IVedxesdat, July 1. J
There were 85 carloads of cattle on sale at
the Eact Liberty yards on Mon day morning
against 120 loads the previous Monday and
78 loads the -neck before. Quality of offer
ings was a decided Improvement on receipts
of the past fen- weeks. The complaint of
excessive supply of low-grade beeves, which
Las become very common of late, had no
grounds this week. There were more
prime cattle on sale than usual and com
jwratnely few of the common and inferior
etock.which has been the bane of ourmarkets
for month past. Buyers were present in
lareer force than usual, and this fact to
gether with lighter receipts and improved
quality of offeiings imparted an activity to
IcurXeM w Ulcli has not been known for some
w."r.ks past. Trices wore strong, 15 to 25c per
cwu higher thnn they were a week ago.
A ball dozen loads' of prime 1,400 to 1,500-tt
Southern Ohio beeves were sold at $C 10.
Tno highest price attained last week was
$5 To.
bince Monday about a dozen loads have
been received, making a total for the week
of about 97 carloads.
A Xuss After the Gain.
Under the influence of the additional re
ceipts, Tuesday's markets partially lost the
ground which had been gained on Monday.
Stockmen are all agreed that the number of
rine rraln fed beeves in the land is unus
ually small. Grain has been so high the past
t .ntor that cattle received a moderate allow
ance and the effect is seen in the scarcity of
p. :n;c beeves. I'rl.-o of primes is more apt
to aurar.ee than to go lower.
sheep and Lambs There have been on
sale thus week close to 40 loads against the
fame number a -week ago. Markets opened
Monday a: lar wwk's prices, hut lost some
i hat on Tuesday, when a 10c decline on
Blivep whs reported. Spr!ng lambs, however,
wre iu.n-.imUj scarce, and for this reason
full hsld their own.
Ho- rhe number on alo for the week
has not been above n dozen carloads. Market
n-tve. ara slight advance. Top prices were
fu:ly 10c per cwt. above those of last week.

CORN TO THE RESCUE.
Wheat "Weak and Declining Until Hear tho
Close, When It Makes an Upward Spurt
Corn and Oats Strong and Advancing
Pro visions Active.
CHICAGO Wheat opened weak and
lower. The situation for a time seemed
wholly in the bears' favor. The weather in
the Southwest was all that could be desired,
and cables were among the weakest yet re
ceived. Eeerbohm quoted Liverpool l2d
lower, London Cd to Is lower on California,
and hardly any demand even at tho reduc
tion. Prices made even nn elaborate bad
showing. They said that the weather was
line, that Europe had overbought, that hold
ers would have to let go, and that French
hoi dors wero anxious sellers. Antwerp re
ported no prospect for an improvement
until tne neavy receipts 01 April anaoune
had gone into consumption.
The markets on this side all rnled lower,
and for a timo there was a weak and sluggish
feeling here; but tho deliveries in July con
tracts were very light in fact almost noth
ingand it.was found that, weak as the mar
ket appeared to be, thpro wa9( little or no
pressure to soil. Xew York reported liberal
clearances yesterday, and then camo JJrad
streeCs report showing a decrease in the
available supply during the week of 1,492,000
bnshols East of'the Rockies, and 1E2.00J bush
els increase on the West coast. This im
proved the leollng a little.
Corn made a spuigo about this time, and
other influences combined put some life and
vigor into the trade, but the business de
veloped Vas not large. Theadvance brought
out free offerings, both in the wav of realiz
ing on purchases made early and also in the
nay of short selling, and the bull news, as
wed as the bull cuthusiasm, being exhausted,
, here was a drop in values.
Prices remained rather steady, with a light
business passing, until within a few minutes
of the close, when the, shorts took fright,
probably on rnmors of a corner abroad, and
amid soma excitement rushed in to cover.
putting prices to the highest point of the
dav, tlie maiket closing firm. July opened
at 89gS9K. sold to 8 rallied to 90, fluctuated
narrowly with an upward tendency till just
before the close, when it bounded'from 90K
to 92K, and closed there. December opened
at S7S7J& sold off to 87, rallied, and in
final rush ent to 89.
Corn developed a good deal of strength
and kept it to the end. There was growing
uneasiness on the part ofshorts and in
creased efforts to cover. Cables were
str nger, tho cash demand liberal, and ad
vices from the interior indicated that ship
ments are very likely to show a serious fall
ing off. The offerings wem limited and there
was an active competition for all that was
for sale. Some big shortlineswere covered.
July opened at 51K543c: sold up with fre
quent small reactions to 65Jc; broke to55c
near the close; advanced again n ith wheat
to 56c, and closed Ho lower. The fluctuations
in oats followed those in corn.
Provisions were fairly active and inclined
to firmness, owing to the strength in corn,
i,ive nogs at tne yarns, nowover, were sioc
lower. September pork, as the result
of the dnv's trading, shows nn advance of

THEFEaTUKES-OF LOCAL SPECULATION
Another element of uncertainty has en
tered into the final disposition of the Christ
Church property. It was stated a short time
ago on good authority that the Smithfleld
Street Church people had no notion of sell
ing, but would likely put up a larger build
ing in the course of two or three years.
Some of the leading members of the congre
gation now think the lot is too small for
such a structure as they require ana are in
favor of selling It and buying the Christ
Church property. This change of sentiment
seems to have taken place since tho publica
tion alluded to. The trustees held a meet
ing Tuesday evening and talked the matter
over, but postponed definite action until
next week. It was learned yesterday that
the drift of opinion was in favor of putting
in a bid for the Christ Church lot. Among
other bidders, according to report, are Jos
eph Home, a prominent clothing firm and a
Philadelphia capitalist. Bids will be opened
on the 18th" when the longest pole will prob
ably knock the persimmon. About 18

A Pnzzle to Some People.
This question was asked by a business
man the other day: "Where is the volume
of lot buyers recruited?" There is no diffi
culty in answering. Pittsburg is so pros
perous that almost every toiler, Bkilled or
unskilled, is a buyer. Tho mills and shops
arc full of them, and there is a steady ac
cession from other cities and towns. Pitts
burg is the Mecca of the workingman, and
so long as she holds that position there will
oe no aoriagement in tnenumoer 01 101 ouy
ers. The yearnings for proprietorships is so
strong in this community, and the moans of
achieving it so clearly within the reach of
all, that few are Content to occupy rented
quarters longer than thev can mako provi
sion for homes of their own. This is a land
able ambition, and should be encouraged by
owners and builders.
The Last Shall Be First.
The last half of the year opens nndermore
favorable auspices than the first half. Then
financial distrust was general, money was
tied up, crippling enterprise, a great strike
impending, and the outcome of the crops
problematical. Now money is abundant and
easy, confidence is restored, large crops are
assured, and the strike in the building trades
has almost, if not quite, run its course. Con
ditions are all right for a forward move
ment, but as this Is the dull season of the
year, a bulge is not expected. By the middle
of August, nowever, when the crops begin to
move, unless hitherto infallible signs .full,
Pittsburg and the country will see n revival
in all lines of business that will
more than make up for the deficiency
of the past six months. Owing to
the urgentdemand for houses, building op
erations will be pushed with great vigor.
Sites have been purchased and plans pre
pared for a large number of public and pri
vate structures, which will be begun as soon
as workmen can be obtained.

A HALF TEAB'S W0EK.
Volume of Business Larger Than Ever Be
fore, With One Exception.
The financial showing for the first half of
the year, and especially for June, is much
better than expected. So much had been
said about depression and stagnation that
the average citizen had come to think that
everything was flat on its back. This, as fig.
ures show, was a misconception of the situa
tion. The first half of the present year piled
up a larger aggregate of business than any
corresponding period in the history of the
city, with the single exception of 1890. Tho
first six months of 1889 were so prosperous,
and the volume of trade so large, that many
thought the limit of expansion had been
reached for at least a decade. Yet 1891 breaks
that magnlflcont record by many millions,
bank clearings for June alono showing a
gain of more than $10,009,000 over the same
month in 1889.
Tho city is not at tho top of her bent, but
she is far from the bottom, and those who,
"making proper allowance for the depressing
Influences with which she has been environ
ed, And fault with the result of the first half
of the year, are hard to please Indeed. Their
fosltlon may be compared to that of the
llinoLs hermit, who, ragged and starving,
enlisted the sympathy of a neighboring
farmer, who gave liini a jag of corn in the
ear.. "I think you might have shelled it,"
was the only response the ungrateful wretch
deigned to make.
Tho money market was easy yesterday,
funds being largely in excess of calls, nnd
notes unchanged a 5J7 per cent, accord
ing to date and collateral. Routine business
was about up to tho usnal level. Tho dis
bursement of large amounts in interest and
dividends during tho next week or two may
induce private capitalists to shade rates, but
there will be njo change nt tho banks. The
prospect for the employment of idle capital
in the near future is so good that bankers
would rather keep their funds than put
them out nt a shave. Exchanges were $2,
432,014 59 and balances, $417,012 57.
At New York yesterday money on call was
easy at 2 to 4 per cent; last loan 2, closed

RUMOR OF A BIG DEAL BY THfi SWITCH
AND SIGNAL COMPANY.
The Westinghouse Patents Said to Be In
volvedSigns of Friction at the Coming
Meeting of the Electric and Manufactur
ing Company Market Features.
There was a better feeling in business cir
cles yesterday, owing to the signing of the
iron scale and the belief that the carpenters
would soon resume work, but liere was no
improvement on the Stock Exchange. Sales
of 110 shares comprised the day's business.
As compared with the previous closei Phil
adelphia Gas and Citizens' Traction wero
about steady. Pittsburg Traction and Pleas
ant valley wero down and respectively.
Lu9ter advanced and Electric . The un
listed Tractions held to their former posi
tions, except Manchester, which was frac
tionally weaker.
It is stated that considerable Electric stock
hold here will not be surrendered to the
Reorganization Coihmittee, and this prom
ises to lead to grave complications at the
meeting to bo held on the 15th. The follow
ing from the New York Journal of Finante is
of interest in this connection:
."Now that the Westinghouse committee
has placed a time limit in which to send fh
tho stock for reorganization, the street is
waiting with curiosity to see what the result
will be. There are still quite a number who
avow that nothing can inunce them to give
up their holdings, and there are hints of the
matter being brought into the courts and an
injunctionjasked to restrain the company
from proceeding with the reorganization.
The company claims that. It could, have pro
ceeded with the reorganization when a
majority of tho stock liad been deposited,
but that it did not wish to do this with only
a bare majority, and hence has waited until
it had about lOj.OCO shaies.
"Tho placing of this time limit Is expected
to work very satisfactorily, and the friends
of the company say it should have been
done some time ago. Those shares which
remain nnassented will. It Is said, be treated
quite differently from the assented stock,
which really becomes a second preferred
stock."
The street has settled down to the opinion
that the Sn-itchandSignal Company is work
ing an important deal of some kind, but
what it is is so far a close secret. This
opinion is partly based on the fact that
certain brokers have lately received orders
to buy several 100 share lots, but as thero is
none offering they have bo far been unsuc
cessful. That there should be none on the
market, with these orders known to exist, is
suspicious, and bears out the idea that
something is going on. A prominent broker
said j'estorday ho believed It involved the
purchase of the Westinghouse patents. So
lar as known there is no trouble in the man
agement. Bonds of the Manufacturers' Natural Gas

A TEMPORARY CHECK
HAS NO PERM ANENTEFFECT ON STOCK
MAKKLT BULLS.
The Money Question Ceases to Be Much of a
Factor Sugar Down Owing to a Court
Decision Industrials Are Stronger Than
Railroad Shares.
New Yore, July 1. In the stock market to
day the demand from shorts who wei e forced
to cover yesterday ceased, and the higher
figures met with a supply of stocks which lor
the moment checked the upward movement,
though no reaction was seen, even when tho
market had settled down into the old dull
ness. London was still a buyer to a limited
extent, and the continued weakness in ex
change neutralized tho Influence of the fur
ther small gold export, and tho prevailing
sentiment was decidedly bullish. Thero
never was a t.mo'when the July settlements
were carried through with so little disturb
ance of loans. The rates for money today
wero phenomenally low for such a time. This
is one of tho principal sustaining forces in
the market at present, and whatever caused
tho hesitation of buyers in tho stock market
the money question is evidently nota factor.
Movements proved that tho shorts are easily
drivencto cover, apd are nervous.
The openimr this morning was decidedly
strong, and Louisville and Nashville was
lpo-crntliutierilian last evening, whllo
the rest of the list showed gains of irom i
10 per cent. The new selling by the trail
ing element checked the rise, however and
even forced some declines In the railroad
list, but these were afterward fnllT recov
ered, with something in addition. The
Industrials came to the front with
the Increasing dullness in railroad
stocks, nnd the rnmors in regard to
Sugar, with the granting of an injunction
against the payment of tho dividend, re
sulted in a decline of 2K per cent, which,
however, was afterward practically recov
ered, while Cordage scored a substantial
improvement for the day.
Amnn&r tlip nnpMnlHpa flinrA wnrn n few
marked advances, and Louisville, New A1-.
uuiiy unu unicago rose irom -&-?& 10 k, auu
Colorado Coal and Tennessee Coal each 1 per
cent. Among the railroad stocks only St.
Paul, Louisville and Atchison and Burling
ton showed any animation, and the fluctua
tions' in the general list were confined to tho
limits usnal during the last month. The
market Anally eased off slightly in the after
noon, closing barely steady at Insignificant
cnanges for the day in most stocks, while
Louisville rose 1 and Tennessee Coal 1.
Silver Certificates weakened somewhat dur
ing the day, but offered no feature.
Railroad bonds were even more than usual
devoid of feature. There was little trading
and. small fluctuations. The total trans
actions reached only $577,000, and no ma
terial change occurred in any issue.

As predicted in this column a week ago,
bananas are scarce and the looked-for ad

close. From present outlook tliera will
hardly be enough bananas to go around this

The following from the Iloston Herald pre-
sents some interesting ikcts on the coffee
situation:
"The feature in the coffee trade is an ad
vance in the wholesale market of about Ho
on n early all classes. This has been brought
about by the continued small receipts at Bio,
and nothing coming in at Santos. New York
speculators nnd dealers havo got hold of the
idea that It is possible'to boom the market,
for a while at least, and they have been buy
ing, and nt stronger prices. The Maracaibo
steamer got in on Tuesday, and immediately
her coffees sold offnt an advance in price of
about fa over the last sales; The feeling in
the market is, however, that this boom and
firmness can last only till the new crop gets
to coming In freely, and coffees begin to ac
cumulate. "The statistical position is firm. The New
York market was wired steady and un
changed. Tho Rio cable gave receiptsat
Rio of 9,000 bags, but nothing at Santos. The
weekly Rio cable quotes tno market very
firm, with exchange at 13JA1. The daily
average of receipts for the week were 9,500
bags: shipments to Europe, 14,000 bags;to the
United States, 26.0C0 tags. The total stock
on hand at Rio is now 159,000 bags; last year
same time, 153,000 bags. The total visible
supply is now 210,990 bags; same time last
year, 373,935 bags; same time in 1889,600,376
bags. On the crop, up to Jnne 25, the re
ceipts at Rio were 2,364,000 bags; same time a
ycarago, 2 368,000 bags; same time in 18S9, 4,-
.iiu.uAj oacs.
"Agentleman living very near to the coffee
districts of Santos, nnd now on a visit to
Portland, Me., explains to a member of the
coffee trade hero the reason for the present
light receipts of Santos coffee. He says that
the crop is really very light along the line of
the coast, from which districts the coffees are
now coming in, but hack in the interior there
is a magnificent crop, which will be coming
In later. He also explains that there is a
vast increase in the number of coffee trees
in both Rio and Santos, that this increase is
going on, and that for this reason future
crops of coffee are sure to be larger and
larger. The planters havo made money so
rapidly since the high prices in coffee that it
has greatly stimulated the culture of coffee
trees."

Wayne and Chicago Railway, as follows: i
cars of corn, 11 of oats, 6 of hay, 9 of flour, I
of rye. By Baltimorennd Ohio, 1 car of oats,
4 of hay. By Pittsburg and Lake Erie, 1 car
of oats, 1 of hay, 1 of malt. By Pittsburg,
Cincinnati and St. Louis, 1 car of corn. The
cereal situation is essentially the same as
yesterday. Trade shows little animation,
spring wheat flour is relatively lower than
winter wheat flour. Usually there is a dif
ference of $1 per barrel, whereas the present
difference is only 50c per barrel. Jobbers
generally regard spring patents as now at
the bottom, notwithstanding the declining
drift of the wheat market.
Prices quoted below are for car lots, on
track. From store there is a slight advance
on these rates.

There is a better tone to trade in this line,
owing to the hope that the strike is about
over. At the best volumo of trade cannot
catch up to last year. Hard woods are hold
