Wednesday. Feb. 1L
There were 80 loads of cattle oo the mar
ket at East Liberty Monday morning,
acatnsl 6S loads the previous Moaday, and
D3 the week before. About five loads have
Wen received since Monday, makine; a total
of 85 loads for the week. One-half of this
Meek't offerings were from Chicago and the
other half mainly from Ohio. Very few
Indiana beeves have been coming to this
niatket of late. The quality of cattle on
tale this week was a shade below that of
last week, but was a fair average. Markets
pened slow on Monday rooming, but as
the day advanced there was a de
cided improvement, for the reason
that there were not enough cattle at the
Allegheny yards to co round. One Allegheny
butcher who seldom bnys at East Liberty
bought lb bead on Monday because his regular
supplies had failed on him. In lb. e offerings of
this week ere S to 10 loads of good 1,500 to
1,600 2 beeves, close to prime, which were sold
mostly at retail. They would have found ready
buyers in carload lots at So 25. The latter was
tun highest price paid tun week at the East
Liberty yards, by the car. One load is known
to have brought this fteure. All butcher grades
of cattle were stiong at last week's prices,
Avhile common and low grades were active at
an advance of about 10c icr cwt.
1'rcsh Cows In Better Supply.
There were very few good stockers on sale. A
few fairly good, weighing about 9C0 lis,
were sold at S3 40 to S3 50. Fresh cows were in
much better supply than last wees, and prices
were well maintained, the range boing S25 to
MB. Veal cahes were in moderate supply and
in active demand, at a range of Cc to TVc. the
latter being paid for a few extras. All offer
ings of cattle were well cleared up to-day. Only
a few odds and ends are left in the yards. Ihe
run of hogs on Monday was lisht, there beiurr
30 loads on sale, against 45 loads th previous
.Monday, and 50 tbe .Monday before.
Owing to the light run markets opened active
andnrong. with S3 90 to SI 00 as the top price
for rinladelphlas. Later on in the day news
came of an immenso run at Chicago, one of
the very largest on record, and that prices
Cropped to S3 45 for top'. This had the effect or
w cakemng markets at East Liberty, and prices
Cropped back to S3 90 as the outside. Since
Monday receipts have been light, and markets
jnrtially regained some of their lost strength.
Total receipts of hogs during the week were
less than JO load, against 70 loads lat week.
Demand is principally for light hogs. Heavy
weights go slow.
Sheep and Lambs There have been, all tnld,
about a dozen loads on sale this week. Gen
eral qualitj below par. Good sheep were
strong at last week's prices. Top price for
wethers and lambs was S3 oO and 6 50.

Wheat Swings Back and Forth and
Finishes at a Loss Corn and Oats
Neglected Provisions Active,
but Trices Let Go.
CHICAGO Tho wheat market lost the buy
ing snap which characterized it yesterday after
noon, and tho bears succeeded in depressing
the price of May to 97c toward the close of
the session, and it rested" at the lowest point of
the day and c lower than on the day before.
There were no particular features in the trad
ing beyond the steady support which a few
heavy traders holding bearish opinions gave to
the side they advocated and the lukewarmness
of the adherents of the rival faith. Cables
were onlj mildly encouraging and the weather
was clear and spring-like.
The May delivery at the start was freely of
fend at 9Sc with no buyers to speak of, but
when sellers had reduced their demands to
96c and 87Jc which they did immediately,
the remainder of the crowd jumped for it, and
It was selling within a few seconds of the open
ing a: 9SJc; a little later it was being traded in
at'JsSJc Bane and antidote, both of diluted
strength, were alternately administered iu the
shape ot the ncw, and the subsequent fluctua
tions swung slowly back and forth in a narrow
range in lazv response; from OTJic to 9S9.JC was
the range. Every time the price would show
above 93c, after it had gradually worked off
from the high point In the first hour's trading,
there was enough offered to keep It from get
ting above I'SKc. and on every occasion when a
decline lo Blfc took place there were buyers
enough to again send it back to 93c During
the last ten minutes trading price of May
broke to and closed at 97c
The trading in corn was governed mainly by
Hutchinson's (supporting orders, which ab
sorbed the offerings of the crowd. Transac
tions were light and the range narrow.
The oats market was dull and nanow, show
ing a range of less than Jicln the May luture.
Wnat little-trade there was was all of a scalp
ing nature.
There was a good deal of activity in the pro
vision marker, and weakness with free selling
out by country noldeis. was the feature. The
Government estimate of 50,600,000 hogs In the
country on January L or ooly 1,000.000 less than
at the corresponding time a' year ago, appeared
to carry the conclusion to tho minds of holders
that they had played into the packet s' hands
loog enough. Outsiders were the sellers; pCK
ers were also putting out heavier lines, and
local scalping snorts gave the market the only
support it received. The receipts of bogs were
about as expected, and prices were reported to
be lower. There was au eager selling pressure
from the start, and prices suffered a heavy
diminution.
The leading tntures ranged as follows, as cor

The work of putting in a new front and
otherwise remodeling the Fort Pitt Bank
building, or Hostetter block, on Fourth
avenue, was begun yesterday. The front
will be lighter thaa the present one, more
glass being used, and will be one of the
handsomest in the city. The improvement
of most importance to'the business public will
be an elevator.

Work on California avenue is progressing as
fast as the weather will permit. It is being
graded on the Witmer, Oliver and Walker
properties, almost to Jack's run. Nothing has
been done toward bridging tho run, which is
the heaviest part of the work, but this will be
done the coming summer. It Is thought the
road will be opened next fall.

Two of the Finest.
The new building of tho National Bank of
Commerce is hearing completion. Some of the
upper floors are occupied. In plan and execu
tion the object has been to put up a good, sub
stantial business bouse that will be a credit to
the city at as reasonable cost as possible. There
fore the useful has been given precedence over
the merely ornamentak It Is provided with all
modern improvements and appliances for busi
ness and comfort, and is as nearly fire-proof as
possible.
:The German National, in the same locality,
i being hurried along as fast as possible. In
describing it yesterday a gentleman said: "It
is a symphony in stone; a symposium of the
finest effects that can ba wrought in granite
and wood br the most skillful hands." Tho
cost of this building will bo about S300.000.
No Place for Grumblers.
Some people arc enthusiastic or nothing.
They are dissatisfied with the regular course of
things. If business be good they want it
better. Conditions are nothing to them. They
think recovery from financial depression should
be instantaneous. These people are now
growling because trade is not up to tho pitch
of the same time last year. It is true there is
no boom in anything in Pittsburg, but there is
something better-substantial, permanent
growth, growth that inspires confidence and
invites capital, growth that assures good
return to investors in almost any line of
activity, a safe, healthv growth that can be
depended upon. Pittsburg is full of opportuni
ties to capitalists at home aud abroad for safo
aud profitable investment.

1TEW YORK STOCKS.
Shares Less Active Bulls ltule the Day in
the Early Morning, Followed by
Bear Balds, but Only One
Change ot Note.
New York, Feb. 1L The stock market was
leas active to-day than for two weeks. While
it was firm to strong, as nsual of late, in the
foreuoon.it reacted later in the day. AU the
early improvement was lost, with something in
addition in most cases. The market, however,
was more than usual ot late a traders' market,
and the selling was of a purely professional
character, the bears selling on a further agita
tion of the silver question and upon an allega
tion that Mr. Cammack was advising bis
friends to go short of the market. Unless all
reliable information is at fault there is nothing
in either rumor.
The day opened with some support apparent
in many of the leading shares, but later this
was withdrawn, and the bears attaoked several
specialties, with the effect of weakening them.
The Oregon Improvement Company bonds
which have been offered to stockholders are
being taken up rapidly, and the receivership,
it is expected, will therefore soon be brought to
an end.
The temner of the room in the early dealings
was moderately bullish, but there was no dis
position to trade, and the transactions in the
m.irKct were the smallest for some time, wbic
had the uual effect of encouraging bear at
tacks, aud the traders fell in behind. A droop
ing tendency was first noticed in Union Pacific
and Atchison, which afterward spread to the
entire list, and eventually the advauces of tho
first hour wpre wiped out.
A special attack was made upon Chicago Gas
in the afternoon, and it was depressed 1 per
cent to 40. trout which it recovered only a
slight fraction. The changes m the rest of tbe
list.were entirely insignificant, and tbe market
closed dull and heavy at abuut the lowest price
for tbe day, and slightly lower than last even
ing, witn the exception of Chicago Gas, which
is down 1M per cent.
Railroad bonds were more quiet and dis
played a great lack of tone and leatnre, while
sympathizing closely with the transactions iu
stocks. There were a few important advances,
however, while tbe losses were insignificant.
The total business done was only;Sl,3oU,000. Chi
cago, Burlington and Northern firsts rose 2 to
103. New Jersey Junction tiists. 2 to 102. and the
Virginia Midland generals 2 to 89, and the
stamped bonds 3 to 90.

STEALING THE WATER.
Coal Operators Protest Against Encroach
ments Upon the Channel Bridge Build
ing to He Stopped A Government In
lestlgation High Water In the Alle
gheny Ttiver Drift.
A meeting was held yesterday morning in
the office of tbe Advance Coal Company.
Colonel W. E. Merrill, Chief Engineer of
the Ohio river, and representatives from the
coal firms of Joseph Walton fe Co.. W. Y.
O'Neil Coal Company, Wood !c Sons, the Ad
vance Coal Company and Brown's Sons. The
meeting was the result of a petition sent to the
Secretary of War by the coal operators pro
testing against tbe Bessemer bridge, tbe loca
tion of tbe Beaver dam and the encroachments
in the Pittsburg harbor. Colonel Merrill has
been Instructed to investigate the complaints
and report to the War Department.
The river men presented a statement that the
bridge was uearly a foot too low, and would
seriously obstruct navigation. Tbey also pro
tested against the location of the Beaver dam.
They claim that if built at tbe point indicated
navigation would he exceedingly dangerous, az
the channel of the Ohio would be constantly
shifting. Tbe most important complaint was
in relation to the encroachments in the Pitts
burg harbors. They presented plans showing
the prescribed nautical Hues and survey show
ing the present width of tbe river
Colonel Merrill took the statements, and said
he would immediately investigate and report
them to Washington. He also intimated that
he would stop tbe construction of tho Beaver
bridge pending Investigation.
THE WATSBS EECZTJUTO.
The Allegheny Ttlver Over the Pittsburg
and Western Itallroad Tracks.
The highest stage reached by tho river yester
day was 19 feet 8 inches and stationary, with
indications of it falling slowly during the
night. Tbe highest reached at Parkersburg
yesterday was 24 feet 2 inches; at Cincinnati, 41
feet 3 inches; at Louisville. 18 feet 9 inches.
Notwithstanding tbe stage of water, not one
tow of coal has gon out, owing to the strike
of the upriver miners.
But once before this winterbas the Allegheny
river been so high at this point as during the
past few days. Yesterday afternoon It regis
tered 20 feertan J was falling. Tbe engines on
tbe Pittsburg and Western could barely move
along the river bank beneath the Ninth street
bridge without putting out their fires. The
water was way orer the strip of land between
tbe tracks and the river from the station to
just above the bridge.
The boat houses seemed to be a good distance
out in the river and connection with some of
them had to be made by means of skiffs. Con
siderable difficulty was experienced in unload
ing coal barges, owing to the high water.

ADVOCATES FREE COINAGE.
Ex-Congressman Warner WU1 Speak In Its
Favor In Boston Ho Says Mr. Windom's
Predictions Are Groundless Prepared
With Arguments and Facts.
General A. J. Warner, tbe Marietta ex
Congressman, and Mrs. Warner arrived at
the Seventh 'Avenue Hotel last evening.
Tbey stopped over to attend the funeral
of J. N. McCnllough to-day, and are
on their way to Boston, where the General will
deliver a speech on Friday, in Faneuil Hall,
advocating the Irec coinage of silver. He Is
loaded to tbe muzzle with facts and argnments,
and is prepared to answer tbe last speech made
by Mr. Wiudoic.
On this subject he said: "In America 16
ounces of silver will buy as mnch as an onnco
of gold. Iu Kuropo tbe ratio is 15 to I, and
tho only question about the free coinage of
silver Is, can our Government maintain the
above parity; I claim we - have
the power. The balance of trade
Is in our favor, anil will continue to be so for
years to come, if I mistake not. If France with
a population of only 28,000,000 maintained its
ratio, why can't we with our
big population and increased Health?
Our wealth Increases every year at
the rate of 3K per cent, while
in Europe it Is only 1 per cent. People should
remember also tbat.au ounce of silver in bul
lion 13 the same as an ounce iu money. .The
sliver with the Government stamp on it, which
costs notuing, does not btdong'tu Uncle Sam.
but to the owner of tbe bullion who hadic
coined.
"I arj not afraid of gold going to a premium
or of Europe sending her ilver to America.
Tbe entire silver production of the world an
nually is $150,100,000. Ol this amount $30,000,000
is u-ed in the art.", and America needs 875.000,
OCOtn provide for the increase in population
and wealth. There is not much danger of tbe
country being flooded wlih the balance.. Amer
ica bas a currency of 31,500,000.000, and this sum
is needed to maintain present commercial re
lations. Tbe greatest menace t the country
is tbe bank credit system, which bas nothing
substantial back of if. and is the principal
