Largest Receipts of Cattle at East
Liberty This Season.
A DECLIKE ALL ALOSG THE LIKE,
Lijht Tidy Butcher Beeves Suffer Least
From the Drop.
BWLNE WEAKEB, GOOD SHEEP STEADY
Office of Tim PrrrsnuKO dispatch, J
Wednesday, Dec. 10. Isoa (
The run of cattle at the East Liberty
yards this week was the largest of the sea
son. Markets opened on Monday morning
with over 200 car loads on sale, these were
reinforced through the day and on Tuesday
until the totals for the week reached 230 car
loads or more. A large proportion of offer
ings was what stockmen term trash, con
sisting of light heifers, stockers and half
fattcd butcher stock.
There was as usual a scarcity of light tidy
butcher beeves weighing from 1,100 to 1,200
pounds, the kind our markets call for. The
reason given for the big run was thus given
by a leading stockman: "The late cold snap
lias had the effect of depriving cattle of
ont-door food, and, as grain is nigh,
farmers prefer to push live stock onto market
rather than undergo the expense of wintering.
Corn has become too precious to put into cat
tle and hence a multitude of farmers have
pushed stock onto markets this week. Re
ceipts were fully double our local needs. In
consequence of heavy run, markets opened
Finn on Jlonuayata decline of 20 to 40c per
cwt. on common and low grade stock, and
there has been no improvement since. Llslit,
smooth butcher beeves Miffered least from the
decline, but even they were a sbado ueaker
than lastweekandsoldataboutlOclower. Good
lecders were close up to last week's prices,
but ara not do much wanted as they have been
for a fen weeks past. From Si) to 40 loads were
Fhipped on Hast, and about 10 loads were in the
yards this morning, unsold. Shippers ot
Chicago cattle must liae suffered heavy losses
on this week's operations. A commission man
reported that one load entailed a lo8 of $100,
and others not lets than $75. The highest price
paid was SI 70 for a load of extra Ohio beeves.
1'rcsh cows were m fair snoply and a shado
lower, with $23 to S45 as the range.
fclieep and I-anibs and Swine.
There have been about S3 loads on the market
this neck, and hot more than 20 per cent good
stuck. Anything choice held up fairly well to
last week's prices, but common and low grades
weie weak and lower. Markets closed weak for
all below fancy. Top price of sheep was S3 33
and lamb Be and only a few reached these
figures. Ketepts of bogs for the week have
been about 100 loads. Tup price was $31)0 and
only a load or two brought this price. There
were 10 loads on sale this morning and market
was slow with 3 60 as top price.

I'roiisions tueIan:ciL
CHICAGO The feature of the wheat market
to-day was its dullne-s. There was a notice
able paucity of offerings on a slight decline
Which took place in the earlier part of the ses
sion, and Mr. Hutchinson was a good buyer on
any soft spots during the day, but both be and
I'ardridge were reported to have been Kellers
whenever the market showed strength enough
to take offerings without selling under the
pilce. The general tone was one ot firmness,
and He improvement was established at the
close of to-day's session Corn was steady and
generally firm, although closing loner than it
did yesterday. There was a good business in
provisions without much change in prices.
The wheat market opened very quiet and
Vitbout change in price since the previous
iilteruoon. There was nothing m the dispatches
received prior to the opening to disturb either
Of the parties to the deal. The present condi
tion of sales appeared to afford a fair fighting
ground for the holding of options upon each
ude. ilay wheat opened at 9SJJC, with sales at
"cat the same time. Itadtanced to9SJc,
but baielv touched that price and immediately
Bagged off to 98c. It fluctuated for some time
between "S"tg&4c and 9SJc then declined to
tSJ4c with ouly a sale ortHo at the latter price,
however, and then advanced gradually until it
touched 99c The lifter point was reached
fcbout 43 minutes from tb close, and it was
well maintained between DS'Jc and 98Jc during
the remainder of the session. December was
nominally kept at a discount of 8Jc from the
price of May.
The opening price of Maj -corn was 54c,
which showed no change since the previous
afternoon. There was a sale or two at 55c, but
in the course of a few minutes thero were sell
ers at 5454c and 614c was the trading price at
one period of tbe session. After again advanc
ing to S4cit worked off once moreto54;je,
which latter price was bid as the market closed.
Oats were slow and easier and without new
or interesting features. There was tair buiing
by two large operators, but there appeared to
be sufficient offered to supply tbe demand, and
prices, after advancing y,GtLc, declined c and
closed qmet at about inside figures.
Pork Rather a good business was transacted,
with a comparatively steady feeling. Prices
ruled slightly higher at the opening, and then
a reduction of 2"aV was submitted to. Law,
Mtcei rallied 10c nut settled baci: again 5JJ
73 ic and closed rather steady.
Lard Quite an active business was trans
acted, aud rather a hrm feeling prevailed.
JIarly prices were advanced 2c Later prices
receded 2KS5c and closed steady at medium
figures.
Short Ribs A brisk trade was reported, and
the market ruled rather firm. At the openlne
prices rnled about 2Kc higher. Later prices
receded 2g5c. rallied 2ts5c and closed com
paratively steady.

THE SEED OF A PARK AT THE POIHT
Brokers in a Dilemma Over Westinghonse
Electric Companj Stock
THE MEWS AKD GOSSIP OP THE C1TI
It was mentioned some time ago in this
column that a movement was on foot for the
erection on Penn avenue, in the vicinity of
the Philadelphia Company's building, of a
six-story structure for the exclusive use of
the medical profession a medical office
building, in fact, designed to concentrate all
the doctors of the city under one roof, so far
as practicable, as has been done to a large ex
tent with the lawyers. It was stated that
the rooms would be single or on suite, the
first floor to be used as a store for the sale of
drugs and all kinds ot surgical appliances.
Tbe agent for the property upon which it
is proposed to erect a building of this kind
said yesterday: "The owner tells me that
he has made up his mind to go ahead with
the improvement. The idea is a new one in
Pittsburg. There is such a building in
Philadelphia, and it pavs, and I have no doubt
it will pay here. Besides, it will be a great con
venience to the public Plans are being con
sidered, and I think work on the building will
begin next spring. It will be modern in every
respect, and will cost about 5100,000.
Talk About a Park.
In conversation yesterday with a gentleman
who is familiar with the affairs of the Schen
ley estate, be said: "That Pittsburg needs
more parks will be denied by no one. In this
respect she Is far behind every other important
city In the country. Statistics will bear ont this
statement. We do not need a large park so
much as a number of small ones, so located as
to be easily reached by the people. No portion
of tbe city stands more in need of one of these
breathing-spots than the Point, taking In the
city as far up as Grant street. It would be a
comparatively easy matter to construct a park
in this district, large enough to meet all the re
quirements of tbe people; fori baveitupon
good authority that from one to two squares
could be purchased from Mrs. Schenley for
this purpose at a reasonable price. I think the
agent, Mr. W. A. Herron,-will corroborate my
informant in this matter.
'A park of this size would look like a pigmy
alongside of the East End concern, but it
would be large enough for all practical pur
poses, and the pleasure it would confer upon
thousands of people who are now shut out
lrom pure air and sunsnine, to say notning oi
the saving in doctors' bills, would more than
compensate for the cost. Besides, it would
obviate the necessity of an annual open air
fund for the children."
Improvement in Architecture.
Pittsburg is making remarkable progress as
a city of homes, and beautiful homes at that.
In no other direction within tbe past few years
has there been greater improvement than in
architecture. This embraces both business
bouses and dwellings. The square box of 20
years ago is a thing of the past, not to be
resurrected. The tasty home takes its place
with scarcely a ripple on the surface. ICone
lookfor a cause for this wonderful change it is
easily found. Architects and builders are
better equipped for their work than those of
a decade or so aco. They have studied their
profession. They bave cut loose from old utili
tarian ideas and methods, and aim higher than
the commonplace While not neglecting the
useful and durable, they no longer sacrifice tbe

Electric Moves Up a Peg and Philadelphia
Holds Its Own.
So far as prices were concerned yesterday's
stock market differed but little from thatof
the prerions day, but trading was less active.
If there were any orders there was no pressure
to placo them. Electric was stronger and
Philadelphia Gas about held its own.
There was considerable discussion at the last
call in regard to the standing of Electric, but
without turning on much light as to what tbe
figures of the company really mean; and, not
knowing what to do, the brokers did nothing.
It was offered very sparingly, showing that
holders are not ready to give It away. The
closing bid was a small fraction better than tbe
opening.

HARD CASH.
The Local Monetary Situation Unchanged,
bat in Good Shape.
For the second time this year the bank clear
ings yesterday were under the $2,000,000 line.
They were JL960,107 63. On March 14 they were
31,875,797 73. The drop was attributed to a dis
position among business men to favor tbe
banks as much as possible by checking only as
required by their attual needs. When banks
and business men thus work together there is
very slight possibility of a catastrophe. The
determination to issut) Clearing House certifi
cates in case' of necessity further strengthens
the situation.
All legitimate calls lor money were promptly
responded to, but the usual conservatism was
observed in regard W outside paper. Unless
gilt edged it Was rernied. On the whole, how
ever, there was a visible improvement in the
financial situation, aud the opinion was quite
generally entertained that tbe crisis had been
passed, and that whatever may happen during
the remaining days of tbe year will be due to
tbe ordinary exigencies of trade and be of local
significance. The general situation, as re
marked by a leading llnancier, seems to be too
well grounded in piosperity to be materially
disturbed.
Money on call at New York yesterday was
easy, ranging from 2 to 6 per cent, last loan 3,

NEW YOBK STOCKS.
Time Money, la Not in the Market and the
Bulls Cannot Do Anything Until Loans
Are Available The Temper
of the Street.
New Yobk, Dec 10. The stock market to
day was less active than that of yesterday, and
the strength of yesterday's market was not
held, notwithstanding that call loans were easy
throughout the day, never being more than 6
per cent and reaching as low as 2, Time mouey
however, is not yet in the market and failures
among mercantile houses continue to be an
nounced, and to-aay one in the street w as added
to tbe list. Commission houses seem to feel
that we cannot bave a pronounced bull market
until time loans are available, although they
advise the purchase of securities by those vho
have tbe money to pay for them in full, and
however prices vary there is always consider
able of this kind of buying of both stocks and
bonds. The slight advance in the prices of
bankers' bills was a factor in the depression to
day, but the amount of gold already taken is
stated at over $5,000,000 with the prospects that
more will come.
The temper of tbe market at tbe opening this
morning showed that tbe rise ot vesterday was
more a squeeze of tbe shorts tbau anything
else, and the demand for that purpose was en
tirely lacking, and while the fortnightly settle
ments were reported as progressing very favor
able on tbe other side, London was a seller, and
there was considerable pressure to sell what
looked like long stocks in many of the leading
shares. Tbe losses at the opening extended
to nearly 1 per cent, but the decline alter mak
ing considerable fnrther progress was checked
and a full recovery occurred. The failure on
the Stock Exchange was announced before
noon and bad tbe effect of frightening off the
buyers, and the beais.seelng the state of affairs,
started in to hammer tbe list with the effect of
wiping out tbe recoveries again. Some, of the
traders were inclined to play for a rally after
the downward movement tad continued some
time, but the effort served to check tho ileclino
for a time only and later theio was another
attack, which in tho last hour, carried prices
down to the lowest of the day.
The coal stocks wero specially prominent in.
this later drop and both Lackawanna and Del
aware & Hudson lost 4 per cent fiom the best
figures. Union Pacific and Rock Island, with
the other grangers were also specially weak.
The market finally closed active and weak at
about the lowest prloes of the day. The final
changes are not so large, however, while Lack
awanna is down Z, Union P.icific - Jersey
Central, 2: Hock Island and Coloiado Coal
each 1; Sugar. St. Paul, Xouisville &
Northwestern, IU each, and Atchison and
Chicago Gas each 1 per cent, the rest are ouly
fractional lower.
Railroad bonds were quiet, but displayed a
firmer tone than stocks, the final changes'being
generally slight and of theimportantones there
was an equal number of gains aul losses. Tbe
sales of all issues werel,441,000"'outof which
Lake Shore second regular furnished $100,000.
Gorerument bonds have been dull and steady.
State bonds have been entirely neglected.
Petroleum ooened strong for January option
and advanced ?i on Standard oil bnyiug. but
reacted latter, then became dull and remained
so until tbe close Pennsylvania oil. spot no
sales. January option, opening, 65; high,
est, 65J& lowest, 64Jj: closing, 64. Lima oil,
no sales. Total sales, 60,000.
Tne J'oit says: Tbe reaction was largely due
to tbe firmer marxet for tbe sterling exchange,
which it was assumed wonld be an obstacle to
the further Imports of gold, and partly also to
tbe fear that the Bank of England would ad
vance its rate of discount again to-morrow
morning to 6 per cent. The rates at which
bankers' short bills could be bought this morn
ing would not admit of the import of gold, but
with cotton bills as low as $4 77 they could be
discounted in London so as to be turned into
short sight exchange at a cost that would still
bring gold if the rates for money in London do
not go higher. .The exports of cotton in tbe
last five weeks to December 5 were of an ap
proximate value of $55,300,090, against $53,500,
000 in tbe same time of 1889, and have furnished
a largo amount of exchange, which, together
with the increase in other commercial bills will
probably keep tbe rates of exchange down to
the gold importing point. Tbe general ex
pectation of bankers is that this will bring
more gold. If this proves to be the case it will
strengthen tbe stock market, as tbe upward
turn in stocks was mainly tbe effect of the gold
Imports.

Lumber.
As tbe building season draws near its end,
demand for finishing lumber is active, and
hence hard woods are the strong factors of
markets. Volume of trade for the season has
been unusually large, but margins are verv
close. All building lumber is moving freely,
but prices stand .essentially the same as for
months past.

He Wrote Too Freely About the Trials of a

IBY DUNLAP'S CABLE COMPAITY.I
Beelin, Dec. 10. Herr Karl Abel, tbe
author of a pamphlet entitled, "Two Weeks
Acting Sergeant," which is devoted to proT
ing that it is madness for the officers to be
allowed to remain in their position in the
Strasburg regiment, as they are committing
atrocious cruelties, has been sentenced to
two weeks' imprisonment by the Karlsruhe
Court Martial for the publication of the
pamphlet in question.
The defense raised was that the author
was no longer in the service, but this was
declared by the courts to be irrelevant.
