Xew York, September 12. The iron
Age of this date prints the following on the
American metal markets. "While manu
factured iron in all its branches is steady
under an unprecedented demand, a weaken
ing tendency is developing in raw ma
terials. American Pig The market continues
very quiet. Consumers appear to incline to
the opinion that they have nothing to lose
and possibly something to gain by waiting.
They point particularly to the fact that the
next few months will bring into the market
as sellers a cumber of new Virginia plants,
who can only gain a foothold by cutting. "We

TPRCIAI. TELEGRAM TO THE DISrATCtt.:
New York, September 12. The iron Age of
this date quotes the following on the British
iron and metal markets, ironi London:
The market for pig iron warrants has become
rather flat. Since the recent sharp advance in
prices, outsido speculation has tapered off. and
some of the large holders .have realized. At
present the trading is chiefly in small parcels
and by local operators. Closing prices Tues
day were 49s, "d. for Scotch, 47s. 2d. for Cleve
land and 57s. for hematite. Business was
done to-day at 565. 6a. for the lat
ter, 46s. 6d. for Cleveland and 49s. 6d. for
Scotch. Cleveland stocks have increased
somewhat thus far this month. Total exports
of pig iron from Great Britain in September
were 101,000 tons against 129,000 tons during the
corresponding period last year. Block tin
prices have steadily advanced and reached
95 15s under the influence of large demand for
Eromnt ana near delivery. Kecent arrivals
ave fallen behind the consumptive require
ments and the decrease last month of 600 tons
in the visible supply has been further enlarged.
Copper ha been In fairly active demand and
merchant bars have been sold up to 61 10s.
Prior to the advance a large quantity of old
holdings was disposed of at about 00. Some
speculators, taking advantage of ruling prices,
are realizing, but iresh support comes forward.
Included in late prominent transactions are
1,700 tons American matte and 600 tons bars.
In the tin plate market there is a temporary
lulL Buyers' and sellers' views are ide apart
aud makers very hrm. The stocks at British
shipping ports aggregate 323.000 boxes, against
366.000 boxes at the corresponding period last
year. Exports arc officially reported as 272,000
boxes in Aucust.1890, against 290,000 in August,
lbS9. Dealers report au increased demand for
old iron rails, chiefly from the American mar
ket, but no Important quantities have been
sold.

MORE DEMAND FOR COKE.
The Sbortnco of Cars, However, Cnniea nn
Accumulation of Stock on Hand Tolome
ofBminns Silently Larger An Operator
on the Oatlook.
rsriCTAl. TXXEOKAM TO Tin DISPATCH.!
SCOTTDA1.E, Sentember 1L The coke mar
ket still shows some unsteadiness. The demand
is of large proportions, but the seriously dis
turbing clement is the deficient car supply in
which not the slightest improvement is noted
since last report. Production is Just about
keeping pace with the demand, but the coke
continues to accumulate rapidly on the yards.
The business transacted in the region last
week was slightly in excess of the previous
week. The operators are not very much en
couraged at the present situation, if the senti
ments of a leading operator can be taken as
any indication. He expressed himself thns:
"An operator's life is not what It seems to be.
To-day youjare happy and hopeful and on the
morrow your hopes are blighted. At present
we are battling with what seems an insur
mountable obstacle In the shortage of coke
cars. There is a remarkable demand for coke
and of course the call for cars is materially
greater. The railroad cannot meet the extens
ive demand and there the matter terminates.
Theso car famines are getting too numerous
and something should be done to .prevent
tbem."
Western furnace consumers are perhaps the
greatest snfferers, as many of them will be com
pelled to suspend operations purely through
the failure of coke to reach them if the condition
of transportation is not soon radically changed.
In the Eastern and Pittsburg districts, the
furnace men obtain a fair supply. The works
are still running four, live and six days per
week. The Frick and Schoonamaker plants
aro operating five and six days, while the Mc
Clure, Cambria and a few other companies are
making six das. The idle ovens are increasing
principally by reason of the shutting down of
the Standard plant of 907 ovens. There aro
about 3550 idle ovens in the region. The Stand
ard plant is likely to resume soon. Tne Anchor
Coke Works, whose output Is controlled by the
Schoonamaker company, will be sold at public
sale.
W. J. Ratney will erect ovens on his new pur
chase iu Fayette county. The fire in the Char
lotte mine having been extinguished, the ovens
will be tired In a few days. New ovens are
being fired at Lipplncott.

The Limit of III eh I'rlcea Reached Mar

The upward movement in the line of garden
stuff has; come to a standstill, and prices are
considerably below the highest point reached a
week or two ago. Hot weather and much
needed rains have very much improved crop.,
and our markets have been receiving an over
supply cf tomatoes, cabbage, cucumbers and
roasting ears within the past few days. Toma
toes dropped to 50c a bushel on Monday, and
are now 75c Roasting ears and cucumbers are
dull at 75c per bushel. At the Diamond Mar
ket stalls all dealers report dull markets and
light sales. A similar report comes from prod
uce commission merchants. This is plainly an
off week in the lines of country produce.
A Clinton peddler, who. In ordinary seasons
brings large quantities of stuff to our markets,
in an interview yesterday said: "This is a sea
son of great scarcity in all my beat. There is
practically no fruit, and the crop of vegetables
is lighter than it has been for many years.
About all I can gather noware butter, eggs and
poultry. I cannot get enough eggs to supply
my customers, and this week there was no
trouble closing out stock at 23 cents per dozen.
Good country cutter readily brings 25 cento a
pound from stores. Poultry is scarce In the
section from which I gather my stuff."

Good Opening in East Liberty for a
Profitable Investment.
A MARKET H0OSE BADLY HEEDED.
Fifty Thousand. Dollars Put Into a Charm
ing Country Eesidenca.
THE NEWS AND GOSSIP OP THE CITI
There is a good opening in East Liberty
for a daily market The Lawrenceville
venture has Bhown satisfactory results, nnd
there is no reason why a similar enterprise
in East Liberty should not be even more
successful, since it is reasonable to suppose
that it would have a larger patronage. It
would draw support from Dallas, Home
wood, Brushton, "Wilkinsburg, Edgewood
and a considerable scope of country inter
mediate and beyond those places. It would
also reduce the pressure on the Diamond
market, which is crowded much beyond its
capacity. This would be a distinctive gain
to the city, since it would obviate the necessity
of enlarging the buildings or erecting new
ones.
An Uast Liberty commission merchant, re
ferring to this subject yesterday, said: "I think
a daily market in our part of the city would
pay. I have no doubt it would be largely
patronized. It is a great Inconvenience to a
large number of people to have to attend the
Pittsburg market two or three times a week.
There are a nnmber of good sites available for
such a building. The Allegheny market house
might serve as a model, with the addition of a
hall for popular entertainments. I think It
would be a good investment for the city, or as
a private undertaking, for I am confident that
stalls could be readily sold at good prices."
A member of the firm of W. A. Herron &
Sons said: "I think a market houso in East
Liberty wonld be an advantage to everybody.
It would not hurt, but help the grocers by
bringing supplies practically to their doors, at
a saving of considerablo time and money. It
would build up trade of all kinds, and make
East Liberty an important business center.

HOME SECURITIES.
Luster Leads the Retreating Column Gas
Coal Slaves Up a Pet.
Sales of stocks on call yesterday were 190
shares, all contributed by Luster. The first
sale was at 20, declined to 2, tnen to -jopi ana
25, and closed at 23 bid. So far as could be
learned the only reason for the drop was the
disposition of a few weak-kneedlpersons to un
load. New York and Cleveland Gas Coal resumed
Its upward movement in consequence of the
growing belief that then will be a good market
for coal the coming winter.
There was no special change In traction or
natural gas shares, but Pittsburg Traction was
op a fraction. Electric was a trifle weaker.
THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER

She sent an order to a broker here for 20,000
barrels and got 10,000. The range was: Opening

Buckeye oil was so completely ignored that
there were neither bids nor offers for it.

NEW YORK STOCKS.
Activity In the Street Some Material Losses
Suffered Snddcn Advancement la
the Money Rale Bond Hold
ers Hanging Back.
New York. September 1L The stock mar
ket to-day was unusually active, but the in
creased business was obtained at the expense
of values in all portions of the list, and tho ma
terial losses were suffered in all the active
shares. There was to-day an undoubted full
liquidation of small marginal accounts, for
which the only inducement was the scarcity of
high rates exacted for money, and the shifting
of loans occasioned by the calling in of money
loaned at lower rates brought considerable
long stock on the market. At the same time
the bears were again very prominent in getting
prices down and made special point of tho
poor showing of the Government crop report,
and the granger stocks suffered to a marked
extent, but not more than other stocks which
are not to be affected to such an extent by the
scarcity of corn and wheat to haul.
The money market was undoubtedly a great
disappointment to the smaller bulls at least,
and the rate on call having gotten up to i per
cent perdiem and intercst,notwlthstanding the
etforts of the Treasury Department for its re
lief, the liquidation became general. The pre
sentation of bonds at the sub-Treasury for pre
payment of interest was very large, the interest
being paid upon $25,000,000 registered bonds,
while $32,000 was paid on coupons and $241,000
4K percent were redeemed. This late In the
day again restored something like confidence,
but it failed to cause a rally of anything like
the proportions of the previous decline. The
early London quotations were all lower, and
our market responded with declines of from
to per cent at the opening.
Alter 12 o'clock special attention was given
Chicago Gas and Sugar Refineries, and each of
them was quickly let off 6 per cent on extreme
ly large transactions. The recent supposed ar
rangement between the city authorities and the
company was denied, and the opposition which
would furnish gas at 60c per 1,000 feet are said
to be ready for business. At the same time the
manipulation of both these properties was most
apparent, but the rapid declines had their
effect upon the rest of the market, and every
thing fell away rapidly, reaching the lowest
points toward 2 p.m. The extreme activity
then died away, and prices recovered slowly.
The leaders rose about 1 per cent, while the
Improvement in the others was confined to
fractional amounts only. North American was
one of the features, and. with the other two
stocks mentioned, was rattled off at 3 per cent,
rallying only a fraction. The declines, how
ever, extended right throngh the list, tne bears
being most Impartial In their favors. The
market finally closed quiet and fairly steady,
but at only slight improvement over the lowest
prices of the day. The most pronounced losses
were as follows:
Sugar refineries, 6: Chicago Gas. 4; North
American 2; New England, 2; Silver certi
ficates. lJi; Big Four, Northern Pacific, pre
ferred and Pacific Mail, each; St. Paul, V-Ai
Louisville and Nashville, Lake Shore and Lead
Trust each 1. and Missouri Pacific and Canada
Southern each 1 per cent.
Railroad bonds wero rather weak. The deal
ings, while they extended to $743,000, showed no
feature of interest. Among the most Im
portant changes, Chesapeake and Ohio, Rich
mond and Allegheny firsts lost 2at 69, Kentucky
Central 45, 2 at 81; Mobile and Ohio 4s, IX:
Ontario and Western, 2J; Western Pactic 6s, 1
at 111; Texas Pacific 2ds, 1 at 3S: Reading 4s,
1 at 80; Mutual Union 6s, 1 at 104; Tennesse
Coal, Birmingham division Cs, 1 m 9 and
South Carolina incomesl at 13, while a rise ot
1 in the Kansas and Texas generals was the
only advance of note.
Government bonds have been dull and heavy.
State bonds have been dull and heavy.
The JPast says: The suddenness with which
the rate for money advanced from 6 per cent
at the close of businens yesterday to H of I per
cent per day this afternoon, notwithstanding
that the disbursement of the United States
Tre.vury for interest and redemption of bonds,
is at the rate of something like $1,000,000 per
day, showed that there was either some new
and sudden demand caused by a scare, or that
the supply at the low rates had been sub
ject to some sudden decrease either from scare
or manipulation. The warrant for tne sugges
tion of manipulation is that the slowness with
which the owners of the 4 per cent bonds
avail themselves of the offer or the Secretary
of the Treasury to redeem them at par and I nil
interest up to July 1, 1891, shows that the
owners of the bonds do not care anything
abont the high rates for call loans. The hold
ers of these bonds cannot make anything more
by holding tbem to maturity. On the contrary,
they are losing the use of their interest np to
July L 1891, and yet of the $40,000,000 of 4K per
cent bonds called by the two circulars of
August 21 and SO, for immediate redemption;
$27,400,000 had been presented for redemption
up to noon to-day.

Used With Telllne Effect on Melon Hnntlns
Young Men.
rfPHCIAI. TUXEORAM TO TUB DIRPATOR.l
Iowa Falls, Ia., September 11. There
is an honest gentleman in this neighborhood
named Gardner, who goes by the name of
Brother Gardner, and who has an excellent
melon patch, which has attracted the atten
tion of the young men hereabout. A body
of these gentlemen had formed what they
pleased to call the "Lime Kiln Club," and
appointed Monday night as the time and
Brother Gardner's melon patch as
the place of their first meeting.
The honest deacon got wind of the
scheme, and with a double-barreled shotgun
loaded with salt and fine shot lay in wait to
call the meeting to order. Presently the
delegations began to arrive on foot, horse
back and otherwise. They had scarcely be
gun the business of the session when "bang!"
went the shotgun, and with bowls of pain
the meeting suddenly adjourned in all di
rections. Numbers of prominent young men are
now nursing mysterious "skeeter" bites,
and one, John Filz, has a severely lacerated
arm. Another young man is identified by
his horse, which was found tied near the
spot. The whole thing is a sensation
amounting to a scandal, as some of the im
plicated are prominent.

Groceries.
A decline in sugar is due. according to ad
vices from Eastern markets, and our quota
tions are reduced c per pound. The coffee
market is featureless. Prices are fairly steady.
Onr canned fruit quotations are again ad
vanced iu accordance with facts. The activity
of trade noted for a few weeks past gives no
signs of abatement. All staple groceries are
moving freely. Retailers are evidently aware
of the fact that prices will probably be higher
later on. and hence are laying in heavy sup
plies. Green Coffee Fancv Rio. 2425c;

CHICAGO Wheat There was active trading
to-day, and the market was excited, closing 4c
higher than yesterday. The opening was very
unsettled, and greatly excited, with sales
varying J01c in different parts of the crowd,
and ranged from 203c higher than yesterday's
closing, followed by a further advance of 1
IKc, or to $1 08 for December, and $1 10 for
May. or some 606c above the inside figures
reached Tuesday: Later the market eased off
some, declining H)c, held firm, and closed
about 4c higher.
The advance was attributed to the Govern
ment report The report while expected to
show a further decrease, proved rather a sur
prise to the most sanguine bulls. It was gen
erally supposed that spring wheat would show
a lower average, but this was hardly looked for
In winter wheat The report makes an esti
mated reduction in the total crop of about
19,000,000 bushels, a compared with the August
report. Trading was very heavy, both on out
side and local account. Everybody wanted to
buy at the start The shorts covered freely,
with heavy realizing on the top. On the way
up tho offerings were not heavy, and the short
interest experienced some difficulty in exe
cuting their orders without bidding the market
up. Some large lines were covered.
Corn was active and excited the most of the
session, price changes being sharp and frequent
within an irregular ranee. The feeling devel
oped was much stronger and higher prices the
rule on all futures, due almost exclusively to
the Government crop report which showed a
still further decline in condition and indicating
a yield or 1.540,C00.C00 bushels. First trades
were at l2c advance without much being
offered, and nnder active buying from shorts
and for investment another bnlce of lc Imme
diately followed. There was free realizing by
local longs around 51c, and prices receded c
rallied, selling up 1C ruled steady and cloaoa
with a gain of 304c The business was almost
entirely in May. and several larce short lines
were covered. The reported cold weather Jn
the Canadian northwest helped the advance.
Oats An active business was transacted at a
decidedly higher rango of prices. The firm
ness and advance In prices was due to the Gov
ernment cron report showing a decline in con
dition during August of 5.7 points, making the
reduction in the estimated yield from a month
ago 45,000.000 bushels, and from last year 226,
000,000. First sales w ere at Jc advance, a f ur
ther appreciation of IfflKc was recorded, and
after several small fluctuations the market
closed firm at about outside figures.
Mess Pork Trading was quite active, and
opening sales were made atl"12c advance
A temporary decline of 2K$5c was submitted
to. Later prices rallied, and the improvement
was moderately well maintained to the close.
Lard attracted very little attention. Prices
ruled 710c higher and closed comparatively
steady at outside figures.
Short Rib Sides There was a fair business.
Opening sales were at 50 10c advance, followed
byfurtbei improvement of 2Jc Later a re
duction of 205c was submitted to. Near the
close prices rallied 57c, closing at outside
figures.
