IRON TRADE REVIEW.
The Improvement in Tone Isoted Last

and
KEl'ORTS FE01I TEE LEADING CEXTEKS
The improved tone to iron markets noted
in this column last week still holds. Mill
iron and Bessemer arc a shade hicher and
firm at the advance. The troubles in the
coke regions and the stoppage of so many
fnrnaces in the Mahoninj: Valley rejrion
begin to be felt in the increased firmness of
markets. Holders arc much firmer in tbeir
views, as they know that stocks are
steadily diminishing and the situation has
turned :o the seller's favor, a condition un
known for many montlis past. The mills arc
receiving orders which must be filled,
and. while manufacturers of flnihed products
have been steadily resisting the advance de
manded by rurnacctnen, they have been com
pelled to come to it. An adjustment of the
coue troubles and a srant of freight rates de
manded by Mahoning and bhenango Valley
furnaces would, without doubt, put a different
Vhatennthe tituation. At present, however,
tonnof raa'kcts is stiong, and price of mill
irons is a shade 'uglier as proved by actual
transactions. Nails and rails are unchanged.

rsrECiAi. TctroitAjt to this dispatch. 1
PHlLADELrniA. Feb. 20. The condition of
the local trade shows some improvement, but
there is still a good deal of irregularity. In the
majority of cases standard brands are well
sold up and quite film, but in spot sales, owim;
to accumulations and the desire to lessen stock,
tales have, in somo cases, been made at very
lo prices, and on very large orders the reduc
tion has been at about 50 cents less than the
ordinary quoted rates. Although there is a
ood strong undertone, yet the position is as
yet a little mixed. Fig iron, while still
showing some irregularity, is believed to be in
an Improved condition. The sales in this
market have been on a moderate cale at about

this vicinity. Holders are asking K7 0027 50

very few sellers at the inside figure, and some

PHICES BTIFFiKIKG UP.
An Adancc in the Chicago Market Checks
tho Buying Movement.
rSPfcCIAl. TULrGBAM TO THE DISPATCH.I
Chicago. Feb. 20. Rogers, Urown and Jler
win say: The week has been characterized by
a decided stiffening in prices on coke irons,
particularly those irons made in the Alabama
district, furnaces m that region having ad
vanced prices from 25 to 50 cents per ton. The
advance basbeen brought about by the large
demand which has prevailed of late, and the
heavy sales made by most of the leading com
panies. Charcoal irons have, however, remained
very quiet, few transactions of importance
having been consummated.
The stiffening of prices has had the effect of
somewhat checking the buying movement of
this district, consumers feeling indisposed to
make large purchases at the advanced figures
at which coke metal i being held. The out
look, however, points to a maintenance of
prices now ruling, the tendency being upward,
and a further advance on coke irons is not un
likely to occur.

6t. IOC19, Feb. 20. Rogers, Brown and
ile-cbam say: Business during the past week
basbeen lairly active Inquiries continue to
come in and a number of small sales have been
made. The Southern furnaces have not caught
up on orders delayed during the strike, and In
some crades there i quite a scarcity. The call

THE MARKET BASKET.
Improved Demand for Ocean Products
Uses Lower, ltnttcr Higher.
The week rast has not been a favorable one
to retail dealers in market basket materials.
The high waters shut out a multitude of cus
tomers from the markets for a day or two, and
there havo been few signs of a revival since the
waters subsided. Vegetables uf all kinds are
abont as they were a w eek ago as to price. The
jobbing price of creamery butter has advanced
2c per pound within the week. Eggs sharply
declined at the beginning of tho week and have
been selling in a jobbing wayat 17c per dozen.
Since the arrival of tlm Lenten season there
ha beon an improved demand for lake and
ocean products, bnt prices remain unchanged.
Florists report a good week owing to strong de
mand for luneral decorations. Staple meats
are as they have been lor months past.

THE WOUNDED IN BATTLE
Need Never Tear Being Trampled to Death
by Caalty.
bt. Louis Globe-Democrat. J
To have a troop of cavalry pass OTer a
man's prostrate body would seem far more
perilous than to lie in the path of infantry,
but the direct contrary is the case. TJnless
horses are in masses, a thing that seldom
occurs in modern warfare, a man may lie
directly in the path ot a galloping regiment
without the fear that a single hoot will
touch him.
A horse naturally avoids putting his foot
on anything higher than the surrounding
ground, and would no more think of step
ping on top oT a man than on ton of a log or
n 6tone. Horse after horse will pass di
rectly over a wounded man without touch
ing him. But if he lies in the way of rap-,
idly advancing infantry, he stands an ex--celient
chance of being tramped to. death, . .
REALTY PICKING UP.
A Number of Transactions Showing
That Sometbing Is Going On.
THE BUTER VERY MDGH ABROAD.
Boston Gives tho Cue far Renewed Euyinc
of Westinshouse Electric
THE HEWS AKD GOSSIP OF TUB CITI
All the real estate brokers spoken to yes
teiday on the subject, reported a good and
improving market. J. H. Coleman, of the
firm of Black & Baird, closed the sale of the
Lawman property, at Roup station, a large
brick dwelling nnd lot about 60x170, the
cbnsideration being J15.000. Tne purchaser
is 3 prominent Southsido physician.
Mr." Tames G. Bennett, the Wood street
hatter, having a fondness for suburban
felicity, cons'unimated a deal yesterday with
Mr. N. Henry.for the latter's residence on
Sonth Higblandavonuc, paying S12, 000 therefor.
He will occupy it in the spring. Another hand
some residence in the same locality changed
ownership, but nothing further can bo said
until tne deed passes.
Another transaction that came to a lfcvtd yes
terday was that of about five acres near TJopc
land. a suburb of Brad dock, presumably prt
of the Mills estate, at a price approachinjj
S2.O00 an acre. Tho object of the purchase, as
stated, is the erection of a manufacturing
plant of somo kind.
"Why Rents Aro High.
Some of the property owners of tho city aro
complaining of high taxes. One of them said
yesterday: "Almost one-third of all the money
I receive for rents goes for taxes. This is about
the average. Poor people complain of high
rents, and with good reason. If taxes were re-
rduced to a reasonable basis, owners could
muse a material reduction In this item and get
a better return than thev are now receiving.
Lower rents are essential to the prosperity of
the community, but the city must do its part to
make them possible. It is unreasonable to nut
all the burden upon property owners. Public
improvements aie all right, but they should
be for use and not show."
Nothing to Complain Of.
Business is iD snch good shape here that there
is very little to complain of. There are no ob
structions in the way of improvement that time
and energy cannot remove. Recent large pur
chases of real estate on SmithSeld street, Penn
avenue and in other parts of the city show that
the buyer is still abroad, and that good proper
ty is salable at remunerative figures. The ex
perience of many years in Pittsburg shows that
real estate is one of the first interests to re
cover from depression. With a steadily grow,
ing population, lands and houses are alwavs in
demand.
Money Needed at Home
Money earned in Pittsburg should be em
ployed for tho beneht of Pittsburg. There are
as good opportunities for profitable investment
here as anywhere else in the world. If those
capitalists who dumped large sums of money in
Western wildcats some time ago had bought
acreage in any of the surrounding districts here
they would be better oft to-day. and the city
would be so much the richer.
Business News and Gossip.
The latest deal in realty on Smith field street,
below Fifth, was at the rate of 2,500 a foot
front.
It is stated that the Equitable Insurance
Company has not entirely abandoned the idea

A gentleman residing in the new town of
Dawson, jnst above Coal Valley, on the Monon

HOME SECTJHITIES.
Considerable Trading, With Electric and
Philadelphia Gas Fractionally Stronger.
The sessions of the Stock Exchange yester
day wero unattended by anything of a specially
interesting nature. Trading was fair. Total
sales were 890 shares, of which 720 were Elec
tric. Other contributing interests were La
Noria. Pleasant Valley and Luster.
Electric opened at tho lowest point of the day
and closed at the highest, the gain being over
half a point. Its activity and strength wero
dne to favorable news from Boston. A broker
just home from New York said the opinion
there was that most of the recent buying of
this stock was in the interest of the Thomson-
xiouston Company.
Tho tractions were a trifle weaker, but Phila
delphia Gas placed a good fraction to its credit.
The rest of the list displayed no particular ten
dency to move cither way.

Operators in Stocks Awaiting Developments
Dull Market the Result Industrial
Shares the Only Feature Silver
Was Again Weak.
NEW York, Feb. 20. The interruption of
telegraphic communication over a .large por-J
tion of the country added to the already very
marked indisposition of both domestic and for
eign operators to do anything in the stock mar
ket pending developments served to render the
transactions to-day the smallest for any full
day for the present year and a long time previ
ous. The only movements in the list of note
were those in the corn roads, the Villard and
the industrial, the last named being, if any
thing, the features of the day, especially the
cotton oil stocks, which were active and strong
under the manipulation of the bulls on the
property, both the old and the new stock ris
ing over 1 per cent. Silver was again weak.
The rest of the market was absolutely with
out foature of any kind, and while there was a
hrni opening with further advances In the corn
roads tbe hammering operations of the traders
brought most stock, below the level of the
opening, prices. The covering later brought
everything up again, and the best prices of the
day were reached In the last hour, the market
finally closing dull but firm at small fractions
better than the opening figures. The final
changes are all small fractional advances with
no material improvement anywhere.
Railroad bonds were relatively more active
than shares, but the business of only $898,000
was small enough, and the trading as in stocks
was devoid of feature throughout the entire
session, the final changes being confined to the
smallest fractions, though generally in the di
rection of higher figures.
Government bonds were dull and steady.
Stato bonds were entirely neglected.

A PERILOUS CALLING.
INFOEMATION ON THE BUSINESS
MAKING EXPLOSIVES.
OF
The Danger Decreased by Better Workman
ship and Modern Methods Xews From
the Oil Fields Wlldwood's Latest Gusher
Declining Fast Two McCurdy WeUs.
The Dispatch scout yesterday inter
viewed a member of the High Explosive
Torpedo Company, and was given the follow
ing information concerning the industry:
The torpedo business is a very hazardous
calling, and there are but few, if any, other
occupations in which men engage
where the risk of life is so great.
There are not, however, so many
fatalities now as in the past, and there is not
one shooter blown up now where, in days
gone by, two or three lives were sacrificed. Tho
l eduction ot casualties is duo to two facts:
First, there is, as a rule, abetter and more In
telligent class of shooters employed; second,
the facilities for handling explosives are much
superior than ever before, while tbe companies
spare no pains nor cxnenso in guarding against
accident. With the growth and expanse cf tho
oil fields the torpedo trade has attained great
proportions and is one of the most important
adjuncts to the oil industry. At present there
are not less than 100 shooters engaged in the
business, who command from SS0 to 100 per
month.
Taking tho territory from Oil City down to
Belmont, W. Va.. tbe number ot shots ex
ploded in wells will average 200 per month. In
this line.tho most activity is in Butler and Alle
gheny counties, between which it is pretty
evenly divided as to the amount of work done.
Tho shots will average about eight quarts. In
the Witdwood hold they run lrom 2 to 50
quarts, while the largest shots used are in
Butler and West Virginia, where they run as
high as 150 quarts. In McKean and Elk
counties 100 quarts is considered an average
shot. Approximately, in tbe territory above
mentioned, 25.000 pounds of glycerine are con
sumed every month, which bring a revenue of
S35.000. Figuring on this basis the number of
shots exploded in one year is 2,400, aggregating
in value $420,000. The present price of a 100
quart shot in tho Southwest district is S133, and
in the upper fields 115.
Tho Big Well Tallinn OfC
rSrECI.ll, TKLXGRAU TO THE niSPATCn.1
WltDWOOD, Feb. 2a The only change to be
noted on the southwest lino in the Wildwood
field is the rapid decline of tho Greenlee &
Forst well on the Alston tract. A personal
gauge of tbe well at noon to-day indicated that
I the well was making 16 inches an hour, or about
40 barrels in a 250 tank. Later reports say the
well is away off and not producing more than
15 or 20 barrels an hoUr, but this rumor the
scout was unable to confirm. The well was not
drilled any to-day, the work of moving out the
boiler and making connections taking up tbe
day". If everything works to advantage the well
willU)o started sometime to-morrow.
Grufith & Co.'s No. 4 Ringheisen was not
deepened to-day, and there is no material change
in its production from that of yesterday, which
was between 200 and 300 barrels a day. Greenlee
& Forsr, elated over their success on the
Peebles, have started another rig and have
made thrtee more locations, Ireland & Hughes,
on tho Bryant, are four hits in the sand with 800
feet of oipjn the hole, but it has made no flow.
The well, in its present status, is show
ing for la fair producer, with chances
of getting Something better on deeper drilling.
Tbe Evans $ Mandeville well, ou the Marks
farm, shows no improvement, and to-night is
making about 125 barrels a day. They have
made a location on the Kretzer farm. Griffith
Co.'s No. IRin2heisen. is ten bits in the
sand, and wheii The Dispatch scout left the
well there was po oil in the hole. The Roth Oil
Company havevnade a location on Peebles'
heirs' farm for No. 2, and Finegan fc Downing
on the Wallace, aire putting in the big casing at
Nos. 2 and 3, and Vo. 4 Is down 500 feet.
McDevitt was shot to-day and bridged over.
The probability is (hat the well has been im
proved. Dickson S Co., on the McCune, are
ten feet in tbe sandAbut as vet have found no
oil. Chester A Co., oft the Barr, will be treated
to a dose of high explosive soon, and the same
parties' well, on the NAncy Gibson farm, is on
top toe 100 foot sand. Ghestcr & McCaw have
started tho drill on tna ju. J. aiccaw farm,
and Dunlap & Co. are clening out their well
on the Nancy Gibson farup. and will get it to
Sumning in a few days, yilack & Co., on the
IcMurray, are putting ill the first string
of casing in Nu. 1, and tNo. 2 is drilling
in the 30-foot. The P. & W. No. 2 will case
Monday if no bad luck ocelli"3- The Sunttn
Oil Company have cased with the first string in
No. 1 on the Hardy farm. 03arbuh No. 11,
Roth Oil Company, is mnkinVr 26 inches an

METHODS OF A MAN COOK.
Tho Ways of tho French Chef Are Ni
Ways of Bridget.
"One of the things to which did noi at
once become accustomed in my man cookts,"
said a housekeeper who has lately attached
a chef to her establishment to a writer Un
the New York Times, "is his iorehandec
ness. Soon after his arrival I gave a din
ner, and being used to going downstairs
late in tbe afternoon at such times, and alsa
a little curious to see ii mere were a pro
nounced difference between tbe methods
ot Bridget, the deposed, and Pierre, the
newly arrived, I made an errand to the
kitchen. I could see at once that my pres
ence was deemed an impertinence, but I for
got to resent this in my horror at the condi
tion of affairs. The dinner was set for 8
o'clock, and it was then between 5 and 6; as
far as I could see, however, it might have
been sent to the table at that mo
ment A saddle of Canada mutton was
the piece de resistance, and this
Pierre was drawing from the oven for what
appeared to me a final basting. Vegetables
that took 20 minute?, as I supposed, to cook
were gayly bubbling on the range, an entree
was ready to be put together, and the cook
was apparently about to perform that act;
sauces were made and standing in the bain
marie; the fish kettle was on, and I sus
pected it contained the fish apparently the
dinner was ready and spoiled.
"I ventured a remark. 'You understand,
Pierre,' I said, "we dine at 8.'
" 'Ob, yes, Madame,' he answered. Then,
as if he were willing to tolerate this one
interference: 'Madame need have no fear.
Everything will be ready at the instant.'
'I thought it might be and withdrew
fairly sick with anxiety over what seemed
to me a hopeless failure. That dinner, how
ever, was perfection, every dish apparently
served at the moment of its prime. And
since then I have trusted Pierre and haven't
gone down stairs to be distressed by his
promptness."
MEISEONIES AS A MAN.
His Physical Make-Up and His Vanity and
Irritability.
Pall Mall Budget. 1
Meissonier was a short, stoutlv-built man.
He had a broad, powerful chest, but his legs
were very short, and were inclined to be
"bandy." His face was extremely power
ful, with its vivid blue eyes, well-formed
aquline nose, and venerable patriarchial
beard. Meissonier lived extravagantly.
He was a very irritable man. He drove
away hosts of clients by his careless, gruff
manner. Americans were his best custom
ers, but he held them in the deepest abhor
rencepartly by reason of their habit of
patronizing-him. He bad enough personal
vanity to equip three or lour ordinary men
But when his gout was not worrying him he
could be one of the most amiuble men
living.

MARKETS BY WIEE.
The Prostration of "Wires Interferes With
the Regular Coarse ofthe Market
A Nervous Revival in Wheat
Oats Continues Stiff.
CHICAGO Tbe wires were down In all direc
tions, and consequently the Chicago specu
lative market were without tbe usual influ
ences when trading commenced. There was
tho tamest sort of opening in the wheat pit at
yesterday's closing prices. May wheat was
passed around at 97c Not until about one hour
and a half of the session had passed was there
much evidence that tbe local bulls and bears
would ventnre far from shore. A prediction
that the storm would be followed by 15 or 20
of fron within the next 36 hours, was one of
the influences whicb caused an advance to bo
noted later.
When New York and cable dispatches began
to como to hand there was a distinct revival, a
feeling of rlruincss being quoted abroad. After
fluctuating between 97Jc and 96K096c tho
price began to advance quickly to VTJJc. I here
wero several upward and then downward tnrns
to the market between 97c and 97c and tho
close was 97c bid.
The corn deal opened in a nervons manner,
with a bullish sentiment predominating. The
pit was full of buyers at 5'Ai and 5.5c was im
mediately the bid price, with 56c me point at
which sellers freelv supplied the demand.
There was a gradual decline occupying about
an hour in its course, which was charged once
more at 55Jc It gradually climbed again,
touching COc and once again settled to tbe pre
vious price nith a fewtraucs at 55c. Itrecov
ered again to 55c but in the end got down to
50kc and closed at that price.
Bayers of oats combined to hold tho market
steady at yesterday's advance.
The provisions market was higher, owing to
dearer hogs and the advance in corn. Shorts
were the best buyers, and they were for a brief
space of time supplied by offerings from
Armour and Cudahy, but upon these packers
deserting and none of the others willing to take
their place, the shorts had bid for tbe stuff and
it ruled firm and occasionally strung.

A EEHSAEB'S MIMIC EESCTJE.
Trick of a Fine Doc; That Always Excites
Rounds of Applause.
New York Times.!
A gentleman who has a handsome home in
one of the fashionable suburbs has a fine
St. Bernard dog. He has taught the intelli
gent animal a trick of which he isextremely
proud. The dog's name is Monk. The
trick is an elaborate one, and includes the
tilling by the owner of a dramatic tale of
hardship. Upon a signal, Monk, who
usually reposes in front ofithe broad open
fireplace, lies down before his master, with
his big head stretched out oo the floor be
tween his ontspread paws, and looks up ex
pectantly. Then the owner begins, in a low
voice, the prologue.
It is a thrilling story of a poor wanderer
struggling up the passes of the Alps, lost in
the blinding snow. Monk listens intently
to every word. His voice growing stronger,
the gentleman describes the wayfarer us
overcome with fatigue, and tells how,
thoroughly worn ont, he lies down to rest.
At this point the gentleman stretches him
self out on the floor, resting his head on his
arm, face downward. Monk remains per
fectly rigid. The gentleman goes on recit
ing in a tone growing gradually softer. He
tnrns up his coat collar, and then, lifting
one hand high above his head, lets fall a
shower of fine white paper.
As the pieces representing a gust of snow
flurry down, Monk bounds across the floor,
barking at the top of bis lungs, and, reach
ing the prostrate form of his master, lies
down, stretching his paws across his bacK
and poking his big Mack nose under his col
lar. He whines and sunffi and pounds tho
floor with his big white tail. Then, finding
that all such efforts to resuscitate the wan
derer are unavailing, Monk rises, and, lilt
ing his head, sends forth a howl of woe that
would unquestionably bring the whole
Alpine hospice to the rescue
Then comes the climax. Monk sieres the
coat collar and is about to drag away tho
helpless man, when life suddenly returns,
and tbe exhibition ends with a lively tussle
between dog and man, and joyous howls of
delight on the part of Monk. Of course a t
ronnd of applause always follows tbe entertainment.

THE IBTECnOUS DISEASES.
Smallpox Is a Little Darder to Catch Than
Generally Supposed.
There is a general misapprehension on
the part of the public as to the danger of in
fection in smallpox cases, says Dr. H.
Jacobson, of St. Louis, in the Globe-Democrat.
A physician can not carry the in
fection from house to house in bis clothing
for a variety of reasons, the principal ono
being that the air is an excellent disin
fectant. Again, the danger in smallpox
is when there has been long and con
stant contact, as, for instance, in ths
bedding and clothing of patients. 'With
scarlet fever there is greater danger of con
veying the disease by even brief contact,
especially during the desquamating period,
when there are fine scaly particles flying
about tnat may adhere to the clotnes.
Indiscriminate kissing is probably ths
greatest cause of spreading disease all kinds
of sore throat being freely transmitted in
this way, and many cases of diphtheria are
directly attributed to it, while some of tha
most horrible constitutional diseases may bo
imparted by a single kiss. Some people are
predisposed to certain diseases, whether
smallpox, scarlet fever, diphtheria or auy
tbing else, and these, by the simplest acts,
may "catch" a disease while others incur
ten times the risk with absolute impunity.
