OFFICE OF riTTSBUKO DISPATCH,
WlDSESDAT, March i.
There were 85 loads of cattle on the market
at East Liberty yards on Monday morning
and about 5 loads have been received since
Monday. Last week only 70 loads were on
sale and the week before 95 loads. Quality
of this week's offerings was generally low.
There were few cood or prime Dceres offered
in proportion to the whole. Chicago was the
main source of supply, there being aDout S8
loads from that point. The balance were
mainly from Ohio and Indiana. On common
and medium grades markets opened strong 10
to 15c lower on Monday than the
previous week, and a goodly number
tailed to find purchasers at the decline.
Folly a dozen loads were shipped on in first
bands, and tnree or four loads were in yards
unsold this morning. Chicago shippers, who
look upon this market as good dumping ground
for low graae cattle, bare received some ex
pensive lessons this week. The shipper who
ciunes out whole on inferior stock may thank
his stars. Probabilities are that be has been a
loser. The run of prime light butcber beeves
this week was light, and markets were steady
at last week's prices. A few prime 1,500-ft cat
tle v ere on sale, but the higuest price offered
was oic Tins offer not being satisfactory, the
holder concluded to try his fortunes in Eastern
markets.
There was a good inquiry forstock cattle, but
bujers of fat cattle wero present in small num
bers. One load ot good stockers weighing
about BOO 2s was sold at S3 70. which was the
highest price realized for this grade. Fresh
cows wero plenty, and markets ranged from
20 to 40 per head. The range for veal calves
wasocto6cper ft. With the. exception ot
light, tidy butcher beeves, weighing from 1.100
to 1,200 ft?, markets were dull and slow at loner
prices than ruled last week. If anything
has been demonstrated the past few
weeks it has been that Pittsburg is a
very poor market for inferior grades
of cattle. The sooner the snipper learns
this tbe better for him and all con
cerned. Sbecp and lambs The total run for
the week bas been 15 carloads, and in the run
tbe proportion ot choice stock has been small
as usual. Good sheep were steady at last
week's prices, but lambs were weak and a shade
lower. The top of tbe market for sheep was
So Go. this being paid for a carload of choice
irnm the neighborhood of Columbus, O. The
top price of Iambi n as S6 00, this price being
paid lor a few bunches of lancy stock. Hogs
Receipts for tbe neck have been between 43
and 50 carloads against little more than half
this number last week. There were only I
loads on sale this morning, and top price was 4c
per ft Top price at Chicago at tbe same time
was 1 3 55, or 5 to 10c lower than the day before.

3IABKETS BY WIRE.
A Lively Day In the Chicago Grain lMts A
Stampede of Shorts While Values
Soar Skyward Provisions
Join the Procession.
CHICAGO More than tho usual amonntof
excitement prevailed In all the speculative
markets this morning. Wheat attracted at
tention early more from what It did tiot do.
Tnere was no fault to be found on this score
later in the da . With the corn and oats mar
kets booming to the highest prices of these
crops it was thoucht that early wheat should
certainly have shown a marked advance. All
who wanted tbe grain, however. seemed for
time to have no trnnble in getting it from those
who "already had it. The narrowness of the
early market was all tho more surprising be
cause ot tbe sensationally large de
crease In l available supplies of wheat
last week, as reported tins rooming by
JiraditreeCs. sliowintr them to have decreased
L772.000 bushels, 1,145,000 bnshels ot which de
crease was at points on the Atlantic slope.
r"or about 20 minutes tbe crowd would not
believe in those fignres, they appeared so
utterly out ot line with the official visible snp
ply. but when their correctness was substanti
ated there was an excited, scramble to
buy. Hutchinson, King,Harlow and Schwarti
Dupeeledthe early baying, but Hutchinson
was apparently peddling tbe grain out agatn
on tbe little bulges. 11 ean while corn valnes
kept creeping up, ana they ultimately got so
high that shorts In wheat could stand the
strain no longer. They stampeded in a body,
and values went soaring. May wheat( which
had started at 97c and had ranged at SQ
97callthe mornins, got up to 97c about
noun. Tbit was tho price at which niauy of the
"calls" sold last night. It had sold so sear
this price so many times before, that holders of
these privileges had sold against tbem. As
soon as the market overcame this barrier it
went upward with a rush. By 120 May was
up to L but it broke back to IWJJc in short
order. Many holders ot grain had plenty to
sell at the top price, and by tbls time most of
the aborts were in out of the dampness.
Corn acted suspiciously strong from tho
start. There was no particular reason that was
apparent on tbe surface for the strength be
yond the Scarcity of contract corn in sight, but
people just seemed to want it. Most of these
were people who had sold it short. They found
supplies very scarce. Holders of tho grain
were waiting for large fractional bulges. When
these came to bny the grain back, which they
ultimately did, they found tbe market rising
very fast. M av coi n started at 56Kc. sold for a
moment at 56c, then crept np to o6a After
reacting to 5bc, it again started upward, and
after it once passed 58c the shorts were stam
peded, and it went up to 5Sc in very short
order.
Oats were simply a repetition of corn. There
was a good general demand, followed by a
stampede of shorts. May started at 4Sc and
ultimately reached 50c.
Tbe provision market was apparently willing
to settle back a little If let alone, bnt could not
under the surrounding influence of the grain
pits. May started about 2c easier than yes
terday's closing figures, and the advices from
the vards of 5.000 more hoes than Cad been
looked for was tbe Cause ol the decline. Later
there was an amended report making hog re
ceipts 8.000 more than at first advised, and this
caused continued depression.
Speculators from tlie grain pits filed in among
tbe provision brokers when, tbe former articles
began to soar, and prices of hog products wore
lifted bodily almost in spite of themselves.
Shorts were the chief buyers. May pork de
clinea from S9 85 at the start to S9 80, and ad
vanced to S10 05. Lard was 5c lower at the
start, but advanced ljfc over the opening price
and closed nitbanet gain of 2&u. Ihonet
gain in ribs since yesterday Is 5c

1 Few of the Interesting Features of Car

STOCE YARDS AGITATION SETTLED
A New York man was in the city yester
day trying to rent a large business house,
but failed. This led him to say: "I am sur
prised at the smallness of the rooms in which
business ii transacted in Pittsburg. The
most oi them are mere boxes compared with
those in other cities. I notice there is plenty
of room here in which to expand and build.
The trouble seems to be that the lots were
laid out originally too small. They met the de
mands of that time, no doubt, but allowed noth
ing for growtb. Tho consequence is that at
tempts to carry on bnslness now in the same
space as 40 years ago are failures. It can't be
done."
There is much truth In this. Those who
bnild should not content themselves with one
small lot, 17 or IS feet front but should bny at
least three and pnt one large or two medium
sized buildings thereon. This wonld make the
owners more money, and at tbe same time
bring in new blood and capital. There wonld
be no delay in renting, such buildings being in
constant demand. The sooner Pittsburg
owners look at this matter in tbls light the
better it will be for them aud tho city.
e
A Great Thoroughfare.
Carson street, tbe principal thoroughfare on
tbe Soutbstde, possesses some interesting feat
ures. It is a hire of business. For two or
three miles it presents' an almost unbroken ar
ray of stores and shops, liberally supplied with
everything necessary to meet the wants of tbe
community. There are few large concerns, as
tbo business is almost exclusively of a retail
character. Millmen are the principal custom
ers, and they want the best. Many of these
stores are as handsomely fitted up as any to be
found on this side of tho river, while the goods
displayed are abundant and attractive. A trip
from the Smithfield street bridge to xhirteentn
street yesterday disclosed only two bouses to
let. A few improvements were seen, but noth
ing important. Most of the building is in the
vlcmitv of the railroad bridge and on the hill
tops. Tbe Introduction of rapid transit will in
crease tbe Importance of Carson street by
bringing all parts of it into closer relationship
with the business and residence centers.
Settled for Good.
It seems to be settled that the East Liberty
stockyards are not to be removed to Walls or
anywhere else just now. Improvements about
to be made in the way of buildings and exten
sions show that they are to remain at Torrens.
It is well that this matter bas been brought to
a head. Its periodical agitation from time
immemorial bas kept property owners and in
vestors in an unpleasant frame nt mind. They
wonld neither sell nor buy with the doubt
hanging over tbem. But now that they know
there will be no change tbey will be free to act.
The removal of the yards would open the way
to many valuable Improvements which are now
impracticable. Tbere will be considerable
building out there tbls season, but the bouses
will be small.
a
Lower Allegheny.
Tbere is a good movement in realty in the
lower wards of Allegheny City, several sales
having been closed within the last few days.
Among these were three handsome dwellings
on Allegheny and Kidge avenue". As but few
of tbe transactions are permitted to reach the
surface, it is impossible to make an estimate of
tbe business done, but it is considerable
equal, perhaps, to that of an equal area in the
busiest part of the East End. Owners are not
anxious to sell. Tbey aro holding back tor the
opening of California avenue, which they think
will stiffen values and stimulate Improvement
certainly a reasonable conclusion.
Business News and Gossip.

NEW YORK STOCKS.
The Long-Wlshed-For Adjournment of Con
gress Falls to Strengthen a Weak
Market A Bally at Midday
Succeeded by a Decline.
New York, March 4. The final adjourn
ment of Congress brought with it no change in
tbe character of the stock market, aud Instead
of tho broadening and widening expected tbere
was rather a return to the narrowness and stag
nation of tbe past week, even tbe few stocks
which have given tone to the dealings for the
last three days retiring into oblivion with the
general list
Tbe opening of the market this morning was
made with some show of animation, but it was
all in Burlington, Northern Pacific preferred
aud Sugar, while prices were lower all along
tbe line, and stagnation reigned in tbe whole
list, with tbe exception of the threo leading
stocks. Tbo strength in Sugar changed the
current of prices upward, however, and a gain
of m per cent in Sugar and fractions lu the
otner stocks marked the early trading.
Tbe upward movement however, was short
lived, and a slow and steady drooping marked
the dealings throughout the remainder of the
day, which became more pronounced during
tbe afternoon. The Grangers led off. followed
by others, and in tbe afternoon, when the bears
found that there was going to be no effort to
advance prices, notwithstanding the shouts
with which tbe announcement of the final ad
journment ot Congress evoked, concerted au
attack upon the list aU along the line, though
Cleveland, Cincinnati. Chicago and St Louis,
Bock Island, Pacific Mail, Northern Pacific,
tbe Coalers and Lake Shore were most promi
nent in the decline of tbe last honr. The de
cline was sharp and no sign of a rally was seen.
The market closed weak at tbe lowest prices of
the day. The industrials were Better supported
than anything on tbe regular list, but all closed
loer.

tion of lower figures, and C C, C. A St L. is

distributed business of only 8733,000 showed no
marked tendency in either direction until late
in the day, when prices ran off slightly in sym
pathy with the weakness in shares. Louisville.
New Albany aud Chicago cousoli, however, was
the only issue which displayed anv real weak
