'IRON TRADE REVIEW.
The Upward Movement in the Local
Market Fully Sustained.
A COKFIDEKT FEELING PREVAILS.
Southern Furnaces Overwhelmed hj & Sad
den Sash of Orders.
TEE SITUATION BOTH EAST AND WEST
The upward movement in iron and steel
is fully sustained, and prices are a shsde
higher than a week ago for Bessemer and
gray force irons. Bessemer irons hare been
particularly active the past week, and
prices are advanced as quotations will dis
close. There are reports of gray force sales
at f 16 per ton. There is a strong undertone
of confidence among manufacturers and
dealers as to the future of markets. While
there is no boom and the feeling among
dealers is rather conservative, trade is
steadily Improving, and standard brands are
firm and active at quotations.
There is no disposition on the part of furnace
men to contract lor f ntnre delivery at present
prices. Foundry irons are steady at last week's
prices. Slock bar is very firm, and prices are
a shade stronger. Kails are in better demand
than they bave been for a month or two past,
and, while there has been no advance in prices,
markets are much firmer, and there n no
longer a disposition on the part of manufac
turers to make concessions as there has been
for some time past feteel rail", bloom and
billets have also joined in the upward move
ment. In (reneral, the Iron and steel outlook
is healthy. The situation is better than a boom,
as demand is active and prices are slowly bnt
surely moving toward a hicber level.

Birmingham, ALA., June 6. The iron trade
has been very active during the week, but the
sudden revival is probably spasmodic Small
orders from the Western markets have been
pouring in, and several furnaces in this dis
trict have sold all the iron they can make this
month. All orders coming in no w are for June
delivery. The Tennessee Coal, Iron and Rail
road Company sold IS, 000 tons during the week,
all for June delivery. These orders will be
tilled from their Emsley City furnaces. There
has been no chance of prices, but the sudden
rush of orders causes furnace men to bold
prices very firm and talk confidently of an
early advance. There have been no contracts
for July and August delivery made, and no
iron is offered for those months at present
prices. Stocks are low and tbe output is being
sold about as fast as made. Fully 60 per cent
of the iron that will be made this month has
already been sold and will be delivered as fast
as possible.
All the furnaces in the district are In blast
and the weekly output is 13,000 to 16. 000 tons.
"Work has begun on two new charcoal furnaces
at Briarncld, Shelby count. They will be 75
tons capacity each, and will be completed br
December. Contracts bave been awarded for
tbe erection of another 100-ton coke lurnace at
Talladiga and a 60-ton charcoal furnace at
Svllacauga.
Tbe new charcoal furnace at BInnTton has
been finished and Is in blast. Tbe Jacksonville
.Land Company will build two coke furnaces at
Jacksonville, contracts having already been
awarded for the erection of one of them.
Steel making by the Henderson basic process
continues a success, and tho steel finds ready
sale in the market. The company have already
made arrangements to double their plant.
PHILADELPHIA UHCHAXGED.
Tbe
Price There Are the Same, bat the
Market Is Firmer.
rSFZCIAI, TBIEGRAM TO THI OtflrATrn. J
Pbu.acei.fuia, Juno 6. Reports from the
West and South announce higher prices for
iron. There is no important change to note,
however, in the Philadelphia market. When
prices sagged after the boom experienced in
1SS3 values did not sink so low here as at other
points. The markets which were most mercur
ial are the first to feel the influence of the re
vival in trade. Cities like Chicago, Pittsburg
and Cincinnati are therefore now recording ad
vances and are really coming up to
the level from which Philadelphia did
not descend. Tbe improvement in other
markets helped the tone of the Philadelphia
market, which rules firm at quotations. Prices
arc not higher than tney were at a correspond
ing time last year. The cost of production is
greater and tbe selling prices heroafter are
more apt to be advanced than reduced. Pig
iron at tide is worth SIS for Xo. 1, $17 for No. 2
and tl6 for gray forge per ton. Fancy
brands will exceed these figures. If furnacemen
would shade quotations 23 cents several large
orders would be placed. They are holding
firm, and it looks as if the buyers will have to
meet tbe sellers. A fair range of quotations
follows:
Bessemer pig at furnace, $20 5021 00 per ton:
hot-blast charcoal, $21 5023 00 delivered; cold
blast. 26 0027 50: steel rails. $31 5032 00; muck
ban, $28 00&2S 50; old rails, tli 50aS5 00 deliv
ered at interior mills. Bar iron is in fair de
mand, and the mills are kept busy. Merchant
bars at the mill are worth 1.80c per pound;
skelp grooved, 1.75c; delivered and sheared, 1 95
2 plates. il02.15c; angles at tho mill. 2.10
2.20c; tees, 2.60i75c; beams and channels, 3.10c.

Ceciskati, June G- Rogers, Brown & Co.
liy. Tbe last week has witnessed tbe most
active spurt we bave had since the beginning of
the year. The heavy buying of few preceding
weeks resulted finally in an overfilling of fur
nace order books, and on Saturday and Monday
several companies advanced prices and others
withdrew entirely from the market. When
buyers finally became convinced that reports
as to the strong position of the furnaces were
genuine, there was a strong push to get iron for
torward deliveries. Since Monday, however,
leading sellers have held firmly to 50 cents per
ton advance and that has been paid for consid
erable quantity of iron without objections.
Leading Southern companies have acted very
conservatively, not desiring to attempt any ad
vance till their position was so strong as to
leate no doubt about its being maintained
through the summer and fall. In Bessemer
iron and other products of lake ores, there has
been an advancing tendency also. The whole
market looks stronger, and there is a free dis
iiositinn to buy lor actual needs. Speculators
have figured but little in the heavy purchases
made, though statements to tbe contrary are
current.
SLOW TO BELIEVE IT,
CMenco Consumers Forced at Last to Rec
ognize ibe Advance,
israelii, telegram ro the DuraTcn.:
Chicago, June 6. Rogers, Brown A Co. say:
Consumers in Chicago and the Northwest,
which is at all times a closely debated market,
hare been slow to believe the reports from
other quarters of firmer and advancing prices.
Tbe week, however, has removed all doubts on
this bead, and there has been a general disposi
tion to take hold. Most of the larger inquiries
have been for longer forward deliveries, which
many furnaces have positively declined to take
unless at considerably better figures.
Buyers, however, ha-' been able, for tbe
most part, to get what tuey wanted. Southern
irons are np oO cents to SI per ton. i&ke Supe
rior charcoal iron is fa active demand and is
firm in tone, but no advance is noted. Ohio
softeners are wanted freeh. but in small lots
mainly. Old material rnles higher.

Tbe Latest Quotations.
The supply of vegetables and fruits the week
past has been large and general drift of prices
has been downward. The first home-grown
strawberries of tbe season bave put in their ap
pearance within a few da s. and by another
week will be at their best Those' from Mary
land bave been coming In in rather bad shape
the past few days. New potatoes from the
South are coming in freely, but last Saturday's
prices still hold good. Tbe situation as to but
ter and eggs is little changed from a week ago.
Butter has touched Its lowest point for this sea
son and markets are a shade steadier. Eggs,
too, are rather firmer In price than they were
a week ago. Staple meats seldom change.
At tbe flsb stalls it was learned that frogs,
soft shell crabs and brook trout are among tbe
fresh ai rivals. There is a fair supply of East
ern fish, but none too many for demand. Xhe
sbad season is about over.
Florins report a fair trade for the week fol
lowing Decoration Day, when a lull is looked
for. Next Sunday being Children's Day In the
churches, the demand for church decorations
is active, and beside this there is a full average
of weddings and funerals which make demands
on floral goods sufficient to keep trade lively.

HUNDREDS OP ACRES GOBBLED.
Pittsburg's Eapid Growth Kot at the Ex
pense of Tributary Territory.
THE KEWS A5D GOSSIP OP THE TOWN
From information furnished yesUrday
evening by Mr. Thomas Liggett, through
whose instrumentality much ot the business
has been transacted, it can he said that
there has been considerable movement in
acreage property at Parnassus quite recent
ly, but whether in the interest of a town, a
glue factory, a hotel or theater is at present
unknown except to a few persons, who are
as voiceless and close as oysters.
The farms of Stephen Young, Alexander
Young and Mrs. Seltz, comprising about
360 acres, have already changed hands, and
options have been secured on several other
properties tbe whole amounting to probably
K)0 or 1,000 acres. Prices range from 1350 to
t500 an acre.
The land already secured gives the purchas
ers over a mile of river front and the same on
each side of the railroad. It is at least 25 feet
above high water mark. The Murraysville
natural gas field is only six miles distant and the
Pine Bun field seven. The Chartlers gas field
on tbe Pinhook anticlinal lies back of Parnas
sus about two miles. There is also a seven foot
vein of excellent coak
Bearing these facts in mind, it is not difficult
to reach the conclusion that the purchasers
have extensive manufacturing Interests in
view, though of what nature they decline at
present to divulge. And it would not be sur
prising If a new town were to grow up aronnd
these works. The entire deal is being put
through by Pittsburg capital and capitalists.
Rural Towns All Booming.
A gratifying feature of the business situa
tion is the fact that the growth of Pittsburg is
not at the expense of the surrounding country.
Local interests are not being developed to the
disadvantage of our neighbors. Tbe Polyne
sian Islanders, it is said, by continuously row
ing in boats, have developed their arms to
enormous proportions, while their legs are so
weak as to be scarcely able to bear the weight
of their bodies. Pittsburg Is the center of an
extensive territory which contributes largely
to its support, and may be called its legs. To
dwarf these in any way would be like killing
the goose that laid the golden eggs. Onr capi
talists understand this so well that they are
always ready to lend assistance to the country
when called upon.
There is scarcely a town, big or little, within
50 or'lUO miles of Pittsburg, in any direction,
that is not full of business. In all of tbem capi
talists and investors are laying out lots, build
ing and improving at a rate that is almost im
possible to realize by those who have not
visited them and seen for themselves. As illus
trations, take a few within a short distance of
the city Braddock, McKeesport, Butler, Wash
ington, Beaver, Rochester and others. They
are all booming. Building is active and manu
facturing interests of various kinds are de
veloping at a marvelous rate. Some of tbem
have almost doubled In population within four
or five years. The value of real estate has in
creased in proportion, but there are ten sales
to-day where there was one before the tide of
prosperity set in. The agricultural Interest has
also imnroved. Farms are in better condition
than ever before, there are fewer mortgages
and farmers are more contented.
All this Is directly to the boneftt of Pittsburg.
City and country are so Intimately associated
that disaster to either will be felt by the other.
With prosperity all around, as well as at home,
there Is no danger of a collapse. In fact, such
a thing IB impossible nnder existing conditions.
The spring must fall before the brook goes

Tbe Pittsburg correspondent of the Southern
Lumberman truthfully says: "Never before
has the trade in Western Pennsylvania looked
so thoroughly enconraglng as at present. The
building operations in view and in progress are
far greater than we have ever bad before, and
the greatly increased manufacturing interests
of this city have made it necessary to add to
the resident portions to such an extent that it
is almost impossible to get material and work
men to complete jobs in specified time,"

EATHEE BEAEISH.
No Boomerang In Locnl Securities, bnt
Declines In the Majority.
Stock trading amounted to very little yester
day, and the feeling was bearish. Declines
were in the majority, though in all cases they
wero for small fractions and possessed no
significance, except to show that orders "at the
market" are a scarce article.
Enterprise Savings, Wheeling Gas and La
Noriawere stronger. Stocks making conces
sions, as compared with closing quotations of
the previous day.were Central Traction, Pleas
ant Valley, Luster and Electric The rest of
the list was featureless. Tbe future of Electric
depends upon the course that will be pursued
by holders. Anything like a general selling
movement would undoubtedly cause a bad
break.

HOME MONET.
A Fair Movement, but Nothing Strange In
the Situation.
Money was in moderate demand yesterday at
the nsual rates, and the supply equal to all re
quirements. Beveral bank officers gave it as
their opinion that tbe market would continue
easy for some time, although they anticipated
a fair business through the summer. Formerly
it was considered the proper thing to let every
thing drop during the hot season, but that is
no longer possible. What is called the "busi
ness season" has come to mean the entire veir.
Exchanges were $2,293,523 27; balances, $571,

HO SHUT-IN MOVEMENT.
Oil Drillers Making Things Hum on the
Sonthslde Moro Good Wells Struck.
Oil operators are not allowing the grass to
grow under their feet in the Chartlers, Mon
tour run and Forest Grove fields. The latter
has become of such importance that a buss
now meets trains on tbe Pittsburg and Lake
Erie Railway at Groveton to carry people to
Forest Grove. There bave been no dusters of
late In that field, and the old wells are still
doing good work. Several new ones are now
on the pay streak. The Enterprise well on the
Presbyterian parsonage ground is promising
well, and the congregation will probably find
tbe church self-supporting, as well as the
Lutheran Church at Chartiers, the congrega
tion of which have a good producer en their
property. The Young No.. 2 is almost com
pleted, and is expected to be good. It is about
800 yards from No. 1.
Tbe Bridgewater Gas Company has the tim
ber for a rig on tbe ground bait a mile east of
Robb station, Montour Railway.
Further up the creek the Emlow Company
yesterday located a well on tbe Alex. Stewart
farm, and is about ready to begin operations.
The location is at Wilson station.
Another well will be bored on the Depp farm
sion. near the two wells sank last fall and
winter, tbe second of which made a sensation
some weeks ago by starting at a 6,000-barreI-a-day
rate.
It was reported yesterday afternoon that a
1,000 barrel gusher had been tapped on tbe
Acklesnn farm, between Frankiort and the
Ohio river. The rumors were somewhat vague,
but extensively believed to be correct.
The Welgerwell on the old Clever home
stead, Chartlen field, is making 100 barrel! a
day.
SUGAR HAS THE CALL.
A Rnmor That Spreckela Wan In Cnnsea
Qnlis a Flurry Drops on Ibe Denial
and Citizens' Gas Leads
Rnllroad Bonds Moderate.
1SFECTAL TELSOBAM TO TUB DISrATCH.1
New Yobk, June a The indications on the
surface In Wall street were all favorable, but
the market remained narrow and quletj and
the favorable influences were afterward en
tirely neutralized by the demoralization of
sugar refineries. The market therefore took on
a waiting attitude after the first hour, and the
railway list became dull and moved within very
narrow limits, wlthont feature of importance
The great feature ot the day was the -ngar re
fineries again, and the recent advance in the
price of refined sugar without a corresponding
advance in the cost of the raw article
aided in creating a strong tone in the
stock at the outset, and later a rumor that
Spreckels bad come Into the trust was the oc
casion of a rise of about 4 per cent Toward
tho close, however, this Tumor was denied, and
the selling Immediately assumed large propor
tions and a sudden drop from 81 to 75JS oc
curred, the rise being at tbe time simply
enormous. There was a partial recovery from
the lowest price, but the stock is materially
lower this evening. The railroad list at first
failed to respond to tbe break in Sngar, but It
gradually yielded, and in almost all cases the
earlv advances of the forenoon were lost.
Chicago Gas was tbe weakest stock on the
regular list, and its close sympathy with Sugar
would account for all of its decline, as there
was no news ol any kind of a character to in
fluence values in any manner. Among the
specialties there were a few marked move
ments during tbe day, but the regular list
moved within narrow limits throughout. In
tbe early dealings, after opening advances of
from ii to Ji per cent, Oregon Transconti
nental showed the way, but the further gains
were only fractional, outside of a few stocks.
Sugar rose IK. Citizens' Gas 2J and Quick
silver preferred 2 per cent, but tbelr gains
xnnrm .ifrerYVAril nartlallv Iosil and Tennessee
"Coal was particularly weak, losing IK. The
Close was rainer neavy, auu me uuai uuaukco,
while irregular and for fractional amounts
only, show a majority of losses, and Sugar
is down while Citizens' Gas is up .
Railroad bonds continue to show a moderate
amount ot business, and while the tone of the
dealings is still firm considerable irregularity
in tbe movements exists, and declines are
fairly numerous this evening. The demand
rnns to the issues of tbe roads now or lately m
f process of reorganization, but the movements
even in those issues are not specially wine.
Tbey. however, present a firm front and give
tone to tbe general market. Tbe sales to-day
reached $1,616,000.
Government bonds have been dull and firm.
State bonds bave been dull and firm.
The Pott says: The attention of speculators
is now concentrated mainly upon Congress,
and tbe movements of the administration is of
the greatest importance in influencing the
events of prices of stocks. Tbe action of the
Secretary of the Treasury yesterday in advanc
ing tbe price at which be would accept 1 per
cont bonds 1 per cent shows that he is endeav
oring to stop the accumulations in the f reasnry,
and this, together with the proposition of
senator onerman to pay out wuere practical
redemption fund held in the Treasury for tbe
redemption of national bank notes, creates the
impression that the appropriation to be made
before tho close of Congress will, m all cases
and for all purposes, be made unusually large.
Whether correctly or not, the expectation of
some legislation on tbe silver question has also
become pretty general among tbe specnlatire
part of the business community, and all these
things combined are the chief elements in
causing the advance in prices of stocks just at
resent. Eaier money will certainly result in
igber prices for stocks.

Groceries.
Sngar has advanced c as our quotations
below will reveal. This is the second rise this
week and there was one last week. At the ad
vance markets are very firm and the end of the
upward movement is not yet. Coffee options
were weaker at last advices from the East, but
packages are steady at old rates. Trade in
general grocery lines was seldom better as to
volume. All wholesale dealers report great
activity.
