SHHIKKAGE IN IRON AKD COTTON. Fears let of Legislative Tampering With the Currency. FOEEIQX TKADE STILL FAT0K1BLE tSMCLM. TTLKORAM TO THB DIBPATCn.l Kew York, 'Jan. 9. Special telegrams to Sradstreet's show that there has been, as yet, no ceneral revival from the period of Inactivity customary at the opening of the new year. The exceptions have been at Boston, Philadelphia, Cincinnati and San Francibco, where the revWal of demand in leading lines has given rise to dacidedly more activity relatively than has been ob served elsewhere. At Boston, rnbber is higher, leather is stronger and drygoods are in improved demand. At Philadelphia, there is a better request in nearly all line, noticeably in pic iron prices, which are a shade higher. Tnere is a better feeling in wool, and cot ton tends upwards again, bat woolen goods are as depressed as previously. Groceries, notably coffees and teas, are firmer. The movement of sugar and rice Irom the plan tations to Uew Orleans, is quite free for the season; hut M Memphis, Kansas City. Omaha, St Paul andDuluth, tmde is quiet, the weather having been unseasonably mild. A Bad Set-Back for Lumber. Lack of snow in Minnesota and Wiscon sin has affected logging unfavorably? Lum ber is weak and dull at the "West, but hides are firmer. Receipts of cattle at primary markets are heavy. Arrival of hogs are free at Omaha and prices are lc lower. Wheat at San Frrncisco is firmer and lc. higher per bushel, with free exports, tmt large available supplies on the Pacific coast Washington, Oregon and Idaho available wheat, with that in San Francisco call board warehouses, equals nearly 13,000, 000 bushels, nearly twice the available stocks there a year ago. At the Fast wheat has gone office per bushel on unexpected continued increases from week to week of available stocks of wheat, weaker cables and freer selling. December gross railroad earnings were satisfactory, gains by 131 companies over December, 18S9, amounting io 6.5 per cent. Aggregate earnings lor the month were 38, 055,718, and the mileage was 84,328, an in crease of 2 per cent Decreases were more numerous and large gains of greater volume than in November last. Prosperous Railroad Traffic. Heavy earnings in that month point to a large movement in all lines except cereals. Cotton rail shipments were heavy. The Pacific roads make trie best showing. For the year 1890, 129 companies report total earnings of 5484,230,134 on 85,078 miles of track, a gain on earnings of 8.G per cent, and mileage of 2.7 per cent, over 1889. Every group of roads shows a gain, the largest increase being in the Southwestern and the smallest in the trunk lines. The New York share market continues to advance on the growing ease of money and the prospect that the new Western Bailroad Board of Control will be successfully organ iied, and will be productive of benefit to the operatioub and revenues of the compan ies in interest The bond market is strong, and the buying demand keeps pace with the advance of values. Bank clearings at 55 cities for the week ended January 8, were $1,282,197,394, an increase over this week last yearot 5.4 per cent New York city's clearings, which constitute 60.1 per cent of the grand total, are more than those for the same period last Tear by 2.6 per cent, while at 54 other cities the gam is 9.4 per cent Increased Number of Failures. Business failures reported to Bradetreei'i number 391 in the United States this week, against 303 last week and 354 this week last year. Canada had 43 this week, against 21 last week. The total number ot failures in the United States from January 1 to date, is 37, against 663 in the two lull weeks of last year. K. G. Dnn & Co.'s weekly review savs: The year opens with the expected movement in the money markets and the collections resulting from annual disbursements, which have been larger than usual. The hopeful leeling in most branches of trade continues also, and the railroad outlook is improved. It is becoming clearer every day that the one great obstacle to prosperity is the fear that debasement of the dollar may produce violent contraction, withdrawal of foreign investments, -collapse of credits and a disas ter which will be felt by every branch of trade and industry. The iron and steel manufacture has been eo rapidly extended that shrinkage of credits has forced sales in many cases at prices be low cost A Shrinkage in Cotton and Iron. On the whole the prospect is considered less bright than it has been for many years in this industry. In the cotton manufacture, also, the shrinkage of credits has severely strained many concerns, and prices of goods have been very low, but further reductions have heen made during the past week in bleached cottons. The woolen manufacture is doing fairJy, though extending but mod erately and buving wool witn caution. In the boot and shoe manufacture, the outlook is regarded as especially favorable. Keportsof trade from" different cities are ttill much influenced by reviews of last year's great business, but generally indicate a large volume of traffic in progress for the season, with marked improvement since the monetary pressure abated. Boston notes larger sales ot boots and shoes and of leather and stronger lnde, firm wool and quiet lumber. At Philadelphia the leather uud shoe trades are dull. The Products of the Farm. Wool is in little demand. Some uneasiness is seen regarding obligations in tobacco, but better collections in paints. At Chicago re ceipts of grain equal last year. An increase is seen in butter and cheese, hides and wool, but a decrease in dressed beef, cured meats and lard. Drygoods and clothing sales ex ceed last vear's, with excellent payments, and the shoe trade increases. St Louis and Cincinnati note better trade. At Denver trade is good, and at Salt Lake decidedly improved, whilet other Northwestern points business is un changed or comparatively quiet Higher cotton produces greatet activity throughout the South. Sugar and rice receipts at New Orleans are good. Eeports of collections are more favorable. Foreign trade continues favorable, exports showing a large gain over last year, while there is some decrease in imports. The merchandise movement supplies no reason for the advance in the foreign exchange, nor does the local money market, and the Treasury, has put out during the week $1,500,000 more cash than it has taken in. For some weeks to come, at least, compara tively easy money might be expected if there should be no disturbance arising Irom legislation. TUB PEOPLE'S STORE, nFTH AVENOE. January Clearance Sale.

A Simple, Honest Farmer, Carried Away by Political Excitement Thomas Denies That He Is Conspiring Against Cameron No Democratic Combine Is Possible. rrEOM A STAFF COBBESFONBrWT.l Harrisburg, Jan. 9. There is nothing definite known in this city about the result of A. L. Taggart's visit to Mechanicsburg in the Interests of his candidacy for the United States Senatorship against Don Cameron. He went to see Colonel B. H. Thomas, Secretary of the State Grange and editor of the Farmer's Friend, to secure his co-operation in using the influence of the Grange in coaxing country members of the Legislature to disregard the decision of the Republican caucus on Wednesday. The Harrisburg Telegraph this afternoon says: Colonel Robert H. Thomas, Secretary of the State Grange, says there Is nothing In the story sent out last night to the effect that he has con spired with Representative Taggart, ot Mont gomery, to throw the influence of a worthy or ganization against Senator Cameron. Colonel Thomas has never been accosed of being a goose, and it is quite probable that tue romance originated in the brain of some over-zealous opponent ot the Senior Senator. ' Austin L. Taggart is entirely unknown to the people of Pennsylvania, and now that he has audaciously announced his own name as against J. Donald Cameron's, for the ex alted position of United States Senator, public curiosity has been aroused concern ing him. He is simply a farmer. He owns a line Montgomery county farm not tar from Philadelphia, which be works with his own hands. He is a good type of the American farmer, too rotund, ruddy and rustic At first glance he would be put down as good-natured, but the two caucuses of the past week demonstrated how nicely he can lose his temper. He is of Quaker descent, and no matter what his attitude is now, he emulates their sturdy principles by sticking to what his conscience dictates to him as right He is 55 years of age, and only served one other term in the State Legislature, in 1S87. He is a creature ot the present introduction of the agricul tural element in politics. In Harrisburg nobody believes for a mo ment that his candidacv -will amount to,any thing. All the members of the Legislature are now out of town, and what politicians are here say that the Democrats, or at least the great majority of them, could hardly be coaxed into a combination by Taggart. ONLY ONE POUND PEESSUEE. Gas Scarce In Allegheny, and the Heating f.. Company Offers No Apology. There was only one pound water pressure of gas in Allegheny yesterday, and all the usual results of cas famine followed. The officials of the Allegheny Heating Company say there is as much gas as usual, but people are burning more, and the fact is that there is not enough pressure to supply the con sumers during a cold snap. They do not have any hopes at present of the pressure becoming stronger. Outside the city the situation is about the same. All street lights have been shut off at Bellevernon, Fayette City, Coal Center and California. The California Glass Works and Normal School will both return to coal, unless the pressure comes on stronger. FROM SPOTS TO EYES. Lecture of Or. Allyn Before the Academy of Science and Art. At the regular monthly meeting of the Academy of Science and Art held last evening Dr. G.W. Allyn lectured on the "Evolution and Development of the YisnalOrgan." The evolution was descrbed as from the lower to the higher animals. He began with the ani mals which have merely the eye spots, and continued through all the forms of the de velopment to the perfect eye. The president annonnced that Prof. Charles A. Young, of "Princeton College, will lector before the Academy at Carnegie Hall, on the evenings of the 29th and 30th. The lectures will be illustrated and the sub ject will probably be the sun. At a later date Prof. Putnam, the mound explorer, will lecture. HOT LEASED TO THE DUQUESNE. The Central Traction Company's Line Isn't to He a Feeder. It was reported yesterday that C. L. Alagee had leased the Central Traction Company's line for 99 years, and the talk occasioned considerable comment, the inference of many being that Mr. Magee had gotten a tip that the street acts of 1887 and 1889 stood in danger of annihilation, and it would be well to secure an extra entrance for the Duquesoe Traction Bailway, in case of possible squalls, that might cause trouble to get in by the route first selected. Messrs. "Vyhitney and Stephenson ridiculed the story, and said it grew out of the lease of tBe downtown loop to the Duquesne. ASTISONOBIT for January in THE DIS PATCH to-morrow.

Ooraopolis Developing Into a First-Class Petroleum Field. L HOTEL HAN'S QUICK OPERATIONS tSFEClAI. TZLSOBAK TO TUB DISrATCIM Wildwood, Jan. 9. This field to-day presents a new phase In the shape of a second pay in the Both Oii'Company's No. 8Harbush. They drilled the well a few feet deeper and found a second pay, and it responded with a production of 145 barrels per hour. At this writing it is holding up at that rate. This reasonably assures all the other operatorvin this port of the field a continued nod additional production, it being the first well to drill to the second pay in this part of the field. Griffiths and the Forest Oil Company last evening agitated their No.2 Whitesell,andit was to-day doing 75 barrels per hour. This is the third spurt this well has taken since it was drilledJn. The same companies have fin ished a new wood rig over their Whitesell No. No. 8 (tne original rig having burned down), and are now fishing for the tools and line, which were left in tbe well by the fire. Evemhmjt was at a standstill at McDevltt & Fisbell's Gayton well No. 1, owing to tbe fact tbat the pipe lines were unaDle to cope witb the field, not from any formidable increase in production, but owing to tbe nil chilling so It does not run freely, and tbe line men and gaugers being overworked In tbe erection of a new pump station. Tbis well is doing 18 barrels per hour. Bmler parties have k rig up, and are to-day spudding on the McCune well No. 1. This rig is bidden from view, beine in a valley, and is situated abont 2,000 feet south from tbe Ka nawha Comnany's Foglo No. L Guffey & Queen's No. 3, on tbe Rollsbouse 30-acre lot, has dwindled to a verv small producer, and was to dav doing about five barrels per hour. Barns dall, Gillespie A Co.'s No. 6 well, on tbe Kress farm, which came in large a short time ago, was reported tbis evening to be doing live inches per hour, showing drainage in tbis part of tbe field. Griffiths and Forest Oil Company'sNo.3 Herr was delayed by a short supply of gas from being brought in to-day, and as it was on top of tbe sand tbis evening, was sbut down nntll to-morrow, at which time it will be brought in. Tbe Forest Oil Company and Queen have at last got the casing tight in their Runca well No. 1. and have; resumed drilling. Forst & Co. are nearing the sand in their AIcGeagh lot No. 1, and expect it in by tbe first' of next week. They are to-day erecting tankage. No new developments in Finnegan and Downing's Wallace heirs' well No. 1. I was at tbe well to-day. Tbe drillers said they were 40 feet in tbe sand, with four bailers of oil in tbe well. They will be through the sand by to-morrow morning. Coraopolls a Productive Field. COKAorows The Coraopolls field, as de veloped, is not likely to ever produce any market breakers, yet tbe fact cannot be ignored that it is destined to become a pool of consider able dimension, with good, averaging, paving wells. Tbe Melton well on the Kerr, which came in yesterday, is holding up well, while the otber wells are also showing handsomely. "V P. Black and E. O. Emerson's recent pnrchase from tbe Kanawha Oil Company looks as if it is likely to turn out a good investment Mr. Black bas started three or four wells in the new developments, and Intends pushing mat tors In tbis locality with considerable vim. Tbe same parties have recently purchased from the Kanawha Oil Company 40 acres ot tbe Murry heirs farm, in the Wildwood field, for 5,000, and have already started two drills. In speaking of Mr. Black, it is a matter ot history to say that he bas been one of tbe most success ful operators in the middle field, where be has amassed a fortune, and to him belongs tbe honor of reopening the old defunct Fleasant ville, Fithole and ISbamburg fields, which, during tbe past four years, have been among tbe most Important fields in Venango county. He bas met with the same success in tbe heaw oil district, and has novpjutli'.Knp.lift In the Southwest; with what success remains to De seen. Activity at Mansfield Valley. MAltsriELS Valley The search for oil in this community is now at f eve; heat aid dur ing the past week tbe Robinson township field has bad an unprecedented boom. Two score of companies, larg? and small, are now operat ing in the field, and most of them have wells down or drilling: Among those interested are the Southwest Pipe Line Company, or, in other words, the Standard, G.W. Sparks, the Braddock Oil Company, T. Mellon fc Son, of Pittsburg; Shanks and Feeuey. J. M. Patter son & Co.. of Pittsburg; F. E. Clahoun, A. L Fowler. Wallace & Patton, Patterson & Jones, Rowland it Smith, J. M. Guffy, and others. All of the available territory has been leased, and thousands of acres are, occupied in Robinson, Findlay, North Fayette, Moon and Crescent townsblps. Two new wells on the John Ewing farm are now drilling- A new well has been located on the Martin Logan farm, near tbe Shrland school bona. Three new wells are now drilling in tbe Cliff Mine field, and others are in course of operation. One of the three drilling wells is on the A, E. Stewart, one on tbe R. w. Jeffery, and one on tbe Mrs. John stone farm. Jerry Beyer's Celerity. CALMEST The Geohrlng well is reported to night as doing 850 barrels a day. There is no abatement in the interest and excitement here, and tbe speculative genius is bent on maEing or losing a fortune. Among those wbo are bound to catch the cream of tbe new-found field is Jerry Boyer, the popular proprietor of tbe Boyer House, wbo one day last week made an unostentations visit to the busy field, and before leaving for home purchased a town lot ana dwelling, hustled the family out, tore down the bouse and tbe next day a derrick was standing where an humble and bappybome was situated only a few hours previous. Thus are the ways ot tbe oil region life. Guckert S Co.'s Davidson No. 2 will. In all probability, hit the pay to-morrow. The Bame company's No. 6, Humphrey, a: Peiersvllle, will also be drilled in to-morrow. A Well In the Salt Sand, Belmont Ackerley&Sammell found a 60 barrel well in the salt sand in No. 3 Charles Green, wbich is a newi eature in this field. The .well will be drilled into the Eureka sand to morrow. Their w ell on the James Greenwood will be due in about ten a ays, while No. 2 Hen dershot is expected in about tbe same time. FrqJ ects Near Erie. Erie The citizens of JIcLelien's Corners, this county, have raised a large sum to aid in putting down a test well for oil or gas, and tbe well will be put down at once. A scheme is also on foot at Mill Village to sink three wells, and a stock company has been formed. "Well Drilling at Nebo. Nebo J. 11. Patterson t Co. are drilling a well on the Morrison farm, wbich is down 200 feet. The same parties are drilling another well on tbo Brecht farm, Fine creek, which has reached a depth of 1,000 tect. A 75-Barrcl Well. Jack's Run McCormick & Morrison are In the sand with their well on the Straw farm, which is showing i of a 73-barreI well. The Duffy Well Shot, Harmony The Duffy well was shot this aft ernoon witb an 80-quart shot, but tho result at tbis writing could not be learned. If the use ot gl) cerine in this well does not make any Im provement tbe glory of Harmony will soon fade into comparative insignificance. Snee & McKelvey's New Venture.
