Of Standard Foundry Iron Now Upon
v the General Market.
KOT MUCH CHANGE IS TRICES.
American Wire Eods Hare Driven Out the
Foreign Article.
THE SITUATION ACROSS THE OCEAN
isrxcnx. miosiic to tot: dispatch-I
Xetv Yoke, October 9. The iron Age
to-day quotes the American iron and metal
markets as follows:
American Fig. It is the general opinion that
the output of standard No. 1 foundry iron is
still closely taken up between the deliveries
making on old contracts and the current dally
sales. This grade, therefore, remains quite
firm. No. 2 foundry is not in largely excessive
supply, yet enough comes ont to keep the price
about SI 50 per ton below that of the higher
grade. Mill iron is plentiful and the weak
article on the list in company with
Bessemer pig, sales of which are said
to have been made at less than $18
at furnace for standard quality. There is little
to say of present demand, except that a con
servative tendency is manifested by consumers
generally and the offerings reveal no pressure
to sell on the part of producers or dealers.
Prices remain substantially as given hereto
fore. We continue to quote $17 6018 for No.
1. and $16 0016 50 for No. 2 foundry, good
Northern brands 17 C0S17 60 for No. 1, $16 U0
16 25 for No. 2. and $14 7o15 25 for No. 3 South
ern. Car wheel iron remains at about $2021
for Nos. 3. 4 and 5, and $19 6O02G 00 for Nob. 1
and 2, delivered.
8 lbgclisenandFerro Manganese Very little
doing and the condition of the market is prac
ticallv the same as it was last week. Con
sumers claim to be well snpDlied and sellers
hold to about former prices. Twenty per cont.
Spiegel is at $30 506531 for German and about
S31KS31 60 for English. On 80 per cent, ferro
$70 is the general quotation. The prices are
relatively considerably above those at which
finished products are selling.
Steel Billets No particular change has taken
place the past week. The demand is slow in
all sections, and $2$29 50 at mill is quoted,
with the market barely steady.
Wire Roils Domestic have been sold at as
low as $41 00341 50 at mill. This price is con
siderably below the cost to import foreign rods,
and there is practically no new business in the
latter.
Structural Iron and Steel New business in
this line is on a rather moderate scale, but the
mills keen well emplo ed and prices remain
steady. We quote at 2.25c for universal mill
plates delivered; 2.10J-25c tor angles; 260
2.70c for tees, and 3.1c lor beams.
Steel Rail Several orders have been
placed, involving a total of abont
7,000 tons for delivery during the
next thiee months. Exact prices are not
divulged but intimated to be chiefly on the
basis of $30. at Eastern mills, for standard
secti . with 50c more obtained for small lots.
Comparatively little new business requiring
deliveries this year is under way at the vrescnt
time. There is quite a number of inquiries
for 1S91 delivery, however, aud some contracts
are understood to have been taken with prices
to be definitely settled later on.
Old rails There has been rather more in
quiry, particularly from the West, but buyers'
views rarelv go above $.5 for tee. That price
is 50cl 00 under the figures asked, and little
bun.es goes through.
Scrap iron Sales have been made of 300 to
400 tons No. 1 wrought at $21 5922 CO f. n. b.
cars at Jersey City, and there is j et a very fair
demand.
A I0WEE LEVL OF PfilCES
On Pig Iron Warrants Reported From the
Foreign Markets.
SrFCIALTELEGItAll TO TUB DISPATCH.:
New Yoke, October 9. The iron Age to-day
qnotes the British iron and metal markets as
follows from London: In pig iron warrants
there has been some irregularity, with a rather
loner level of prices all along the line under
the influence of realizations, but a stronger
feeling manifested the past few days, and a re
action in prices to 52 od for Scotch, 49s for
Cle veland and 61s for hematites. There is at pres
ent a feeling that prices must go higher as the
dampening of furnaces cuts off about 20,000
tons in the weekly ouiput. while stocks in war
rant stores aro rapidly diralphing under the
deixiaDds made from home trade and for export
business. Shipments are runmug quite large.
However, prices move very irregularly and
business was dnc to-dav at 51s. 3d.S51i.6d.
for bcotcb. and 48.4Ss. 61. for Cleve
land. Prices for block tin have moved about
in a ratner erratic a. dropping somewhat
under the influence of realizing by holders of
cash lots and reports of heavier shipments
from the straits, which increases the visible
supply and reacting upon evidence of less
pressure to sell. lth -tocks down to the
present level the "bulls" could doubtless lorce
prices higher, but the scarcity is relieved some
what by importations from the Dutch market,
which, while not greatly affecting the position,
have some bearing at the prr sent time. It is
thought that 'he effect of fccarcity will be felt
for some time to come.
The market for co;per has been irregular,
merchant bir prompts reacting sharply from a
decline to 59 o, but settling back again to 59
in the face ot apparent confidence on the part
of largest holder', in still higher prices than
have yet been reached. Arrivals from America
have been small, and the Chili charters the last
half of last mouth were only 700 ton?. New
supplies, it is believed will continue to run
below the consumption and the future course
of prices would appear to depend in a good
degree upon the receipt's from the United
States. The tin plate market is vrry firm and
prices arc agaiu higher, up to 17s being quoted
for ordinary cokes which are clileSj m demand.
Makers express indifference with regard to the
provisions of the new tariff bill as affecting
business in the immediate future At the
Gorseenon Works the plant is being doubled.

THE DEMAND FOR COKE.
Trade Good, bat the Car Famine Continues
Furnaces Running Short Stock Accumu
latingShipments Slightly Decreased.
rSrKOAT. TXLKGRAV To TUB DlftrATCH.l
Scottdaxe. October 9. Shippers, who are
observing closely, report no visible improve
ment in the car supply during the past week,
and if anything a diminution is noticeable.
There is a continued activity in the demand,
with operators unable to meet It on account of
the same old reasons inadequate car supply.
Trade is going along in a sort of hop, step and
jump fashion. The furnaces are still running
short of daily requirements and are compelled
to economize greatly on their receipts. Op
erators are slicing up orders so as to
futnlsh enough coke to each plant
to keep them in running condition. In the
Mahoning and Snenango valleys and other dis
tricts covering the West, a number of furnace
men are waging a gallant uphill fight to keep
their plants in operation. Railroads still as
sign the shipments of Western grain East and
the heavy transportation of coal to the lakes,
in consequence of the naar approach of the
close ot navigation, as the mam causes for the
car dearth in the Connellsville region. There
has also been a decided increase in the volume
of general business on the trunk lines making
connection with this region. Their individual
cars are about the most effectual means for
operators' relief.
Production is beinglimited at some plants ac
cording to their daily car receipts, while at
other plants the stock piles are of enormous
proportions. The demand warrants six days
per week for all the works in the region, and
that run is the rule, although a few companies
still cling to the five day operations, chiefly on
account of no cars.
The orders from the West are plentiful, and
a booming demand has set in from the East
and Pittsburg districts.
The Southwest Coal and Coke Company Is
spreading out. Their latest acquisition is the
Ruth farm in ML Pleasant township, which
they purchased a few days for $3 75 an acre.
The purchase embraces 100 acres.
The sale and the transfer of the Buckeye and
Star plants to the McClnre Coke Comnany
has been completed. A. C Cockran & Co.
were the former owners. The McCIure Com
pany now operates 2,051 ovens in this region.
The fire still rages in the Charlotte 'mine
here. The idle number of ovens is still about
1.850.
Shipments last week averaged 1.071 ears per
day as against 1.11S cars of the week previous.
The decrease in shipments for the week was
385 cars. The following was the distribntion:
To points west of Pittsburg. 3.925 cars; to Pitts
burg and river points, 1,600 cars; to points east
of Pittsburg. 900 cars. Total, 6,425 cars.
The following was the record of the pre
ceding week: To points west of Pimburg.
4,125 cars; to Pittsburg and river points, L5b0
cars: to points east of Pittsburg, 1,125 cars.
Total. 6.810 cars.

Business on the wharf yesterday was a trifle
slow, due to the absence of the Andes, which
was not scheduled to arrive before to-day. Her
freight was loaded on the wharfboat and awaits
her arrival, and it is mostly cotton ties aud
manufactured iron.
The rivers fell somewhat, and will go below
the boating stage in a day or two. The rise is
running out very fast, as the marks showed a
fall of nearly a loot in one hour. At 6 o'clock
it was below the eight-foot mark.
The harbor boat owners are complaining
of thedangeious condition ot the Allegheny

THE
FACTS AND FIGURES
For Pittsburg's Disiingaished Visitors
to Kead and Ponder.
WEALTH AND W0KK ABOUNDING.
Iiocal Stocks Somewhat Rattled by the
Keport of a Panic in London.
THE NEWS AND GOSSIP OP THE CITI
The attention ot our English visitors is
called to the fact that the amount of capital
invested in the 4,000 industrial establish
ments of Pittsburg is, in round numbers,
$150,000,000. The numberof persons on the
pay rolls of these concerns is about 125,000.
Statistics show that the total tonnage of Pitts
burg per annum, strictly local business, is
18,000,000 tons, equal to 1,000,000 cars, or an
average of 3,000 cars per day. Pittsburg
yields nearly one-filth of the iron and steel
output of the United States. Bank clearings
this year to date are over $600,000,000. The
year s buildiug record for the city and sub
urbs will show not less than 7,000 houses, -affording
accommodations lor 35,000 people.
The demand for houses, both business and
dwelling, is very urgent, and fur bevond
the supply. Tax i- j.aid on $200,000,000 ot
property, the actual value of which is one-fifth
more. The total revenue of the city is $3,6j7,
000. These few sample facts and figures carry
their own comment and interpretation.

The Road to Success.
Courage is necessary to success in business.
Kickers and growlers such as those referred to
yesterday, who oppose street car extension,
will never set the world afire. Faintheart
never won fair lady nor made a millionaire. A
"business man, dying, left as his last injunction
to his son, "Keep a stiff upper lip." The advice
was better than money.
Pittsburg is full of square-toed, level-headed
business men. charged with conservatism and
fight. They go for all in sight, but never over
step the bounds of prudence. Such men are
good leaders. They are as inspiring to the lag
gards and the doubting Thomases as a bugle
blast is to the weary soldier. They have made
Pittsburgwbatsheis tne industrial center of
America. But for them the city would not
to-day be the Mecea of the iron kings of
Europe.
These men, of every nationality, devote their
time, talents and money to the upbuilding of
.flttsuurg. in ey nave taitn in an ot ner great
interests, developed aud undeveloped, and
show it by their work". Under their progres
sive and enlightened direction of affairs Pitts
burg will continue to grow in population and
wealth until she shall accomplish her manifest
destinv and take her place among the greatest
cities of tne world.

The Market Depressed by Reports
of
Panic in London.
Captain Barbour handled the stock market
so admirably yesterday that he succeeded in
knocking down '460 shares, consisting of Pleas
ant Valley Railway. Pittsburg Traction, Phila
delphia Gas, Luster, People's Pipeage. Colum
bia Oil and Electric. It was a good day's work
and covered a wider range of interests than
for a long time.
Values were steady at the two early calls,
but at the last there was a sharp break along
the main line, caused by a report of a panic in
London, the foundation for which was this,
dated London, 1250 p. K.t At this hour the
stock market is a scene of wild excitement.
Quotations are entirely nominal. Canadian
Pacific has declined 1 percent from last even
ing's closing price. Erie Jias fallen H, Erie
second consuls 1J Illinois Central 4K. Mexican
ordinary J, St. Paul common 9K. -New York
Central IVi, Pennsylvania , and Reading .
Later advices were reassuring. There were
some forced sales of American railroad shares,
which depressed prices and caused anxiety,
but there was no general panic, and at the close
the market was stronger.
But, whatever the nature and scope of the
disturbance abroad, the report, as stated, had
a depressing effect upon focal values, which
continued to the close, which in most cases
was at the lowest point of the day.

Two Trades Save the Oil Market
From
Another "Whitewash.
There wis enough business in oil yesterday
to save another whitewash, but that was all.
At 2:45, when trading should be at its best, only
three brokers were on the floor. A few minutes
later a few more crept down stairs, and ihe first
sale 2,000 barrels at 81 was made. This was
quickly followed by another sale of 3,000 bar
rels at 81J4 the top of the day. This completed
the day's work.

NEW YORK STOCKS.
J An Irregular and Feverish Market Bear
Tactics Indicate Heavy Overselling
Puzzled in "Wall Street Ef
fects of Rumors.
New Yokk, October 9. The stock market
to-day was still more active than on any day
this week, and was irregular and feverish from
opening to close with the result of leaving the
list irregularly changed, the gains and losses
being very evenly balanced with few important
changes either way. The tactics of the bears
to-day as well as yesterday indicate, if any
thing, that the market is more heavily oversold
than at anytime within the past year. Rumors
of bear origin were afloat yesterday affecting
tbe standing of well-known houses, and these
were supported by predictions of impending
panic. The action of to-day. if it iudicates
anything, shows that the bears are nearly, if
not quite, to the end of their rope, and, while
lurmer aecnnes were iorceu in manystoclt.
any cessation of the pressure was sure to result.
in a rally which was invariably accomplished
on smaller dealings than sufficed to create tbe
decline.
The street generally was puzzled over the ir
regular action of the market, but the strength
shown by Western Union and Missouri Pacihc,
especially the former, under the fierce attacks
made upon them was interpreted as indicating
that Mr. Gould and bis friends have been buy
ers. There was certainly more support giveu
certain stocks than at any time since the pres
ent depression was started, and the sharpness
of tbe rallies inuicated that extra efforts were
made to cover. The opening of the marketwas
irregular but genei ally lower, and with the aid
of a better feeling considerable strength was
developed in the early trading, which resulted
in the scoring of advances iu many stocks of
from H to per cent. Then unfavorable
rumors were circulated, accompanied by
another flood of short sales, so that by noon
all the improvement was wiped out.
Later the selling became' more concentrated,
and certain stocks were paid special attention
to with tbe result that before 2 p. M., declines
had been established in these shares extending
to 4 per cent. Most prominent among thein
were Jersey Central, Illinois Central, Chicago
Gas. Burlincton. Lackawanna. Npw England
and Reading. Many of the traders, however,
for the past few days have been working for a
rally, but heretofore with but little effect, but
after this raid the support to several stocks be
came more apparent, and the advocates of a
higher range of values took fresh courage and
a final effort in the last hour gave better results
than for many weeks. Not only were the
losses in the specially weak stocks regained in
most cases, but actual gains over tbe opening
figures were established in many others.
The movement was still feverish, but the
close of the market was made with the up
ward movement in full swiug and on an active
business, which heretofore has been the ac
companiment of the declines only. The final
changes are about equally divided between
gains and losses, but the only ones of any lni-
fortance are losses of yt in New England aud
per cent in Wheeling and Lake Erie pre-
xerreu.
Railroad bonds were again active, but unlike
the share list. Aftera downward movement of
considerable dimensions in tbe early trading,
there was no rally f sneak of. The sales of all
issues reached $1,336,000, out or which the
Atchison incomes contributed $230,000. Tbe
Reading Issues were conspicuous for weakness,
and tbe Texas Pacifies were likewise prominent
for animation. The final changes were almost
all in tbe direction of lower figures, and some
of tbe more important losses were the follow
ing: Butlicgton. Cedar Rapids and Northern
firsts, 2 at 94; Hocking Valley 5s, 3 at 80;
Iowa Central firsts, 2 at 83; Northern
Pacific 5s. 2J-J at 85; Richmond and Danville
5s, 2Ji at 87S; Reading firsts. 3 at 62. and
the seconds, 3 at 42. Government bonds have
been dull and heavy. State bonds have been
entirely neglected.
Tbe jPo1 says: There is not and has not been
any reason for the great decline of the last
month, except that a number of speculators in
this market, who loaded up with stocks last
spring in expectation of a great rise as tbe
result of the silver Inflation and tbe pension
and other disbursements ot the Treasury, have
been disappointed and sold out. The stock

FRIDAY, OCTOBER
market has been and is yet, extremely narrow
because, owing to the great activity and
general prosperity of the country, capital has
found profitable employment in other things
and the public have been too busy making
money in otherhings to come into the stock
market yet. But there is nothing in the general
business or railroad situation to' discourage
them from doing so, and now that the liquida
tion of the disanpointed speculators is probably
about over, the stuck market will look more
inviting to outside capital. Money is no longer
an important factor in the immediate move
ments of the stock market.
The Mail and Express,io its financial article,
says: Aleading banking house here telegraphed
to London for the cause of the depression
there, and the answer came back that there
had been considerable selling of stocks on the
1 report that the commercial relations between
Great Britain and the United States in tenure
would lead to shipments ot gold from London
to New York.

Country Produce Jobbing Prices.
Creamery butter Is firm and outside quota
tions are easily obtained for a choice article.
Top value for the best Elgin is 27c, and at tbis
figure there is a fair profit to tbe jobber. Ohio
river eggs are coiniug in freely, but strictly
fresh stock is firm at 23c per dozen. Chestnuts
have found a lower level, as will appear from
our quotations. Grapes aro higher at vine
yards, and demand is good for all offered at a
range of 30 to 35c per basket. Fancy apples are
in short supply. Quality of potatoes on the
market is generally poor. Good stock is very
firm at quotations. Sweet potatoes are dnll
and slow. There is an improved demand for
tropical and California fruits. Lemons are
very scarce and high.

Unsettled Feeling in the Chicago Grain
Pit More Disposition to Sell Than
Buy Wheat and Corn Lower
Oats Steady Pork Quiet.
CHICAGO Wheat Somewhat of an unset
tled feeling pervaded tbe market to-day. Fluc
tuations were not severe or wide, but there was
an under current which caused uneasiness and
a feverish market. Prices were a trifle higher
than yesterday, and the changeable course of
the market rather indicated that there was
more disposition to sell than to buy, and
operators were inclined to the belief that some
parties were selling or closing ont long wbat.
Tbe opening was strong and prices lc
higher, eased some and then became weak)
and declining llc recovered some, prices
advancing Jc, but again became wpak and de
clined c, reaching a point lK01Kc below
the top prices paid early, fluctuated some ana
closed abont c lower than yesterday.
Corn There was only a moderate business
transacted, tbe market being without special
features. The market opened firm with light
offerings and small trade, but under a fair in
quiry sold up Jc. eased off KJc on more
liberal offering-, ruled steadier and closed
Jc lower than yesterday.
Oats A moderate volume of trade was wit
nessed in May. but in tbe nearer deliveries
hardly enough was done to make quotations.
Tbe market opened steady, but prices receded
5c and closed steady.
Mess Pork A moderate business was re
ported. Opening sales were made at 5c de
cline, and a further reduction of 25c fol
lowed. Later, prices rallied 25c, and closed
quiet at medium figures.
Lard The market attracted very little atten
tion. Prices ruled 2c lower, aud the market
closed quiet at outside figures.
Short Rib Sides A light business was trans
acted. Prices declined 25c and the market
closed quiet at medium figures.

BlAIHE ASD HIS BABBEH.
His Family Sees That the Hairs Lay Kighfc
Baldheadedness and Brains.
I had a queer cbat last night with a
Washington barber, writes Frank G. Car
penter to The Dispatch. I was having
my hair cut wfeen be told me some of hit
experiences with public men. Said he: "I
worked last year at the Normandie Hotel,
where Blaine and bis family were stopping,
and I had to frequently cut the silvery
locks of tbe Secretary of State. Blaine had
his hair cut about every two weeks. Ha
dou't care very much as to its looks himself,
but his family watch to see that every hair
is laid even. I cut his hair in his own
rooms, and as the scissors snipped away,
Mrs. Blaine and James G. Blaine, Jr., stood
by and gave directions. Blain: himself
paid little attention to the job, and I had to
go over it again and again. He did. not
talk at all, and he is far different from soma
other men I have dealt with.
"Now, .there is old man Bancroft. I hive
cut bis hair many a time. He likes his hair
long, and he talks while it is being trimmed.
I kept Vice President Hendricks in order
when he was alive, shaved him every morn
ing and cut his hair once a month. I have
cut Joe McDonald's hair, but he is not very
particular. I shaved Abe Lincoln when ha
came here to be inaugurated. He was a
very pleasant talking man, and I remember
that he had a biz bottle of whisky and soma
glasses on a tray when I went into hit
room.
"Yes," continued the barber, as he snipped
away at my hair, biggest men of the country
are losing their hair, and I believe the day
will come when all brainy men will be
bald. Speaker Beed hasn't even luzz on
tbe top of his head. The skin is as bald as
me baby's cheek, and it shines as though it
was greased. I once cut the 20 odd locks'
which runs around Edmunds bare drum
bead. You have never seen anything as
pretty as his skin. It is as tender
and as clear as that of tbe finest (air
complezioned girl you have seen, and It
looks as though the blood would spurt
through it if you touched it with a pin. Ha
never lets any oil be put on his hair, but ha
likes to have his scalp polished with
cologue. Breckinridge of Kentucky, has
one of the finest heads of hair I have ever
seen, and he is a mighty nice man too. Ha
gives me a quarter every time I barber him,
and he talks all tbe time he is being
trimmed."
LUTCOLH'S HARD LINES.
How He Got an Education in Spite of tha
Greatest Disadvantages.
In Lincoln's Kentucky borne there wera
but three books in the family the Bible, a
catechism, aud the spelling book which.
Abe Lincoln studied. He bad not been
long in Indiana beiore he had read the
"Pilgrim's Progress," his father borrowing
it from a friend who lived 20 miles away.
He was very fond of reading ".JSsop's
Fables," a copy of which came in his way.
A young man taught him to write. As
writing paper of any kind was very scarca
and very expensive, Abe used to practice
his writing exercises with bits of chalk or a
burnt stick on slabs and trunks ol trees.
Sometimes he would trace out his name with
a sharp stick on tbe bare ground. When,
finally, he was able to write letters, he was
called to do tbe correspondence of many of
his neighbors, for very Tew grown persons
in that region could write even a simple
letter.
Advertising
it is said will sell anything, this is
true in a measure; but for staying
qualities,- merit is the test. Extensive
advertising may sell anything where
it is new or unknown, but after it
comes into general use, it is judged
according to its worth. The continued
and steady growth of Swift's Specific
is the best evidence of its excellence.
It is most popular where it is best
known. Every bottle sold, sells ten
others. Every one that takes it be
comes its friend, and recommends it
to their acquaintances.
