises of lower prices in the early future. Inconse quence, however, of the large orders entered by Southern furnaces tbey are holding prices firmly, and annonnce their expectation of higher fi cures during the summer.

The spirit of ac tivity and vim which has been noticeable lor Borne weeks in the grain and stock markets is affecting other branches of trade, and one of the first to feel Its influence is the iron industry. There are more small orders being filled and a greater number of inquiries aro made for larger amounts of stock. There is no advance to note in prices in this market, although reports from other cities, especially those in the West. Indicate an advance of 25 cents to SI per ton on pig iron. Manufacturers are inclined to limit tales to early deliveries. They are more independent and show less dis position to shade prices. Cuban ores ate to play a more important part in the manufacture of iron at Eastern furnaces. A company styled the SIgna Iron Company has been incorporated by a number of wealthy gentlemen of this citv, including Chauvcnt, President, and George i Baker, Secretary aud Treasurer. They have leased 1,000 acres of rich ore lands in Cuba, owned by Cubans and Spaniards, and will at once proceed to del clontbem and seek a mar ket for the ore, whicb, by a test iu the furnaces ol the Pennsylvania Steel Company, has been found auapted to Bessemer purposes. There are good orders in the bands of steel ran makers, w bich will create a better demand for raw material. There is a confident feeling that by July tbo market will assume a ranch better tone than has been prevailing through the spring months. A fair range of quotations follows: No. 1 foundry, delivered at tide, IS 00 618 50; No. 2 loundry, S17 00 17 50, and gray forge, SIS 50618 00. Fancy brands will com mand Sue extra per ton.

Rogers, Brown fc Co.. lay: Tbe story of the market, as for several weeks past, is told in a few words active business at low prices. Most sellers are firm in refusing to book orders for deliveries more than four or fire months ahead, unless at ad Tanced prices. Some, however, make no such restriction, aLd In one Instance a buyer who wanted a round lot for deliverici beginning In (September, succeeded in setting it. There is 'one, undeniable Improvement in the markets centering at Pittsburc. Wheeling and Cleve land, wLere the influences, until lately, have been extremely bearish. Bessemer iron steel .billets and Like Erie lorgeand foundry iron have perceptibly advanced. r In Southern products values are unchanged. .There is a lltUo more actirityin Ohio softeners.

The bet flgin cream ery can now be laid down in Pittsburg at a shade nnder 17c per pound. Eggs have been in very short supply for the past week, and choice nearby stock has advanced fully 3c per dozen from the lowest point reached this spring. Lake and ocean products are in better supply than a week ago, but demand is fully equal to supply. Staplo meats change not. Butchers report very active trade and claim that margins are about wiped out, owing to higher price of cattle and ice. Tbe price of the latter is nearly trebled as compared 1th last season, and cattle aro fully $1 00 per cw t. higher. There has been no advance In tenderloins and choice rib roasts, but there most have been handsome profits to the trade last season it there is any profit now.

The Equitable Insurance Company deal was the principal topic Several said they bad had intima tions of it before the announcement in Tub Dispatch, but that it bad been worked as a close secret. Thero was no difference of opinion ns to the eligibility of the site for such a building as the one proposed, nor as to tho benefit It would bo to that part of tbe city. It was Incidentally learned that tbe Central Hotel property Is held at about 1 400.000. Some other deals wero quietly discussed, two ot them of special importance as a gauge of values on a street that has produced several sensations wltthln tho past six months, but it was decided tbey wore not quite ready for pub lication. It was stated by several gontlemen, and disputed by none, that the demand for largo properties is greater than at any other time in the history of tho city. As to tho out look for tho market thero was but one opinion that it was strong and healthy, with no signs of a reaction. Pittibnrg la Chicago.

Oil Hakes a Pine Mpurl, bnt Eases Off a Little. The oil market opened yesterday with a fair showing of strength, but business was slow, and tbo aggregate of sales smaller than for several days, excepting, perhaps, Thursday, when they wero only 22,000 barrels. Scarcity of stuff and fears of manipulation aro a standing menace to business. The first quotation was 02o, from which point there was a slow advance, first to 93c, then to 93c, and finally, along about noon, to 95c, from which it weakened on selling by Oil City, and clotTCAt 04c, showing a handsome gain for tbe Gltf.

General Review of ibe Week' Operations In Ibe New Field. ISrXCIAt. TELXOnjUbt TO TUB DISPATCIt.l Belmont, W. Va., May 23. The operations of the week have not led to any important results, so far as increasing the actual produc tion of the field is concerned. Johnston fc Brockunler's Locke No. 2 has been shot, and is flowing about 20 or SO barrels a day. Her owners think that by tubing and packing they will raise ber to about CO barrels, and are going to try It Storey, Ackerly & Samuels' Friedel No. 1, in Ohio, would make a small natural producer, but she will be shot cither to-day or to-morrow. Alongside of her. Hart's Ferry welt is expected in by the last of this week or the first of next. Hart's Barnyard well is in tbe sand,and showing up very nicely. It is in tbe line of producers, and will probably be a good well. The same gentleman's Blacksmith well will de clare her intentions within a week or so, and from her alignment bids fair to be a gasser. The Island is still doing business at tbe old 280 barrel rate. "Sweet William's Dandy, or the Pride of Mrs. Johnston's Boy."i3 holding up at 500 barrels. George W. Ross' Triangle well has been drilled through the sand, and Is doing over 300. Storey, Hart it Boss' Shingleton No. 1 is only doing about 150. When she runs down a little more she will have a nitro-glycerine "persuader" introduced, and will in all proba bility bo bettered considerably. In the Eureka field tbo two wells on Ed. Hammat's have shown up for small wells and will be shot. Cochran Nos. 12 and 13 are well on the road to completion, end will be brought in this and next week.

This well is within 250 feet of a produc ing well on the Carson farm. Tho rig has been finished on the Jobn Mc Willlams farm, south of West Alexander. Spudding will be commenced Monday. Bradley, Kennedy tCo.'s Miller No. 2 put in the last string of casing on Thursday. No. 9 of the Claysvllle Oil Company's Gourley well is finished and putting in the 7-lncb casing on Wednesday. T. R.

The oil development on Chartlers creek Is phenomenal. No ono seems to think it possi ble to get a duster within half a uillo of O'Brien's "Folly." Tbe Rider-Wylle well, within a few feet of O'Brien No. L was acting yesterday evening as though she might make a 500 barreler when opened. The McKee's Rocks Oil Company's well is said to ne a fair producer. The Bear Creek Oil Company's well across the creek from the O'Brien wells is rated at close to 500 barrels, and tbe Union Oil Company will begin operations on tbe adjoin ing farm within a few days. Tbe Lutheran Church parsonage well Is doing close to 00 barrels. E.

Block Hpecnlntlon Cooling Off-Fluctuations Narrow nnd Trading- Lloht I'enr or an Atchison-Gould Quarrel Subsld. Inc Prominent Feamres. New York. May 2J.-Tlie stock market to day showed a marked falling off in business, and a corresponding docllne In tbe interest taken In tho speculation, very few shares to day fluctuating over a range of more than a fraction, while the movemonts In the general Hit wero devoid of featuro and Interest. There was no excitement wnatever, such as lias marked tho aeallngs almost every day for tho past month, and only In Sugar Refineries, which, with Citizens' Gas of Brookl)n. was tho only stock showing any wide fluctuation, was there any approach to any such thing. The manipulation of tbe surface seems to bo weakening, and tho realizations again caused a sharp downward movement in tho last hour, which loft it materially lower than last even ing. In the regular list, the Grangers were still tho most prominent features, and soon after the opening to-day tbey became strong and advanced uuon tbe reports that there was to be an Increase of rates. By poon, however, t became known that there was nothing in tho rnmois and the Grangers sold down again. St. Paul, Rock Island and Lake Erie and Western common wore strong features to-day, and the first named moved up sharply toward noon, but failed to maintain its advantage dur ing the latter portion of the day. The belief in an Atchison-Gould quarrel is not so prevalent as a few days ago, and to-day tbe Southwestern stocks were stronger on rumors of a settlement of the differences between the two Interest'. Atchison, however, was, as a rule, weak and with Richmond and West Point sagged away slowly but steadily, though the latter received good support around 26 until late in the after noou. The market in the afternoon possessed less animation and showed smaller fluctuations than at any time within tbe past month, and at times became positively dull. The usual Fri day realizations, with some selling by London, caused tbe market to give wayln the last hour, though Sugar was extremely weak at tbe time and close was quiet, bnt heavy to weak gener ally at insignificant cbanges for tbe day. Tbe final changes are irregular, but tbe declines are in a large majority, though In no caso among the active stocks for more than fractional amounts. On tbo other hand Colorado Coal is up 1 per cent. . Railroad bonds like stocks, were very quiet to-day and the same indifferent tone marked the dealings, tho changes in quotations except in an extremely limited number of issues being confined to insignificant fractions. The sales reached only 81.291,000, while the Atlantic and Pacific Incomes with sales of 8107.000 wero the only active specialty. The Important changes are very few in number, and Minneapolis aud 8t. Louis Iowa extension 7s lost 5, at 98; Peoria andPekln Union seconds 3M, at 70. Government bonds have been dull and steady. State bonds havo been entirely neglected. The Post says: The principal activity was In tbe Granger snares, all of which were bigbcr on moro favorable reports regarding the rate situation in tho West. The decline in Rich mond Terminal was due to selling for the short account.based on rumors that tho rights would be less valuable than expected. The Coal stocks wore dull, but strong, and the market was higher. Tbe news from tbe West was moro favorablo, and Indications point to an early adjustment of existing troubles. Tbo foreign buylug has boenan important featuro in the market and has materially assisted the upward movement In prices.

THE DTOKAEDS' LOVE FEAST. Slulea nnd Females Wmb Each Other's) Feet nnd tho Men Kin Each Olber. Readino, May 23. The peculiar religious denomination known as tbe Dunkards aro holding their yearly love feasts in most of the German counties ot Pennsylvania in the east ern part of tho State. The meeting held at Ziegler's Meeting House, near Rebrersburg, was one of great interest. Tbere were thou sands of people in attendance, and nearly all of them were Dunkards. The farmers, attired in tho dress peculiar to tbeir faith, and hundreds of women and children made the occasion a lively one. T he meeting is a peculiar one. On the second floor aro two large rooms, which were occupied by the brothers and sisters who came from a distance. One room was occnpled by the men and tbe other by tbe women and children. An ox weighing 550 pounds waa slaughtered for the meals. Altera sermon or two the interesting feet washing ceremony took place. When tbo Bishop had finished reading tho biblical chap ter which describes Christ washing tbe feet of the disciples, tbo Dunkards gave a very fair imitation of tbe ceremony. One brother kneeled down and washed both feet of threo or four brothers sitting on a bench In a row. while an other brother, girt with a towel, followed and wiped tbe feet. Tbe women, all of whom woro white laco caps, washed each other's teet in tbe same way wbllo an appropriate hymn was be ing sung. Loaves of bread and tin dishes con taining soup made of rice and beef having been placed on the table, alt tbe members partook of tbe Lord's Supper. Every set of four brothers and every set of four sisters ate soup out of one dish, two sitting on each side of a narrow table. The members arose after eating and embraced each other in a fervent manner. Tho salatatlon ot tho holy kiss followed, when each imprinted a kiss on tho lips of the mem ber next to him. Tbe meeting lasted two days. Postponed Tor Another Week. The hearing in the case of the Government against the city of Allegheny, for the con demnation of property for Kerr's Island dam, was postponed from yesterday until next week, owing to tbe request of Attorney Elphtustone, who wishes to get evidence of the city's title to the ground. jtfppflloa Presents in the most elegant form THE LAXATIVE ANO NUTRITIOUS JUICE ofthb FIGS OF CALIFORNIA, Combined with the medicinal virtues of plants known to be most beneficial to the human system, ibrming an agreeable and effective laxative to perma nently cure Habitual Consti pation, and the many ills de pending on a weak or inactive condition of the KIDNEYS, LIVER AND BOWELS. 1 1 is the most excellent remedy known to CLEANSE WE SYSTEM EFFECTUALLY When one is Bilious or Constipated SO THAT PURE BLOOD, REFRESHING SLEEP, HEALTH and 8TRENQTH NATURALLY FOLLOW.
