Office of Tiie Pittsburg Dispatch,
Wednesday. September 17, 1890.
There were 110 loacjs of cattle on tbe mar
ket at East Liberty yards this week, against
160 loads last week. The offerings consisted
niostlv of common and low grades. There
were 30 loads lrom Chicago, and nothing in
the lot anywhere near prime. The balance
were mostly from Indiana. The Chicago
cattle were for the most part common, light
butcher stock and hei.'ers. Markets opened
Monday morning strong 10 to 15 cents
higher than last week on all desirable grades
and steady oa all grades. But later in the
day something dropped, and inferior grades
became a drug, with the seller at the mercy
f the buyer. Said one of the leading commis
sion men:
"The wind-np of the market on common and
low grade cattle uas the meanestof the season.
Though it looked early on Alonday morning
that we were soinj: to get last week s prices on
all common bceies, ne discovered later In the
tiay that we mubt come down in order to un
load. Good beeves were goou stock at the ad
vance, but common proved very slow at a Bharp
decline ' Coare half-tatted cattle weighing
from LOOO to 1,100 pounds sold at a range ot
$2 50 to ! So. some lour or nve loads of this
gi"ade were bought lor a Lancaster county
farmer at these rates. The highest price paid
was S4 60 lor good shippine Indiana
beeves weighing from 1,300 to 1,100
r-unds. Almost all the good stock
offered was from Indiana. Krcsli cows were
m lirht supply and strong demand at a range
ii NO to HO a bead. Good freh com were
particularly scarce and outside orice was
railv obtained. Ohio calves were stfodv at 63
to 6c the latter being paid for some few ex
tras, and Western calves sold at 4c to uc per lb.
Merl), Ljinbd and SwJue,
Tbe run of sheep and lambs was unusually
light, and markets have been firm all the week
ji an advance of 25c per cwt, over last week.
'd Monday there were but five loads on the
i .arket. and the total for the week has not
oet-ii above 15 loads.
quality showed some improvement on late
ret eipts. There were a few loads of very good
IVnnsjlvacia sheep in the offerings which
md ready sale at outside quotations. The
rau?e of prices lor sheep was 3c to 5c, and
iau(bs4c to 6c. The top price of hogs on
Mouda was oc Der fit. There were then 23
loads of hogs on sale, of which not more than
a half dozen loads wcie prime corn fed stock.
The arrivals on Tuesday w ere still poorer in
quality Tuesdays receipts are uniformly
uearln stock, wuich are never as high in qual
it as those from tbe Far West, where corn
auounds. There were about eight loads In the
market this morning, and prices were firm.
The same report of steady markets comes from
I'bicago.

Wheat Decline on Knmor orn Ro-fin Fall

Scorra n Rnlr, Dae to Damntre
by Froit Onts Sironf er.
CHICAGO Wheat The market presented
a more healthy condition early to-day, and a
higher range of prices was established. While
the feeling was considerably unsettled and
nervous, the undertone was stronger, and the
situation apparently more encouraging to hold
ers. On the whole, however, operators were
disposed to watch the market and conduct
their operations cautiously.
The opening was rather stronger and prices
JfQKc higher, influenced bystronger foreign
market advices but a suddon weakness occur
red, and prices dropped off quiekly lf91Jc
The reason for this decline was difficult to as
certain, though it was credited to the rumored
lailure in Boston. From that decline a steady
rally followed, prices advancing Zc then
turned weaker, and closed Jc lower for Sep
tember, and Jc higher for December and May
Corn was lairly Jictive, a good volume of
business being transacted within lQlJic range.
The feeling developed was somewhat firmer,
and gains were noted on all futures The bet
ter toue was due in a measure to the receipt of
advices from tbe frost-bitten district saying
mat the damage by last week's cold snap was
more than at first supposed, and to tue ad
vance in wheat. First tiades were abont the
same as yesterday's close, and under a good de
mand, gradually advanced llc, reacted
?c, a prominent local trader selling freely,
ruled steady and closed with KS'Kc gain.
Oats were stronger with fair trading and
prices advanced Jlc, reacted KMc, and
closed easy at intermediate figures
Mess Pork A good business was transacted.
Pricesruledsomewh.it inegular at the open
ing within a small range, but later in the day
an advance of 1215c was established, but the
appreciation was not supported to the close.
Lard A little more was doing. Prices ruled
2K5c higher, and the market closed steady at
about ouiside figures
Short Rib Sides Rather more was doing.
Prices were advanced 57c and the market
closed rather firm at about outside figures

thought they offered it at Its relative value

LIFTING THE VEIL
A Glance at Pittsburg as She Ap
peared Fifty-One Tears Ago.
STATISTICS OP IE OLDEN TIME.
Local Speculative Interests Moving Along
in the Customary Groove.
THE NEWS AND GOSSIP OP THE CITI
Everybody knows what Pittsburg is in
this good year of grace, 1890, but there are
few who remember what she was in 1839
51 years ago. To bring the Pittsburg of
that day before the readers of The Dis
patch, the following article is excerpted
from Harris' Intelligencer, a leading local
publication half a century back. The
article is entitled "Pittsburg and Its En
virons," and appears in the issue for Jan
uary 1,1839. It follows:
"In our remarks on the population, busi
ness and prospects of Pittsburg, we will in
clude our very flourishing neighbor the
beautiful town of Allegheny, separated
from us by the river, over which we have
two bridges, an aqueduct and another
bridge in the course of construction. "We
will also include the 12 or 13 towns and
villages which are clustered around Pitts
burg, and embraced within a coniDass of
five miles. The vote given in this space at
the general election, in October last, was
about 5,700. Calculating, as is usually
done, ten souls for every voter. The popula
tion would be 56,000; wo presume, however,
that 55,000 would be a fair estimate. Allegheny
town has a population ot near 10,000, and is
rapidly increasing.
"The annnal business of Pittsburg has been
fairly estimated at $31,590,750, which may be
divided as follows: Pittsburg manufactures,
511,606,350; mercantile sales. $13,100,000: commis
sion business, 5.875,000; coal trade. 51,000.000.
"There are 5 banks, with a capital of abont
54,500,000; 3 insurance offices, and one or two
agencies; 3 exchange offices: extensive water

Dlnterlnl Chances In Values.
Mr. John D. Bailey held the stock traders
level yesterday in tbe absence of Captain Bar
bour, who took in tbe soldiers' reunion at Rock
Point. Mr. Bailey succeeded in arousing con
siderable interest, and made several sales, ag
gregating 90 shares, besides some Electric scrip
and $3,500 Pittsburg water bonds.
The close, as compared with that of the pre
vious day, showed small gains in Central Trac
tion and Switch and Signal, and corresponding
losses in Electric and Luster. There was little
change in the rest of the list. The undertone,
however, "ifas weak.
There was an improvement in the domand
for railroad shares, due to heavy business, and
consequently increased earnings. The failure
of holders to respond to bids shows they expect
better prices.

AT THE MONEY CENTERS.
Good Checking and Depositing Shaw Thnt
Business is lidding Up.
Checking and depositing were again large
yesterday, and there was a good demand for
loans, with plenty of cash to meet it at 027 per
cent, but otherwise tbe local money market was
barren of features of general interest. Ex
chances wore $2,670,751 18, and balances 128,
746 29.
A Cashier remarked: "I entirely coincide
In tbe views expressed in This Dispatch yes
terday in regard to the need of a large addition
of loose money. In addition to the argument
set forth in the article there Is another.
Formerly when money was shipped West and
South to move tbe crops it soon found Its way
back to New York aud other distributing cen
ters. It is not so now. Probably half of the
monev sent to those parts last year found per
manent employment and remained. The same
thing will, no doubt, be reooated this year.
This deflection of a volume of monoy from the
ordinary channels of trade is one of the canses
ot the p'resent stringency. The fact is, there is
not enough money to go round, and something
has to suffer."
The Wall Street News says: "The point
especially emphasized in tbe Clearing House
returns is that tbe iucrease in tbe currency of
the country is by no means commensurate with
the gain in the volume of general trade. By
many this is considered a lamentable fact, but
that view has been taken because of tbe com
paratively high rates commanded by money,
rather than because tbo business of the country
has been actually retarded thereby.
"All prices or gooa and produce are higher
than a year ago. The cost of doing business
may have been increased thereby and the
profits, of course, lessen, but this is merely an
incident ot trade In years of comparative
stringency, and under tbe ruling conditions as
regards Treasury purchases of bonds."
Money on call at New York yesterday was
easy, ranging from 3 to 7 per cent; last loan,
3; closed offered at 2. Prime mercantile paper,
79. Sterling exchange quiet and steady at
$4 80 for 60-day bills and $4 84 for demand.

NEW YOBK STOCKS.
Qnotatloni Clubbed Off by the Big Boston
Failure Buying More Kneer fin Wnll
St-eel Hopefi.l Furling Induced
by Prospective Bond Purchases.
New York, September 17. The general im
pression on the street last night that tbe Secre
tary of the Treasury would obtain the requisite
amount ot bondsto-day, which would ensure
ease in money at least for the remainder of this
month, induced a more hopeful feeling among
commission dealers and there was displayed
this morning an increased disposition to buy.
The more sanguine bulls pointed to the fact that
the late decline having continued for a week,
argued that the reaction under tbe favor
able circumstances must last at least for that
time, and were disposed to take the long side
for a good turn. The bears, however, while
acknowledging that there would be a material
rally, were not inclined to give as long a life
and maintained that the shore interest is only
moderate and liquidation of long accounts
would be started by any marked improvement
in values.
The buying to-day was more eager tban for
some time, and especially so after it became
known that tbe full amount of 4 per cents bad
been obtained at even a lower figure than it
had been expected the Secretary would have
to pay for them. The traders were almost all
working on tbe long side, and there was a most
welcome absence of bear pressure in any por
tion of tbo list, although some sluggishness
was shown here and tbcre. A correction of tbe
general impression that the Secretary said that
he could do nothing more for the money mar
ket after tbe acceptance of bis pending offers,
and tbe assertion that ho said that tbe expres
sion referred only to the i per cents, did some;
thing to restore a better feeling for the future,
as the hears were inclined to make all capital
possible out of the Impression referred to.
The London figures were higher this morn
ing, and, while tnere was not a very urgent de
mand here, first prices were generally slightly
higher than last night's final figures. The mar
ket sonn developed strength, however, and
prices rose steadily until after the bond offer
ings became known. By that time the whole
active list was up from 1 to 1 per cent, with
Lickawanua. Big Four, Chicago Gas and the
Villards most prominent for the gains scored.
The bears then attacked the list on tbe theory
that the result of the bond offerings had been
discounted and ir. their efforts to break values
were aided by considerable realizations among
tbe traders on tbe advances of the past two
days. A large failure in Boston was also used
as a club with which to knock off quotations
and before the close almost all the early gains
had been wiped out and in a few instances ma
terial losses incurred. The close was quiet but
weak, generally at small fractions below the
opening figures. Rock Island is down lper
cent and .Burlington and St. Paul eachc,
while Pacific Mail is np 1 per cent.
Railroad bonds w ere more active than usual
of late and dlsplaj ed a more pronounced firm
tone, resulting in a few material advances in
the list. The sales reached $903,000. outof which
Ruck Island 5's furnished $101,000. Hocking
Valley 6's rose to 84, Fort Worth and Denver
tints 1 to 104, Houstonand Texas general re
ceipts 2 to 74. and Milwaukee. Like Shore and
Western firsts 1 to 122. Government boDds
have been dull and lower. State bonds neg
lected. The Post says: Tbe report of gross and net
earnings of tbe Union Pacific whole system for
July and for the seven months to July 31 show
a gain, as the earlier lepnrts have shown, that
tbe Union Pacific, Denver and Gulf is the only
prosperous part of the Union Pacific system
and tbo only one that saves tbe Uninn Pacific
from making a very bad showing. For the
seven months to July 31 the Union Pacific,
Denver and Gulf net earnings show an increase
of $432,477, or 112 per cent, over last year, while
tbe whole Union Pacific system shows an in.
crease of $328,725, or about 3 per cent. This,
howeveT-.is due mainly to the Oregon Navigation
which shows a decrease of $415,022,or 73 per cent
of its net earnings as compared with the same
time last year. The total fixed charges of tbe
Union Pacific, Denver and Gulf for 1890 are
about $100,000 a mouth, and its net earnings so
far have been at tbe rate of $137,000 per
montb, or at tbe rate of about 1 per cent per
annum on the $31,000,000 of outstanding stock.

Counlrv Produce Jobbing Priced.
Trade in this line is slow, with few changes
m prices. We are now between seasons, it be
ing too early to lay in winter supplies, and sup
ply of perishable stuff exceeds demand. Mar
kets are overstocked with low grade aud dam
aged potatoes. Common and inferior stock
has only a nominal price, while choice stock is
steady at quotations. Dairy products are dull,
and tendency of butter is toward Iowerfigures.
However, volume of trade in creamery is larger
this week tban last, while sales of cheese aret
less. Choice nearby eggs are firm at a sbade
higher prices tban reported before. Bananas
are still very slow, and prices of ripe stock are
nominal. California fruits are in abundant
supply and show weakness. Cool weather
lessens demand for melons and prices are weak.
Lemons and oranges are steady at quotations.
Timothy and clover seed are firm at prices
quoted.

Groceries.
Coffee options advanced 15 points in New
York yesterday, but the long looked-for ad
vance in packages fails so far to materialize.
In the view of jobbers tbe rise cannot much
longer be delayed. Sugar, too, is firm enough
to go higher at an early day. The upward
movement of teas loses nothing of its force.
Prices are up from 3 to Sc per pound in the
past montb, and tbe end is not yet. Canned
fruits are unsettled. Speculative influences
evidently sent this line of goods above the
legitimate line, and we are now having the con.
sequent reaction.
