CARS ARE STILL SCARCE.
Coke Continue! to Accumulate In the Tarda
Shipments Slisbtly Increased Ko La
bor Troubles Few Ovens Idle.
rSFECIAL TELEGRAM TO TUX SISFATCB.1
ScoTTDAM. August 23. The condition of
the coke market is practically the Bame as last
week. Shipments increased, bnt the advance,
although not great, was not what it would have
been had transportation facilities been better.
Coke is accumulating in the yards of some of
the plants to a considerable extent. Orders are
quite plentiful and prices firm. That the de
ficiency in car supply Is detrimental to trade is
making itself fully manifest. An operator
thus describes the situation: "The coke trade
can be fittingly described as nnsteady, though
the demand is very active. Tbe poor car sup
ply is the barrier to its success. Cars are
nearly as scarce now as a few months aj:o when
a number of individual cars were constructed
for tbe service of the larger companies."
The cars are short on Vie Baltimore and
Ohio, Pennsylvania and PeriJickey roads. The
direct causes of tbe scarcity cannot be ascer
tained, but the present railroad difficulties at
New York and Cbicagu may be at tbe back of
it. Many places will be forced to restrict pro
duction if relief is not soon tortbeoming. Tbe
works are still operating fire and six days. Tbe
JlcUlure, Stewart, Percy. Tavlor, Southwest
and Ralney companies are still operating, sis
days.
The idle list of ovens numbers about 2,300. It
is understood tbat tbe Oliver Coke Companv,
of Pittsburg, will erect 300 ovens in the region
on the Thaw estate. Stark Brothers, contract
ors, are pushing the work of constructing 350
new ovens at Becla No. 2. The tno Leisen
riug plants of 1,000 ovens are still out of opera
tion. Tbe Umonaale plant of 72 ovens is out of
blast. It will be fired next week.
The coke works will all be idle next Monday
to enable employesto observe-Labor Day.
There is no trouble reported in labor circles.
Tbe Valley and Tiptop plants are in full opera
tion. Shipments last week averaged about
' 1,121 cars per day, as compared with 1,062 cars
per day of the previous week, or a total in
crease of 340 cars. The shipments were distrib
uted to the points of consumption as follows:
To points west of Pittsburg, 4,000 cars; to Pitts
burg and river points. 1,501) can-: to points east
of Pittsburg, 1,225 cars: total. 6,725 cars. This

HETAL MARKETS ABE0AD.
The Tin Plate Situation Is Decidedly a Com
plicated One.
rsrrciAx. tzxeorui to tbe dispatch, i
NettYobk, August 28. The Jron Age to
day quotes the foreign metal markets as fol
lows, from London. Operations in pig iron
- warrants have continued on a large scale, and
- pnees advanced further all along the line,
Scotch going to 50s3 d, Cleveland to 47s 6d, and
Hematites to 57a lod. At the close Tuesday
there was a reaction to 19s lid for Scotch, and
7s for Cleveland, On Wednesday's market
- the latter sold at 48s 10d47s, Scotch
at 49s 10d50s, and Hematites at 58s
fid. Operators on the "bear" side have
covered up a large line of "short" accounts to
which fact is partly due the rise in prices,
but labor agitation by f urnacemen in the inter
est of Increase ip wages has stimulated outside
buvers to some extent. Tbe bnlk of stock is
held by strong outsiders, wholhave operated
freely of late and express confidence in still
higher values. Greater activity has been man
ifested the past week than for some time
previous tn all iron centers, and prices are de
cidedly firmer throughout. Welsh steel
workers are asking for 10 per cent advance in
wages, prices for steel ship plates have been
advanced to 6 10s. in North of England. Bails
are very firm, wire rods the same.but billets and
slabs are rather irregular. Masters' prices for
nearly alt varieties of pig iron are higher with
tbe advance in warrants.
Block tin for prompt delivery had advanced
to 97 17s 6d for prompt delivery, and tbe de
mand has been brisk. Shortness of supplies is
chiefly Instrumental in forcing prices up.
Stocks here are very low at the present time
and any lessening of arrivals from the straits
would cause a rapid rise in prices. Copper is
strong with business in merchant bar
prompts at as high as 60 5s. The market re
ceives strong support from the principal opera
tors, and rome holders who sold freely at 60
early in the week are now standing aloof. Con
sumption continues good despite the high
prices ruling. The tinplate market is excited,
,and makers and buyers are still wide apart on
--prices. The demand is large. Steel cokes have
touched 15s on actual sale, and the tendency of
i makers Is to bold for a farther advance owing
Jfcfto the upward tendency of the iron and pig tin
j markets.

rivals nod Departures.
A stranger would suppose that the river was
tbe only medium tbrough which Pittsburg re
lied upon to condnct her business witb tbe
outer world if he happened along the wharf
yesterday. Freight for the four packet boats
covered the whole wharf. As one riverman
said: "To look at this, it appears that the rail
roads are not in the scramble at all for river
freight" Indeed business uas almost as heavy
as on the previous day, when all the towboats
were our, and tbe bustle and bustle was all oc
casioned bythe four packet boats.
Tbe worst of tbe freshet of Wednesday seems

point it rose to 8.9 throughout the rest of the
afternoon. At 6 P. II. 9 feet was reported in
tbe Ohio Some few coal operators are almost
confident that the present water will remain
for the rest nf tbe season.
Three or fonr towboats had to remain behind
on account of the scarcity of deck hands.

THINGS PICKING- UP.
The Alchemy of Cool Weather Touches
the Real Estate interest.
INQUIRIES ALREADY POURING IN.
Speculation Still in the Domes, but a Ee
tival Somew here on tbe Way.
TEE KEWS AND GOSblP OP THE 8lTI
There was an air of business in nearly all
of the real estate offices yesterday, which
furnished irrefutable proof that this inter
est is looking up, having passed the summer
lull and entered upon the fall movement.
A member ot one firm said: "We have had
more inquiries and offers in the last few days
than during all the rest of the month. We
have been very busy to-day."
The inquiry is broadening as well as in
creasing, taking in properties that have been
on the shelf for seveYal months, and embrac
ing districts that have been comparatively
neglected since the spring rush. Business
property is again coming to the frdht, show
ing a disposition to expand in this direction.
Owing to its scarcity in the central part of the
city, it is being sought along Penn and Fifth
avenues, and to some extent on other thorough
fares. The demand for small dwellings is becoming
more importunate as winter approaches. Much
of It comes from outsiders who desire to locate
here to enjoy the benefits of steady work and
good wages. These people should be taken care
of, but the.cbances are that many of them will
find it impossible to secure accommodations,
and stay away. Capitalists should stick a pin
here.
A Philadelphia Iden.
Here is something of interest to Pittsburg
builders: There is a law in Philadelphia to
compel the builder of a house whose founda
tions are to be lower tban that of an adjoining
building to "underpin'" the foundation of the
older structure; where it is a party wall, to the
depth of the new building tbat is, deepen the
foundation by extending it to a greater depth
than it formerly was. This is done by buildlne
under tbe foundation in sections. Although the
operation called "underpinning" may be care
fully and properly done, there is always some
danger attached to it Often the underpinned
foundation cracks and the value nf tbe house,
falls. The cost of the underpinning is sus
tained by the latest builder.
Building Inspector Martin, of that city, in
speaking of this matter said, as reported in the
Record: "The Board of Inspectors has -often
recommended that a law be passed prescribing,
that tbe foundation be deeper, or where under
pinning Is necessary that the cost be divided.
The present legal specification is that tbe
foundations be laid at a depth to secure safety;
that is below frost Personally, I think it
would be much safer and more senible if we
bnilt our foundations low enough to avoid the
necessity of underpinning."
Business News and Gossip.
Mr. Breslin, proprietor of the Gilsey House,
New York, said to a representative of The

Stock Traders Persevere In Their Effort to
Dtabo Business.
There was a fair attendance of brokers at
both of the stock calls yesterday, but resulting
business was disappointing. There were three
trades, footing up 150 shares. The only active
interests were Philadelphia Gas and Luster.
The decline in Luster was not only checked,
but an upward movement started. It sold at 25
and closed at 26 bid, against 21 tbe previous
day. Philadelphia Gas went at 30, closing at
that figure a fractional improvement Manu
facturers' Gas came out of retirement on a bid
of 14. The rest of tbe list showed little change
and was uninteresting.
A broker described the situation thus: "It
is a waiting market: Investors are pretty well
loaded up and will take nothing but cheap
stuff, while sellers, believing tbat things are
scraping bottom, aro disposed to hold out a
while longer. In thlsl think the chances are
in tbeir favor."

After Passing Thronsh Three Months of
Financial Storm the New York
' Stock Market Shows a Strong;
Front Pnnlc Averted.
New Yoek. August 2t The stock market
to-day exhibited a strong tone, and material re
coveries n ere made of tbe losses of yesterday,
though in but few stocks are there final changes
of importance. Tbe news of the day was al
most uniformly of an encouraging nature, es
8peclally in that relation ta the strikes, though
money was a little dearer, and the impression
that it will work for the remainder of tbe week
acted as a restricting element on purchases.
To-morrow is expected to see higher sales not
only on .account of the approaching quarterly
settlements, but also because of tbe fact that
owing to tbe rule which makes all loans run
until Monday, there are usually considerable
amounts held off the market to provide for
possible contingencies of Saturday. After the
payments ot, the quarterly interest and divi
dends It is expected tbat there will be no
further trouble for some time. The Bank of
England rate of discount remained unchanged
this morning. London .operators bought more
freely in this market this morning and gave an
impetus to the early trading which otherwise
the matket would have lacked, and, while the
purchases for the long account by domestic
operators were small, the desire to cover over
kept tbe upward movement going on a very re
stricted business. The news of the practical
failure of the stockyards strike In Chicago
made Rock Island a favorite, and it displayed
more strength than any stock in the regular
list outside of the few specialties which are
advanced by circumstances peculiar to them
selves. Sugar refineries, after an early decline, was
rather sharply advanced, but tbe rest of the
unlisted departments were practically dead,
notwithstanding the efforts to boom lead.
Silver was stronger bnt dull, and in the after
noon New England made one of its sharp ad
vances on an increased business witbout ap
parently affecting tbe remainder of the list in
any way. Hocking Valley came to tbe front
with a sharp advance said to be based upon
the good showing of tbe earnings. Louisville
and Nashville was the favorite of the foreign
ers and displayed a stubborn strength, which
carried it up materially before the close of the
day. There was heavy coveting in Rock
Island, but renewed sales for tbe short ac
count late in the day neutralized most of tbe
improvement Union Pacific which was sold
by Boston yesterday, was bought back again to
day when there was a certainty tbat the failures
there would not result in any stock coming
upon the market The traders realized on the
advance of tbe day in the last hour, but
the selling failed to cause a material reaction,
and tne close as steady at a shade under the
best prices, while the undertone was still firm.
Tbe whole active list is higher, and Hocking
Valley is up IK; Burlington and Qnincy,
Chicago Gas, Louisville and Nashville, South
ern Pacific and Union Pacific each 1J-J. and
Oregon Transcontinental receipts 1 per cent. .
Railroad bonds were more active and dis
played a steady to firm tone, although there
were no marked movements in the list Gov
eminent bonds have been dull and heavy. State
bonds have been dull and featureless.
The -Post says: All this considered, the stock
market continues to present a remarkably
strong front, notwithstanding its extreme nar
rowness. Now that matters seem to be assum
ing a little better aspect it is worth while to
remember that the stock market has passed
through a series of events in a little less than
three months which, in anycondltion of stock
speculation, would have caused many failures
and probably a panic, but in this case withont
a single failure.

Groceries
Sugars are advanced a all along the line, as
quotations below will reveal. Package coffee
still sells at the old figures, but tbere should be
an advance to correspond with prices ot green
coffee. Teas are very firm at tbe recent ad
vance, and tbe 'drift is toward higher prices.
All canned frnits are tending upward. The
same is true of dried and evaporated fruits.
Wholesale grocers report an uusually active
trade for the time of tbe year. The amount of
goods bandied in August of 1890 exceeds any
corresponding month in the history of the
trade. Some wholesale grocers report trade
entirely too brisk for comfort The stuff Is
more valuable than modey.

Wheat and Corn Continue Their Downward
Movement Oats Active on Covering
by Shorts Pork Loses Ground
Lard and Ribs steady.
CHICAGO Wheat Free liquidation had a
depressing effect upon the market to-day, and
prices were nearly 5c per bnshel lower for
December at one time tban the highest figures
reached yesterday. The opening was Hc
lower than yesterday's closing, and soon ruled
off Jc more, then rallied c, bnt free offerings
again created weakness, and a decline of 2c,
then ruled steadier and closed about 2c lower
for December and 2c lower for May than yes
terday. Corn The weakness that was manifested In
this market yesterday was continued, and still
lower prices were established. There was some
covering by local shorts early, which had a ten
dency to sustain prices, as also tbe buying of a
large speculator.Off eringstecame heavier asthe
session advanced, and the only support being
taken from the market prices ruled weak and
declined with very little reaction 11c ral
lied some, ruled steady and closed with a loss
of leijic.
Oats The market was active witb trading on
a more extended scale, with a wider range of
prices. An Unsettled feeling prevailed, es
pecially in August, which, after an advance of
tie on covering by shorts, weakened and de
clined lc. Tbe other futures ooened easy,
and, after a slight decline at tbe opening, be
came stronger and advanced Kc Tbe de
cline in wheat and corn, also tne heavy selling
by several of tbe largest traders, produced a
weak feeling and prices receded 91c, and the
market finally- closed quiet at almost inside
figures.
Mess Pnrk A fairly active trade was re
ported with a weak feeling during tbe greater
portion of the session. Offerings were moder
ately f ree,especially of tbe deferred deliveries,
and tbe inquiry was fair and chiefly from local
shorts. Prices on tbe whole range rnled2025c
lower, and the market closed quiet at about in
side figures.
Lard Trading was moderate. Early tno
feeling was steady with moderate offerings and
a fair demand, and prices were fairly well sup
ported. Later there was more pressure to sell
and an easier feeling was developed, accom
panied with a decline of 57c At the reduc
tion the market ruled comparatively steady
with light trading.
Short Rib Sides There was quite a good
trade reported and the market exhibited con
siderable steadiness early, but rather on an in
dependent basis compared with other articles.
Later tbe offerings were increased materially
and prices receded 67c and closed rather
steady.

MINNEAPOLIS Many sellers of cash wheat
complained of tbe slow demand for samples.
Others who offered their wheat at a decline,
equal to the decline in futures, thought the de
mand fair. It was mostly estimated that the
prices of No. 1 bard fell more than Northern,
according to reports of several with some to
Sell. Millers claimed tbat prices were yet too
stiff, and while they bought some wheat they
skirmished considerably for the best possible
bargains. The receipts for the day were 120
cars, but the inspection made in tbe last 24
hours showed only 45 cars new wheat Closing

A leading nearby market gardener thus give
his view of the situation: "Tbe early corn crop,
which is much below average in quantity. Is
now about over for the season. The dry -it
weather of July and tbe first half ot August
upset all calculations in this line At the most
Important time, namely, when corn was earing,
the drought came in to spoil all our calcula
tions, and the yield was not more than one-halt
what it was last season. Recent rains have,
very much improved prospects for late corn, "
but, at tbe best the gardeners around Pittsbnrg
will have much less than their average to seu,
this season. To be sure prices are better this
year than last but not enough better to make
up for the scarcity of stuff. A year ago at this
time tomatoes were selling at 25c a bushel.
This morning they brought 75c to 85c a busheL
But tbe yield this season is not much above
one-half that of last season."
Jersey Potntoes nnd Penehes.
A Liberty street produce commission mer
chant who has spent tbe past few days in New
Jersey viewing the potatoto prospect o'er, saysi
"Tbe vegetable crop along the eastern coast is
above the average. There is no complaint in.
Jersey of short crops, such as we have in this
section. The yield of potatoes is a f nil aver
age, and prices are much lower In Philadel
phia and New York than in Pittsburg: As to
fruits, tbe yield is very light all along the
eastern coast Peaches are almost a failure.
In the way of fruit supplies little is to beex-
Sected from Delaware. Maryland and New
ersey this season, but prospects are good for a
f oir supply of potatoes from tbat source"
