Steel Rail Outlook.
The average daily output of steel rails at
the Edgar Thomson "Works for 1890 was
1,417 tons, which means that the daily yield
was lufficicut to lav more than ten miles of
single track 65-pound rails, or more than
4,000 miles for the year. To furnish these
results required the handling daily of up
ward of 10,000 tons ol materials. The water
required daily at the Edgar Thomson is, in
round numbers, 25,000,000 gallons. The
largest cast from a single blast furnace In one
day during the year was 437 tons. The largest
ncekty yield of a single furnace was 2,462 tons,
and the largest monthlj yield was 10.C04 tons.
There are seven of the nine furnaces in opera
tion at present, A and D being closed fur re
pairs. On Tuesday and 'W cdnesday of last
week, furnace II yielded S15 and 300 tons of
Bessemer iron, and I 260 and 270 tons on tho
satnedajs, with SOI tons on Monday. On the
first three days of last week the yield of the
seven furnaces in operation was 5,318 tons. It
was announced last week that the rail mill
would shut don n on February 7 for reDairs, and
extensive preparations were made to this end.
fcsince this announoement, a mill order
for rails has come in which re
quires a full week's work to fill,
and the shut down has, as a result been post
poned until February 14.
The improvements in the rail works will be
very extensive, and all the latest appliances
will bo added Anew converting house, built
almost entirely of iron, new cupolas, and four
15-ton converters to take the place of the 10-ton
converters now in ue. a new Porter Allen engine
of 2,000-bop.e po er, are f ome of the improve
ments and additions projected. The rail mill
and heating furnaces are to be rebuilt and en
larged so that larger blooms can be charged
than hitherto.
From bt. Valentine's Day on these improve
ments and additions will be pushed as fast as
- muscle and brain can do the work. The work
will lie pushed night and day, and occupation
will be given to the entire fores of willing
workers. Tho cost of the improements will
be in round numbers $200,000. and the fact that
rhe company is read to make such an outlay
is proof of their faith in a good year ahead.
'ihe furnaces mil keep right along while tho
null is being enlarged and improved, and the
output will be woikcdup into lmuhed products
at Homestead.
Furnace A, which has been undergoing ex
tensive lepairs for a month or two past, will bo
rcad to resume some time this week, and D in
about a month hence. With the nine furnaces
work'ng up to their capacity the yield for 1891
will without doubt, break all previous records,
and no fears are entertained that there will be
armarket at reasonable profits for the entire
nutpnt. bile margins on steel rails are fully
SS per ton les than a year ago, it is believed
that a reduction as great during the year to
come which is exceedingly improbable, would
Sot obliterate profits.
Canton Steel "Works.
- Colonel John J Yonng, formerly superin
tendent of tbe Hussey, Hone & Co. Steel
JVorks, of this city, for the past two j ears
President of the Canton bteel Works, Canton,
O., was in the citj yesterday, looking up busi
ness interests. The Canton Steel Works make
a specialty of spring and tool steel and much
of their material is produced in this viunitv.
Crop ends of steel blooms, produced at the Ed
car Ihomson bteel Rail Works and other works
of this region, constitute a largj part of ihe
steel w orked up into spring and tool steel at tho
Canton works. When President Young as
sumed the managemen at Canton, tbe yearly
eapacitj was about 3,500 tons, aud in the
past j ear has reached 10,000 tons with orders
more than equal to the entire production.
Employment is given to over 200 men, and the
demand for the finished steel last month was
be ond any previous month. Some orders had
to be declined because of inability to till them.
Both open hearth and crucible steel are pro
duced. Pre-ident Young has still a warm sido
for Pittburs, whore many of his best years
were spent, but has no reason to regret bis
transfer to Ohio from a business point of view,
lie pronounces the outlook for the finished
steel trade altogether satisfactory.

All Quiet In the Wheat Pit-Heavy Offer
ings Make .Cower Prices Corn and
Oats Featureless Provisions
Weaker On Heavy Stocks.
CHICAGO A quiet session succeeded the ex
citement of the preceding day, but prices were
more susceptible to news influences and were
free from tbe agitation caused by abnormally
heavy Individual trading. The influences were
the cold weather and good lnquirv for cash
wheat on the one hand, with dull markets
abroad and small export clearances. Orders
from outside were scarce, and tbe home talent
was more disposed to study the situation than
to make fresh ventures.
There were sellers of May wheat in abun
dance at SI Oiyi as soon as trading started, but
buyers at tint figure were not found lor more
than one, or tw o 5,000-bushel lot', and it was al
most at the same instant offered down as low
as $1 00 before purchasers cropped up in
sufficient numbers to balance tbe deluge of
offerings. Tho cables reported the English
markets barely stead. The price kept within
the range of 90cnnd SI 00& after the early de
cline already noted, aud closed at SI bid.
Oats were steady but less active, aud the mar
ket presented the lifeless appearance that char
acterized it preiious to yesterday's activity.
Corn opened r higher than it closed ester
day, at 54c, but that was the top price of tbe
day w bile the lowest was only a lower. There
was no excitement or unusual trading, unless
the selling by Bryant of 400.000 bushels in one
line to Hutchinson be so considered.
The receipts of hogs exceeded tbe estimates
made vesterday by b, 000 head, and tbe stocks of
provi-ions were also hoavilr in excess of gen
eral expectation, under which circumstances a
weak market wisa foregone conclusion. There
was a drop of 15c per barrel in pork immedi
ately at the opening, and in a few seconds lard
and ribs showed a loss of 5c.
Armour W2s a seller of pork through several
brokers at tbe opening, while Cuoahy and
Chapm and Edwards sold ribs and lard. Ryan
aud other packers were sellers on tbe call,
about which time the lowest prices of the day
were ruling.
Tbe leading futures ranged as follows, as cor
rected by John M. Oakley t Co., 4a Sixth street,

FOUND A LOCATION.
A Square Tip That the Allegheny
City Postoffice Will Be
LOCATED ON STOCKTON AVENUE.
A Site Found Tbat Meets All the Require
ments of the Government.
THE 0FFR OF 0XB OWNER ACCEPTED
It is generally known that the Govern
ment has been dickering for some time for a
site for a postoffice building in Allegheny
City. Several locations have been talked
of, and some examined, but objections of
one kind or another were found to them and
they were dropped. Some were too small
and others too costly.
One of tbe sites is on the corner of Ohio
and "West Diamond streets, the owners being
Mrs. Nettie Graham, A, D. Smith, Ben
Franklin Insurance Company and W. 0.
Bury. It fronts 120 feet on Ohio and rnns
back about the fame distance. The only
objection tbe Government had to it was the
price, Jlr. Bury wanting 560,000 for his
part alone. So, according to reliable in
formation, it was abandoned.
The next move was to a site at the corner
of Stockton avenue and West Diamond
street. The ground is owned by Joseph S.
Brown, Mrs. Gregg and C. Yeager. It has
a frontage of 120 feet on Stockton avenue by
a depth of 210 on "West Diamond to Park
way. Among other advantages claimed for
this location over that on Ohio and West
Diamond is a saving to the Government of
from 5,000 to 10,000 in the delivery of the
mails.
It was learned yesterday from good authority
tbat the Government has accepted Mr. Brown's
valuation and that the offers of the other
owners are receiving favorable consideration.
Mr. Brown's price. It is understood, is 50,000.
It is the Impression in the neighborhood that
this site will be chosen, corroboration of which
is found in the fact tbat values of contiguous
property have been elevated considerably since
negotiations began. The matter has been kept

A Slight Reaction, but No Heavy Losses,
Union Pacific Suffering Most Sugar
and Lake Shore Are Higher Van-
derbilts a Forenoon Feature.
New York. Feb. 3. The stock market to
day had somewhat of a reaction, though the
movement was marked only in a few stocks,
such as Union Pacific, Rock Island and Western
Union, but the rest of tbe list presented a firm
front during most of tbe time, and especially
Wheeling and Lake Erie. Lake Shore, Michi
gan Central and Pacific Mail. The strength of
tbe first named is to be attributed to the an
nouncement that Sidney Dillon had been
elected a director of the company. The Gould
stocks were also strong in tho early portion of
tbe day, and the impression in the street is tbat
Mr. Gould's trip over the Richmond Terminal
as the guest of tbe President,; John H. Inman,
is for the purpose of forming an alliance be
tween tbe road and other Sonthern roads and
the Missouri Pacific.
Tbe stroug features of the day, however,
were the Vanderbilts, and the impression that
the insider- are buying is firmly rooted in the
traders and habitues of tbe street, which lias
tbe effect or causing those stocks to Ije tightly
held, and Lake bbore to-day reached a point
which was 1 per cent above Its best price ot last
year. Michigan Central spurted up 3 per cent,
retaining most of tbe advance, and Canada
Southern showed a strong tone and more
activity than usual of late. '
The Industrials, with tbe single exception of
Chicago Gas, was strong to-day, the new Sugar
stocks rising materially. The remainder of the
market, however, was dull and sluggish
throughout the day, and Loudon was a bayer
to a limited extent in tbe early trading, and tbe
other bullish influences named were more im
portant than anything which could have an op
Toite effect.
The traders were inclined to the bear side,
and after tbe first demand had been satisfied
there was considerable pressure of short stocks
from tbat element, and prices sagged through
out the remainder of the day. The downward
movement, however? was in no cae tpeciall)
important outxide of Union Pacific and tbo
corn roads. Rock Island was tbe leader among
tbe group, but it failed to score a material loss
for the day.
Tbe trading was entirely devoid of special
feature during the afternoon, with the excep
tion of a sharp rise of 2 per cent in Tennessee
Coal in the last few minutes. The market
closed very dull aud heavy at small fractions
under tbe opening prices in most cases. There
were a few advance", however, and Sugar
Receipts are up 1, and Lake Shore , wnlle
the only important loss is VA in Union Pacific.
Railroad bonds presented a firmer lrout than
usual 6f late, and while tbe gains in tbo list
were generally insignificant tbe movement was
almost all in the upward direction, although
the marked gains were not in tbe active issues.
The total transactions reached 1.233,000 with
out snecial animation in the market. Houston
and Texas general receipts rose 2 to S3

COtS C0HFOBT DEPOSITORS.
New Creditors of Banker Kean Fall to Se
cure Preferences Asked For.
Chicago, Feb. 3. Judge Scales this morning
rendered bis decision on the petition of certain
depositors in the insolvent bank of S. A. Eean
& Co. to be made preferred creditors on the
ground that they bad made their deposits
within 30 days of the failure, during which time
it was alleged Mr. Kean knew himself to be in
solvent. The judge decided against tbe peti
tioners on the ground tbat the voluntary as
signment law of tbe State precludes prefer
ences. An appeal was taken. Judge Scales added,
however, tbat, while the petitioners could not
be admitted as preferred creditors under the
assignment law, they were entitled, in a suit at
law, to recover the amount of their deposits in
case they show they bad been induced to part
witb their property through fraud: tbat all
such claimants were entitled to relief to the ex.
elusion, of contract creditors, though there
could not bo any preferences among persons so
defrauded, but they must share the assets pro
rata. '

WINTER WISDOM.
fzchanpe.
Don't be afraid of fresh air, but avoid
draughts.
Don't go out of doors for a second without
extgi covering.
In selecting your winter underclothing
choose that which is warm and yet more or less
open in texture.
Take off your overcoat when yon enter a
warm place, whether office or private dwelling,
even if your visit Is to last only three minutes.
If you catch cold or develop a cough, get rid
of it at once. This is better than feeling "blue"
and thinking tbat pneumonia or consumption
has marked you as a victim.
The best remedy for a cough or cold (how
ever stubborn), or a sudden chill, is pure whis
key. A dose of whiskey in water will Impart a
generous warmth to tbe whole body and keep
off tbe diseases of tbe season.
Don't forget that only pure whiskey should
be taken. Duffy's Pure Malt whiskey has the
strongest recommendations from the leading
doctors as to its efficiency, and from tbe most
prominent scientists as to its purity.. It is the
only standard medicinal whiskey. Take no
other from your druggist. w
