At Woods' Run and East Liberty At
Woods' Hun yards there were 134 head
of cattle on sale from Chicago and 2d had from
Ohio. Chicago cattle sold at a range if 4Ji to
ojc per lb aud Ohio s trom 4i to 5 pei lb.
Cost of offering was about 10c per Hundred
loner than last, week, but the decline heie was
greater. Markets were slow, and in favor of
buyers, Dut all were sold at noon, but at 15 to
20c per cent lower prices tban could have bceu
obtained a week ago.
There were no sheep on sale at Woods' Run
yards. The number of lambs offered was 032
bead, some of which were extra tine, weighing
KiO pounds and upward. The lambs on sale
were clipped List tall, and were sold at a range
of $5 75 to SO b. the latter price being obtained
lor a tew bunches of fancy stock.
There were 292 head ot hogs on sale, and all
w ere sold at $4 00 to 4 10 per cwt.
There were 85 loads of cattle on tha market
at Kast Liberty yards at the opening this morn
ing. The previous Monday there were between
CO and 65 loads on sale, and 90 loads the week
before. Chicago, Indiana am Ohio were the
sources of supply. Quality of offerings was
much as usual, there being a small proportion
of good or prime beeves. Chicago shippers, in
spite of costly experience, seem torcgaidthis
market a good dumping giound for interior
stock, w hich is left over at borne for want of
buyers.
Prospects were good this morning for further
expensive experience, as it looked as though a
goodly number of low-grade cattle
would of necessity be shipped ou Kast for wau:
of buyers. Buyeis were not on hand in as largo
force as usual, and those on hand made the
most of their opportunity from the largo run.
Markets opened slow at a decliuc of 10 to 15
per cent from last week's prices ami a still
further decline was anticipated, Smooth, light
butcher stock weighing 1,100 to 1,200 pounds
suffered least fioin the decline. Beeves ol this
grade are seldom in over supply in this market.
hheep aud lambs Orlenngs were light, there
being only 9 loads on sale, against 11 loads
last Monday and 14 loads the week before.
(Jond sheep wer; stronger, and lambs steady
at last week's prices. A carload of Jlndoc
sheep from near Columbus. Om was sold at
55 65. which was iun tupof market. The aver
age weight was 105 fis. Auothercarof broken
wool sheep sold at 4 b5. I.aiubs sold at a range
of 6c to J6 40.
Hogs Tnerc were about 3G loads on the mar
ket, against about half this number a week
ago. Last week markets were active on the
light run. and this week the situation is re
versed on a iieavy run. Top prime this morn
ing was N sua uu, anu very lew reached: theie
figu res.
Top price at Chicago this morning was $3 70.
Markets here were in favor of the buyer all
along the line.

CHICAGO The milder weather and a light
fall of snow, which was reported to bs quite
general over Kausas aud Missouri, predisposed
the wheat speculators to the selling side at the
opening, w bile cables were firm. There was an
increase in the stocks of wheat and flour at
Liverpool, and the receipts In the Northwest
were rather large. U ne result was a rush of
selling mders, which for a fraction of a second J
put the price of May down to 9650. compared I
with9(i?if96cat tuo close of Saturday's ses
sion, 'lucre was an Immediate rebound to
96KC anJ the bulk of the business thereafter
uptowithtn an hour of the close was done at
and around OtrJiC
The firmness which was apparent within a
Jew minutes of the opening was Increased
toward the close by the strength of the latest
foreign dispatches. The London market was
auotedtutbe Board of Trade la per quarter
earer for wheat (equal to 3s per bushel), and
Cd per sack higher fur flour. The Mav delivery
was advanred to UTJe aud closed at 97K97ic.
Of the 259 cars it com received to-day not one
was of coutract grade. The weather was moist
over a considerable stretch of country, which
is against any increase ot contract grain. ' The
market opened arm for May. aud the offerings
were so slight in response to the bids that it
soon advanced to 5Cc There was a dull spell
and a somewhat heavier feeling when tho es
timated receipts fur to-morrow were reported
as 412 cars, but tho shorts were the uneasr
party in the dayN dealings, and it did not re
quire much cllort on the part of a few good
buyers to run a good many of them in a sale
or two as high as 5GJc took place.
vats opened steady, advancing witn corn
and declining when that cereal weakened, The
market was quiet and uninteresting.
The provision market was firm at the com
mencement of the trading, and gathering
strength as the day progressed a considerable
advance In prico was established for all the
leading speculative commodities. Pork opened
un 5c ami made an advance of about 7c near
the close. Lard was advanced from Jo 85 for
May at the opening to $5 92. and closed at the
latter quotation compared with $5 85 on Satur
day. Kibs gained 7c.

HOW THE! MAT BE LENGTHENED.
People Interested In Electric Subjected to
Another Disappointment.
THE SEWS AND GOSSIP OP THE C1TI
Here is a suggestion for some enterprising
capitalist, capitalists or present owners.
The lots on the east side of Federal street,
Allegheny, between Stockton ayenue and
Park way, are only 60 feet deep, and en
tirely inadequate for business purposes on a
street of such importance. The suggestion
is this: To purchase adjacent property
fronting on Stockton avenue, so as to
lengthen the Federal street lots to about 120
feeL This would afford room for improve
ments in keeping witb the business demands of
the thoroughfare. There are no buildings of
Importance to interfere with the scheme. The
advantages that would accrue from tbls im
provement would far outweigh any cost result
ing from changes necessary to carry It into
effect.
The Trend of Realty.
A prominent business man, who handles con
siderable real estate as a side issue, said yester
day: "I am not a regular dealer in real estate,
but occasionally buy a piece of property when
I think there is a bargain in it. I pay pretty
close attention to the market, and think I un
derstand it as well as the next man. It looks to
me to be in excellent condition not quite so
active as at the same time last year, but it has
a good healthy outlook. Prices havo heen
marked up considerably in' the last three or
four tears, but not more than the demand
justified. The city is increasing in population
and wealth so fast that it is reasonable to
cxnectstill higher priees in the future, espe
cially for business and choice residence site.
Taking everything into consideration work,
wages and cost of living property in and
about Pittsburg is cheap, and it is compari
tively easv for any industrious man to acquire
a home. Our greatest need is small bouses to
accomodate outsiders desiring to locate here:
as this want is being liberally met, i: will in a
few years cease to bo an obstruction to the
material development of the city,"
An Allegheny DeaL

HOME SECURITIES.
Mr. TVcstlnglioose Delays His Return Talk
About the Scrip Dividend The Stock
Somewhat Neglected Philadelphia
Gas Hold Up Under Adversity.
The market for local stocks was quiet and a
trifle weak yesterday. There were no outside
buying orders, and but few of home origin.
Total sales were 521 shares, furnished by Elec
tric. German National Bank. Philadelphia Gas
Luster and Switch and Signal.
There was a very moderate demand for elec
tric and although there were no material
changes in figures, it ruled weak all day, clos
ing a good fraction below the opening bid.
Mr. Westinghousedid not make his appear
ance as expected, and it was stated tbat he
would not be here for four orfivedays. In
terest was dull on the scrip, but no one could
be found who hud received a cheek for his
share. 1 he amount to be disbursed is about
$6,000. There were two reports about the in
terest business one that the books had not
been closed and the time been extended some-ho-v
by somebody for one week; the other
coming apparently from an unauthoritative
source, that checks would be made out to
holders ot second March L That the situation
was unsatisfactory could be seen in the dainti
ness with which the stock was bandied. With
confidence already shaken, it was no wonder
the disappointment had a bearish effect. Noth
ing could be done, however, but to accept tho
situation and wait for Mr. Westinghouso to
show bis hand. The next move will be decisive
one way or another.
Philadelphia Gas beld its own remarkably
well. In the faco of reports of scarcity of the
fuel coming in from all over the city. It was
offered down a trifle at the close. Luster was
steady, but Switch and Signal dropped a big
fraction. . Ceptral Traction dosed up a little.

KBW YORK STOCKS.
Pacific Mall Gets a Lift Owing to the Pass
age of tho Snbsldy Hill The Near
Appioach of the Adjournment
of Congress Has an Effect.
New York. March 2. In the stock market
to-day the passage of tbe postal subsidy bill
gave Pacific Mail a lift and developed marked
aciivity in the stock for a time. While there
was considerable pressure upon Burlington its
price proved stubbornly firm and the loss was
comparatively light. On the street tho bulls
are still making, or trying to make, capital out
of the near approach of 'the adjournment of
Congress, while the hears affect to make light
of tho expectation that the adjournment can
havo any effect upon the course of prices. Tho
bears point to tbe diminishing reserves of the
banks and claim that the March disbursements,
which are principally for pensions, will be a
long time in finding their wav to the bank, aud
predict a hardening money market at
least until after tho April settlements
are out of tho way, tbe bulls, how
ever, have faith tbat the present sur-
?ilns is sufficient to meet all probable demands
or the next mouth, while the speculation be
ing narrow there was no llklibocd of a squeeze
in money rates, especially as the large houses
are well protected by slrae loan. Tho market
opened slightly lower, and notwithstanding the
weakness in Burlington, failed to go lower, but
toward noun developed strength with Pacific
Mai), and the whole list advanced slight frac
tions. In the attcrnocn thorc was some
strength and activity In the new Sugar stock,
and it scored a ne of nearly 2per cent, which
was well held throughout the day. Tho high
prices to which Pacific .Mail was pushed, how
ever, induced realizing ou the advance, and this
encouraged more vigorous efforts on the nart
of the bears, who attacked Louisville and
Nashville with some success, and the improve
ment in Pacific Mail was completely wiped out
before the closo of the marker. This carried
tbe general list down, and everything which
had been firm to strong within narrow limits in
the forenoon was carried down below the
openiug prices. The stocks outside of
the leaders, however, failed to make any
marked movement, though there was consid
erable pressure brought upon St. Paul and tho
other grangers. Burlington continued active,
but did not yield much in the afternoon. Tho
market finally closed quiet and heavy after a
slight rally from the lowest figure. The final
changes show a majority of losses, and Ilurllng
ton aud Louisville are each down 1 per cent,
but Sugar is up 1 and Pacific Mail 1 per cent.
Kail road bonds did not share In tbe activity
of stocks, the total transactions being only
782,000. The Atchison incomes were the feat
ures of the dealings. The bonds mentioned
wore weak, but the other changes were insig
nificant, the general list presenting a steadv
tone throughout tho entire day. Government
bonds have been dull and Bteady.
The J'ott says: Early prices from London bo
fore our opening were lower than our closing,
owing to mure activity in tho money market
there. The proipect continues good for the
February earnings of ihoi Granger roads.
Louisville and Nashville was down 1 this
afternoon, owing to rumors of difficulty in ne
gotiating its verified 4 per cent Dond", of which
$5,000,000 bas'been advertised for a month or so.
Tbe fact is that it is very difficult to negotiate
4 per cent railroads now, because there are so
many good bonds outstanding that pay more,

Country Produce Jobbing Prices.
Monday proved a cold day to trade at com
mission houses. Tbe first business day of the
week is uniformly quiet, but this weekMt has
been more so than usual. The cold snap bas
stiffened price of eggs, and sales are reported
as high as 19c per dozen. A change to milder
weather will very soon bring markets back to
tbe old level. A drop is highly probable before
the week is out. Advices from the West indi
cate a very short supply of creamery butter,
and higher prices are sure to come before tbe
week is out. Chicago markets are already
close to last week's quotations here. A dis
patch from Chicago to one of our leading firms
here reports a wild and advancing butter mar
ket there.

Money Changing.
New Zealand lias set an example which
might advantageously be followed in certain
parts of this country. In the same war as
we have "cathedral cars" it has "traveling
banks." A clerk, representing the bank,
travels up and down a railway line for
the transaction of the ordinary busi
ness of the bank with those who
have not sufficient facilities lor coming
into the city. Laden with a satchel con
taining his supply of cash, and provided
with a teller's usual precautious against
robbery, the clerk makes the carriage his
headquarter., and there receives visits from
customers at the way stations, changing
checks or taking deposits as occasion may
require.
This plan is said to prove profitable to the
banc and a great convenience to the
settlers, who are saved all the trouble of
journeying to town to relieve themselves of
surplus money or to procure change. It is
not difficult, however, to see that the New
Zealanders are not properly educated in tbe
matter of train robbery.
