Office of Pittsbcbo Dispatch, )
JIosdat, Sept. 7. J
At the East Liberty yards markets opened
this morning with 127 loads of cattle on
sale, against 73 loads last Monday and 78
loads the week before In to-day's ofierings
there were 3G to 40 loads from Chicago.
There were no strictly prime heavy beeves
on Rale. The hulk of the offerings consisted
of medium and low grade stock. Buyers
were present in fair force, but made the
most of their opportunity and forced sellers
to concede from 15c to 2jc per cwt on priees
of last week. Light, tidy butcher beeves
suffered least from the decline in prices.
Markets opened slow, and prospects ere
that common stock would go begging
for buyers at a greater reduction than 25c
1er rwt. The best beeves on salo did not
rtng much, it anv, above $5 50 in carload
lot. A. linid. of 1.450-lb slcers from Ohio,
clo-e to prime was sold at $5 50. Fresh cows
were in liberal supply, and .ill excepting the
choicest were slow. Good stock vas scarce
in tbU line, anil, with a lew exceptions, the
top of the market was $33 00 per head. The
run of calves was a fair average, and last
week's prices were maintained. The top of
markets lor vcalers was 6c per fi.
Not So Many of These.
Sheep ana lambs were in liht supply.
There were about 8 loads on sale at the
opening of the market, and the demand was
active at an advance of 15 to 25c per cwt. on
sheep, and a still greater advanco on lambs,
f-ome dealers reported an advance of JJc per
lb. on lambs. The top or market for sheep
wa 5e per lb. and for lambs 5fc per lb.
There were on sale about 2S carloads of hogs,
anil markets opened slow at a decline of Jc
per lb. from last Monday's prices. Best se
lected Philadelphia sold at $5 55, and the
proportion of this quality on the market
was small. There does not seem to be any
longer a market for prime beeves at tne
Liberty yards. The butchers whose trade
demands this grade of cattle bring their
gtull' directly from Chicago.

THE DRIFT OF TRADE.

change, but Otherwise
BUSINESS IS ABODT AS USUAL.
Financial and Speculative Conditions
Strong and Growing Stronger.
NO FEAES OF A MONETARY STRINGENCY
Yesterday was a large holiday in defer
ence to labor, but so many people were at.
work, the stores and shops were so well
patronized, and the streets so thronged
that the character of the day was not ob
vious to the observer. The Exchange and
banks were closed, but in other respects
Labor Day was much like other days.
Stock brokers did little, and had nothing to
say. There was some inquiry lor Philadel
phia Gas and Luster at close to Saturday's
figures. It was reported that the Air
brake Company would soon reduce the
hours of labor and wages.
Will Build Next Spring.
Colonade row, on Federal street, Alle
gheny, will not be torn down this year.
Xext spring it will disappear and be suc
ceeded by a six or eight story business
house. The outcome of this improvement
will be closely watched. It is predicted
that it. will wake up owners on that part of
the street and pioneer tho way for a general
overhauling ot the antiquated structures
which have long survived their usefulness.
This will bo a distinct gain to tho Xortbside.
Indications of Easy Money.
The improvement in mercantile nnd manu
facturing lines points to a larger use of
money from this time forward, and there is
some apprehension of a hardening of inter
est rates. As a foil to this, it is pointed out
that the return of gold from Europe and of
currency from tho West after the crops are
moved will counterbalance the absorption
of funds by the expansion of legitimate
trade and maintain the market in an easy
condition. The latter view is the more rea
sonable of the two. Xot for many years has
the supply of funds been so easy at the
opening of the fall season. T.here are no
complaints of scarcity from any source. No
worthy interest has suffered for necessary
assistance. The condition of tho Pittsburg
banks was never better. All the financial
bearings tend in the direction of promise.
The strong position of the market will be
reinforced by the return of thegold exported
to Eurone, which will contribute to its case
and efficiency. From these considerations
there would seem to bo no reason to appre
hend a stringency, without which an ad
vance in rates would be an anomaly in busi
ness. "Widening Its Field.
Preliminary work on the McKee building,
at the corner of Wood and Diamond streets,
is well under way. It will cover the lot and
be two stories high. As stated some time
ago, it will be occupied by the Edison
Electric Company on a flvo years' lease at
an annual rental of $7,000. The company has
been represented in this city for several
years, but proposes to extend the field of its
operations. It will display a full line of
electrical goods, but the report that it will
compete for city lighting has no foundation
in fact at present. What it may do is
further along.
Outlook for Stocks.
In regard to local stocks, it is clear to even
ordinary observation that tho public is on
the bull side. The realizing of profits has
reached a point to leave the market free to
move forward. It is as certain as anything
can be, that there will be no general move
ment backward. Stocks, as a general thing,
are in strong hands, which of itself is suf
ficient to insure a "strong market. But bet
ter than all, perhaps, is the fact that nearly
all the weak spots developed early in tho
season have been fixed up, and no longer
act as a dragnet on other unimpeachable
securities. This has strengthened public
confidence, and won Dack a great many in
vestors who had become disgusted and left
the market.
1 An Important Meeting.
The next important local corporation
meeting will be that of the Union Switch
and Signal Company on the 16th inst. At
this meeting the stockholders will take
action 'on the proposition to confirm the
sale of the Garrison alley property to the
Westinghouse Electric Company, and to
transfer the mortgage lien from this prop
erty to the property of the Switch and
Sisnnl Company at Swissvale. Of the
$3o0,000 bonds issued by tho latter company
$293,0j0 was taken by the Airbrake Company
and $51,000 sold to speculators. Interest
amounting to about $100,000 on the holdings
of the Airbaake Company has not been paid.
The notification of the sale of the property
and the removal of the Jien will enable the
Switcli and Signal Company to meet the
obligation and place itself on a better finan
cial footing generally.
A ISoom on.the Way.
Some peculiar theories havo been ad
vanced in regard to seasons of activity in
realty. Basing his calculations on the his
tory of real estate transactions all over the
country, one broker of a philosophical turn
of mind attempts to show that "booms" or
seasons of activity have a tendency to move
from west to east. According to his theory
the movement of last year in Chicago was
but a transfer of the activity of a few years
ago among the towns along the Pacific coast
and more recently in Kansas City, St. Paul,
Minneapolis and Omaha. Following his
idea the next scenes of activity will be in
the East, embracing the largo cities of the
Ohio Vallev. and later Boston, Xew York
Philadelphia, and Pittsburg.

v THE WELLS INCREASING.
THE DRILL AUGMENTS THE PRODUC
TION YESTERDAY.
An Enormous Output Guaranteed New
Wells Abont Due to Get tho Pay Streak
Tho Moon Field. Coming to the Front
With New Producers.
Although there were new wells drilled
into the fifth sand yesterday, there were a
number of wells which enlarged the average
daily production. There are a score of
wells in the field which, with a little agita
tion, will yield as much oil as many
of the wells which stnrted off
at big figures. These wells can
not be counted ns regular- producers, as
one day they are liable to do almost any
amount of oil and the next nothing at alL
"When such wells are struck theyare looked
upon as big ones, but their aggregate pro
duction is seldom greater than that of aver
age wells. Many of these, however, are big
producers, and give the owners the most
sanguine hopes of immortal riches.
In the Great Southwest.
In the southwest field several wells were
drilled to the lower depths yesterday.
Among these were Guffey, Murphy & Co.'s
well n tho Baldwin farm, which increased
from L0 to 125 barrels a day. This enormous
incre:se was produced by a few runs of tho
drill and in a lew moments everyone who
had tho least idea of this well knew that' it
was one of tho best in the country. It was
isolated from everything else and was
known far and wide as a well which if good
would prove a bonanza to its owners. Such
tilings will always be, and no ono can stop
them. If the owner persists in pushing his
ense, in nine cases out of ten tho opposition
will succumb to his advances, and it is much
tho same way in the oil business. If a pro
ducer can be shown that he-will'notgeta
well of at least 100 barrels capnclty in n field
where the wells average at leasj 500 barrels
a day, he will call a halt; and may in all prob
ability ask for a more secluded nook in
which to vent his love. In snch cases the
lover is never blamed, but the one who
plans the clandestine .meetings is looked
upon as a near relation of Mophistopheles.
There isnot one of thoproducors who would
not indignantly deny that we were in league
with the ruler of the lower regions. When,
however, wo engage in the oil business wo
are in the hands of persons who are unutter
ably opposed to us. For instance the well
of the Woodland Oil Company, a mile north
west of Oakdale, was drilled deeper yester
day and rapidly increased from 40 to 100 bar
rels an hour. It was reported last night to
be flowing at the latter figure and
this alone n as enough to attract the atten
tion of other residents in the neighborhood.
It is ono of tho greatest wells in the south
western oil district, and was looked upon as
dry. It is without doubt a marvel in the
field.
In the Moon Field.
Moon Boden & Co.'s well, on the Springer,
is good for 100 barrels a day, and George
Gillnor & Co.'s well, on the Sam Stevenson
farm, is showing for at least 125 barrels a
ciay.
