IvEtr Yoke, September 23. The Iron
Ape of this date quotes the American metal
marketsas follows:
American pis The New York market
continues very quiet on the whole, the de
mand being for moderate quantities, while
there is no very great pressure to selL There
have been reports during the week of some
offerings of .No. 1 Northern foundry iron at
a considerably lower price than that usually
quoted, but these rumors still lack confirma
tion. As a matter of interest it may be
noted that one of the leading Chicago
makers has lately been selling some iron in
the territory tributary to New York. It is
reported that there has been some weakness
in Southern charcoal irons. It is aho re
ported that large transactions have
taken place in Cornwall Bessemer at 1B.
"Wecontinue to quote 1718 for No. 1 and
$16 C010 50 for No. 2 foundry, good Northern
brands while Southern irons are selling at
$17 0917 25 for No. 1, $16 00S16 25 for No. 2
and 61 7515 25 for No. 3. Southern car wheel
iron i quoted at J2021 for Nos. 3, 4 and 5, and
$19 50620 00 for Nos. 1 and 2, delivered.
Spiegeilscn and Fcrro-Mangaucsc The mar
ket has continued exceedingly dull, so that
prices are entirely nominal. Importers gener
all v agree, however, in stating that the market
abroad has become nrmer, and that it is doubt
ful whether sales could be made at prices equal
to those of the last transactions. There are re
ports that Ferio has been ottered as low as
$6S 50. but it is affirmed that $70 is now as low
as Ferro can now be Hid flown. Spiegeil con
tinues nominally. S3U30 50.
Billets Foreign maters seem to be very well
sold u for the balance of the y."ar. and busi
ness has become practically impo-sible. An
inquiry for about i.000 tons of 2-inch billets for
a horseshoe mill has been in the market, but
has not been placed at this writing. It is ru
mored that there has been a weakening in
Eastern billets, but no sales are reported. Natl
slabs have been offered in Central Pennsylvania
at $31 delivered.
Wiie Rods The market for wire rods is en
tire! in the hands of American mills, foreign
being quoted at $4345 50, while domestic have
been selling m small lo.s at $4J15 delivered.
Steel rails The market has been exceedingly
dull, not a single transaction of any conse
quence being reported bv sellers. Prices are
nomiuallj S30g3u 50, small lota bringing the
latier figure.
Plates The market is weaker, the mills being
eager to book orders at prices which it would
have been difficult to place business at about
tu o weeks ago.
Structural iron and steel The demand con
tinues very large and prices are steady at 2.25c
for universal mill plates, delivered; 2.102.25c
for angles; 2.C02.70c for tees, ann aic for
beams.
Old rails The only transaction reported dur
ing the week has been the sale of a lot of 400
tons of foreign, consigned, which sold at S25,
Jersey City. That price is bid by consumers,
but the majority of sellers hold for 26 and up
ward. Negotiations are pending for old steel
rails on which quotations vary from $20.50
to $22.

rSrECIAL TELEGEAM TO THE DISPATCH.1
New Yor.K. September 25. The Iron Age of
this date quotes the British iron and metal
marketsas follows from London: Business in
pig iron warrants has been large, and the mar
ket is strong, w ith a further sharp rise in prices
all along the line. At the moment, however,
outsiders are quiet and trade is inclined to pro
ceed cautiously, pending the result of the dis
pute between makers and the furnacemen.
Both are determined, and the masters are
unanimous in the position that they will damp
furnaces rather than give way. The Clyde
works are strongly resisting the advance in
-wages asked there, and have damped four
furnaces. The Govan Company have dimped
one, anda general stoppage is expected. Scotch
warrants advanced to 53s 3d. Cleveland to 493
lud. and hematites to b0 3d, a rise of about 2s
all through, but sold a fraction lower to-day, or
at 52 6 J for fccotch, 49s 3d for Cleveland,' and
59s 9d for hematites.
Pig tin on the spot has advanced 3 10s., sell
inc at 103, and three months' futures have
moved proportionately. The scarcity of spot
supplies is more keenly felt from day to day
and the fact that no large supplies are visible
imparts additional strength to values. There
was considerable buying in this market for
American account early in the week. Copper
has been somewhat nreguiar. Unuer brisk de-
manu merchant bars advanced early in the
week to 61 17s. 64.
That rise caused heavy
realizing by outside
holders and a sliffhtrn-
action toot place.
TheiB hnq einpn h..n n
giadual recovery and the market is now very
tirm. Those contrlling the situation still
give the market strong support and
are assisted by the smallness of arrivals
from America and heavy consumption. Tin
plate has beeu in busk demand and buyers
have taken hold more liberally, although
Placing no large orders until very recently.
Prices have advanced somewhat, and the
tendency is still upward. Makers are verv
ftiong. owing to threatened labor trouble in
t-ome quarters and present heavy demand. At
The live Llanelly works an advance in wages is
asked by the workmen. Steel ship plates have
further improved in prices, and are now quoted
at 6 12s Cd f. o. b. Barrow. On other forms of
steel there has beeu no marked change.
American Manufacturer's Cable Quotations.
Scotch Pig On warrants there has been an
advance of over 2s (business having beeu done
at 53s 3d) and the market is still active and
strong, with threatened curtailment of output
ol furnaces owing to labor troubles, an impor
tant factor. Makers' iron is also higher, bnt
business is slower at the advance.

Scottdale, September 25. No important
change is visible in the coke market and its
surroundings. The supply of cars rose apoint
or two on the Baltimore and Ohio and Penn
sylvania railways last week. The improvement
reported, although small, materially assisted in
the hastening of coke to points of consumption.
Several furnaces which would have been com
pelled to bank down were saved from so doing
by this assistance. One furnace in the
Sbenango Valley was obliged to suspend opera
tions by reason of no fuel. The demand for
coke is something phenomenal, and
in all probability conld be met were
it not for the reasons given above.
Three soldid coke trains were sent out
one day this week to furnaces in Cleveland and
other Ohio points which were on the verge of
suspension. It is believed by shipping agents
that the transportation facilities will be grad
ually improved and tho famine wiped out The
works in the Connellsville l egion are also af
fected by the lack of transportation. Coke is
being dumped on the yards, and the stock is of
such proportions that some of tho works will
have to shut down if cars do not come to the
rescue. An operator well versed in the trade
defined his position as follows to-day: "The
pig iron trade is active and, of course, the
order3 for coke are large. Wo could fill all
the orders, but the cars to bear them to desti
nation are not at hand. Were it not for the
coke that some of the big consumers secured
when cars were iu plentiful supply.I think they
would have to close their plants ere this. But
theu the car famine won't last always."
It is quietly whispered around that the coko
prices will be advanced a notch or so next
month or the month following. What Is behind
the scenes cannot be learned, as the operators
arc quite reticent on the matter. Some of
tbein denythe report The works are opera
ting six davs Per week as a general rule.
Some of the works are still making five days,
while others; operate alternately five and six
days. Eastern capitalists who recently pur
chased 2,000 acres of land in Somerset county
have opened up a couple of pits on the pur
chase, and found the coal to be of the coking
order. There are about 1,800 idle ovens in the
region. Tho Leisenering No. 2 plant of 500
ovens is being fired. The Charlotte plant ol 87
ovens is still idle. Work on the new plants in
course of erection is progressing. Shipments last
week averaged L095 cars per day. as against
1.C72 cars of the previous week. The total in
crease was 140 cars. Shipments were consigned
to points of consumption as follows: To points
west of Pittsbnrg, 3,900 cars; to Pittsburg and
ri er poiut, 1,620 cars; to points east of Pitts
burg, L050 cars; total, 6,540 cars. The record of
the preceding week was as follows- To points
west of Pittsburg, 3,650 cars; to Pittsburg and
river points. 1,600 cars; to points cast of Pitts
burg, L1S0 cars; total. 6,430 cars. Prices for

THE UEWS AND GOSSIP OP THE CITY.
The real estate interest of Allegheny City
is suffering somewhat irom insufficient
means for the conveyance of people to and
from the widely separated districts.. The
completion of the various rapid transit
projects, which are under way and in con
templation, will remove this barrier to the
progress of the city and give it a forward
impetus greater than any it has ever experi
enced. The highest priced property, of course, is
fonnd in.the central part of the city in the
neighborhood of the parks, where sales have
been made quite recently at as much as
S600 a foot front This was the price paid
by Mr. James H. Aiken, the Fifth avenue
merchant, for a lot whereon he is erecting a
line residence. Offers of ?500 have been
made repeatedly and refused. Some choice
sites are held at $700 and 5800 a foot On
Buena Vista street a year ago lota sold for
$2,500 which could not now bo bought for less
than $4,000, and owners are not anxious to sell
even at that figure. .
There is considerable activity in realty In the
lower part of the city, but as only a few of tho
transactions are reported it is difficult to tell
just what is going on. A number of important
improvements are going forward and others
are talked of. Owners are not anxious to selL
They are awaiting the opening of California
avenue, and the completion of the electric
road, which they think will stimulate the de
mand for property and advance prices. Thi3
is certainly a reasonable conclusion.
Passing to tho upper part of the city, the
Heir's Island district it is found that owing
to its isolated position and almost total lack of
transportation facilities, improvement is in a
very backward state. There is some activity
in the Eighth and Thirteenth wards, reports of
which seldom reach the public. There is con
siderable cheap property in these wards, which
rapid transit would make available. There is
some talk of the Pittsburg, Allegheny and
Manchester road running a line along Troy
Hill. In the Thirteenth ward. The project is
being pushed by John P. Obe', tho brewer, who
thinks it will materialize before long.
The hill district is being improved very fast
Among the handsome residences just com
pleted or under way maybe mentioned those of
C. F. Schroeder, F. Anschutz, and James Hun
ter, President of Common Council. Besides
these and others of the same high class, a large
number of small dwellings have been erected
within the last few months. Perrysville aveune
is the main artery of this territory. Electric
cars are running on it as far out as Bom's
ThreeMile-House. There is a good deal of va
cant property along this road, but it is being
booghtup quite rapidly. One of the largest
tracts, about 100 acres, is owned by Mr. Wat
son, who, according to report, is about to sell to
a syndicate for subdivision.

Moveme-ts In Renl Estate.
The Western Pennsylvania Improvement
Company, composed of local capitalists, has
taken a step in the right direction by purchas

and making contracts for tbe erection of 40
modern style frame dwellings thereon, to cost
from 82,500 to $3,500 each. Grounds and build

J. B. Larkin & Co. There is no danger of a
famine in cheap building lots. Sales are brisk,
but the supply is kept up by putting new sub
divisions into the market We are handling a
large amount of this kind of property in vari
ous parts of tbe city, and are just opening up a
tract of 27 acres, or about 300 lots, in the Schen-
ley Park district which we propose to market

STOCK TRADING.
A Few
New Jentures, but No .Material
Chance la Values.
Bales of local stocks on call yesterday were
216 shares, contributed by IS. and M. National
Bank, Luster and Second Avenue Electric, the
Ia'tter showing in tho active list for the first
time.
Luster was the only thing that displayed par
ticular vim. Reports from the mine are suffi
ciently indefinite to maintain a state of un
certainty outside of a favored few, who mani
fest a disposition to realize at every favorable
opportunity. The first sale was at 21M and the
last at 21X. The close was 21. Its friends
contend that it is good property, and they may
be right
There was a fair demand for nearly all of the
usually active interests at figures varying in no
material respect from those last reported.
There was no disposition to realize at a sacri
fice, showing confidence in the future of the
market

M0NETASY MOVEMENTS.
Borrowers Freely Accommodnteii at Regn
lirRntes Funds for the West.
The local money market yesterday was favor
able to borrowers, who obtained all the accom
modations they wanted at6percentas the rule.
No material change in the situation is ex
pected nntil after the October settlements,
when the market may work easier. This de
pends somewhat, however, upon the amonnt of
money that may be returned from the West.
Last year a good deal sent out there fonnd
profitable employment and remained.
Should this be tbe case this year there will
be very little surplus cash left after taking
care of established interests. The possibility
of such a result demonstrates conclusively that
the country is in need of more money. Ex
changes were $2,452,458 51 and balances S337,
833 88.
According to a Wall street special to Whit
ney & Stevenson, Mr. Cammack predicts that
money will be as stringent on the other side of
tbe ocean this year as it was tight here two
weeks ago. He looks for serious trouble in
London because of the enormous conversions,
of private into corporate properties and the
scattering of the shares among speculative
holders. London, he says, has by no means re
covered from the drain made upon it for gold
by South America, South Africa and Portugal.
Money on call at New York yesterday was
easy, ranging from 2)4 to 3 per cent; last loan,
2f; closed offered at 2. Prime mercantile
paper. 67. Sterling exchange qniet and
steady at $4 80J for 60-day bills and $4 81K for

LIKE A LOBSTER.
The Oil Market making Considerable Prog
re" Backward No Fluctuntions.
A naturalist once described tbe lobster as "an
animal that advances backward." The descrip
tion fits oil exactly. AH the change it has
shown for some time has been of a retrogres
sive character. Statistics all along have favored
an advance, but buyers could not be found.
The market yesterday was one of the dullest
of the season. The first sale did not take place
until after 2 o'clock. There were a few others,
but they all did not amount to more than 8,000
or 10,000 barrels. The quotation was 80 all
through, with bids of T9J at the close. Clear
ings were 46,000 barrels. Buckeye was offered
at 30, but nobody wanted it There were a few
trades in it in New York.

The Market Qnlet in tbo General List
Washington Rumors Interpreted ns
Unfavorable to the sugar
Interests
New York, September 25. The stock mar
ket to-day was very quiet in the general list,
but sugar was extremely active again, and
brought the total trading up to the average of
the past week. The tone of the dealings, how
ever, was not strong, except in the early ones,
when small advances were scored in the rail
road stocks. The Bank of England this morn
ing advanced its rate of discount from 4 to 5
per cent, "and London as a rulo was a seller to a
moderate extent of its specialties, though the
foreign operations in tho aggregate were not
large, and had very little influence upon tho
course of prices in our market In fact the rate
of discount was so fully expected and dis
counted that it did not even create a ripple on
the general bullish feeling which had taken
possession of the traders, and first prices were
generally from to per cent higher than
last evening's final figures.
Tho general opinion was that in view of the
shaping of affairs in the Southwest, Mr. Gould
was preparing to inaugurate an upward move
ment in his stocks, and tbo market being re
lieved of tbe incubus of the pressure so marked
of late in the Grangers and Villards the traders
are encouraged to take tbe long side, at least for
a turn, and tbe buying extended to almost
everything in tbe railroad list, though the im
provement was small in every case.
Rumors from Washington were interpreted
as unfavorable to the sugar interests, and there
was a general selling movement inaugurated in
sugar refineries stock, which swelled the busi
ness done in it to unusually large proportions,
while its price yielded readily, dropping in all
about 3 per cent. This quenched the bullish
ardor of the traders, and thev tonk the bear
side wherever selling orders were discovered,
with the result of wiping out the early gains in
tbe retnrn list, in all except a few stocks which
were known to have special support A more
determined attack was made upon the list in
the last hour accompanied by repoots of large
failures in Boston, and tbe stocks in which that
center is most interested furnished tho special
objects of the drive. Atchison led off. followed
by Union Pacific, and each of tbem yielded
over 1 per cent. Under cover of this move
ment however, there was good buying of sugar
refiners, and it recovered about half of its early
loss.
Silver certificates were again weak and
dropped away to 112 on light transactions.
The market closed active and weak at or about
tbe lowest prices of the day notwithstanding a
slight rally in the leading shares in tbe last few
minutes' trading. The final changes are almost
invariably losses of small fractions but sugar is
off 1, Atchison 1, and Union Pacific 1 per
cent.
Railroad bonds were again moderately active,
the sales of all issues reaching $1,318,000, and
while a firm to strong tone prevailed early In
the day the list sympathized with the share list
and declined in the afternoon. The attack
upon Atchison in the afternoon was preceded
by marked weakness in the bonds earlier in tbe
day. The final changes in tbe remainder of
the list were also generally insignificant
Government bonds have been dull and steady.
State bonds have been dull and steady.
The Post says: "Now that the receipts of
grain, provisions and live stock at Chicago
have increased to a volnme which is in excess
of this time last year, there is good ground for
the assumption that tbe eastward trunk lines
from Chicago will have larger earnings this
winter than last The eastbound sbipmeuts
from Chicago are now very largely in excess of
this time last year, and an advance in rates for
grain and some other freight is expected next
week.
Money in open market in London to-day was
up to 5 per cent, as against Zi a few days ago.
and this had considerable effect to prevent a
further advance in the stock market There
are no more apprehensions here about money,
DUt tbe stock market is so narrow that prices
move up and down on the trading of half a
dozen lndividualsin tbe Stock Exchange room.

PEODTJCTS OF THE GAEDEN.
The Growth of Produce Much Retarded by
Recent Cold Wenther.
Recent cool weather has been adverse to
gardeners. While there has been no frost in
this section, ground is cold and a check has
come to growth of garden stuff. A Neville
Island gardener siid yesterday: "Our profits
this season were about equal to last year, but
we urn not handle naif tne amount 01 stun this
season as wo did last Theyieldhas been mnch
below average this season. Our mainstay is
the tomato crop. Tho yield in this line this
season has been very light but prices are
enough above average to offset smallness of
crop. Last season we sold tomatoes at 25 cents
per bushel to ketchup manufacturers, while
prices this season has not gone below 50 cents
per bushel, and that only for a very short time.
Tbe general range of prices this season has
been fully double what it was last year. If
frost should come, which we expect daily at
this season of tbe year, we can put our green
tomatoes under glass and there let them ripen,
so as to secure better prices than we are able to
obtain at this time. The quality of tomatoes
ripened under glass is of course not quite up to
that ripened In the open air, but we usually
obtain better prices tor the inferior stuff, and
hence have little fears of frot Markets for
garden stuff have been rather quiet this week,
with a tendency to lower prices.''
Dry Goods.
New York, September 25. There was no
change in the demand for dry goods from
agents. Business continnes moderate, but firm
and steady as regards seasonable Mancbesters,
while a considerably active request for spring
fabrics is shown in the orders recorded. The
condition of the market is favorable to tbe
maintenance of price-, Tbe production of
Erint cloth is to be again curtailed and prices
eld. Lancaster and Lovell wide sheetings
have been advanced 1 cent a yard. Business
with jobbers was again more active, the nearby
trade operating and taking a fair quantity of
goods. Continued good weather for the retail
trade is having a good effect

are very firm. In fruit lines grapes still have
the lead, and markets are quiet by reason of
large receipts. Northern Ohio and Western
New York are our main sources of supply as
regards the fruit of the vine. Choice apples
are steady at quotations. Potatoes are firm,
and good stock is in demand at prices quoted.
Sweet potatoes are dull and slow. Water
melons are still offered, but demand is light
Tropical fruits are quiet, but their day is com
ing. There are already signs of improvement
in demand for California and tropical fruits.

Corn Than Expected
Pork Move Up.
CHICAGO Wheat-The market, after dis
playing dullness, developed more Ufe tolay,
and taken altogether a fair business transacted.
Indications were for a dull day, although the
market opened KQJaC higher than yesterday's
closing pricos, eased off c without any fluctu
ations of consequence, but some of the local
traders commenced to buy at the decline, and
as prices began to take an upward course the
short interest took fright and covered lair
quantities.
A few of the larger floor trader; bought mod
erately, evidently to scare some of the weaker
shorts, believing the market to be pretty well
oversold, and this action advanced prices 1
ljc, but the market wa3 not any too strong, a
degree of uncertainty being noticeable, and
prices eased off c, again recovered, and
closed e higher than the closing yester
day. There was a fair trade in corn at higher
prices, a steadier feeling being prevalent Tbe
better tone was due to a considerable extent to
the JPrice CurrenCs estimate of the crop at
1,565.000,000 bushels, or 543,000,000 bushels below
last year, which is a little better than the Gov
ernment figures. The market ODened with
sales at yesterday's closing prices, suddenly ad
vanced c, reacted c, ruled steady, and
closed with a gain of .c
Oats were traded m fairly, but an unsettled
feeling prevailed. Prices ranged lower early,
but tbe good buying by shorts prodnceda
firmer feeling, and prices for January advanced
c. On the bulge there was good selling of
May, and pnees yielded c, and the market
closed steady at a slight auvance over yester
day's close.
Mess Pork Moderate activity existed.
Prices advanced 1517c eased off 710c,
and closed 1225c higher than yesterday.
Lard There was fair activity and a net gain
of 5c compared with yesterday's closing.
Short ribs attracted considerable attention.
The improvement, which amounted to 67c,
was well maintained to the close.
