TRICES OUT OP ALL PROPORTION. A Slisht Change for tlto Better Noted in tlie Southern Field. EEPOETS FKOMTUE LEADING CEXTEES The situation is practically as it was a week ago. Transactions are light and mar kets remain in bnyer's favor. In the Ma honing and Shenango Valleys about 25 furnaces bare bhut down in tbe past week or two, for the reason that to run is to lose money at present prices of raw materials. Tbe few that are still running manufacture their own coke. There is no question that at present prices of pis iron tbe manufac turer is a loser. Said one of our leading brokers: "The only question is as to tbe extent of the loss, since it is absolutely cer tain that iron cannot be produced without loss at present prices." "Steel rails and nails have not been as dull for several jcars as they are at present. The stringency ot money markets bas.no doubt, much to do with dullness of trade in iron and Mecl lines. It is certain that the cash buyer would find producers in cither line ready to shade souiewbat on our qnotatiocs. All along the line of iron and steel products trade is very slow, and there are no sums of improve ment in sight. Some dealers report a slight im provement in tone of markets over last week.

The Philadelphia Market Experiences More Hopeful Trade. nrECI AX. TELMRll! TO TBI Olsr ATCH.l 1'nii.APnLPniA. Jan. 16. The iron market begins to show visible sins of improve ment. Since the nankins up of so many fur naces, consumers have become convinced that bottom prices have at last been reached, and that nothing is to be gained by further waiting. Conssquently. large orders have been placed, and in most cases without concessions from the prices quoted for the past couple of weeks. There Js at presen. an active demand for small lots, and all classes of consumer are beginning to require material. Present indications point to a further improve ment, jet no one looks for an immediate rise in prices. A great many of tbe more urgent sellers have already made heavy sales, and the fact is plainly apparent that there are not so many bargains waiting to be picked up as was th case ore week ago. Pig iron shows a good prospect for an active and improving market. The prices are as fol lows; Standard Pennsylvania, No. 14, SI7 50 IS 00: Xo. 24. 16 .17 00; Medium Pennsyl vania, So, 14, il7gl7 50: No. 24.

Small lots have been taken at J." 25. liar iron is in a fairly active demand for small lots yet many mills find it difficult toget wort enough toruuasincle turn. Comnctition is very kefir and as a consequence price" are irregular and unsettled. Some quote l.S0L!IOc for best re fined, and cithers arc glad to gctl.SOc for car load lot", or even larcer orders, fckelp Iron is a little more activctilthoagh for the present only Miiall lots are being taken. Sales of about MOO tons grooved are reported at prices rang ing from 1.62Kc to 1.87Kc Plates are rather weaker on account nl increased offerings. The ordinary asking prices for lots, delivered in consumers' yards are about as follows: For iron shin and tank plates, 2S2.1&C, and bridge plates. 2.052.15c: steel ship and tank plates, 2.152.20e. and bridge plates. 2.20S2.30.

SOME GOOD 0EDEHS PLACED. A Fairly Active Volume or Business In tho Chicago Market. rCTKCtAL TZXEGKAM TO Till DISPATCH.: Chicago, Jan. 16. Rogers, Brown fc Merwin saj : Tlie Chicago market continues fairly active, various good-sized contracts having been placed bv the larger consumers. Buyers are realizing that their stacks have been heavily re duced, and that tho present is a favorable time in which to make running contracts foi forward delivery. The activity continues to be mainly m tbe line of local coke and Southern brands. Prices are ruling low on metal of all classes. Notwithstanding, this, many consumers are looking for a lower range of market yet. Lake Superior charcoals are. for the most part, in active, the leading furnaces in this region being unwilling to meet figures which have been made by two or three companies having large stocks, and pressed lor money. Ohio softeners continue in small demand. As the financial skies clear better feeling prevails among inciters of iron. Conservatism, hjw ei cr, still prevails iu moit quarters, and there are few consumer') who feci warranted in con tracting abcid, met ely as speculation, though prices on pig metal range lowei than have been known for years, at this season. K0 VISIBLE CHAIfGE. Only a Few Small Orders for Iron Placed in St. Louis. rrrr.ciALTr-Licr.Aji to the dispatcii.1 St. Louis, Jan. 16. Rogers, Brown & Meacbam sa: We do not notice anv change in the market during the past week. A few small orders are being placed at very low figures.

An Improvement In Trade the Feature at Cincinnati. s rrnu tsleuhax to the DisraTcn.1 Cincinnati, Jan. 16,-Rogers. Brown & Co. Eaj: There has been a fairly Ann tone to the pig iron market during tho week, with Im proved inquiry and a larger range of business than has been reported for many weeks previ ous Values rule very low. and will continue to do so until accumulated stocks here and there are closed out. There are signs that this liquidating process is already pretty w ell com pleted. The strike in the Birmingham district is practically over, but there will be no large increase in the rate of production until values improve. Probably fonr or five furnaces in all tnaticciontbataro now banked will start up. Tbo stoppage of the Mahoning and Sheuango furnaces nas not perceptibly affected the mar ket in the North yet. There are considerable accumulations in that district. It is estimated that the rate of production, taking the country together, has been reduced since Decempcrl to about 1,)0,030 tons per annum. We make no cbange in quotations, wbicb are cash, f. o. b. cars. Cincinnati. THE OUTLOOK IS BHIGHTES. A Keactlon From the Period or Uepresslon in tho Southern Field. ISrrCIAL TELEQKAM TO "THE DISrATCII. BinMiNGiiASr, Ala., Jan. 16. A slight re action in the Iron trade has set in this weck.and the outlook for the future is much brighter. There has been no advance in prices, but tho demand for iron is increasing every day. While No. 1 foundry iron is still quoted at J12 it can be bought, even In small lots, at Sll 50. A few sales at still lower figures have been reported, but with the small stocks on hand it cannot be bought any cheaper now. The stock of Iron on hand in this district is now lower than it has been before in several vears, but most ofthe fnmaces out of blast will start up again as soon as they can obtain a supply of coke. While no contracts tor future delivery are being made, small ordeis are coming in right along and the furnaces in blast are selling their entire output. A large number of small lots have recently been sold to Ohio aud Pennsyl vania mills and it the present low prices con tinue the orders from that section will Increase. The coal miners' strike suddenly collapsed Monday, and most of the strikers have gone back to work at the "Id price. The Bessemer coke ovens have started up again, and others will follow as boon as they can geta supply of coal. Tbe 15 idle furnaces will all be iu blast again within ten days or two weeks unless the labor troubles should be renewed, which is not probable. President Seddou, of tbe Sloss Iron and Steel Company, aid yesterday that he con sidered the outlook for the future very bright. He said consumers had no stock on hand, and as soon as money eased op a little more they would begin to buy freely again, and iron would go up at once. LOCAL LIVE STOCK.

Prices the Same as Last Saturday A Qniet Week's Trade. In the line of market-basket filling tbe situa tion is practically the tune as it was a week ago. Butter, eggs and poultry are unchanged, and as to staple meats, changes are few aad far between, whatever the ups "and downs ot live stock. Produce commission trade has been very slow for a week past, but prices are fairly well maintained. In the line of fruits and vege tables prices in a retail way are the same as last Saturday. The same is true of poultry. The game season is practically over, and we quote nothing In this line this week. At the fish stalls of the Diamond Market dealers report a quiet week. White fish and Selected oysters are not in supply equal to de mand, but prices arc unchangeX With the ex ception of cod aud haddock there is little but fn zen fish on the stalls Dealers look for a scarcity of frozen fish befuie the first spring catch cmues to tbe front, which will be in the first half of April. While prices are un changed, dealers show no disposition to push trade, as they sav there is no profit at present prices and markets will not bear an advance. Florists report a nnfnt tr&rln fnnf thA linlt- day week. This week, how ever, shows an im provement on last.

ON THE OUTSKIRTS. Rapid Growth and'Material Develop ment of the Untiring Districts. PROGRESS SEEN ON EVERY HAND. Buffalo Capitalists Visit Pittsburg on Im portant Business. THE NEWS AM) GOSSIP OP THE CITI Several gentlemen, citizens of Buffalo, are in the city on important business Tiiey are entirely responsible, financially and otherwise, and hare large int6rests in Buffalo and Now York city. They have been induced to visit Pittsburg by reports of its prosperity and business advantages They have not been disappointed. Tho special object ot their vist is to buy acre age and to build bouses for sale They were in conference with two or three real estate agents yesterday. One of them said they had received and made several offers, one of tho properties being tho Stewart farm, on the Brownsville road. Theyaro also examining a large tract in the East End. It is probable that one or two of these offers will be accepted. They are practical builders, and if they are successful in securing suitable ground will do considerable toward supplyiug the demand for houses Still Pushing Ahead. Improvement in the outlying districts gives forth no signs of abatement. On the contrary, there is evidonco of enlargement. The build ing up of these rich colonies of Pittsburg is a great stimulant to business of all kinds. Men tion has been made of the phenomenal growth of Jeannette in the brief space of three years. Cbarlcroi and Wilmerding are very Ilttlo be hind. Both have astonished tbe natives - AValls is another example of rapid develop ment. At least 1,000 building lots have changed hands there within a year. Tho supply of houses was exhausted long ago, but the de mand keeps up. Swissvale will soon reccivo a boom in the shape of two or three manufactur ing plants, which will givo the historic old place a new lease of life. Wilkinsburg is as lively as a young kitten. The popnlation is about 6,000 and growing as fast as people can bo housed. Building is active. Houses in various stages of comple tion can be seen on almost every street. James Wilson, lumber dealer and contractor, is mak ing arrangements to put up a block of brick dwellings on Franklin street, ground for which will be broken early in the spring. Reports from Glenwood and Hazelwood indicate lively times out there. 'Transactions are frequent and some ot them important. Building at both places will bo on an extensive scale this season. And so it is all along tbe line. The South side, the ISorthside, tbe West End and down the valley as far a Beaver all show vitality and progress Pittsburg has good reason to be proud of her children. It Is a Go. The real estate auction room scheme was perfected at the meeting held yesterday after noon, at which there was a full attendance of brokers The report of the committee on rules was adopted as presented and the committee discharged. The Execntive Committee aie John F, Baxter, D. P. Black, Alexander Leg gate, S. W. Black and Thomas Liggett; Presi dent, John F. Baxter; Secretary, Alexander Leggate; Treasurer, S. W. Black. The Ex ecutive Committee were authorized to select permanent quarters Regular meetings will be neld tho second Tuesday of each month. Reg ular sales will be on Thursday of each week at 2 r. M. Money enough has been subscribed to run the business of tbe room for a year. iS'early all the real estate agents of tbe city are enrolled among the members. Tne official title of tbe organization is the Real Estate Auction Board of Allegheny County. Tlie Executive Board will secure temporary quarters in which to hold sales until Anril 1, by which time a permanent location will have been secured. Business News and Gossip. Mr. William Turner, a pioneer grocoryman of Wilkinsburg, it is stated, has sold his prop erty there and will remove to Florida for the benefit of his health. An off er of 8,000 has been made for three acres at Edge nood. The owner paid 2,000 for it less than four years ago. J. C. Reilly, agent for the Friday estate, had a satisfactory offer for the property on Fifth avenue and Chatham street, but there was a bitch in regard to terms of payment and the deal was dropped. .Nineteen of 33 mortgages on file yesterday were for purchase money. The largest was for 13,513. Each of 15 was tor less than 1,000. It was announced on 'Change yesterday that the books ot the Union Switch and Signal Com pany.had been transferred to tbe works at Swissvale. Brokers will have to go there to transfer stock.

No Excitement and No Special Urgency to Realize on Anything. There was less business but a better feeling at the stock calls yesterday than on tho previous day. There was no excitement, and everybody acted as if he believed the clouds were rolling by. Sales were 155 shares against 653 the pre vious day. Electric was a shade weaker in the bidding than tbe day before, but this was more artifi cial than real, as shown by the refusal of holders to accept tho price. It closed tbe same as the opening, bnt was offered down a trifle. Philadelphia Gas in the absence of knowl edge of what the meeting would do in regard to a dividend, was in a waiting mood, and hung around tbo lowest quotation of Thursday. It was offered very sparingly. A report of the meeting will be found in another column. Central Traction declined a fraction, as did Switch and Signal, bnt the rest of the list about held its ground. A good feature of the market was that nothing was pressed for sale Bids offers and sales are apnended: rinST SECOND THIRD CALL. CALL. CALL. U A B A U A P. P. 8. A M. El 375 .... 373 ....

The stock market to day was still less active, but on the whole dis played a greater resistance to the hammering operations of the bears than yesterday, and, while most stocks are lower to-night, tbe losses are in most cases insignificant fractions, while a few material advances were scored. Tbe ontlook for tbe day's operations seems to indicate that tho silverscare will not be of long duration. There was in tbo afternoon a per ceptible easing up in the foreign exchange markets, and the fears that gold would have to be exported in the near future were allayed for the present, the foreign buying of tbo fore noon also helping to bring about this state of feeling. The heavy drives at values weromade with the special object of uncovering some large orders which were believed lo exist, but the selling mot a demand in those stocks which completely foiled the attempts. In the early trading, after a generally weak opening. New England and Chicago Gas be came strong features, and the strength in these properties.with the marked demand for foreign houses, helped to rally tbe list sharply before the close ot tbe first hour. The loreigners. howo7er, becoming satisfied, tbe hammering operations were renewed with vigor, and prices yielded all along the line, Missouri Paclhc, the Vlllards, Sugar Refineries and Lackawanna showing most weakness. A There was another drive at the list in the afternoon, which forced prices off still farther and, at the lowest points, declines from last night extending to 2 percent uereshown. The general list, however, was only slightly changed, and with the easier condition of foreign exchange and the most pronounced ease in tbe money market, the shorts went into cover in the last hour, with the result of nearly wiping out the losses. The industrials were prominent in the late rise. Lead in particular. The market closed active and ittrnni. 4t slightly under first prices. The final changes are generally for small losses, but the only marked declines were Wheeling Ami tf .' 9. ,,;,, iis i tt i. n.7 r i -' ?',utvar' .1-an.J.

Tbe holiday rush is uniformly followed by a lull, and the reaction this season has been more decided than usual because of stringent money market. Markets are well supplied witb potatoes, and. while demand is light, prices are Arm at sources of supply, and choice stock is steady. Demand for poultry is well up to supply. Iu thi line of dairy prod ucts, cheese is tbe strong factor. Choice cream ery butter is firm, and country roll3 are slow if not strictly fancy. Oleo is preferred by the average consumer to tclerably good butter. Eggs are fairly steady. Strictly fresh nearby stock is scarce in tbo market and readily brings ontside quotations.

MARKETS M WIRE. An Unfounded Report From Plttsburs Used by Chicago Bears to Hammer Grain Government Estimates Provisions Shaded a Trifle. CHICAGO The wheat market was again weak; not immediately at the openlng,bnt with in a minute or so thereafter. As soon as tbe trading was fairly under way, the selling pres sure once more began to have its natural effect, and the most prominent operatoron tbe decline and It favor of It was Pardridge. fat. Louis also crowded tbe wire witb bear dispatches and selling orders.and even some of those who have been firm adherents to the short crop theory were to-day expressing themselves as doubtful of the reliability of the Government estimates, on which tbey have been previously relying to prove the scarcity upon which they formerly based their purchases of wheat. There were still many left, however, who pinned their faith to tbe Government figures on the ground that, however much they had been criticised in former years tbey have always been found to bo subsequently correct. Tbe price of May wheat was started at 96 or tbe same price as" it closed yesterday atter nonn, but soon weakened and declined He i"M anon penou 01 Hesitation as to lis iur thor course It declined to 95c with very trifling reaction on tbe decline. Tljere was a recovery to 95Ji from the lowest figures, and upon tbe report that the Westinghouse financial troubles had culminated in their failure thero was another break to 95c, and this was once more followed by a reaction to 95c The corn market was weak and made a- f ur tber decline of 3c Trading was fairly active, but was local in character and most ot it was confined to scalping against privileges. Oats developed additional weakness on the strength of heavy receipts, light shipments and tbe slump in other markets. Trade was fairly active. Hutchinson led the bnying and Tnttle tbe selling, which was mostly scattering. There was a lair amount of activity in the provision circle, and at tbe start tbe compara tively moderate receipts of hogs, together with an improvement of from 5 to 10c Id the price as reported from the stock yards early in the day was tbo cause of a slight improvement in price at tbe commencement of trading. The early advance was lost at tbe close. The leading lutures ranged as follows, as cor rected by J nhn M.
