LIYE STOCK KEYIEW. Light Run of Cattle at East Liberty and Prices a Shade Higher. LIGHT BUTCHER BEEVES SCARCE. Quality of This Week's Cattle Eeceipts Below the Standard. BHEEP BTEADI AND SWINE HIGHER OFFICE OF riTTSBtrilO DlSrATCH. I Wednesday. July 9. 1S90. There were 72 loads of cattle on the local market this week, against 125 last week. At the opening of markets on Monday morning there was a strong feeling with commission men that prices should be ad vanced 25c per cwt. all alocg the line. But demand was light and trade was sluggish at an advance of 10c to 15e on prices of last week. "With a run as large as that of last week or the week before there would haTe been no advance In prices. The quality of beeves on the market this week was hardly up to standard. About one-third o receipts wero country crass cattle, not fully ripe, a grade that Is not wanted in this market. There were about 25 loads of good butcher cattle of light weight, mostly from Chicago. The grade weighing from 1,000 to 1,300 lbs was in good demand at 15c per cnt. higher than prices of last week. Outside of this handy quality of cattle which our home butchers -want, ths balance were cither too big and bonv, or too light and mixed for our local trade, and hence did not share fully in the ad vance, lint even the lowest grades were a shade higher than last week. Grassers arc not wanted in this market at present, and farmers will do better to withhold them. Those who wanted stockers as a rule laid m supplies a month ago. Unripe cattle will not be wanted until Eastern farmers get through with their crops. In the present con dition of markets the farmer who has grassers will be wise to withhold them until trade im proves. At present prices for this grade there ' Is littlo profit if any to the shipper. The hlgh- J est price obtained thi. week fora load of prime S 1,400 lb beeves was ti TO. j ' Prevailing Price. The ra Jge f or L200 and 1,300-B cattle to-day and smooth was 54 20 to S4 S3. Good 1.000 to 1,100 11 beeves ranged from $4 00 to 54 20. Fresh cows and springers sold at $25 to 35 a bead. Dry cows and bulls were dull at a range of 2c to Sc per &, In general there was no improve ment in values of cattle this week over last. The advance was entirely owing to the heavy decline in receipts. .The supply ot good butcher stock of light weight was, for the first time in many weeks, short of demand, and hence the activity ot markets for this grade at advanced prices. The market for sheep and lambs varied very little this week from last. General features were much the same. Receipts this week ere less than last, and qualiiv also showed a falling off. The best price paid lor sheer was $5 10, and this only for a single deck of choice Hock. Lambs and yearling were in light supplv, and sold more rapidly than sheep. This morning the pens were almost cleared up, there being but a single deck on the market. The run of hogs has been light all the week, find murkets were active at advanced prices. On Monday there were 24 loads on tho market, rind all were promptly taken at $4 to 51 10. U'ucsrtaj's receipts wero vcrv light, there being nly2or31oad9on sale. This morning there 'were 6 orTcarload on the market, and de mand was active at 51 10 to $4 15 per 100 fts. At Chicago this morning, with receipts ot 2Q.UX) bead, the outside price was 53 95, according to telegram received by ono of our pork packing firms from their agent there.

BOBEOWnra THE LIVEEY OF HEAVES' In Order to Defraud UnnuBpectlcir nnd Innocent Pnrtlcs. KW Yokk, July 9. On the 1st of July a man calling himself Louis Lerew, called on the Eev. J. . McDonnell, Driest of the lloman Catholic Church at Huntingdon, Pa., and presented what purported to be a letter of introduction from Bishop Foley, of Detroit, Mich. The letter stated that Lerew was the executor of a man named Harmon, who had died and left a legacy of 52,000 to this church, and that Lerew would pay it to him. He gave Father McDonnell a dralt on the National Park Hank, of New York, for $2,000, drawn to the order of Louis Lerew, dated Philadel phia, June 28, payable two days after date , and signed iiallowell, Kieff&'Co. Belore ' he- lelt. Father McDonnell asked him whether he had incurred any expenses and Lerew replied that there would be a record ing fee of about 55. This Father McDon nell paid him. The First National Bank of Huntingdon forwarded the draft for collection apd re ceived it back on Julv 8 with the word "fraud" written across the face. In the meantime, Father McDonnell had written to Bishop Foley and received a replv that the letter was a forgery. As Lerew at tempted to secure only a small fee, and that only when suggested to him, and as he took 3'receipt for the 52,000 from Father McDon nell, it is conjectured that this is only part of a plan to defraud hanks or individuals. g New York ailnlnc "tocl.

Wheat Quiet nnd Values on a tower Level More Favorable Wentfaer for Grow Ins Crcps Corn nnd Onti Active Pork Neglected. CHICAGO Wheat-Only a light trade was reported to-day, and tho market ruled steady within a lower range of prices. There was nothing special In outside news and operators were rather inclined to await developments. The market opened KSC lower and ruled steady most of the session, with fluctuations confined within Kc range, but closed KK lower than yesterday. December showed rather the most strength. The weather turned much cooler in the Northwest and more favor able for the growing crop. Light rains were reported in Kansas, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa and Missouri. Corn was traded in to a fair extent, price changes being frequent within a Jc range, the feeling prevailing being a little unsettled, but prices on the whole range averaged higher. Early trading was at ia under the closing prices of yesterday. About the middle of the session, on good buying, said to be for New York account, there was a bulse of ?ic. The early weakness was attributed some to reports of rain and cooler weather in some sections of the corn belt. Oats There was a general evening up of trades. One large operator sold over 600.000 bushels for September; also a liberal quantity for May. The offerings were readily taken by shorts who were anxious to cover, and their purchases prevented a decline in prices. Price changes wore confined to c range. Mess Pork Very little business was trans acted. Prices rather favored buyers. Lard Trading was only fairly active. Prices declined 2c early, but rallied 25c, and the market closed steady at outside figures. Short Rib Sides A moderate business was transacted. Prices rnled about 2c lower early in the day. but rallied again later, though the close was comparatively easy. The leading rutures rangea as follows: WHEAT No. 2. Julv. 8e&J687S7Jic: August.

New Yoke, Joly 9. Great relief has been experienced to-day from the heat of yesterday. A fine breeze has blown steadily from the northwest at the rate of 24 miles an hour, and the rays of the sun have occa sionallv been cutotT by clouds. At noon it was 85&. Only six deaths from prostration have so far been reported by the police. Over in the City of Churches the warm weather lias also paralyzed business. Very lew persons are to be seen on the streets. The heat has also been exceedingly severe od the bricklayers, rooiers, painters, hod carriers, carpenters and longshoremen. The men in the employ of the big sugar refin eries in Williamsburg are among the prin cipal sufferers. Three cases are reported to have succumbed this morning. AXTHOuon Piatt's Chlorides is an odorless liquid, its disinfecting power is great Try it THE WINDY CITY REALTY. A Chicago Broker Predicts a Collapse of the Keal Estate Boom. PITTSBDK0 INVESTORS HOPEFUL. Local Stocks Show Ko Material Change, lot Petroleum Moves Down a Peg. THE HEWS AND GOSSIP OP THE CITY Ihere are two ways of looking at the real estate whirl which is now afflicting Chicago one through a conservative and the other through an enthusiastic medium. A Chi cago broker, who was in this city on Mon day, in conversation.with a Fourth avenue dealer, spoke from the conservative side of the question, and his views were the reverse of encouraging to Eastern people who have been for several months buying Windy City realty right and left He said that two or three yars ago a syndicate was organized, composed of a number of the leading capi talists of Chicago, who proceeded to buy up everything they could get hold of. Prices were down, and they operated on the idea that Chicago would get the Colnmbian Fair, and that a boom would follow. In this they were not mistaken. The boom is on, and the syndicate, alive to the fact that a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, are now unloading upon Eastern men suckers, as be called them. He did not look for a bad break in values until after the fair, but was confident it would speedily follow that event as the city was both oversold and overbuilt On the other band the enthusiasts think they have struck a bonanza. In conversation with one of tbem yesterday, he said that his purchases in Chicago promised to be the most profitable investments he had ever made. Con jointly with two other Pittsburg capitalists, he bad, about six months ago, bought 60 acres in the western part of Chicago, and could sell at any time at a handsome profit but they had concluded to wait for further enhancement. In the meantime they will improve their prop erty and put up a number of dwellings as the nucleus of a settlement He had no fear of a collapse, holding that the business importance of Chicago its greatness as a distributing cen terwas a guarantee against material depres sion in landed property. Another Pittsburg gentleman an iron manufacturer held sub stantially the same views. A prominent pork packer on Liberty street who Is In the 60-aore deal was even more Bangulno of large gains. Between opinions so positive and bo opposite it is hard to choose, and Pittsburg capitalists who have ambition to speculate in Chicago realty must take all the chances and run all the risks. It would be better for them, be cause safer, to speculate at home, where they mado tbclr money, and do their part in the work of developing the city. Abundant oppor tunities for investment, an active and stable market with enhancement of values certain, are inducements which should not be subordin ated to doubtful schemes in a distant city. The Westlnslioune Stntrmont. The main topic of interest on Fourth avenue yesterday was the Wcstlnghouse Electric Com pany's statement. As might have been ex pected, the wiseacres had different opinions. The item which most challenged criticism was the figure of over 4,000.000 on the assets for patents. It was doubted whother any such sum could be set, as their value depended wholly upon the future outcome of the busi ness. On the other hand it was contended that this valuation had not been increased for Tuesday's meeting; that it was the same old value which had for a long while been put upon them. There was littlo of the stock offered. IJo.IoeM Ncvra and Gossip. Store mortgages are being paid oft than placed. This could not be done if times wero not prosperous. The excavation for the Vandergrlft building on Fourth avenue Is about completed. It is understood the captain failed in his efforts to secure tho Fitzsimmons property. Thirty-six mortgages were put on record yes terday. The largest was for $75,000, given by Charles L. Davis (Alvin Joslyn) to D. S. Wil son et ux for purchase money. This relates to the property on which Mr. Davis proposes to erect a theater. Improvement at the new town of Mendels sohn is going forward rapidly. Foundations for the piano factory have been completed, and work on the railroad shops will begin in a few days. The last load of household goods was taken from tne Edgewood station house yesterday. The work of tearing down or removing the building will commence on the 15th. The new station will be ready lor use by October. A prominent stockbroker on Fourth avenue, who is well up In theology, remarked yester day that he bad lately read Swedenbonrg, one of whose tenets is that men will follow the same business in the next world that they pur sued in this. "Imagine," be said, "a member of the Pittsburg Exchange selling corner lots in the New Jerusalem, and another manipu lating a corner in angels' food. How ridicu lous." Mr. C. Beringer said yesterday! that electric cars will be running into Emsworth in con siderably less than two years. Among dividends declared are 3 per cent by the Western Insurance Company, 3 per cent by the Union Insnrance Company, and 3 per cent by the Artisans' Insurance Company all semi annual. It was semi-ofnclally stated yesterday that the directors of tho People's Bank for Savings had made no choice of a successor to N. G. Von Bonnhorst late secretary and treasurer.

WESTINGHOJJSE ELECTRIC. Favorable Terms Upon Which Stockholders Cnn Subscribe to Ibe Increased Capital block A Flaticrlns Showing. Office of Westinohodse Electric and Manufacturing Co.. Pittsburg. Pa.. July 8, lfc90. To the Stockholders of the Wcstlnghouse Elec tric and Manufacturing Co.: Gentlemen At a meeting of the stock holders of your company held this day, the fol lowing: resolution was unanimously adopted (Tho vote in ravor of the resolution being 87, 467 out of total ot 94,201 shares, and no votes against it): Resolved. That the cipltal stock of this com pany be, and the simo Is hercbv, increased from Ki,(iuo,lioo to 10, 000,000, SI, 000,000 of such Increase to be Issued by the Board of Directors from time to time, as In Its Judgment may seein for the best interests orthecompanv. but any further Issue to bo subject to the anion of a bpecl.il meeting of tho stockholders called for the purpose. The business, actively begun in 18S7, was well settled for tho year 18S9. During that year the sales of the company nnd its leased companies, amounted to 5-1,362,115 22, Melding a net profit ot 72.,S07 87, or 15 0-10 percenton tho capital Btock of the company. Owing to the improvements in the manufact ure of our apparatus, and the able manner in which tho field of electri: lighting has been ex ploited by this company, the natural increase of the business lias brought the volume of our sales during the last few months to far In excess of the corresponding period of the preceding years. At the ramo time, the completion ot our systems has enabled us to cut off large ex penses. Inherent to the experimental stages of the art, and your management has accom plished other matorial reductions in many of the extraordinary expenses which were una voidable In the development of the company's business. Besides the natural increase of business due to the success of our apparatus, and the good business management of the company, there has been openod to us an extended field of electrical enterprise in the furnishing and equipping of electric railways, which we are prepared to enter with apparatus more efficient in every respect than any which has so far been placed in tho market by our conmetitors. Or ders for this branch of our work are being re ceived in such quantity that we are justified in anticipating within the next 12 months an ad dition In volume to our present sales of ap proaching 100 per cent without a correspond ing increase of expense. In fact, the business for the first five months of this year showed an increase of Pity (50) per cent exclusive of elec tric street railway work; bnr, taking that into consideration, an increase of nearly ninety (90) percent. Owing to the large Investment made neces sary to perfect our patent position, and to en large our manufacturing facilities to meet the continually increasing business, your manage ment has not deemed it wise to enter this new and profitable field without sufficient means at its command to conduct the business profitably and with due regard to your piesent interests. It therefore, takes pleasure in offering to tho present stockholders of the company the right to subscribe to the increase of capital stock authorized at the stockholders' meeting held to-day, upon the following advantageous terms: One-half of onesharo for each share now standing in your respective names on the books of the company, at the rate of forty (40) dol lars per share, pa) able in four equal install ments on the first days or August September, October and November, 1890. Those who are entitled to subscribe for half shares may sub scribe for whole shares; subscriptions to half shares will not be received. An assignable right to subscribe for your proportion ol stock on the above terms is inclosed herewith. Of the authorized increase of stock your President has subscribed in the sum of l"250, 000, and other parties stand ready to take an amount equal to what shall have been sub scribed for by the stockholders on or before August 1. 189a You will readily see that your prompt action in this matter will enable yonr management to make laige profits in this new field of electrical business without delay. The earnings of the company are such that the regular payment of dividends will be made practicable by the placing of this new stock, which the stockholders are receiving on a basis equal to a dividend of 10 per cent, on their present holdings. Respectfully, Westinghouse Electric and Man'f'g Co. George Westinghouse, Jr., President P. S. A copy of a Pittsburg paper containing the report read at the meeting has been mailed to you.

Opinion In tho GnOy-IIuklll Bait The Lnw as Applied to Land Owners and Oil Lenses A Plain Review of tho De cision. A week or so ago aratherunsatisfaetory tele graphic condensation of the Supreme Court of Appeals of West Virginia in the case of Guffy and Murphy was published. As the decision interests oil men and owners of oil lands, a clearer review of the matter is given here with. The case Involved the right to operate for oil and gas on a tract of 30 acres of land in Cass district, Monongalia county, leased in July, 1S86, to Rezin Calvert and David Wise for oil and gas operations. The case came on for trial February 22 last Plaintiffs showed the lease from Wise to Calvert running 30 years, or as long as oil may be found in paying quantities; one well to be completed in six months, and in case of failure to complete such well, lessee to Eay a yearly 1 ental of 50 cents per acre, paya Ie every six mouths, as full payment for such delay. The defenso offered In evidence tho original lease from David Wise to William Hays, it be ing admitted by defendant that the signature of David Wise was not at the end of said lease, following the closingwords thereof. Tbecourt admitted the lease in evidence as an unrecorded document the lease showing Wise let the land to Hays for one-eighth the oil and 20 a year for each gas well, operations to commence in nine months'or to pay $1 S3J4 per month, and ending with the following: "And a failure on the part of said second party to comply with either the one or the other of the foregoing conditions shall work an absolute forfeiture of the lease." EM. Hukill showed he began'operatlons on tho tract in question in May, 18S9, and 'got oil Kovember25,18S9. In rebuttal Guffy fc Murphy showed they had notified Hukill to cease operations on July 15, 1SS9, stating they had a prior lease. The court gave the plaintiffs judgment for posses sion and costs, but the defendant appealed, with the result above chronicled. Following is the syllabus of Judge Brannon's decision: Whereas, a lease for years contains a clause of forfeiture for breach of its covenant to pay rent or other covenant, but no clause of re-entry for such forfeiture, demand and re entry is not the only mode by which the land lord may enforce the forfeiture. A lease for years for drilling for petroleum oil or gas contains a provision: "The parties of the second part covenent to commence op erations for said purposes within nine months from and after the execution of this lease, or to thereafter pay to the party of the first part SI 334 per month until work is commenced the money to be deposited in the hands of John Kennedy for each and every month. And a failure on the part of said second par ties to comply with either one or other of the foregoing conditions shall work an absolute forfeiture of this lease;" and there is no cove nant for re-entry, and there is failure to com mence operations and to pay money in lieu thereof, and the lesor leases to another per son. Held, the first lease Is thus avoided, and the second lease is good against it as the execu tion of the second lease is a sufficient declara tion of forfeiture, without demand or re-entry. The second lessee may maintain unlawful de tainer against the first lessee in possession. Thousands of acres have been leased in West Virginia, says the Wheeling Intelligence with tho stipulation that development-was to begin at a certain time, until which time the lessee was to hold by paying rental. For the most part there has been no development, and In hundreds, almost thousands, of cases no rental Is being paid. The decision of the Supreme Court ot Appeals knocks this sort of thing squarely on tlio head, and with It that fine technical quibble that before the land owner' can regain possession he must go through an old common law proceeding known as re-entry. Tho Court holds that, never having been out of the possession the landlord does not have to regain possession, and that a man cannot be re quired to enter on himself. A SLOW ABTICIE. Oil Lets Go In Ibo Face of a Bullish Report. Tho pipe line report due to-day, which will undoubtedly be very bullish, should have caused a strong oil market yesterday, but such was not tho case. It was fairly steady at tho opening and hung around the Initial figure, 89c, until tho last few minutes, when Oil City hammered it down to 8Sc, which was the quo tation at the close. There was very littlo trading at any of tho exchanges. The ranee was: Opening and highest SOJc: lowest and closing, 88c, show ing only one fluctuation and a range ot IK cent. Tuesday's clearances were 292,000 barrel. Features of Ye.terday' Oil Marker. Corrected daily by John M.

MUCH HKEMIOAWBEB. Wall Street Waiting for Something to Tarn Up Kew York as a Market for American Securities Gas Trust Stock Declines. New York, July 9. The holidays have passed, tho July disbursements are out of tho way, and the shifting of loans in consequence of disbursements must now be completed, but the demand forsecurities expected does not as yet make its appearance. Even in the bond department, where an investment demand is likely to be first felt there is no more anima tion or strength than in the share list and the advocates of higher prices are disappointed, to say the least, and are casting around for an ex planation for tho failure of the little boom to materialize. The last one offered is that Lon don has as yet had no timo to recover from the effects of the monetary disturbances in South America, and in fact those disturbances are not yet past, as the alarming reports from that quarter indicate. When London recovers from these disturbances tney say there will again spring up a demand for American securities, and the expected rise will then occur. The fact remains, however that New York leads the market for Americm securities, and London and the rest of the world follows until there is less apathy on the partof domestic speculators, London is not likely to take hold in a large way of our stocks. The Conference Committee has agreed upon a silver bill, but the expected legislation on that subject no longer seems to have power to move tho market cither up or down, and operators are now waiting for tho railroad troubles to be adjusted, and of late the impression has grown that some or the most influential railroad magnates of the railroad world are lukewarm in their desire to fix mat ters, their ultimate object being a modification or repeal of the inter-Stato law or tho long and short haul clause. The market is left sensi tive to small influences. But nothing seems to have power to move it more than fractions. To-day the strong tone of yesterday was re versed by the weakness of Chicago Gas under the combined effects of the prouosed opposi tion and the rumored action to be taken by tho Chicago city authorities to nullify the charters of the companies composing the trust The declines resulting had more the appearance of a well executed raid on the general list how ever, than an effect of the weakness of Chi cago Gas, and late in tho day there was con-' siderable recovery of the early losses. The business acain came to the front in the last hour, however, with a scare abont an advance in the rate of discount of the Bank of En gland and a further export of gold from this port. The close was weak at about the lowe't prices of the day. The selling was principally In the Grangers and the London iavontes, and New England is down 1; Chicago Gas and St. Paul, lfi each; Louisville and Nashville, 1: Readin?. Union P.ieiHe and Wheeling and Lake Erie preferred. IK eacb, and Colorado Coal, Big Four, Rock Island, Pacific Mail, 1 1890. ?er cent each, and others fractional amounts, here were a few advances among the special ties, and Edison General Electric rose IK- . Railroad bonds, sales 953,000; only' slight changes were scored except in a few issnes. The tone was rather heavy at first, but steadied later In the day. Atchison incomes remained weak throughout St Paul and Northern Pa cific 6s rose 3 to 125. .... Government bonds have been dull andsteady. State bonds have been generally neglected. The rost says: New Eneland was weak be cause it had been advanced by mere manipula tion, and the change In the tone of the market to-day made it difflcultlfor the small speculator to hold it So far as the reported sale of the road is concerned, there Is no more reason to believe that it has been sold this time than there was to believe any of the 20 other similar reports about it in the last two or three years. Those who have given the position: of the New England a good deal of consideration do not believe that the New York and New Haven will venture to take it alone, and that no sale of the control of the New Eng land will be made until the Boston and Albany and the Shore Line people are perfectly satis fied with the arrangement. The New Haven road is now dependent upon these roads for its lines to Boston, and to cut loose from tbem and take the New England would only make the other Hues build to New York, and so by competition ruin the whole business. Chicago Gas was sold mainly on Chicago orders, and concurrent with the report from there that "the city authorities are about to institute suits against the Chicago Gas Trust to annul the charters of tho companies which went into the consolidation." It has been a foregone conclusion that the Gas Trust must give place to a larger single corporation as soon as It can be decided which one of the present corporations shall buy out the others, and in that case the charters of all the others would be surrendered anyhow.

Tomatoes are coming In more freely, and prices are weakening. Home-grown toma toes will ere long be to the front, and home grown potatoes are already nere in limited quantity. In the line of dairy products choice creamery butter is firm, and country butter is dull. Ohio cheese is in full supply, but demand is good at quotations. New York cheese is also coming in more freely, but there is no ac cumulation of stock. Strictly fresh nearby eggs are very scarce and outside quotations are easily obtained.
