THE PETTSBUBG DISPATCH, ' SATURDAY, JULY 25, , 189L 11 IR01 TRADE REVIEW, A Fair Week's Business for Dullest Season in the "Whole Year. the A LULL TILL IT COOLS OFF.. Consumers Well Supplied With 21aterial and Furnaces Are Well Sold Up. Kair WHAT THE SALES FOR THE WEEK SHOW. Condition cf the Irvn .Market at All the Centers North and Sooth. Office of Pittsburg Disfatch, ) Fbidat, July 24. J Raw Irox Aifn Steel Tho market since our last shows signs of weakness as regards certain articles. The volume of business is fair, however, considering we are within one week of the end of July, generally tho dullest month of the 12. While a large num ber of mill have signed the scale a tew are not satisfied and are holding back, and at some points a strike has been inaugurated. Well informed parties predict a qutet mar ket for the next three weeks, as quite a num ber of leading iron men are leaving town to take a w ell earned rest, so that to a certain extent the market will bo deserted by its friends. Tho Shennngo and Mahoning Valley fur naces are selling a good deal of iron, prices being fully up with Pittsburg. The manu facturers of those districts are real live busi ness men. Southern iron does not seem to be wanted. We have learned of no transac tions for some time. It is evident purchas cis can do better elsewhere. Better Times Ahead. The outlook for the fall and winter months is encouraging. In one sense we have a pretty sure thing. Crops arc beyond expec tations, and, what is of equal importance, there is an immediate market for all we liave to spare. This means cash to the mer chant, cash to the tanners, cash to the rail roads, cash to everybody. The only diffi culty appears to be that oven this brilliant outiook cannot be discounted as in former times, hence a large portion of the trade of the country is waiting until the financial jv-,,tion i assured beyond doubt. How long Leiore tliis.tt.ii be done is a problem which lime onl can solve. A well inlormed Eastern broker has this to say: "liu.-incss is light in all departments, although prices are generally maintained. There is demand enough for both crude and Jinished iron to absorb all the cur rent production, so that very little material goes into store for want of purchasers. Pig iron production, too, is mounting rapidly to the high figures of last spring and summer; of course it is but natural that a little weakness is shown here and there in the prices of certain grades ol pig." The Changes Since "Last "Week. The situation compared with last week: Bessemer pig not so much landed, prices a t-hnilo weaker; consumers evidently well supplied. Gray forge weaker, 10 to 15 cents per ton lower. Steel slabs and billets, prices 15.t0 cents lower for August and Septem ber. Muck bar steady at last week's figures. Skelp iron, narrow and white grooved, un changed; sheared iron declined 5 cents, rcrro manganese, Pittsburg prices for do mestic maintained; New York delivery a shade lower. Steel wire rods unchanged, fcerap material dull, prices weaker. The .Latest Notwithstanding dullness trade for the wreK shows up well. For Bes semer the demand has been light, consum ers having laid in a good supply earlier in the month; prices unchanged. Gray forge steady at a slight decline. Blooms and bil lets show onlv a slight falling off in demand. Muck Bir steady. Old steel rails, long lengths in demand at fair prices.

The Usual Midsummer Dullness Reigns Supreme Oier the Chicago Market. 'SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TUE DISPATCH. Chicago, July 2L Rogers, Brown and Mer win say: There is little ot special interest going on in the Chicago pig iron market at present. Small orders are numerous here, lotsol medium size being placed, but the volume of business going is light. This is merely in lino with the regular period of midsummer quiet, and there is little pros ( pect ot .1 revival of buying before September. ..It is .rcporteu that some liberal Miles of .'Northern coke iron have been made, but t,trur.s:ict.oni iiave been few on Southern cokes. On the latter, themarket showssomo signs of weakness as to price, but figures now ruling are so low that many furnaces tnke the position tliat they cannot reduce to a. lower basis and continue to run. Lake Superior charcoals are quiet and thero is little buying being done in this diiection. One leatnro ol the outlook is worthy of note, a more hopeful feeling seems to be gaining ground among consumers in all departments. It is generally conceded that tne huge crop'i.wliich are now virtually assured, will cause a general revival of busi ness all around as soon u-s the same are har "restedaiid monetary proceedings get into circulation. AT 20TT0H PRICES. The Enforced Economy of the Southern Iron Marl.et Still Continues. SPECIAL TELDQBAM TO THE DISrATCH.J I5mMl-GHAM, Ala., July 24. The local iron market should have been stereotyped four months agoandnllowcd to stand. The cur rent belief among iron men here is that it will not have to be ciianged until October. AH calculations are based on a contlnuanco of the present bottom prices until late in the fall. Iron men My the enforced economy of the present strlngo-cy has demonstrated that furnaces which mine their own coaland ore can make iron profitably at an average priceof$.0 and those who buy nil their ma terial can live at those figures. Only two fur nucco in tho district belong to the latter class, while a considerable number buy their ore, and others their coke. Prices vary greatly according to the Bize of the sale and the need of the furnace to force sales. Tho Do Bardeleben Company denied tho re cently reported sale of 40,000 tons at $10. but there is tho best authority for saying if tho figures were too high, still tho company has let a large quantity go at that figure. The furnaces are working as usual, 20 In blast and six idle, and while making no effort to force production, are giving no indications of a disposition to shut down. There is no great accumulation of stocks, thouch the movement in iron toward the market con tinues to require nursing in the shape of cutting below tho quotations as given out. Quotations f. o. b. at furnace are as fol lows: No. 1 foundry, $12 25: No. 2, $11 50; No. 3, $10 50; gray forge, $9 75. Considerable interest is being manifested in efforts to improve tho value of the coke in this district. Large sums have been ex pended on machinery to be used in manipu lating the coal. The export of coal from the Gulf ports continues to engago tho attention of tho mine operators, and the business at Pensa cola is now well established and growing in magnitude. The East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia line have at last completed their through line direct from Mobile to the Cahaba coal fields, but the business of ex port bv that route has as yet attained no di mensions of consequence. BOUND TIP IK FINANCE. The Iron Market Now Seems to Depend En tirely on tho Money Market, rSTECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISrATCH.l Cikcixkati, July 24. Rogers, Brown & Co. say: The iron market continues to drag in nearly all branches. The question is raised whether the present output is excessive. This is met by the answer from past experi ence that, singularly enongh, prices usually advance as output increases. In other words, the markets go counter to the argu ments. Whether'this year will prove an ex ception remains to be seen. It is certain that in some sections of the country business with foun dries and mills is lighter than a month ago, and in some cases ex tremely dull. Again, in the Northwest a good deal of activity Is reported in some quarters. Taken altogether, consumption is probably diminished somewhat. That it will again increase in the early fall no one doubts. The increase of railroad work that was anticipated by midsummer has not yet materialized. Car builders are figuring on a siouu ueai oi woik, out me oraers are piacea very slowly and conservatively, beoause of difficulties in financing. It seems plain, in short, that the whole problem of the iron market is bound up in the future of the money market. While there is no special anxiety or distrust, it is a fact that money is wormng closer at ail western centers, at least, than at any time since last winter. Lake ores are going forward rapidly. Tho special activity in this line is due more to long suspension of shipments in the past than to improvement in the condition- of trade. Very few furnaces are accumulating standard grades of iron. In the South, No. 2 foundry and Nos. 1 and 2 soft are very scarce, and important current orders are not filled. Gray forge and No. 3 foundry have accumulated to some extent. The de mand for charcoal iron is still very light, and buyers can cover wants at below aver age cost of production. NOTHING CHEEBINO AHEAD. The Limited Demand for Iron at Philadel phia Still Continues. TSFECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH Philadelphia, July 24. There is nothing in the iron market on which to base either the hope or claim that an early improve ment may be looked for. Tho demand is limited in extent, but further large increases in output will probably be attended with a corresponding increase in the demand. We quote as follows: Standard Pennyslvania No. lx, $17 7518 00; do No. 2x, $16 5017 00; medium Pennsylvania, No. lx, $17 2517 50; do No. 2x, $16 00 16 25. A little more business is noted in Bessemer pig, but prices are irregular and unsatisfac tory, sales having been made at $16 25516 50 at "furnace for standard qualities. Low phosphorus bessemer is nominally $18 UOrg 18 50 at furnace. Tho local output of struc tural material is somewhat restricted on ac count of the labor difficulties, which has tended to harden prices slightly, although no quotable change has been made from last week, which were as follows: Angles 2.05ffl 2.10c;sheared plates 2.72.10c: tees, 2.52.6c; beams and channels,either iron or steel, 3.1c. The demand for steel rails is only for small lots, with prices firm at $30 f. o. b. cars at mills. , There is little or nothing doing in muck bars, and so irregular are prices that a satis factory range can hardly be named. Prices of bar iron are fairly steady. Some plate mills are pretty well supplied with orders. There is little inquiry, especially for large, quantities. We quote: Tank plates 2f2.10c for iron 2.05j?2.15c forsteel: rcflncd,2.2flSu0c for iron, 2.1G120c for steel; sheet, 2.30Q2.403 for iron, 2.40fE2.50c for steel: flange, 3.20g3 3 )c for iron, 2.5(;g2.75e for steel. Old rails are in slight demand, with $21 502 50 quoted for iron and $17 5i13 TO, delivered, for steel. Scrap iron continues unchanged, and a few sales are reported at these figures: No. 1 railroad scrap, $20 60J?2I 50; No. 2 light, $15 00 1G 00: best machinery scrap, $14 OJ015 00; old car wheels, $16 0017 00. IN BETTER CONDITION. The St. Louis Market Shows More Improve ment Than for Some Time Past. rsr-ECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISrATCH. St. Louis, July 24. Rogers, Brown A Meacham say: The market presents a healthier condition at present than for some time past, and a general improvement is noticed all along tho line. Some cheap Job lot iron is influential in keeping the price of standard irons down, but as inquiries continue to be more numerous, it would ap pear that the stock of this class of iron is being rapidly reduced, and that better prices will be realized in a short while.

Property rangos from $50 to $150 a foot front. The cable road has been of great advantage to this district. As shown by Its recent statement, the ircrman national uanir, or Allegheny, is strong in all departments, and prosperous. The management Is able and conservative. Vico Presltent Stewart states that the freight movement on the Pennsylvania Kail road has increased so heavily during the rast fortnight that it is difficult to provide the cars necessary. Because of alleged falling supplies, the natural gas companies in Springfield and Dayton, O., have doubled their prica. On the stock market good news falls flat and is treated with indifference.

TO A Natural Reaction Lnstcr Still Climbing by Easy Stages Itallroad Shares in Good Favor Confidence In the Tractions Sales and Final Quotations. Tho feature of the stock market yesterday was tho sale, at the last call, of 200 shares of Duquesno Traction stock at 15. The significance of this transaction is not in the price, but in tho fact that It shows confidence in the outcome of the street rail ways.upon tho success of which tho material growth of the city so largely depends. Business was slow. There were a few orders to fill, but they were either above or below tho market. Luster was stronger. Some expressed the opinion that it had reached highwater mark on the present bulge, but a9 insiders are the only buyers this prediction is open to doubt. Philadelphia Gas held the improvement of Thursday and added something to it. The reaction from a point not warranted by the condition of the company is both reasonable and natural. The stock has too much in herent strength to be allowed to remain a plaything for the bears. The certainty of good crops and plenty of business for the railroads is bringing these securities into prominence. There are buyers for nearly all tho local roads, and they are generally quoted at an advance. Yesterday there were orders for Chartiers at 54, but none was offered. Investors continue to look with favor upon bank shares. Recently published statements show these institutions to be strong and prosperous. An attempt to fill an order for the Commercial National yes terday put the price up half a point. Sales were: First call 50 shares of Philadelphia Gas atlL Second call No sales. Third call 2C0 Duquesne Traction at 15, 10 Luster at 1 Bids and asking prices at each call are appended: FIRST SECOND THIRD ZXCnAXGE CALL CALL CALL STOCK. B A B A B A Allo'ghv N.

STAGNANT WALL STREET. NEITHER GOOD NOR BAD NEWS HAS VERY MUCH EFFECT. Stocks Lifeless, but Strong The Selling, Down of Burlington About the ' Only Feature Coal Shares Decline in the Last Hour lionds More Active. New York, July 24. Tho stock market to day still continued in its rut of dullness, hut under the circumstances displayed marked strength. The bears were favored by tho taking of $1,500,000 gold for export, but, not withstanding this factor, their strength had been so exhausted by the efforts of the last two or three days that they were apparently nnable to take advantage of .the aid ac corded. The selling of Burlington last eveningwas reflected In an increased demand for tho stock in the loan crowd, and while thero was still considerable manipulation of tho price in the downward direction, it seemed to bo more for the purpose of covering the already outstanding short contracts to further depress tho price. The other aotive stocks, which included only St. Paul, Louis ville and Nashville and Atchison, were com paratively quiet to-day, and in company with all the rest of the list fluctuated within the narrowest limits. The market was nevermore entirely at a stand-still than now. It responds to neither favorable nor unfavorable developments, and largo crop movements, increased earn ings and tho easy condition of the finances both at home and abroad fall flat upon the market, as well as gold shipments and bear drives at special stocks. In fact, the pre vailing dullness is tho most powerful bear aigumont brought to bear. The operators in stocks, both Targe and small, are all wait ing for developments, and the inflnence of the forclzn situation, with its disagreeable possibilities for the time being, entirely neu tralizes the effects ef the flattering pros pects at home. The market opened this morning with a continuance of the pressure to sell of last evening, but there was more resistance of fered to the decline, and it soon ceased, after which the entire market remained Ut terly barren of feature outside of the activ ity in Burlington and the selling down of a few specialties, with the sudden decline ol the Coal stocks in tho last hour. The gen eral list throughout remained dull at the same level. Among the specialties which showed marked weakness, East Tennessee second preferred, Lackawanna and New England were specially prominent, tho losses being apparently for no reason be yond pressure on a market with no demand. he market finally closed very dull and heavy to weak at the lowest prices, but with most of the list at insignificant changes from last ovening. East Tennessee second preferred lost lfi; New England, 1; Lack awanna, 1, and Burlington, . Railroad bonds showed a little more char acter than usual of late, but the movements were quito irregular and confined to the in- active issues. The tone of the general mar ket was fairly steady, but resulted in no material changes among tho active bonds. The business done reached $538,000. with transactions in a large number of bonds, but no animation in any part of the list. The important changes are generally in the direction of lower figures, while Denver and Rio Grande 5s rose 3 to 80.

The opportunities for securing low price fruits and vegetables of the very best qual ity have not been as good for years as they will be to-day. Our markets have been glutted with garden stuff ot all kinds for the past few days, and prices are daily drifting downward. Tomatoes, cabbage, potatoes, celery, melons, and all kinds of fruit, both domestic) and foreign, have touched theirlowest point this week. The market basket should groan to-day with all the needful supplies of tho best quality.at rates satisfying to everybody. Home grown fruits and vegetables are com ing in so freely of late that Southern pro ducts have little show. With the great excess of domestic fruits. iruits irom tne tropics are auu anu slow. Lemons are tho exception to the rule, being in better demand, at higher prices than prevailed last week. The hot weather is no doubt responsible for higher priced lemons. Among the new products on the stalls the. roasting ears. The latter which showed up for the first timo last week are now in full- supply at much reduced rates.

THE CEREAL SITUATION IS UNCHANGED Office of PrrrsErnto Dispatch. ) Friday, Jnly 24. 5 Cocktrt Product (Jobbing Prices) To the consumer of fruits and vegetables mar kets are entirely satisfactory. Dut producers find little comforting in the situation. All tho week markets have been glutted, and prices have betm daily declining. Wo note no further reductions to-day, as bottom was clear out of markets yesterday, and garden ers were then unloading their products at whatever they would bring. Ohio cheese is firm and a shade higher. Jobbers report that Pittsburg markets have of late been relatively lower than at other trade centers, both East and West, In Ohio cheeso lines. Sharp competition, It is claimed, has been the death of trade.

Groceries. Trade in this department moves along in the same old ruts. Soft white sugars, which have been scarce of late, are now in fair sup ply. Yellow sugars, however, are still scarce.

CHICAGO Wheat was inclined to weak ness most of the session, local sentiment being somewhat bearish. The outside news had a good many strong features, and the weak tendency wns held in check. Liver pool cables quoted spot wheat d higher, but futures were Hi lower, while London was somewhat higher. Cold weathor In tho Northwest led to some talk of possible frost to the great injury of wheat in the locality, and the early prices showed a trifling ad vance from last night. Among the early continental cables was one from Paris quoting wheat there K frano lower and flour 1 franc lower. The scalping element quickly fell into line, and for a time the market had a very weak appear ance, nnd December, which had sold early as high as SSJJc, broke to 87Jc. St. Lonis and the Northwest sold a good deal on the down turn. New York buying orders came in, und this demand, with more talk of frost in Wisconsin and the far Northwest, turned the tide, and thero was a rally to &Wc. Free realizing broke the price to S8c, but there was another rally to SSKc The receipts here were about 30 cars above the estimate, and St. Louis and Toledo also bad heavy re ceipts. The maket was quiet and steady in the af ternoon, fluctuatlngjbetween SSJ-jc and 88Jc, and closing at 8Sc, the opening figure. Corn was rather unsettled, having a very weak spot after the opening, but then turn ing quite strong and holding most of the ad vance. The local receipts were about 50 cars below the estimate, and the opening was rather firm, September selling 5454c; then on. the weakness in wheat and provisions, and free selling, there was a decline to 53c Cold, unfavorable weather reported from the West, and wheat and oats developing some strength, September sold up to Slc. During tho last hour the trade was quiet, with fluctuations between 54ic and o4c, closing at the latter figure. Lash corn was in active demand, No. 2 seUing at 6060Jc, and No. 2 yellow up to 63c. Oats were again quite unsettled for July. The first sale was at 35c, but long property being offered freely, and 56 cars of new oats being inspected, nearly all being No. 2 oats, broke to 33Kc; reacted to 35Jc, and then be came steady around 353S(io, but closed at 33Jfc. Hog products were weak and lower. Live bogs at the yards were 510c off, and there was free selling of pork, and tho mark for September pork went from $11 50 to $11 75. At this point the shorts stopped the down ward movement by covering, and carried the price to the opening figure at the close. The changes from yesterday's last prices were insignificant at the close. The leading futures ranged as follows, as corrected by John M. Oakley & Co.. 43 Sixth street, members of Chicago Board Trade: Dry salt clear sides, 10-jl average Dry salt clear sides, 29-10 average Mess pork, heavy Mess pork, family Lard, refined.
