A Large Somber of Cattle Shipped East From East Libertr. SHEEP AKD SWIKE ALSO DROOPING OPTICS Or FnTSBTOG DISPATCH, Moxdat. June SO. IS9a ( The offerings of cattle at Heir's Island Taried xery little to-day from last Monday in number, bat quality was below average, and markets were slow at a shade lower prices than ruled a week ago. Drovers re port that prices were a shade higher at Chi cago, and as they were off here profits must have been rery small, If, indeed, there were any profits at all. According to the general view of drorers, this has been a week of loss to shippers of live stock. A Diamond mar ket butcher who buys at Herr's Island said to-day: "I bought my beeTes this week fully 10c per 100 lower than last week, and the grade I bought was 15c better this week than last." The ranee of prices was as follows: Best heavy Chicago beeTes, 85 05 to $5 25; medium do, H 60 to H 65; prime lightweights, 20 to U 40: fair to good do, H 00 to 14 10; common to fair thin and rough steers, $2 75 to S3 75. Fresh cqws were dull and unchanged at $25 00 to W0 00 a bead; calves were good stock at 5c to 6c per pound, and grass-fed bulls, drv cows and stags were fair stock at 2c to 3c per pound.

Receipts of cattle at Woods' Run were 234 head, all from Chicago. They ranged in weight from 1,050 to 1,450 lbs., and in price from4ic to 5Jc. Prices were a shade higher at Chicago this week than last and lower here, so that there was no profit to the drover. Markets were dnll at the decline, bat stock was all closed out early In the day. There were 463 sheep and Iambs on the market, and trade was slow at the following range of prices: Sheep, from 6c to 5Xc; yearlings, 4fc to 6Jc: spring lambs. 55c to c per ft. There were no hogs on sale and no demand. At East Liberty. There were 122 loads of cattle on the market this morning against 115 loads last week. As our local trade does not call for more than 75 loads, it is clear that the situation was alto gether in favor of the buyer. In the receipts were 32 car loads from Chicago, 10 from St. Ixiuis. and the balance were principallygrassers from Ohio. Indiana, Kentucky and West Vir ginia. The Chicago and St Louis cattle were fairly good as to quality, bat the balance were below par. Markets opened up very slow at a decline of 1325c from prices of last week. Heavj weights were not wanted. Fully 20 loads of heavy cattle were sent on East In first hands, and it is probable that more will necessarily be forwarded in order to find a market. Good, smooth batcher cattle weighing from 1.100 to 1.20a lbs were sold at a range of $4 to 4 25 per cwjM There is nb longer any call in this mar kdBor heavy prime beeves, and there were no r3ipts In this line this week. . Batchers who eal in this grade order direct from Chicago. Jl load of choice Chicago beeves averaging 1.115 lbs In weignt was sold at 4 3a. The same quality would have brought 4 50 la.t Monday and H 75 within a few weeks. There were lrom 12 to 15 loads of sheep and lambs on the market this morning. De mand was slow at a general decline from last week's prices. There was little life to trade, and up to 9 o'clock very little stock had changed hands. The outside price for sheep was 5c, and lambs ranged from 5 to 6c per ft. Year lings range little in price from old sheep. At these prices there were few takers at the ODen lng of markets. '1 here were 32 loads of hogs on the market, and trade was dull at a sbarp decline from last week's prices. A few selected bogs sold as bigh as 4c, bnt the general range of prices was $3 SO to S3 90 per 100, At Chicago the situation shows the same features. One of our leading butchers was ad vised this morning by his Chicago agent that top prices there were Si 65 to S3 70 and that receipts were 30,000 head to-day.

December Wheat HlEber, bnt the Other Options Lose Ground Corn Lower Oats Unchanged Pork Neglected nnd the Feelln Unsettled. CHICAGO Wheat Trading was only moder ate to-day. and the feeling undeveloped and un settled. The opening was JifiKc higher than yesterday's closing, but there were fair offer ings under which prices declined all around. Some long wheat was closed out for July de deliveries and caused a weaker feeling for this delivery than for the more deferred futures. July declined IHc, recovered some and closed about ?c lower than Saturday. August de clined fa and closed Kc lower, and December closed l?c higher than Saturday. Corn There wvs a large trade in this market, which consisted principally in changing July to the more deterred deliveries, and the differ ences were widened considerably. The market opened at about Saturday's closing prices; was easv and sold off He ruled steady and closed at KQKc lower than Saturday. Oats were traded in moderatelyandasteadier feeling prevailed, but price changes were small. Mess Pork The market attracted a little more attention and the feeling was greatly un settled.

Home Securities Brace Up a Trifle, tint Petroleum Still in Bad Odor. THE NEWS AND GOSSIP OP THE" CITI Pericles being asked by a rival what good he had been to Athens, pointed to the mag nificent buildings which had been erected during his administration as the answer. A lawyer visited a client who had been jailed for a trivial offense and told him they couldn't deprive him of his liberty for such a misdemeanor as he had been guilty of. "But they have," he replied. "What I want you to do is to get me out." Cold facts cannot be set aside. The claim that Pittsburg is increasing in business at a marvelous rate is supported by figures which cannot ne refuted. They are of ficial and reliable. They have not been cooked to deceive the public and bolster up local pride, but present the situation as it is. Take last week's reports of the clearing houses of the country. Pittsburg, although unjustly ranking thirteenth or fourteenth in oopulition, is sixth in the amount of bank exchanges, being abeid of San Francisco, Baltimore and Cincinnati, and only $4,000,000 behind St. Louis. This is all the more remarkable from the fact that each of those cities is a speculative center, while Pitts burg depends altogether upon solid busmes, checking on speculative account amounting probably to less than SI. 000 a day. The volume of business transacted In 18S9 was tLe largest In the history of the city to that time. It was a year of great and profltablo activity. Bank exchanges were nearly $100,0(X), 000 greater than those for 1863. This was grati fying and encouraging. Croakers ceased to croak, and admitted that Pittsburg was quite a business place But this splendid record will be completely eclipsed this good year of grace, 189a The gain in exchanges for the first half of the year is within 125,000,000 of the total gain of 1889 over 18Si. With the same ratio main tainedand it Is more likely to Increase than diminish, as the fall and winter trade promises to be large the gain of 1S90 over 1889 will ap proximate S200.000.0IM. Iho gain last month over the corresponding period in 1SS9 was 817, 000,000 in round numbers. The heaviest trans actions In 1889 were in October, one of the best months of the year, $64,240,765 65 less than $100,000 In excess of those for the month just expired, which is usually regarded as one of the dullest. This growth Is not spasmodic or ephemeral; It hu been steadily onward and upward for a decade or more, and Is the legitimate outcome of conditions peculiar to Pittsburg, and which will make her future still more prosperous than her past has been. No city offers equal inducements to capitalists to engage in any of the great activities of the times. There are no indications of a halt in the forward movement. Business News aid Gossip. C. M. Thorp. Esq., of the Pittsburg bar, has commenced the erection of a fine residence on Locust street, Edgewood. Mr. John W. Herron, of W. A. Herron & Sous, will spend his vacation in Europe. He will sail on Friday. The big deal on the Panhandle, Involving $30,000, reported in Sunday's issue, was nego tiated by Anderson" & Beeckman, Lim.. not Anderson Blackmore, as printed. Mr. J. C. Hill has sold, through W. A. Her ron & Sons, his two lots at Edgewood for $600 each. Baxter, Thompson & Co. report that a con tract has been let for a block of 50 bouses at North Jeannettc Wall street brokers think that July will be an active month in the stock market and that prices will mount to a higher level. New York Customs House officials report the gold exports last week at $619,200, of which $505,200 went on the Normandie ts Havre, and $100,500 to Havana. , ,. , Railroad earnings: Burlington, Cedar Rap ids and Northern, third week in June, increase, $1,235; Atchison, third week June, Increase, $126,011: St. Louis and San Francisco, Including one-aalf Atlantic and Pacific third week June, increase, $225,550; New York, Lake Erie and Western, net increase month of June. $81,819. So much acreage around Pittsburg is being subdivided and put on the market in small parcels that fears are expressed in some quar ters that vegetable gardeners will be forced to abandon the business, making it necessary to look up another source of supply for the city. Business shows up $17,000,000 better for Jnne this year than for the same month in 18S9. This is a high pitch. Something must be going on. Alton Railroad officials claim that the agree ment made about 30 days ago by the Presi dents, to maintain strictly all tariffs, is not being observed between Chicago and the Missouri river, and one of these officials. In an interview, threatens to meet secret cuts openly. This looks like another rate war. Movement In Real Estate. The principal event in local real estate mat ters yesterday was the sale by Hamnett & Meredith, through Baxter. Thompson & Co., of the property on the southeast corner of Third avenue and Market street, lot 32 on Market and 62 on Third, with two three-story brick houses, for John McKelvy and others to a well known business man, for $32,000 cash. The buildings will probably be removed to make room for a fine business structure. James W. Drape & Co. placed a mortgage of $4,500, at 6 per cent, on property on Washing ton street, city, and in Stowe township. Brown & Saint sold lot No. 496 tn Valla Park plan, Brushton station, having a frontage of 40 feet on the west line of Blackadore avenue and extending back 150 feet to a 20-foot alley, for $500.

The price was bid up soon after the opening, but the longs wouldn't let go. Transactions were mostly In the way of switching to August. There was no trading in Angus: oil, which was about c higher than Jul. Oil City and Brad ford shipped in about 100,000 barrels cash oil to square accounts. Refined was down at New Yorkrand Ar.twerp. - The Straw welltof the Robella Oil Company, at Jack's Run, was sbot Sunday with a four quart charge of glycerine, and responded hand somely, throwing the fluid at least 25 feet over the derrick. During the first hour it put out 17 barrels, but yesterday morning it bad dwindled down to a slower gait, and is holding out steadily. The Harvey well of Messrs. Brycr and Flttock is down 800 feet.

B0ME HITS, SOME MISSES. Sonthwestwnrd tbe Star of Empire Trends In Petroleum These Dave. A half dozen or so of Pittsburgers seem to have struck it rich at last in Marlon county, W. Va. They are Thomas Tate, C. Klmber land, D. M. Jenkins. Walton & Elphlnstone, and another whose name was not learned. Tbey constitute the Marion Improvement Company of West Virginia. They have 3,000 acres of land atleast, and should they tire of oil develop ment, they have a five-foot vein of iron ore to work on. They began sinking a well last No vember, but it seemed to be hoodooed and never reached pay dirt until within tho past few days, the greater part of tbe winter and spring being spent in fishing. The company does not know just what it has gotten, and the members are modest In their claims, but ther have been informed that it is a good thing. At Chartlers a new well has been brought in on the May farm above the O'Brien No. L It is not very large, but is a payer. The Kanawha Company's well on the Brown place, the farth est north and east in the Chartlers field. Is still maintained as a mystery. There was a rope around tbe derrick jesterday. Many people are anxious to know the outcome, as much de pends in a bonus way on tbe result in fixing the direction.

The New York Stock Market Opens Iho Week la a Listless Manner, and but Little Bunlneia la Transacted. New York, June a Everybody expects this week, owing to the tact that it is broken by the holidays and that tbe preparations for tbe disbursements will keep money scarce, will be a dull and uninteresting one. and to-day did much to verify the expectation. Although there is a general feeling that there will be a materia improvement in both prices and busi ness after the holidays, there is no disposition as yet to buy on the favorable prospects, and tbe tightness with which stocks are held offers no Inducement to the bears to mako any special attempt to break prices in the meantime. To day's market, therefore, presented the usual firm front where leit to itself, and shows very few features worthy of note. Improved outlook for the Coal stocks infused a little life into the Coal stocks, and the aspect of affairs in the Southwestern made Atcblson leader In point of activity, thoiigb. Its move ments were confined to the smallest limits. The advancing tendency extended to all portions of the list, notwithstanding tbe tact that money was loaning at high rates, and the efforts of the bears to crp&tn a. mnnav tMrR on the tem porary scarcity over tbe first of the month. 4The trusts were dull with the regular list, al though Sugar as usual led in amount of trans actions and in tho width of its fluctuations. The latter, however, was comparatively small, its extreme range being about IK per cent. ' The only specially shares movement was In Manhattan, which moved np from 108K to lllli, ana Pullman, which, after selling up to 219, retired to 21b. In the last hour, however, money eased off again and its movement, which baa been sluggish all day, became more active. The close was dull but strong at tbe highest prices of the day. Among the notable advances scored were New England, 1; Chicago Gas and Canadian Pacific Vi. each; Ontario and Western, IK and Big four, Lackawanna, Louisville and Nashville and St. Paul. 1 .per cent, and sugar refineries, 2 per cent. Rail road bonds were dull and firm as usual and the trading possessed little or no character, and no feature of interest marked the trading. Tho sales of all Issues reached $862,000 but there was 110 animation anywhere in the list, while the business done was rather widely distributed. Knoxville and Ohio firsts rose 2 to 1C3. Government bonds have been dull and steady. State bonds haye been dull and featureless. The Post says: 1 his forenoon It was reported by cable from London that tbe National Bank of Buenos Ayres had failed. At first this had rather an ominous sound, especially as it is well known that large amounts of gold have been sent in the last six months from London to both Brazil and Buenos Ayres to help sustain the bank there, and that this was done with tbe view to sustaining the credit of the various Brazilian and Argentine National securities, which have been so largely marketed in Europe. Any such failure as that of the chief bank of tho Republic would, of conrse, affect tbe credit of the national securi ties and be a cause for some monetary disturb ance in Europe. But later the report was de nied, and the osly thing confirmed was that the National Bank of Buenos Ayres bad suspended dividends. The foreign markets, however, were entirely undisturbed by this news, and on tbe contrary London continued a buyer of American railroad stocks. lhe following utile snows tne prices or active stocks on tne New York Stock Exchange yester day.
