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.

TAGGARPS AMBITION.
IT HAS AROUSED PUBLIC CTTEIOSITY AS
TO HIS IDENTITY.
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.

NEW LEASE OF LIFE.
A Gobd Second Fay Struck in the
Wildwood Field Yesterday.
THE PRODUCERS TAKE COURAGE.
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.
