Cattle Receipts at East Liberty
Larger Than Last Week.

Office ok rirrsnuna Dispatch, I
WlONCsUAi, Dec. 3, 1S90.
Receipts of cattle at tlie East Liberty
yards for the week have been close to 150
loads, ajrainsi 105 loads last week. There
were 140 loads ou sale Monday, aud some
6 or 8 loads were received since. A larje
liroportion of the offerings were medium ami
common. The few 'good shippers and light,
tidy butcher cattle that were ottered found
ready buyers at an advance over last week's
Jirices, while common and low jrradts were
weak and a shade lower in price. Markets
were active at the beginning of the week for
all desirable cattle. Since Monday receipts
have been in the main common and
low grade stock, and for this class
of cattle, markets have shown
weakening tendencies. Tlicrc Mere close to
ten loads ot common stuck in tlio yards this
morning, which were unsold, and daily adding
expense to shippers which would inevitably
destroy all hopes or pront. Ou and calrcs
were very dull, ai.d outside of fancv stock
were lower than last week. The range for Iresh
cows was 3 tojli pir head. A few reached
SSO, and one extra tine brought J.Vi. Veal calves
sold from 5c to Oj per B. and grasscrs w ere slow
at 5c per ft. The run ol hogs ihis week lias
been th largest of the season. There were
close to 90 loads on the maikcr ou Monday, aud
total receipts for the week have been not less
than 125 loads.
Quality of offerings shows improvement on
late receipts, but pricou are otf fiom 20 to 40
per cent from last Tliursdav. Top pnc for
t be week was S3 W. and only a lew extras sold
at tin figure. Tne range of markets was S3 20
tossiu Lubt pigs, wcnrliing irom To to ill)
pounds sold at i-'0 to 53 00. There were iS
loads on sale this morninc and markets were
vry slow at the decline, baidaleadinrdcalcr:
-Quality of hogs received this season has been
below average, but w liilo ibis week shows im
provement m quality of receipts, miikets are
dull aud the entire situation favors bnvers."
Offenncs t sheep and Iambs on Monday
were about 20 load6, and the totl for the week.
t-n far. about 2-3 loads. Choice stock is still
scarce, demand exceeding supplv. For the
latter, markets were strong at last week's
prices, but common crades go slow and prices
are barely steady. There is no trouble finning
buyers for all choice sheep and lambs, but
otner grades go begging for customer. There
lias probably never beeu a season when high
finality of live stocU has been so important as
the present. The good is in demand, but the
cummon is dull and slow.

CHICAGO The heavy carrying charges were
found too much of a load for the bulls to stag
ger under to-day. and this was the cant-col
a radical drop in the price of wheat Outside
news was mainly in favor of better prices, but
sellers at the odds offered 111 their favor were
too many for the larmers' friends, who, after a
valiant attempt to lift the burden of 9c pic
miuiu for Jlay wheat were forced to drop it,
and in the end it looked as if their hearts as
well as their backs bad broken under the early
strain. Wheat declined 2Jc and corn c
The wheat market opened strong, but with
out beinc specially active. The opening quota
tion for Jlay was SI UuJ,,, which was c over the
previous aftei noon's closing quotation, and at
the price named there was not enough to sup
plv the demand. Tliero was consequently an
advance, which proceeded until SI ul'f was be
ing paid. There was a reaction of 14c irom the
price last quoted, and lor a considerable time
tucieafterSlOiaudSlOlH were maintained as
th" trading prices.
Under the influence of heavy purchases the
p- ices advanced to SI viy and the December
ielivery narrowed down io a discount of iic
and one of Jc.
There was a perfect avalanche of wheat for
s.lc at the last named price for Jlav and it was
very soon 011 the down grade. When the pr.co
ban been foiced back to around SI, the scalpers
juniM-d on the market with one accord and tne
11.1t.te to sell soon caused a decline to lOJc
During the closing hour it a very active but

i n com market was well supported in the
face ot wliat was going on simultaneously in
the wheat pit, but after all it sustained a loss
of nearly c and was arnnud its lowest point
at the close of the sesion. It was not until
wheat became so very w cat that llle price of
corn finally worked back to around SSMc
Hutchinson sold a little early lu the session,
but later lie allowed the market to take its
natural course, which was mildly downward as
already remarked. There was a drop of over
le. from the highest price ot the day, 53c being
the closing quotation, which is 'Jic under the
price it rested at yesterday.
Oats were traded in moderately and prices
advanced J-c oon after the opening owing to
the strength in corn. The advance brought
out crood selling bv a large operator who has
bought tor several days past. The weakness
and decline in wheat and corn also had a de
pressing effect and values receded Jc. At the
decline trading was moderate and tne market
clncd quiet at about inside figures.
Pork In th aggregate there, was a fair
business, buttbc feeling was somewhat strong
er. later, prices gradmlly reacted 2u22Jc,
and the market closed rather quiet.
Iml Quito an active trade was reported,
and the feeling was somewhat unsettled,
l'rices ruled 2J4S5c shortly affr the opening.
Later, prices receded fully 5S$5Kc and the tnai
ket closed rather easy.

Encouragement is as helpful to business
people as to any others, and if they will but
look around they will find plenty of it. The
world is about stepping out of what might
be termed its infantile condition into that of
early manhood by the aid of steam and
electricity and the multitudinous applica
tions of them to the bettering of the condi
tions of the people. ISew conditions are
arising every year, andgrander opportuni
ties are developing. The wave of industrial
activity can not be checked. The crowded
people of all lands find an opportunity to
better their condition in new places, and
this new incentive will bring more revolu
tions of a peaceful sort than were ever car
ried out by the sword. In fact, the agencies
now at work to renovate and re-orgamzeand
and rehabilitate are moving forward at a
pace that will overtake the sleeping lag
gards. Mightier forces than armies and navies
represent are coming up, and their tread is
heard in every laboratory and, study and de
signing room and workshop in this land.
Whatever mischief may bo caused bv schem
ing speculators or grasping luonev-lcnners is
only temporary. The interests of wealth pro
ducers are paramount, and will assert them
selves as they have done, especially within the
last few years. Everythlnir points to perma

STOCKS OK THE JUMP.
UIggest Day's Business for n Long Time
Some Tilings. Higher.
Captain Barbour did a booming business at
the stock calls yesterday. It was the liveliest
day for some time, and brokers were corre
spondingly happy. Bujing orders were numer
ous, and many of them were filled. Sellers,
sccingrthlnga were coming their way, were not
clamorous for customers, but sold when their
price was offered.
increasing case in the money market, and
favorable reports regarding some of the leading
interests were the bullish influences, aud there
was nothing to counteract them, showing that
the wreckers are at the end of their tether.
Several who were sellers early in the week were
among the buyers.
The strong feature was Philadelphia Gas,
which sold at ITJi. and closed at 16JH bid, but
nono offered. Tins rally seems to show re
newed confidence in the stability of the fuel.
Electric and the Tractions were firm. Pipeage
was weak. Manufacturers' Gas was offered at
21, but there was no order for it. The rest of
the list about held its old nosition. There were
fewer figures than usual, but those made meant
business.

NO IMPEOVEMENT.
The OU Market Creeps Along the Same Old
May.
The oil crowd did very little in the way of
business yesterday. They failed to draw in
spiration from the stock market, and got
through the day In the usual listless fashion. It
is quite clear that there is too much of tho
commodit.t for the trade at the command of
the Exchange.
Tlie market opened at 67, at which there were
a few sales. It then dropped to66J for want of
support, and closed at that figure. Oil Citj as
on the previous day, was the weakest spot In
tbo line, and sold at every opportunity.
There wss no change in refined. The average
runs were 83.147; average shipments 102.253

XEW YORK STOCKS.
The Market Drifting Into Dullness and No
Strength Anticipated Until tlie Now
Year Pew New Engagements ,
Now Being Made.
Kew Tome, Dec 3. The stock market to
day has been narrower than at any time since
the break which has begtir, and as usual in such
cases there was a declining tendency in prices
helped by tho bearish attitude of the room
trading element, which once moro seems to
have the making of prices. The market seems
to be drifting into dullness and well informed
people can s;c little likelihood of any pro
nounced actirity or strength until tho new
year arrives.
lu view of the present outlook for the money
market people arc not inclined to enter into
any new engagements this month, and the mar
ket at times like to-day is left without any ap
parent support. London was inclined to buy
to-day, and the early figures from that center
came decidedly higher, while the foreign buy
ing orders iu the early trading served to sustain
the market during the forenoon. When they
slacked away, however, there was found to bo
no influence to sustain the market, and the
traders, feeling their way, attacked certain
properties with vigor, causing material de
clines in the afternoon aud giving the market
a very ragged appearance.
There was a squeeze in sugar certificates this
morning. &nd there was at one time a differ
ence of at least 3 per cent between tliem and
the Trust Company's receipts. The trading
after the littlo excitement was over, however,
dwindled down to tho usual small proportions
as the volume of business in 4agar has been
growing less and less, as tho public docs not
now touch them to any extent, and is not likely
to until apulil.cstateiucnt of the condition of
the trust's affairs is made. In the general list,
ijackawauua. ar, r.tui. union r.icmc and
Atchison monopolized the most attention and
while the advent of cold weather with its ac
corapinimcnt of snow, had a tendency to help
the coal stock., making Lackawannathe feat
ure of the day' s trading.
It was specially strong when the general
market was held up, and feverish and irregular
when the rest of the list was weak aud active
all the way out The bulk of the pressure was
made upon the Grangers and the Pacific
stocks, and thoso properties show the largest
losses of the day. Lackawanna at one time
show ed a gain of 2 per centover its first price,
but at the close all of it hal been lost and lu
opening gain of per cent measures Its im
provement for the day. Tho low priced shares
wero comparatively neglected and were dull all
the way out. aad out-ide of the few leading
stocks there was no feature of interest in tne
dealing.
The possibility that the Rank of England
would reduco its rate of discount to-morrow
was a factor in the strength of the Ijondon
market, but it failed to make an improvement
here. The market remained quiet and feverish
until the close, which was weak at about the
low est prices lor most of the list. The final
losses aregcncrallvmall fractions, but Union
Pacific is off . Burlington and Missouri Pa
cific each i. North American and Pacific
Mail each 1JJ Northwestern and New England
each 1 per cent, whilo Jersey Central is up 1
percent.
Railroad bonds were qnite dull, and out of a
total day's business of '$333,000. Western Union
5s contributed $150,000, while there were fewer
issues dealt in aud small changes were the rule.
Prices generally yielded, however, and Cedar
Falls and Minneapolis lts aro down 2, at 73:

buying a'ul selling was distinctly by that class
of speculators who trade on the floor of the
Stock Exchange on their own accouur, and
govern their operations almost entirely by
what tbey see others doing, or trying to do. in
stead ot by any rule or judgment of what may
be the real value ot the stocks in which thev
trade. They follow each other, aud so it often
happens that in this circular process tho prices

Xot Enough "Water for the Coal Boats The
rackets.
The up-river boats made their usual trips
yesterday.
The Hudson was in and out yesterday on
her Cincinnati trip.
There is not enough water in the river for
the coal trade to prosper.
The Batchelor goes out for Cincinnati to-day
after having been at the wharf for a week.
The river yesterday registered 4 feet 3 inches,
and has about reached the limit of the fall. It
was stationary yesterday afternoon.
As to Steel Bails.
In this column of 'inE Dispatch yesterday,
figures were made to convey a wrong impres
sion. The reduction in cost of making steel
rails is SI 50 per ton and not S7 50 as the types
wero made to say. The labor that enters into
the cost of a ton of steel rails costs SI 50 less
than a year aso and materials are essentially
the same. The common laborer is now paid
'. SO per day, tfgalnst SI 35 a year ago, and
skilled labor has declined, uutil the reduction
in cost of manufacturing steel rails is as above
stated.
Drygoods.
New Yohk, Dec 3. Demand for drygoods

Country Produce Jobbing Prices.
Weather was about as miserable as it could
be, and transactions in produce lines wero very
lizbt. Supply of strictly f resn nearby egss is
far below demand, and prices are still movin"
upward. With an eye to the main chance, a
city expressman bought up a quantity ot cold
storage eggs yesterday and convoyed them
around by the Monongahela wharfboat with a
view to selling out his stock as ejrjs fresh from
the farms of tho Ohio Valley. Tho trick might
enable him to derive an extra Cc per dozen on
bis stock, but it is only a question of time when
such trickery is exposed and the trickster finds
his proper level. The crape season, which has
tamed unusually lone this year, is now over.
Potatoes are drifting upward. Fancy stock
readily commands outsido quotations. Tho
sameAS true of fancy apples.
