    THE DEIFT OF TBADE.
The Cereal Boom ia Some Measure a
Speculative Movement.

TV Eh DAY. March St. j
TUo Cereal Hoom.
It will be seen by reference to domestic
market column that cereal markets are in
an excited condition. The prediction made
by leading operators a week or two ago that
corn would go to 75e per bushel has been
more than fulfilled, as prices here have
passed this line. The price of oats has also
gone up until a sale was made to-day of Xo.
2 white at 00c per bushel.
How far the upward movement is specula
tive and how far legitimate will be deter
mined in the next few days. That the stock
of com :ind oats in the country
is unusually light for the time of
the year is fully demonstrated. Latest
Government reports show a greater
shortage than the most bullish estimates that
hail been given out pr'eviou-l. Ihere is little
doubt, howeicr. thattlio bell movement has
been worked by speculators for more than there
U in it, and that a reaction must come.
feaid oue of our most reliable operators in
grain and hav, j esterda) : "I -old No. '2 shell corn
Iroiu store this morning at Toe per bushel, but
could not now lay it down at this price. In mj
judgment the boom In corn and oat. will grow
top heavy in the next day or two. Those who
bu at present prices should sell quick. Specu
lative influences hav: sent markets above the
advance that was juslitied by the short supply
in the couutrj."
The Egg Market.
The opinions of dealers as to the reasons for
. the scarcity and high price of eggs the past
week are somewhat varied. The first week of
March eggs were slow at 1G to lOJJcper dozen in
job lots, and the markets were abundantly sup
plied. The past fen dajs' supply has been far
below demand at 26 to 2Se per dozen, hoaie
aitiilmte the scarcity to the oold snap, which
caused the hen to lose her grip. Others think
the bad condition of country roads has been
Hie main cause "f shortage and high
price. A leading Liberty street commission
merchant had this to sav of the ege boom: "Io
loriuer j ears New York drew heavily on Can
ada for lis supplies. This season the supply
from Canada has been cut oil because of the
5 cent duty placed on eggs, and New York ha
been forced to draw its sunplies from the West
and South. The object of the dutj, namely, to
hctp the markets nt home producers has been
accomplished, but the consumer is made to
pax the difference." Tbo new of dealers gen
erally is that the boom is practically over and
that eggs will drop below 20c before another
week. A few days of mild weather will with
out doubt bring about this result.
Household Expenses.
One week from this time the retail grocer
villbeable to sell 20 pounds of granulated
sugar Inr SI and have a good profit. The
present jobbing price is 6Kc per pound, and on
April 1 the price will be 45c. Let this be put
down to the much abused McKinley tariff bill's
credit. In a general way household expenses
haie been much increased the vust lew months.
0ur breadstuff, fruits and p. aloes are much
knorc expensive than in ordinary seasons. A
.'j ear ago potatoes and apples were little more
I per bairel than they are now per bushel.
I Ilutter, eggs and poultry have been nonsu
it all) high the past few weeks Reef and bacon
fcaTP of late joined in the advance movement.
A decline of 30 per cent in sugar will, in a
measure, offset the nso in other articles which
enter mto household expenses.
With a good fruit seasou before us, as is now
promised, the drop of the sugar tax will fur
jiMi many crumbs of comfort to the house
holder. lIome'Made 3Iolasses.
The maple srun crop was later than usual
coming to the front this season, but since it has
appeared the yield is unusually large. January
proved an unla or able month for the flow of
sap. Later on there was a free flow, and sup
plies are now coming loruard so freely that
prices have betn steadily drifting downward.
Not tor man) seasons have home-made sugar
and mcUsscs becu as low as now. The top of
the market for pure Ohio maple E)rupis9oc
per gallon, which is 25c per gallon below the
average prire. The low price of common sugar
has no doubt had something to do with the ue
cline of the bumc-made article.

CHICAGO Evcrjthing in the specnlative
pits on the Boaid of Trade vent soaring dur
ing the earl) part of the session to-day, but
later the bu)ing furore gave way to one ofyscll
lug, and all of the sharp advances made over
last night's closing figures were lost with some
thing besides, in nio-r cases.
Wheat opened with a boom, with sales all
along the line from Jl 05 to SI 08 for the May
option, against SI 01 J at the close )esterday.
Cable quotation ! iue English market were
contradictor), llullisu news for the lirst half
of the session went for a vcrc great deal, while
au.uhingnf an opposite tendency was immedi
ately lost sight of. 1 he shorts w ere still fielmg
the impetus of the pace with which they weie
hurried along yesterday, and the bulls kept
them ou the run without a breathing spell un
til their own ends had been accomplished. That
was after they had so agitated the shorts that
they bought blindl) and rccklessl), upon which
opportunity tnc hull pilings were dumped.
Price fluctuations could scared) he follow ed in

the more material changes ol the dav. About
12:J0 1". M it became apparent that the hulls
had gotten their satisfaction out of the bulge,

lor a week or more, and the alert scalpers im
mediately climbed into the leading position,
and smashed the tottering fabric nntil 2c was
hammered off its early highest price.
The hulls controlled the corn luarkcr.starting

'Ihere was only li.OOU hocrs at the yards, and
the price was from 25c to 35c bizher than yes
terday morning. That was suflicient io put
wings on thoimccsof hogpioduct. Climb and
shout and clamor as they would, the horls
could not get any. Busmtss was almost impos
sible, with holders afraid to sell lest they might
name the highest price which the shorts could
be scared into paving. and the latter had simply
to bnl and bid, with a dozen darting after every
liltle int which a holder would be occasionally
induced to part with. The scene changed when
tlit sessun was halt over, and the haste to get
rid of the stuff was equally exciting with the
t arly iagerness to bu). The packers had once
more engineered an adiarce from which to
start selling for the second time the enormous
stock ot product they hold. There were wild
leaps in the price, both ou the advance and on
the decline, and much trouble in the execution
of orders. Ma) pork sold early to SIC broke 52
per bairel, and closed 20 cents above the lowest
point and 55 cents lower than it did vesterday.
Lard and ribs were almost as lively as pork,
eai h closing lower, as already stated.

BRUSHT0N TO HAVE A TANNERY.
Denial of a Import That Turtle Creek Bail
. road lias Been Abandoned.
IliPROYEUEJiT IN THE SEVENTH WARD
Sir. J. Vf. Kitker is doing his part
toward supplying the demand for dwellings.
He is nutting up a row of seven on Lyric
street, East End. Although it will be some
time before any of them receive the finishing
touches, ail of them are rented aflording
additional evidence that there is a good
demand for this description of property.
Another Tannery Projected.
This "neck of the woods" is famous for
tanneries, of which there are a large number,
some of them among the most important in
the country, but there seems to be a demand
for another. According to present arrange
ments it will bo located on the low ground at
Urushton, by two Allegheny City men of ex
perience in tiio business. The ground has
been secured and plans tor the buildings are
being prepared. The ertiro plant, accordinc
to estimates, will cost about $25,000, and will
he so constructed as to be easily enlarged to
accommodate increase of trade. The only
tanncry in operation in that district is at Bast
.Liberty, and it is reported burdened with work.
A Fifth Avenue Deal.
It is understood that Mr. George H. Bennett
has purchased the property No. 559 Fifth ave
nue, adjoining the piece recently acquired by
film on the corner or Fifth and Vine, for S5.500.
1 he lot is 20x90, with a two-story brick.build
inr. It is the general opinion that Mr. Bennett
secured a decided bargain.
On the String.
It ts understood that a promising dicker is
going on for the purchase ofjthe Fort Pitt
Glass Works property in the Seventh ward. A
hitch in regard to the price, it is thought, will
be overcome. The lot is 2SSon Washington
street, runninc back 135, with good factory
buildings. The rale and improvement of this
property would be a great benefit, not only to
Washington street, but to that part of the city,
which needs a stimulant, such as this would
furnish, to put it in line with the more progres
sive districts.
Turtle Creek Itallroad.
There seems to be no truth in the report that
the building of the Turtle Creek Valley Rail
road had been abandoned. A gentleman con
nected with tne project said yesterday: "The
road will bo put through. Two much money
has been done on It to even think of giving it
up. We are struggling with some difficulties.
but they will be overcome. The road is needed
both as a carrier and to open up a large area of
backward territory. Its best friends arc tbo
farmers. Ihey realize bow importaut it will be
to them in opening up a market for their pro
duce. Wo will soon be in shape to push opera
tions." Cnslness News and Gossip.
Several real estate agents will change quar
ters betueen now and April!. Some have al
ready moved.
T. W. Wright will soon begin the erection of
buildings at New Brighton, Beaver County, lor
the manufacture of shovels. He has purchased
six acres of ground for the plan.
George Evans, of Greenshurg. was in the
city yesterday. He said: "Forty years ago or
more I worked at bouse building in Pittsburg.
Many of the structures in the vicinity of Penn
and Seventh are resting on piles, a bed of sand
10 to 20 feet thick underlying the surface.
This is a fact not generally Known."
Twelve of 27 mortgage for record yester

Milton I. Baird. of Black & Baird, formed a

A Drop In Philadelphia Gas the Feature of
the Day Electric Braces Up Westing-
lionso Complications Coming to a
Head Itowand's Resignation.
The stock market yesterday was tho most
interesting tor some time, both in point of busi
ness and the trend of values. Sales were 715
shares, furnished by Philadelphia Gas. Switch
and Signal. Central Traction and. Electric
Orders gave out or were anent the market at
the last oall and nothing was done
Philadelphia Gas opened with a sale at 11
and weakened gradually until it went at 10 at
the second call. It closed at 'this figure. Tho
drop was a surprise to some, who drew bad
omens from it. Others said it had no signifi
cance, and was caused by a few selling orders
coming on the market, which is so sensitive as
to be easily moved.
The fcrst sale of Electric was at 11. It ad
vanced to ViV and closed at 12. It was higher
at Boston, which sent a few buying orders here
in the afternoon, but the advance prevented,
them from being filled. Luster was a trifle
weaker and Switch and Signal a fraction
stronger. Central Traction closed hotter than
the opening, but tho rest of this group were
unchanged.
Complications of the Westinghonso proper
ties were the principal topics discussed by
brokers. It was again staled that things wero
far from harmonious in the Switch and Signal
dnectory, and the advertised sale of 1,000
shares of the stock "on account of whom it
may concern" next Monday, was pointed to as
giving color to the story; hut as efforts are
making to improve the finances and satisfy
creditors, it is generally believed a receivership
will be avoided.
Affairs of the electric comptny, according to
good authority, will be brought to a head
about April 1. Opinion is pretty evenly
divided as to the outcome, but some of the best
posted brokers think Mr. tVestinghouse will
come out on top.
Mr. Howand is not in a position to explain
the official change in the East End Electric
Light Companv on account of sickness, but a
close friend of his is authority for tlio state
ment that Mr. Rowand determined to resign
tho Presidency last summer, when fie was
prostrated by tvphold fever. At the time of
the deal with the Wilkinsburg Electric Light
Company, about three months ago all the de
tails for his resignation were arranged, and
have since been carried out. Whether he will
resume tbo Presidency or not will depend upon
his health, but the probability is that bis re
tirement is permanent.

NEW YORK STOCKS.
Bull Speculation In Cereals and a Small
Dank Suspension Operate Against
the Share Market Movement
In Only a Few Stocks.
New York, March 24. It is now be
coming a recognized fact that the
rampant bull spccnlation in cereals is
acting as a repressing influence upon
tho market for securities, though the hope is
indulged in that the profits made in those deals
will find their way to Wall street after the cul
mination of the speculation. The suspension
of a small bank here acted as an additional re
pressing factor in the stock market this morn
ing, and even the few stocks which have pre
served all along the semblance of activity sub
sided into the most aggravating dullness.
Tnc prevailing tone of the market was heavy,
as indicated bv the slight change in quotations
during the greater portion of the day. Burling
ton and Ontario and Western were the only
stocks in the list showing any animation or ma
terial fluctuation in the earlv dealings, but St.
Paul. Burlington anu Rock Island, which were
in a measure affected by the passage of the
maximum lreight hill in Nebraska, afterward
took the lead in point of activity, while Chi
cago Gas, lutein the day, moved up near) 1
per cent on larger transactions, Louisville, St,
Louis and Texas was sold at 5 against 15
the other day. but afterward recovered
to 14. Brunswick also advanced from 12 to 14
on comparatively light trading. Theso move
ments comprise all there was of tho market,
and no interest in tho course of prices was ap
parent anywhere The closing was dull and
steady, with prices in all bnt a few cases slicht
fractions below those of last evening.
Railroad bonds were not so dull as stocks,
but the stagnation was almost on a parity, and
while a few issues show material changes from
last sales, the majority of the active issues are
unchanged. The sales were only S700.00U with
out special activity in any issue. The changes
of note show a majority of li ses. ind Hanni

Petitioning for tho Custody of a Minor
Child Sued for Having a Piece of Ills
Own Itullding Cut Off Briefs Prom the
Courts.
A petition was presented before Judge
Hawkins, of the Orphans' Court, yesterday,
by John Murphy, asking for the custody of
a minor child named Charles McCarthy,
a son of Maria McCarthy, alias
Daly. The father of the child died in
1881, and the boy was t.iken care of at the
City Farm.
Subsequently he was removed to St.
Paul's Orphan Asylum, and in July, 1889,
the petitioner secured charge of him. On last
Sunday his mother went to Murphy's house
and took the boy away, refusing to let Murphy
have him any longer. He alleges she is not a
fit person to have him, having been in the
workhouse on a six months' sentence.
An order was made returning tho boy to
Murpby until April 11, when tho case will be
heard. Tho child is 11 years old.

Supply of eggs has reached demand and a
check has come to the upward movement.
Large quantities have been coming from the
South this week, and are selling at 25c per
dozen. Nearby stock is bringing a shade bet
ter prices. It is evident that the boom in hen
fruit is on the wane, and though prices may
hold up nntil Uaster by reason of large con
sumption, a sharp decline may be looked for
nextneek. Good potatoes are good stock at
quotations. Some dealers predict that pota
toes will go to 81 50 per bushel in the next tew
days. tSupply or maple syrup Is in excess of
demand and markets are weak. The Elgin

MONOTONY AT WILDWOOD.
A PBEDICTIOH OF THE DISPATCH VEBI
FTED BY THE FACTS.
Producers Stirred Up by the Rumored Great
Buaalan Gualier-Blg Oil Deals at Batler
Petrolenm Found Near Somerset Noth
ing New at Zellenople.
FrECIAI. TILIOBXM TO TU DISPATrR.t
Wildwood, March 24. The oil field to
day presents the same monotonous aspect
that has characterized the situation for the
past week. Nothing new has taken place at
Wildwood, and the prediction of THE DIS
PATCH is being verified by results. Bunga
No. 1 has, like "Grandfather's Clock,"
"stopped short, never to go again," of its
own volition, and is being tubed. The
Kreitzer well is holding up well, with no
change from previous reports. Kress No.13 is
making 16 inches an hour, and No. 7 Kress has
been shot and is making 75 barrels an hour.
The order of thing" on the southwest line now
seems to be glycerine. Tie Beers &. Co. well
is through the sand, and is at best a small pro
ducer. On the northeast end of the line some excite
ment has been raised bythe increase of pro
duction of the Smith Farm Oil Company's
Nosl 8 and 9. No. 9 has been torpedoed, and
Mr. Latshaw. one ot the owners, reports the
well didng 75 barrels an bonr.
Wbltesell No. II came in this morning and
started off at the rate of 80 barrels an hour. It
was making about 60 barrels an hour in the
evening.
An Impromptu Meeting.
An Impromptu meeting was held to-day in
the office of a prominent producer. The
momentous question that called them together
wa3 the 400,000-barrel gusher In Rnssia. Theo
dore Barnsdoll by common consent, was made
President, Fred Hayes, of Warren, was elected
Secretary, and Mr. Sill, also of Warren, was
chosen Vice President.
Mr. Barnsdoll, In Henry Clay style, called
the attention of those present to the fact that
a small well had been struck in Russia, and
that the trade nn this side of the brink shonld
be fully informed of the true status of the well.
Mr. Hayes, In his nnlque style, fully coincided
with the President's views, and suggested that
a fund he raised to send Bob Stafford over to
agitate the well and see what it would do.
Important Oil Deals at Batler.
Butler To day C. D. Angell consummated
the sale of two oil properties in the 100-foot
field. The owners were Golden, McClurg and
Walker & Co.; the purchasers of both. J. W.
Breed, pf Cincinnati, and R. P. Shearman, of
Jamestown, N. Y. The pronerty known as the
Graham heirs' consi"ts of 15 acres with five
wells, producin-r 250 birrels per day. The con
sideration was 821,000.
Ihe Nesbit iae comprises 11 acres with
three welli yielding five barrel" ycr dav. and
one drilling well; consideration, 813.000. These
properties have been producing about one year,
and haTe paid several hundred per cent on the
investment.
OH Is Found Near Somerset.
Somerset At Elk Lick, this county, a test
well has been going down and to-day it is stated
that oil began flowing from tho well in small
quantities. The well is now at a depth of 1,010
feet, and tbo owners intend drilling in at once.
It is tl ought tho well is not deep enough to
reach the real stratum, but the smell of oil has
set the people wild.
Nothing New at Zellenople.
Zelienople There is nothing of import
ance in this field. The Captain Marsh No. 2 is
about 30 feet in the sand and showing very
fair. Thompson, nn the Mullcr, expects to
reach the pay the last of tho week. Levine'3
No. 1, on the Steinbach southwest, and Fred
crick & McAully. 0:1 the northwest, are at the
Interesting point.

SPRING SUGGESTIONS.
Avoid draughts and sudden changes of tem
perature. Do not discard your warm winter clothing too
soon. It is better to suffer a little inconveni
ence than to take cold.
Remember that one is especially liable to con
tract a bad cold or chill at this season of the
year.
A cough or cold contracted between tbe sea
sons is tbe most annoying kind, and may last
tbrnngb tbe summer.
If you feel a cough or a cold coming on take
adrinkof pure whlskeyat once It will keep
the blood in circulation and is the best pre
ventive against the diseases of the season.
Remember that only pure whiskey should he
taken. Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey has the
strongest recommendations from the leading
scientists and medical men. It is the only
standard medicinal whiskey. Take no o'her
from your druggist or grocer. w
Forty-five highest awards
