market has been firm. Sales were made on
Tuesday as high as 47s 8d for Scotch, 40s 10d

The pig tin market has been rather
quieter, and prices receded to 91 for
prompts on Tucsdav. The tendency ap
peared to Ie in buers' favor, as. some
holders manifested anxiety to retlize. Stocks
here arc still moderate and chiefly in strong
hands Copper has been quieter the past
week, and prices for merchant bars receded
Mow. This was due cbieflj to holding back
on the part or the buj ers. Supplies are still
spiringi olfercd. Consumers net as though
inclined to resist nn advance, but the quan
tity of copper in hands is beliei cd to be mod

MARKETS RATHER XERVOUS.

CniCAGO The wheat market was nerv
ous to-day. It was generally strong, though,
n ith quick turns uu and down, but keeping
aboie jesterdays closing figure. At the
start a few nenous shorts began to buy on
the strength or tho fact- that British consols
were reported a point lower. This, tliey
iirgned, was an indication that the danger of
war had not entirely passed on ;the other
side of the water. The result was that the
market, which opened rather easy, at once
took on a strong and advancing tone, bpt
there was an absence of any decidedly bul
lish news, and as soon as this little buying
spurt was oer the market weakened. Sell
ing was free on the advance, and as it con
tinued after the demand wns appeased the
price went off about as rapidly as it had
cone un
uecenmer started at 97JesJ$e, quiCKiy
sold to97e, reacted to 97c, and rested for a
time around that figure, which was the clos
ing price icstcrday. During this period of
comparatiie steadiness a dispatch from
Xew ork was handed around, saying that
a cable dispatch received there quoted
puccslowerat Paris on a rumor that the
x'rench Minister or Finance w as dead. Curi
ously enough this wns followed bva heavy
run of bnj ing orders from Xew York. They
were supplemented with similar, orders
from st I.ouis, and a Xew York telegram
ad i i-cd tint foreigners were buying freely
there. This mused a season of considerable

seemed to have discouraged the clique who

BOAT BUILDING IN THE OLDEN TIME
V
Harvey B. Chess, of Chess, Cook & Ca,
yesterday took out a permit for two cement
two-storv and attic dwellings on Aiken
'avenue,- Twentieth.ward. These will be a
departure in the building line, and perhaps
the pioneers of many others. The exterior
walls are to be of cement applied to ex
panded metal. The lathing will be at
tached to ordinary wooden studding. The
interiors will be plaster done on the same
material. Mr. Walter Chess is erecting a
house of the same material in the Twenty
second wnrd. They will be fire-proof. Tho
three houses will cost $21,003.
A real estate operator, who understands
the market as well as any other man in the
city, nnd who hns just returned from a
three months' trip extending from Pittsburg
to the far Xorthw est and as far east as Que
bec, remarked yesterdaj : "It is all iionsense
tosay that business is stagnant. Tam aware
there te no rush, but tho aggregate of sales
of city and suburban property is astonish
ing. I am prepared to show .that thcro is
more doing than there was in the cor
responding time last year. In one district
alone Highland Park transactions within
the last CO days foot up nearly $150,000. All
of these sales have not been reported for
good reasons, but will be in a short time. I
am Interested in two or three of them. The
same is true of other districts- The inquiry
for . property comes from nl) classes of
people. The rich want it for fine mansions
and business stands, and tho less opulent
for modest homes. There is more In this
than the casual observer is likely to dis
cover. It is a reflection of the sound con
dition' and wonderful prosperity of the
city.?
"Old Times" -writes" to.thls .column as fol
lows: "The recent article In The Dispatch
on the decadence of boat 'building in Pitts
burg"brings to my recollection the-time
w'hen"' it was the prlncipal'industry. My
father wns in the business from 185S to 1S74,
during which time 654 steamboats were built
in the Pittsburg'dlstrletC During the samo
period about COO barges were constructed,
besides a great many keel andflatboats. For
nearly TO years Pittsburg waspromlnent for
steamboat bulIdfiuj.'Xowt is practically
a vanished industry Railroad competition
nnd'ncglect oTtlio rivers have des roved it.
If. the Government would do its. duty to
.about one-third of the population of the
conntry Dy improving tue unio river nna
keeping it in navigable, condition, boatbuilding-would
speedily revive. Boats can
bo constructed cheaper here than, at any
other city in tho Ohio Valley, on account of
the cheapness of Iron and other materials
entering Into their composition."
The European war scare over the "seizure"
.of a port-on the .island of Mytelene, by the
'British has subsided. This, with the return
of goldrom Europe, has strengthenedthe
business situation in this country, and rein
forced public confidence. Conditions- arc
bullish, and there are no reactionary symp
toms, -rittsburg has her sails spread to the
favoring breeze and is bowling along at a
good rate of speed. Nothing short of a
nniveisal calamity can put Pittsburg on her
back.

Number of Gains.
' Business on call yesterday wns centeredln,
two stocks Luster and Philadelphia Gas
but a disposition to broaden the field result
ed in placing a good many figures pn t(ie
,board. i The feeling was mixed, being strong
'and weak fin spots, but the latter wnstho
dominant feature.
' It r was expected that Philadelphia Gas
would rally on the announcement that the
heating company matter would be 'settled,
but it-was clipped still more and finished K
below the previous close. There was a good
demnnd-ror It, and over 400" shares changed
hands. -.The attempt to fill orders known to
bo out will doubtless bring about a reaction.
Central Traction and Electric went off
slightly. - .
The best features were Luster and Liberty
National '. Bank, each of which add
ed a good fraction to its credit. The bank is
said to bo dblnp a land ofUce business, and
insiders say tho mining company Is making
money, but they refuse to give figures.
Thorest of the list observed itScustomary
attitude Of- immobility, though there ap
peared, to bo a stronger undercnrrent,w hich

A Complete Bout for the Bears Atchl
' son and Beading the 'Two Largest Feat
ures Bonds Active Also.
New. York, Sept. J7. The stockmarket was
more active to-day than on any other day of
this year, and at the same time again demon
strated its inherent strength by the utter
rout ot the forces engaged in the attempt to
bring about a reaction in prices. The move
ment was,the more significant as tho final
defeat of 'the bears was brought about by
heavy buying . orders . placed . in ..the
market at the right time, which are be
lieved to be for the larger interests affected'
by the'prlces of securitieo, an'd to that extent-there
was Infused more confidence into
the smaller operators on the bull side. ,
The Dillllsh feeling was very marked at
the opening) but at the close. Ut wasrara
pantfand those who talk lower prices aro
to-nlght-ina large minority. The foreign
ers were moderate buyers in tho early trad
ing, respqn.ding to higher figure? from the
other side, and there was an urgent demand
for the long account from domestic opera
tot s.
The dealings In Reading -wero run up to an
extrcmelylatgo figure, belngsecond only to
Atchison, which still retained its lend In
that respect. Xorthw estcrn was another
stock w hich basso long been dormant which
redeiveda sharp awakening, while among
tne specinmqs-wnicn navo inteiy.como into
prominence, Ontario and 'Western, "Kansas
and Texan preferred, Wabash preferred and
some , others were Joined by new stocks
which advanced sharply o large trading.
Among these may be mentioned the MUwau
kce, ake Shore and. Western stocks, and
Peqria, Decatur and Evansville.
Tho transactions - ip the (atc.tradlng were
on an enormous scale, covering of c stocks
being indulged in freely by frightened
shorts, which had tho effect of accelerating
theupward march of values. Tho market
flnallv closed very active and strong at the
higho'st .prices of the day. The final gains
aro generally for .fractions, but Reading -is
np 2?g; Kansas and Texas preferred, :

and Rock Island, Burlington, nnd Wabasii

Peaches and grapes have the precedence in
iruit-lines. Receipts of peaches to-day were
"thftTorgest for the.week. There were about
eight carldads-on; sale. Pancy stock is in
gooddemand at -outside quotations. Grapes
are in supply beyond demand and prices are
a shade lower. In tropical fruit lines lemons
and. oranges are scarce and firm, and bananas
steady Vegetables of all kinds are dull
and. slow. -Tbo top price of potatoes is 50c
peribtfsjiel, and only the Very choicest stock
commands this price. - Supply of creamery
butter Iras; caught up to demand, and mar
kets In this lino are quiet. Tho advanoeNof
last'weck appears toTiave been premature,
arid prospects pow aro that the advance will
be lost. Prices have reached such a height
that buttqrlne. Is coming to the front, and
the consumption of the genuine artlclo has
materially lesset-ed of late. Strictly fresh
eggsjare very firm at quotations.

most excellent, astnot only the breast
of "the mother, but also the milk or
