before. One-half of this week's offerings
were from Chicago. The proportion of good
beeves on sale was small, as it has been for
several weeks past. Strictly prime cattle of
heavy weight were not to be had. The nich
es! price obtained was 6s per B for a load of
1.430-rb cattle from Indiana. A small lot
was sold at SJ4c, hut general range for what

MARKETS BY WIRE.
Wheat Unsettled by Conflicting Influences,
but Finishes Ith a Slight Gain Fine
Prospects for the Kext Crop Corn
and Provisions 'Weaker.
CHICAGO The bulls In w heat had twostrong
opposing influences to contend against at the
opening to-day. The quantity of wheat on
ocean passage was 1,520,000 bushels more than
at the corresponding time a week ago, and the
weather hero was seasonable and dry. On the
other baud the strength of tho foreign markets,
as described in the early dispatches, continues
unabated; the stocks of wheat at Liverpo-d
w ere about 700,000 bushels less than on March 1,
and the local receipts amounted to onlj 16 car
loads. The starting price for May was SI 04 Some
sales wore made immediately thereafter at
SI 0 and a reaction to 1 05 took place before
the price commenced tn yield Ihe decline
was very graduil and hotly contested until
sellers became very numerous at i 04, from
which latter point to tlKJi tho downward
pace was considerably accelerated. The fine
prospect for the next crop was tho most power-
iui argument 01 the Dears, and ice country aa
viccs all upheld that view of the outlook. The
tone of the closing cables being very strong
and considerable cash business bavinc been
worked, many of tbe early short sellers became
buyers and Tory many of the bulls were again
enconraged to replace their holdings, but tho
bear pre-sure in tho end was too severe, and
after a recovery of May wheat to 1 04 it de
clined acain to'll 04. and was selling at 1 Wn
as the session came to a close.
Ihe corn deal was lacking in interest, and
was allowed to drift in the direction of the pre
ponderance of outside orders. A reduction of
the visible supply lat week amounting to 458,
000 bushels was reported by BradstreeCs and
caused a temporary buying movement among
the local shorts. The opening price Mas about
54c under yesterdays closing prices. Alter
lianginc around lor a brief time at C7?c for
Ma It gradually sold down to 67Jc, recovered
to 673ic and closed at 67Jfc, or c lower than
yesterday.
There was a fair trade in otts early, but no
much doing during the latter part of the ses
sion Shorts were the principal buyers, while
Fowler sold a Email line of Ma v.
There was an immediate decline of 7)c to 10c
in the price of May pork when the market
opened and it made a further break of 17Kc.
but in the end recovered the entire loss and
closed unchanged from the previous daj's final
quotations. Lard and ribs acted in unison with
pork, but the fluctuations in lard were less vio
lent and the feeling considerably less bcarisQ
than in ribs and pork. Tbe price ot hogs was
reported lower, but the receipts were under
3 esterday's estimates.
The leadtnc futures rangea as ioiiows, as cor
rected by John M, Oakley t Co., 45 Sixth street,

FBATUKES OP LOCAL SPECULATION
Sales during the past few days in several
of the East End wards show that land
values are as firm as ever. There has been
no shrinkage, nor is there likely to- be.
Even side street property is holding its own,
and in some cases a little more. Owners by
holding out for top prices demonstrate their
faith in the future. Some buyers are stand
ing nnt for concessions, making deals hard
to close, but so far they have met with noth
ing but disappointment. Real estate agents
would be jjlad if there was more of a dispo
sition to gh e and take, but they find it impossi
ble to convince owners that tbejeare asking too
much. Whethor. under these circumstances,
it Is wisdom to wait must be determined by
every buyer for himself.
On a Sound Balls.
Practically all the business and dwelling
houses in Pittsburg are occupied. Those that
are empty are objectionable to tenants in one
or several particulars. They may bo out of
repair, or located in a bad neighborhood, or
held at an exorbitant rental. Ihey could be
filled at once If conditions were right. There
is use for every house in the city. Keeping
this fact In view it is foolish to talk discourag
ingly of the present or take a dreary view of
the future. Existing difficulties are temporary.
There is no deep-seated trouble. The demand
for houses and their scarcity show a steady
influx of population. People are being at
tracted hither by the many opportunities which
the city offers nf bettering their condition, by
the magnitude of its industries and by its
natural resources, still largely undeveloped.
Most other cities are oversold and overbuilt.
There are more houses than people. Tlie re
verse of this holds good here. This is sufficient
not only to keep things moving under tem
porary adversity, but to continue, if not im
prove upon, the rate of expansion which has
been the wonder of the country during tbe last
few years.

A Strong Tone But Light Trading A
Slight Bnlce in the Westlnghouse
Oronp Better Demand for the
Tractions Nevrs and
Gossip.
Stock trading was again light yesterday.
Nothing was done at the first call. At tbe
second 100 shares of Electric changed hands at
H and at the third 12,000 Panhandle 7s
brought 11434.
There as a fair sprinklingof bidsand offers,
but they were too far apart to be reconciled,
especially when the disposition was wanting.
The firmness of holders was indicative of a
strong nndertone. Tbe war cloud was scarcely
referred to, but those who expressed an opin
ion thought a brush with Italy would bo a gooi
thing for business.
The ontire Westlnghouse group was stronger.
Philadelphia Gas and Electric closing good
fractions better than the opening, '1 he pros
perous condition of tho Airbrake Company,
Lim.. as reported from London was good news,
and had a stimulating effect upon the marker.
The Tractions maintained their customary
position, but bidding was a little better, show

concessions. Tho stock is in strong hand,
however, and there is no likelihood of any of it
going at a sacrifice. Bids and offers were:

INEW YORK STOCKS.
The Italian Complication lias but a Tem
porary Effect on Shares Final Changes
Slight and Irregular Few Feat
ures Bonds Again Dull.
New York, April 1. The only new influence
in affairs likely to affect the stock market to
day was the Italian complication, but the effect
which this had upon the prices of stocks
reached no farther than tbe opening. The
bears endeavored to make some capital out of
tbe affair, and sold and offered stocks down at
tbe beginning of business. They were en
couraged in this course by the nneasy advices
from London, but the subsequent course of tbe
market gives rise to the suspicion that the
foreign selling had its inception on this side of
tbe ocean.
The domestic situation remains the same and
tbe day was almost entirely barren of news of
a character to have any influence upon tbe
market. Tbe attack at the opening established
a slightly lower range of values, and while
lack of offerings outside the manipulators soon
caused a cessation of tbe pressure to sell, there
was no material demand for stocks, and after a
short rally they subsided into tbe intense dull
ness from which tbc did not recover during
the entire session. The morning hours saw a
drooping tendency, but prices never reached
those of the opening, and later in tho day a
firmer tone prevailed, with marked strength in
EvansvilleandTerre Haute, which rose to 125
from 121, and in Sngar, which advanced on the
general belief that an arrangement had been
made by the trust with both the independent
refiners and with Spreckels. On the other
band, the weak point was Manhattan, which
sold down from last night's figure over one per
cent. Louisville was sold apparently by tne
foreigners, and with the Grangers and Sugar,
maintained all tho animation there was in the
day's dealings.
lbs close was very dull but firm at insignifi
cant changes from last night's prices, and gen
erally small fractions better tban tbe opening.
The advance in Sugar reached 1 per cent,
and tho loss in Manhattan 1, the otners being
irregular but small.
Railroad bonds lost the comparative activity
of last few days, and the sales for all issues for
tbe day were only $585,000. while there was no
apparent tendency of prices in either direction,
though the important chauges show a majority
of advances. Of these, Milwaukee, Lake
Shore and Western Michigan division firsts
rose 2 to 110, while no marked decline was to
be noted.

slocks on the Mew ork Stock Exchange yester

A BIch, but Temporary, Lead Struck in Old
Crafton Territory TVlldwood Has a Fair
New Well llutlerand Armstrong County
Production Figures.
The same monotony that has marked the
progress of events in the past 60 or 90 days
in the field situation was not changed dar
ing the past 24 hours. At Chartiers, or
rather Crafton, Patterson, Jennings & Co.
were fortunate iu striking a rich bed in old
territory, and the well started off at a 600
harrel gait. Its collapse will soon follow.as
the history of this effervescent pool could
nnt consistently convey any other conclusion.
No particular importance whatever Is attached
to the new find, and in a few days matters here

McCurdy presents nothing out of tbe ordi
nary and no particular chance Is to De noted

at this writing, deep enough to fully demon
strate its character.
A New TVildcat Well.
Yesterday Thomas O'Brien, William ICennev
dy, Edgar O'Brien and Elmer Mechlin passed
through the city en route to Tullahama, Tenn.,
to drill a wildcat well. Tbe ventnre Is in Coffee
county, and the projectors of tbe new enter
prise are from Butler. Ex Sheriff Reddlck is
President of the company, while the other
members of the firm are P. Golden, Sam Craw
ford and J. B. McClung. This company has se
cured 50,000 acres of leases and owns in fee
over COO acres. If they fail to find oil or gas
they will try again.

caused by the new operations mi Muddy creeic.
which, however, as yet nave not presented an)
thing sensational. At Petersville a little ter-
rltory has been found, or at least extended.
and some wells wiU go down as soon as the now
execrable roads a 1 line a better condition.
. A New Well at ITllawood.
Wildwood As has been presented to the
readers of The Dispatch for some time,
Wildwood is no longer the birthplace of sur
prises. The same uneventful character repre
sents affairs here that have prevailed lor some
time. There was however, a slight innovation
yesterday on the Wallace heirs' No. 4, owned
by Finegan fc Downing, which is reported to
night as three bits in the sand and cood for 160
barrels a day. Greenlee & Form's No. 1 Alston
is doing 300 a day. The Forest Oil Company
and Griffith's Ringbeiser No. 7 is doing 20 bar
rels a day. McDevltt's No. 1 Guyton Is dolnr
35 barrels a day, and No. 2 Guyton is good for 23
barrels a day.
Little Doing at JIars Station.
Map.s Station There is but little of im
portance in this section to report, and, in fact,
but very little going on. The Forest Oil Com
nany is drilling a well on tbe Kennedy farm,
which is down 1.310 feet.

Country Produce Jobbing Prices.
Eastern egg markets are strong and Western
weak. At New York there is a 21c market,
and in St, Louis He per dozen is the price.
Here tbe stock is light, and there have been
sales at 18c within a day or two. There were
500 cases of Southern eggs shipped from hero
to New York to-day on the news of strong
markets there. The future of prices will hinge
on the weather. With a few warm, sunshiny
days eggs will drop. Elgin creamery butter is
off 3c per pound at source of supply, and mar
kets here weak accordingly, notwithstanding
the fact that stocks are very licht here and
everj where in the country. On Friday there
will be a SOo market here.

Protect Your Health.
Cold and moisture combined have a torporls
ing effect upon tbe bodily organs, and the di
gestive and secretivo processes are' apt to be
more tardily performed in winter tban in the
fall. Tho same is true, also, of the excretory
functions. The bowels are often sluggi.b, and
tbe pores of the skin throw off but little waste
matter at this season. The system, therefore,
requires opening up a little, and also purifying
and regulating;, and the safesr, surest and most
thorough tonic and alterative that can be used
for tbese purposes Is Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. Persons who wish to escape the
rheumatic twinges, the dyspeptic agonies the
painful disturbances of the bowels, the billons
attacks and the nervous visitations so common
at this time ot the year, will do well to reinforce
their systems with thU renowned vi-getabte
stomachic and invigorant. It improves tbe ap
petite, strengthens the stomach, cheers the
spirits and renovates the whole physique.
Springtime
Brings with it a desire to renovate your
house. We are showing handsome new de
