LARGE SALES OP BESSEMER. Hopeful Signs Which Indicate That July's Shutdown Will Be Light THE ACTUAL TRANSACTIONS RECORDED. Condition of the Marlcts at All Centers. the Leading; Iron , Office of rrrranuRcs Disr.vrcH, Friday, June 5. J Raw Ijtozi asd Steel Trade sinco our last was reasonably active. The volumo of bust nes shows up well and will compare favor ably witli lormer seasons. Prices for cer tain descriptions are weaker, but for others bare been fairly maintained, Pittsburg furnaces have only a limited amount of iron for sale: others refine to accept orders, pre lerring to deliver blocks previously sold. The sales of shenango and Mahoning Valley iron lor some weeks past have been liberal, including many extending for several months, and 10,000 tons Bessemer extending all 1531. Trices in the valleys have been well maintained, being fully up with Pittsbnrg lor Bessemer, and gray forgo. We learn, from, an authority that can be relied on, that a number of furnaces will be started during the next ten days. What effect this will have on the market value of iron remains to bo seen. It may bo that the increased consumption will keep pace with the increased production. Thore is a decree of steadiness, however, which is' certainly encouraging, when retake in tho situation at other points together with the financial depression. A Miiluinmer Room May Come. As a general thing, June is not a very ac tive month, the first of July being the time set to cloe for stock-taking and repairs and necessary arrangements for the balance of the year. On account of so many furnaces closing down for want of coke early in tho season some are now making ready for re sumption, and will, no doubt, continue in operation as long as prices will justify. In that event July will witness only a partial closing this year. All accounts agree that, stocks ot leading descriptions of iron being limited, the prospect for lower values is not very favorable; besides, prices are as low as Kin reasonably be expected. A leading dealer lias this to say: "Local mills ha o" increased the amount of orders on their books, andat the extreme low prices recently ruling nave tne oner ol still larger amounts. But it is felt that, having quite enough to carry them through the present mouth, it is just as well to wait develop ments, especially as there is no margin lor profit at prices offered. The collapse of the coke strike is regarded by many as inimical to higher price lor iron.' Consumers claimn reduction in coke and ores, and although there is nothing definite so lar the chances seem to be in their favor. Iron ore continues to be sold at last week's guotations, but several furnaces are still olding oil' and only buying what is neces sary tor immediate use, 'From this it would seem the expect low er prices to prevail.

ISriXIAL TELERKAM TO THE DISPATCH. Cixtixxati, Juno 5. Rogers, Brown & Co. pay: There is no doubt of the prevalent feel ing among consumers that the end of the coke strike means a largo addition to out put, and that this will prevent an advance if not cause actual lower prices. This keeps back the large buying movement that might naturally be expected to follow a longperiod of light purchases. But there are some who remember many striking proofs in the iron trado that It is the reverso of what is ex pected that happens. It is a fact that ad vancing markets often accompany rapid in crease of production and growing reserve stocks, while decliningstooksandproduction below consumption will not prevent steady decline in prices. Those who govern their course by the logic of statistics, therefore, very often get left. There has been a fair run of orders during the week, some of them for extended de liveries. Contracts running to the end of the year aro usually maae at about 25 cents per ton above prices'for immediate or early delivery. The Mahoning furnaces ere not yet and will not be for some time In positloii to get the benefit of new ore prices, as tho docks are loaded with ores bought last year and all paid for. These must be worked up first. The expected con cessions "in coke have not materialized, though rumors aro heard of contracts at $1 65. The railroads also are slow to give tho relict usked Tor by the association. Only a few furnaces have yet blown in. A recent trip through tho South shows unusual stocks at nil the leading furnaces.

The Close Money Market Is Having Its Effect on Buyers at St. Louis. TSPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH. St. Louis, June 5. Rogers, Brown nnd Meachcmsay: The iron market has been rather quiet during tho past week. The Birmingham coko furnaces are all pretty well sold ahead and haven't any large stocks on band. They claim that the consumption at present Is larger than the production and they look for! higher prices soon. Under ordinary circumstances wo would evidently see higher prices than at present, but on ac count of tho close money market buyers hesitate to supply themselves further than for immediate or early delivery.

A Heavy Demand at Birmingham, but Prices Are Billing Very Low. r6PECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISrATCH. Bikmikgham, Ala., June 5. There has been practically no change In tho iron market in this district for more than a month. Pro duction continues heavy, tho demand un fatisfactory and prices f. o. b. at the furnace as follows: Xo. 1 foundry, $12: Xo. 2 foundry, $11; Xo. 3 foundry, $10 2510 50; gray forge. $9 7510. This is rather below any previous quota tions, though sales have all along been made at shades under the market by furnaces whose stocks showed an undue tendency to pile up. Brokers, however, arejust now in a more hopeful frame of mind on account of inquiries becoming more frequent. Coal production is large, with constantly increas ing shipments to the gulf ports. A LULL AT CHICAGO. Quiet Reigns There After the Heavy Buy ing Done During May. rSrECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCn. Chicago, June 8. Rogers, Brown & Merwln say: The Chicago market shows somewhat of a lull after the heavy buying which was done during tho month of May, many of the large consumers having covered their re quirements for from 6 to 12 months ahead. Good sized Inquiries, however, are still coming in, showing that a liberal amount of business is still pending. As to prices. Southern coke irons are firm nnd the furnaces of this district are indis posed to make contracts for long deliveries, wanting special figures where such deliveries are insisted on. On Northern iron, both coke and charcoal, prices remain pradtically unchanged. Metal Market. New York, June 5. Pig iron dull. Copper fairly steady; lake, June, $12 90.

Capitalistic Drift Toward Real Estate Shown by Recent Purchases. SPECULATION AND BUSINESS HINTS An important transaction Involving a valu able business plant was consummated yes terday by J. B.Larkin& Co. They sold for E. SI. McNnlty the real estate, stock, ma chinery, etc., of tho Pittsburg Show Case Company, whoso office and waroroomsare located at 51 Ninth street, and tho factory at'31, 33and35 Vickroy street, Sixth ward. The consideration was closo to $25,000. This is regarded as the best equipped plant of tho kind west of tho mountains, and it made a great deal of money for its founder and lato owner, Thomas McXulty, deceased. , Tho Shadyside district has furnished a number of good real estate items in the last few months, showing an active movement in that quarter of the city. Yesterday it pro duced another. Charles Somers & Co. sold for John A Graner to Samuel II. Wadstill a residence property sltnated on the corner of Walnut and Bellefonto streets, lot 37x137, with one brick and two frame houses, for $10,000 cash. The Capitalistic Drift. It has been mentioned in this column moro than once that prominent capitalists and business men were showing their faith In Pittsburg real estate by picking it up wher ever they could find It at a ralr price. Among investors of this class may be men tioned Captain Vandergrift, E. II. Ferguson, Colonel Schoonmalter, George H. Bennett, T. D. Mersler, H. C. Frick and others. The sale of a property on Second avenue, near the Central Hotel, for $30,000 was re ported last week, but the name of the pur chaser was omitted. It was learned yester day that Jlr. H. C. Frick was tho lucky man. In this connection it may be stated that an other property in the same locality is about changing hands at a price approximating $40,000, the probable purchaser being a Wood street banker. As further showing tho capitalistic drift toward real estate, The Dispatch representa tive was vestordav shown a letter just re ceived by a prominent broker from one of the Drexels, the well-known Philadelphia bankers, which was in effect an order to buy a piece of downtown property, presumably for banking purposes.

Surplus Funds Will Come Handy 'When Crops Begin to Move. While the absorption of money by borrow ers is on the Increase, denoting a broaden ing tendency of trade, thore is a large sur plus of loanable funds in this market. Such was tbe report of several bankers yesterday. They added that if the crops turned out as expected thero wouldnccessarily be a heavy trade movement in the fall, which would onng into use agreai ueai 01 money. In this view of tho caseaccumulations will serve a good purpose, as a 'shortage at the time when crops must be marketed would inflict great injury upon the farming inter ests and restrict operations in other busi ness lines. A surplus is a good thing to have, especially in times when no ono knows what may happen. There was no change in rates, which were easy at 5K6 on call and 67 on time. Checkingand deposit ing were up to the usual levet Exchanges footed up $2,003,407 55 and balances $45S,202 31. Currency was in good supply.

Traders Still Hesitating Some Good Features and No Very Had Ones The Future of the Tractions Electric Litiga tion Sugar Trust Fight, Although there -was more doing on tho Stock Exchange yesterday tho volume of business was small, amounting to only 105 shares, and little opportunity was presented for the room traders to amass wealth. rce; changes in all cases were forfractions and or no special significance. ., Outside advices indicated that a reaction had set in and that European affairs were re turning to their normal condition. London prices were strong and higher, with St. Paul tho leader. In New York, while trading was slow, prices were firm and tho leaders well held. The .stocks showing Improvement were Manufacturers' nnd Wheeling Gas and Un derground Cable. Tho docllnes were Air brake, Central Traction and Electric. There was the usual gossip anent the Trac tions. The Duquesne people were repre sented as saying they would make satisfac tory time as soon as they could get their machinery in working order, and nlso that they were indifTerent whether the Pittsburg Company resorted to tho use of vans or not. A passenger on a Duquesne car said it cov ered a distance of seven miles in 32 minutes, including stops. . There are two elements to bo considered In coming to a conclusion regarding the fut ure of these properties and tho present valne of tho securities. One is tho possibility of dcvelomnent. In makinir nn their minds about that investors are all on a level. They know Pittsbnrg's past; if they have lively imaginations they mav guess something" of Pittsburg's future. Tho development of Pittsburg means tho development of these street railway properties. The business of these properties must inevitably go on in creasing; and it is likely to go onatapaco that will astonish even those people who mav now be called enthusiasts. The suit of the Edison Electric Light Com-- Einy against tho United States Electric Ightlng Company, now on trial, has been pending for sereral years. There aro seven printea volumes of testimony. Tho present caso is really a question between tho Edison Company and the field, asa decision in favor of plaintiff would throw tho entire manu facture of incandescent lamps into the hands of the Edison Company, and give it royalties .estimated at $2,000,000 a year for the unex pired term of the original patents. Thero are at least 50,000 incandescent lamps manu factured every day. Thore is a big fight among the sugar peo ple about tho dividend. One party wants it passed and the other wants to pay 5 per cent.

SHIPMENTS OF GOLD IS THE GHOST THAT WIIX NOT DOWJf ON WALL STREET. It Prevents the Kxpected Advance In Stocks Tho Market Professional Again A Boom in the Newly-Enlarged Whisky Trust Helps the General List. New York, June 5. The stock market to day seemed to have fully digested tho Rock Island dividend affair, but renewed gold en gagements were against it, and tho promise of an advance shown last evening and dur ing tho early trading this morning was not fulfilled. The influence, however, was, as usual of late, exerted in tho direction of a depression of trading, rather than a depres sion of prices, though the resultant dullness offered the usual opportunity of profes sionals hammering a tuw leading stocks and specialties. Thero was apparently no effort to hold Rock Island up, and with Burlington in closo attendance, it settled away to about the lowest figure of vesterday, though the rest of tho railroad fist, including St. Paul and Louisville, which were active, wore kept within narrow limits throughout the day, and presented no feature whateverin dicating tho prevailing apathy among fec ulators. In the market to-day, the Industrials at tracted as much attention as tho railroad list, with one or two exceptions, and while tne expecteci aiviaenu in sugar naa no power to ndvance the ririco, further realiza tion on yesterday's improvement sent it down again nearly to its late lovel. The ab sorption of tho rival distilleries in Chicago by the Whisky Trust helped that up a little, but the realizations were afterward as marked as in the other case, and little was gained during tbe day. The opening of tho market showed a con tinuance of the covering operations of yes terday, bnt the movement went no further and a general decline was made in the early trading, in which both railroad stocks and Industrials shared, although, except in Sugar, thero was no material loss incurred. The West then began to buy its favorite Industrial, and Chicago Gas started upon an unward movement, which lasted throuch- out the remainder of the day, and which in the late trading succeeded in bringing to a limited extent the general list along with it. Rock Island was a wcakfeatnro throughout, though tho concession from tho best price was no moro than the rally from tho lowest of yesterday. Sugar on the realizations lost about 2 per cent, which was not made up during the day; although the strength of the last hour did much to re cover the loss. Chicago Gas was carried from 51 to 55, and It closed only a slight fraction below the best figure. The general list, however, was brought only to about the level of the opening figures, with tho single exception of Wabash preferred, which was exceptionally strong throughout. The close was lairlv active for tho leadiuir shares and firm to strong at the most insignificant changes. Chicago Gas is up 2lA per cent, and Wabash preferred 1 per cent, but the other final changes aro of no importance. Railroad bonds weie dull and showed, in tho main, a weak tone, though final losses are generally on the some scale as those in the sharo list. The business of tho day reached only $467,000, and no special anima tion was to be 'noted in any portion of the list. Duluth and Iron Range firsts lost 2, at 97, and Norfolk and Western 6s 2, at 114.

J Couxtry Produce (Jobbing Prices) Re ceipts of strawberries were large to-day, and the quality was fine. The demand proved fully equal to the supply, and very few were left in tbe hands of commission men at noon. Cherries aro in good supply and demand is fair. New potatoes are coming In freely from the South, but quality is not the best. Choice old potatoes aro growing scarce and prices are advanced, as our quotations will disclose. The good old potato which has survived thus far Is preferable to the new, if the demand is a criterion. Choice cream ery Is firm at tho advance, and nil common nnd.low grades aro dull. Country butter is worth whatever it will bring. Eggs that are entirely reliable are flrnvnt outside quota tions. Poultry continues to como In freely, and prices are tending downward.

Corn Is the, Strongest feature, Being Con trolled by n Bull CUqne Cable News Control fhe Whea Market Light Trad ing In bats and Provisions. CHICAGO The fluctuations In wheat were confined, to narrow limits to-day. July practically sold-at 08J9SJj;c all day, though it ranged as'high as 99e and as low as 98c on another occasion. There- was but llttlo freshnows from outside. Cables told of im proved crop conditions in Russia; quoted Liverpool prices higher, London unchanged, Paris easier and lower. ' Estimates by some authorities were that the Government crop report; due tbe loth, wonld show a shorter acreaga than In 1884, when the total crop was 512,000,000 bushels. The early weakness was due to offerings and light outside demand. Tho reaction which followed, and which carried prices to the highest point of tho day, was attributed to firmer cables nnd tbo working of cash wheat here for export. Some bear news was received from New York. Shippers were nnxlous.to relet ocean Tpom on account of a falling ,6ff in the demand -for grain. This, together with-weaker continental markets, caused a reaction to bottom prices near the close. Tho corn market appeared to bo In the control of nbult clique. It was weak at tho start; then advanced sharply, and was then beaten down by soles by local operators. The clique then began buving, and speedily put the market' beyond the early figures, assisted .by the fhorts, who ran to covor. July started t 57KWkc, touched 57c, ad vanced to 6c, receded to 57c, but rallied to 53Kc, deoUnlng agpln to 57c at the close. Trading-ln oats was rather limited. Prices were gQVrned largely by the flnctuntions in porn August and September were in good demand- Provisions' wra easy t the outset because tUe receipts of hogs wore larger than antici pated, The strength in 'corn caused an im provement later, bpt the trading was at all times quite light and fluctuations wero con fined to n moderate; range. The September option at the close showed an advance of 20 for porlcsinea yesterday. In lard there was no change, while ribs were 5c up. The leading futures ranged as follows, as corroetetlby Jdhn M.
