SUSTAINED BY AMKKICAK CEED1T. lVo Special Chanjc in Speculation, out Last figures Best of the Day. THE KEtVS iSD GOSSIP OP THE C1TI The old year is so near its close that a glance ahead is in order. As things look lb91 will be a good year for business. Preparations are being made among manu factures, merchants and all producing and exchanging interests lor a heavy trade, llusiness men feel safe. The present real lias been a profitable one to them, and they feel Opposed to attempt larger things next. Money lenders exhibit confidence in the future, and they are generally the first to sine'.l danger. Where they lead others may safely follow. The recent flumes have wined out much fic titious values and put lailroatl securities on a firmer ba-is. The financial skv is clearer tlian It has been lor months. The new year i likely to start, therefore, under auspicious circum stances. All in all, the outlook for business In 1S91 is highly encouiarm;r. American Credit Abroad, The recent stock panic in London resulted in a triumph for American securities. John llull taay turn up his nose at the tariff, but when he wants money he is willing enough to use Uncle ham's credit to obtain it. At the beginning ot the recent'slump in London he found himself hard up for readj cash. lie bad plenty of col lateral, it is true, in the form of bouth Amer ican bonds and stocks, but they were not avail able; nobody wanted tbcm, so be put his United Spates railroad securities on the market, and as there were plenty of buersfortbem they went like hot cakes, and the old gentleman's ex chequer was soou replenished. There was somo shrinkage in values, of cour-e, in consequence of the rush to sell, but the securities lepresented tangible interests nud brought in the cash hand over fi-t. The panic was checked by the lush standing of American credit aud many a poor fellow saved Xioiu ruin. Easiness civs and Gossip.

Aery handsome thermometer, of original design, is beins sent b John il. Oakley Co. to Ibeir friendi and uatrons. The Daily Investigator, of New York says: while the financial embarrassments of the time are unquestionably severe, there is ab solutely nothing in the industrial condition of the country to create alarm or to justify a financial crisis. The real estate offices of J. B. Larkin fc Co narrowly escaped destruction by fire a few inch 1 5 ajo. The fire started in the adjoining ece, burned thronch the partition and was snaking rapid headway, when ltwas fortunately discovered and put out. The buildi ug company recently organized Tlth $200,000 capital, and mentioned in this column at the time, is about closing a dicker lor a tract of land in the JJast End.

Last night there were cabled to London alarming rumors which had been current here during the da7 abont certain large and influential houses on the street being in financial trouble, and predicting further failures and a gloomy outlook alto gether. These were reflected back here this morning in the shape of rumors that large bouse, in London were on the verge of bank- I ruptcy. and, as the effect of last nicht's cables was seen in the Loudon market in a panicky feeling and sharp losses in American stocks, these stocks opened lrom 1 to 3 per cent lower than last night's prices. That the circu lators ot the rumors stood ready to take ad vantage of the situation created by the false reports, however, was proved b the excellent demand for stocks all along the line at the con cessions, aud the lowest prices of the day were reached during tha first live minutes, while only a few slocks went below the opening figures. It was announced that the Pacific Mail people had surrendered, and that George Gould would become President of the company. The market had no moro than opened here w hen private ad vices from London came denying the stories sent early, and announcing a materially better feeling there, which was soon reflected here in purchases by foreign houses and the cession of the sales by arbitrage houses. The monetary situation hereshowedamarked Improvement as the day wore along, and the buying assumed larger proportions immedi ately, while the purchases of securities by in vestors show no diminution. The oversold condition of the market was re vealed by the high loaning rates for stocks, several commandinc a premium Burlington 1 per cent, and Jersey Central, New York Central and Lake Shore 1-16, and Reading and Louis ville and Nashville 1 04. Tbe rush of tb shorts to cover increased in tho afternoon, and while the dealing were rot of larg i value 'headrance In prices was most pronounced, and before de livery hour there were fe stocks which had not recovered all of the loss, both at the opening and the early trading. The reaction in Jersey Central was roost marked: after dropping to 90 it rose to 160, though it shaded off to 93 at tbe close. Bur lington aud Quincy and Northern Pacific pre feried each showed about 6 per rent difference between the lowes : of the forenoon and tbe best figures, and all the leading stocks advanced in proportion. The upward movement ceased only with the close of business, and tbe final prices were, as a rule, the best of tbe day, the close beins active and strong. The final changes are quite irregular, but the advances ae largely In the majority, and the losses show unimportance, while among tbe advances Burlimrton and Quincy is up 3; Jer sey Central 3. Pacific Mail 3. Chicago Gas IX, Wheeling and Lake Erie ljjs. Union Pacific and Lackawanna 1. Northern Pacific pre ferred 1'4, New York Central and North American each 1 per cent, aud the others gen erally large fractions. Railroad bonds showed little animation, tbe sales of all issues reaching only Sl,b74,OO0. The market was still weak in tbe forenoon and fol lowed the share list closely in the afternoon, when prices, especially iu the speculative issues, showed markea improvement. Among these. Erie 2ds rose to 98. Hocking Valley 5s lo-t 2J at 76, and others in proportion The close, however, was strong, in close sympathy with tbe share list. The J?ost says- There were two leading causes for the recovery of confidence and prices in the afternoon. First was the action taken by the Bank of England in posting a notice officially dening lha.. the bank will call in loans, and also advising tbe banks gcnerally tocontinue their loans to brokers until the next account, or fortnightly settlement. The result of this was that discounts were easier in the afternoon, in London, and the stock market there closed firm at a large recovery, with good bujing by capitalists for investment and with the belief that the Bank of England rate of discount would not be raised to-morrow, as was thought earlier in tbe day would be the case. All of this had a great effect to help restore confidence in this market. Second, tbe revolu tion in tbe Pacific Mail directory, which has taken place without an election and without much, if any, struggle, in the market, for con trol of the stock, but by a negotiation, is re garded as tbe index of a most Important harmon ization of interests on a largerscale in the whole Granger and Transcontinental railroad system, but especially in the matter of tbe Union Pacific-Northwestern alliance and the atti tude of tbe other Granger roads toward It. The restoration of tbe control of tbe Pacific Mail to Mr. Gonld is also a factor, in tbat if he did not have it the Union Pacific and its other allies would be too much in the power of the Central Pacific and other Huutington lines. One gr at point In all of this harmonization of interests is that it removes from tho stock market the most powerful bear factor, because there is no other stock for winch there is any struggle for the control, and therefore no reason for depressing prices to shake out lone stock. The folloivin? tame shows the prices or active stocks on the cwork stock Exchange yester day.

With better weather than we have been en joying for some weeks past, trade in this line shows improvement at once. Bright, frosty weather seems to have had an exhilarating ef fect both on traders and trade. Poultry is coming in freely, and markets are slightly off. There is an excellent demand for good pota toes, and choice stock is a shade higher. Coun try butter is very poor stock, and unless of the fancy order can hardly be sold at any price. Good creamery butter is firm at outside quota tions. Fresh nearby eggs are hard to be had at any price. Apples $3 504 50 a barrel. Butter Creamerv.

Groceries. The trade in this line feels the effects of the financial flurry. Business has been rather quiet all the week.

Very Few Crumbs o Comfort to Drovers for tbe Week Pas!. LIGHT BOTCHER BEEVES STEADT, Bat Common and Low Grade Cattle Still Keep Declining. SHEEP AND BWIJiE ARE ALSO WEAKEE Offick or Tnr. Pittsbubo Dispatch, I Wkdnesday, November 19. 1890. There were 125 loads of cattle on the market at East Liberty on Monday morn ing against 120 loads last Monday. Since Monday about 5 loads were received. Qual ity of this week's offerings showed some im provement over late receipts. The best beeves on the market were fairly steady at last week's prices, but all common and low- grade stock was very slow at a decline. The weather was very unfavorable to trade. A low temperature, with rain and mud abound ing, upset many a nice plan for train. A wave of cool, clear weather would have been bailed by stockmen as a godsend. Tbe only kinds of cattle that were scarce and strong at last week's prices were choice feed ers. Stockers and common feeders were weak and slow at a decline from prices of last week. For tho first time in many months a load nt strictly prime beeves, weiehinp; over LGOO s was offered, and wero sold to an East End butchpr.who usuallv buys direct from Chicago, at SI 75 per cwt. This was the highest price paid this week, and the same grade of cattle would have commanded very close to the same figure in Chlcazo. They were shipped from Central Ohio. Outside of tbis extra load, top price of cattle was 54 60. A large number of common and low grade beeves were shipped on in first bands. Said one ot tbe leading commission men, who has been familiar with the East Liberty live stock trade from the beginning: "I have never seen a meaner market for cattle of the o&T grades than we had this week. Beeves tbat weighed In the neighborhood of 1,150 Us, which were in gnnd condition but a little coarse, sold as low as 2c to 3c a pound, a figure that goes below anything for many j ears on thesatua grade. The only grade of beeves tbat held their own this week were good feeders, and light, smooth butcher stock, which our local markets demand of late." The advice is here given to farm ers who contemplate shipping com mon and low grade stock to Pittsburg markets, as the great humorist gave to young men and maidens ccntemplatiug matrimony: "Don't." Better put your grain, even at its present high prices, into your cattle, than ship them to mar kets and accept prices now ruling. Sheep, Lambs and Swine. There were about 15 loads of sheep and lambs on sale at East Liberty yards Monday morning, and prices were strong for choice grades. Receipts since Monday have been about 8 loads, and markets havo weakened all along the line. Frit.cs are 10 to 15s lower than last week. Total offerings of hoes for the week were about 80 loads. About one-third were good cornfed stock. This morning there were 10 car loads on sale, and top price was 4c. The tops were below prime. The price in Chicago this morning was $3 TO. Receipts yeterday were 43.000, and to-day 15,000 bead at Chicago, tbe largest daily receipts of this season. McCall & Co.'s "Weekly Review.

Another Whirl of Excitement In the Chicago Grain Fit Values Vanish Early in the Session, hut a Reaction at the Close. dHICAGO The markets from the extremity of the demoralization at tho opening recovered some semblance of returning calmness at tbe middle of the session. The sensational decline of prices was recovered, and averaged higher at the close to-day than tbexorresponding time yesterday. May wheat, which declined 3c not only recovered this loss entirely, but added c to yesterdays closing quotations. Corn closed without change from yesterday, after a spell of radical weakness. Oats made a slight loss. Pork declined 20c and lard and ribs closed at an advance of 2c to 5c In the wheat pit, which was the center of ex citement at the opening, buyers kept their mouths closed for a moment, and accordingly the deafening nnise which went up simulta neously with the signal to begin came from the throats of the panic-stricken holders. .May wheat, which yesterday atternoon closed at 9SKc, was vainly offered at 97c, and not until sellers appeared willing to accept OGc did buy ers come forth in auy great numbers. Transac tions took place at the same moment at 96Jc and 96Kc There may have been a trade or two at 97c, and there certainly were some at 96c. December was almost smothered out of hearing when business started. May having now secured tbe greater part of tbe patronage of tbe speculators. It was offered at anywhere from S9Kc to 8Sc at the commencement, with some transactions passing at both extremities. All tbe demoralization indicated bv the fore going proceeded from a vague apprehension of some impending peril, something more dread ful than had yet hoen made public, aud the imaginations of those who held any property capable of further shrinkage have evidently fllledup the undefined outlines of the antici pated calamity with heavy blotches of sombei colorcd ruin. There was nothing in tbe usual governing influences before business started to account for the increase of the panicky feeling which prevailed. The cables. It is trne, re ported that the English markets for breadstuffs was weak and wheat lower, but less than this could not havo been expected to follow yester day's extreme weakness here. There was free covering uf shorts at tho open ing ot tbe market, and so long as the prices of December kept down around 90c and May re mained in tne neighborhood of 96c and 97c, and later there was considerable buying lor long account. Tbe feeling of alarm was re placed by one of moderate hopefulness when reports from New York brought no tidings of any fresh disaster there and quotations for stocks showed an improving market for good securities. May in the course of the last half hour's business advanced to 9ic, reacted to 93c, and bad a strong closing. Tbe corn market was a scene of wild commo tion at the commencement and heavy transac tions were recorded during the first half hour. Shons were the only buyers in sight, and heavy lines of those outstanding contracts were wound up at tbe expense of tbe disappointed sellers of long corn. The opening price for Slay was 50c and it sold at 50c within a minute or two thereafter, and there was a quick recovery to 51Jic The prices remained within the limits of 5i5Ic for a considerable time and then became nrmer, advancing to 52Jic There was very little trading in the other futures. Oats opened wild and unsettled with sale" for May at c decline, and Quickly receded fi more. Alter tbe flurry a better feeling de veloped, and there appeared to be as much de sire to buy as tbere had previously been to sell, and prices advanced 2c, and the market closed steady at a net decline of lKlc from yester day. Fork Trading was verv heavy, accompanied with frequent and wide fluctuations in prices. Prices on tbe whole range declined 6065c At the decline tbe demand improved, and, as tbere was less pressure to sell, prices gradually ral lied 6080c and the market closed compara tively steady. Lard A very brisk trade was reported. Opening sales were made at 7J10c decline, and this was quickly followed by a further re duction of 10c Later the demand improved and prices rallied 2022c. and closed compar atively steady. Short Rib Sides More interest than .usual centered in this market and trading was quite heavy at an irregular range of prices. Open ing sales were made at 5c decline and a further reduction of 10c was quickly submitted to. At the decline buvers were more inclined to take hold, and prices rallied 1517Kc and closed comparatively steady. The leading futures ranged as follows, as cor rected by John SI.
