TIIE BEST ALL-AROUND YEAR ON RECORD
Ornci: or Pii-rsncno Dispatch,

"While there has been some improvement
in the iron and steel situation since the be-
ginning ot he month, the improvement
. .
fails to reach the nail trade. Not in tlie
entire history of the trade have nails been
as low as they have been the past three
months. "With st"cl cut nails selling for
51 60 per keg, and wire nails at 1 00, at the
factories, it is difficult tose where the
manufacturer can reap any profit. The ex
pected rite has so far failed to materialize.
Throughout the section, of which Pitts
burg is the trade center, the
lon hitch between carpenters and
contractors in ilie fore part of the year,
is now felt in the curtailment of trade in
builders' hardware lines. No section of the
country hows a greater decline in volume
of trade in hardware lines than this.
IJe eloped Hare Territory.
Our dealers, however, have pushed trade
Hi regions where the strike was not felt,
siml thus in a measure made up for the de
cline at home. So far as Pittsburg nnd the
immediate vicinity are concerned, volume
ofbuitders' hardware and nails handled
this year 'will not be more than one-half
that of last vear.
Said a representative of one of our lead
ing hardware firms: "Our volume of trade
this year is about up to last year's volume,
but there n ere special reasons for this iu
our case, which will not hold good w ith
many dealers. Our trade in Pittsburg has
fallen far below that of last year, or any
recent year We ha c b"en forced to seek
out new fields and puh our goods beyond
the regular lines. As to prices they were
never lower, and in some lines manufact
urers must be playing a losing game, I am
unable to see how the- nail manufacturer can
come out whole at present raUfs."
The Coffca situation.
The Kio coffee market shows a steady
downward inclination' for a week or two
past. A drop of c per lb occurred last
week aud a similar or greater drop is likely
to come anyda... The conditions are all
here for a decline. Visible supply is tully
double what it was thn time a year ago"
Latest reports from Kio places stock there
:it .124,000 bags, against IST.,000 bags at the
same time a ear ago. The visible supply
in New York is reported at 451,!)74 bags,
against 5."i(t,:4i" bags last year at this time,
and 4(0,!Kl bags the previous year.
The total receipts of Kio coffee on the
present crop, up to September 24, have
been 1,120,000 bags, against CG4.O00 bags
ame time last year, and r33,000 bags at the
same time in 18SH. These figures prove the
inimeimtv of this vear's crop, and the cer
tainty of a further drop in prices. The
visible supply of Kio coflee in the United
States, is in round numbers, 1,100,000 bags.
"While rio coffees are' weak and declining,
Java's and Mochas are firm, with a tendency
to higher prices.
Nature's Generosity.
So far as farm and garden products are
concerned the year 1801 is the best all
around year ever known as to yield. The
cereal crops were all safely garnered weeks
ago w ith the exception of corn, and the
September hot wave has placed the corn
crop on hure grouud. Moderate estimates
place the addition to the value of the corn
crop of Wie United States by reason of the
warm September weather "at ?2j,000,000.
On top ot our great crops comes
the news from beyond the sea
that Kastern Europe "will be very
sbort this seasoj in breadstulis. Their loss
will be America's gain, and millions of
money will come to our shores as a conse
quence of the Kuropean shortage. The last
prop has been taken away from the croaker
by the improved prospects of the potato
crop. Not long since there was talk of a
potato rot, but ncv this fear has been ex
ploded and it seems trom the Government
report that we are to have a great yield in
this Hue.
The outlook for the potato crop is a good
one. The Government estimate of condi
tion places it at 14.0 against Im.7 a year ago,
nud 111.5 iu 1688, the year of heaviest pro
duction. The New England Jlomestcad
places the yield at l!l,445,0o3 bushels, a
gain of 49,OO0,OU0 bushels from last year,
but a decrease of 7,000,000 bushels "from
3SSS. "With short crops abroad the outlook
is for fair prices, in spite of the large yield.

riIICAGO-Ixir.nl sentiment in the wheat
pi: was bullish to-day,and it was sufficiently
influential to keep the price above the clos
ing figures of ye-terday throughout tho
session in spite of tho generally beaiish
character of the news rccen ed. The foun
dation for this sentiment appeared to be an
article iu a morning pacer saying that the
Trench Government has agents in this
country commissioned to buy enormous
quantities of wheat and flour. The fact that
the amount of w heat and flour on ocean
passage decreased 1,72s 000 hushels last week
tended to strengthen tho confidence of the
bnlN, and the fact that the rains In the

COSTLY MISTAKES OF BUILDERS.
Local Clubs looking Around for Places for
Their Permanent Homes.
THETKE.XDOP MONET AND SPECULATION
Ijawrenceville will soon have an import
ant addition to its residence capacity. Sir.
Ia O. Brazier yesterday let a contract for a

as possible, so as to have the job completed

Instances of Careless Building.
In building, as much regard should be
had for the future as the present. Many
fine properties are often rendered compara
tively worthless for want of forethought on
the part of the builders. Three or four
years ago several handsome residences were
erected on Hill street, "Wilkinsburg. The
owners appeared to take it for granted that
no change would ever be made in the st-eet.
They made a costly mistake. The borough
council ordered the street to be graded, and
in making the necessary level some of the
houses on the upper side of the street were
left eight or ten feet above grade and those
on the other side as much below. Access
from the front was practically cut off. This
property would not sell to-day for
anything like what it cost" If
the owners had taken the precaution to
obtain the graile before building they would
not have been subjected to this loss and in
convenience. Fifth avenue, above Suiithficld street,
was built up regardless of the possible re
moval of the humpj an oversight, or fanlt,
which may cost a big sum of money some
time. Diamond street affords another il
lustration of carelessness in building. At
Roup a number of fine properties have been
seriously damaged by street improvement,
which the owners ought to have anticipated
and provided against. No one should build
on the theory that his environments will
never be changed. This is an age of pro
gress, the wants and necessities of the peo
ple nre constantly widening, new streets
must be opened wherever and whenever
needed, cost what they may. By keeping
these considerations in view, home founders
would often save trouble and expense to
themselves or their descendants. It is
simply foolish to put up a fine house on the
edge of a narrow street, or where one is
likely to be needed in a few years, and
equally so to pay no attention to the grade.
In building, as in other things, "a stitch
in time saves nine."
After Permanent Homes.
Several of the leading political and social
organizations of the city are on a still hunt
for sites whereon to erect club-houses. The
Columbus Club has almost settled on a site
on Sixth avenue. If this deal has the good
fortune to go through, it will in all proba
bility result in a building which will be an
ornament to the city.
The Americus Club has not abandoned
the idea of putting up a building of its own,
but it is not likely it will make a move in
that direction before next year. One of the
members said a few days ago that they had
had a good offer at Shadyside, which" had
been taken into consideration.

I J ,,e CondlUon of the Local Money
itiux-Kec
The financial situation continues a subject
of nctlve discussion. October, remarks the
.FinanctaZ Chronicle, Is an Important interest
period, nnd the natural disturbance of loans
would offer opportunity for farther artificial
notion by the calling of lonns. Among con
servative bankers, however, such views find
very little support or sympathy. Tho fact
thnt by October 1 at least $3,000,000 of tho
gold now in transit-will have nrrived is con
sidered a protty effectual argument against
tho success of any efforts to manipulate the
money market.
The moral effect of the movement is even
greater than the actual influence of the
millions of specie which nre now arriving
from Europe. The rumored nttempts to
affect rates may be made, bnt are not likely
to succeed.
The local market yestordny was moderate
ly active and firm. There wa9 a fair call for
discounts, and a sufficient supply of funds
to meet it. nnd something over. Kates were
steady at C7 percent. There was practi
cally no difference between enrrenoy nnd
exchange. Bank clearings were $2,103,310 06
and balances $361,847 89.

portant The Situation.
While the market underwent no import
ant changes In conditions or prices yester
day, it was in some respects interesting.
Business was restricted to the second and
third calls. The active properties were
Pittsburg and Birmingham Traction and
Luster.
The market was Interesting from the fact
that the Tractions maintained their prom
inence and that Philadelphia Gas was in a
measure neglected, buyers oppcaring to be
supplied or waiting for n concession. Under
these circumstances the stock declined.
Central Traction and Switch and Signal
lost and Electric gained a fraction. Tho un.
listed department was featureless.
It Is nothing for stocks to advance when
the public is buying ravenously and them
hardly seems to be stocks enough to go
around, but If prices are strongly held when
the heavy reallzlngsalescomo or when some
rude shock is given to the market this shows
a substantial backing nnd a confidence in
holding for the future. This is about the sit-
ntion at this time. Sales:
First call No sales.
Second call 40 Pittsburg Traction at 40,
46 Luster at 1114, S Birmingham Traction at
Third call 105 Luster nt 12J. 8 at 12.

WALL STREET REACTIONARY.
TRADERS IMPROVING AN OPPORTU
NITY ON THE SHORT SIDK.
Bllssonrl Pacific the Center of Attraction A
Sharp Upward Tarn Toward the Closo
suddenly Checked Nearly All Trans
actions Are Among the Leaders.
New York, Sept. 29. Tho stock market was
again of a reactionary temper to-day, but
the declines, whllo they wero mnterlnl In
many stocks, wero entirely the result of tho
operations of tho traders who are now
taking advantage of the absence of organ
ised support or heavy buying by the larger
operators to tnalco a turn on the short side,
nnd to-day they were free sellers of stocks,
oven whllo tho Gould party again were
buyers.
Tho conditions aro all adverse to any
marked reaction In stocks. Missouri Pacific
was still the center of the efforts at depres
sion and it was knocked down to C2o and
closed at a email fraction above Its lowest.
The traders raided the entire list through
out tho day at different times, nnd no reac
tion of note was seen until tho lust hour,
w nen n sharp upward turn wns checked In
tho last few minutes bv n lurthor mid,
which, however, was looked upon as In-
tcnurii to arreci me cpc;,ii,,; in i.nnnon To
morrow. Its suddenness was seen hi tlin
fnct thet Mlwcuri Pacific ivhlohlifi rallied
to d4c, wns forced out to BJJjc.
Tho market gave evidence of haviuu lost
itsbrcatn, andtlio transactions ucro almost
all In the leaders Atchison, Missouri Pa
cific, St. Paul, Burlington, ltock Island and
Union Pacific. The rest of tho list wns
iulet from opening to chwo, and the only
leatui'o of tho low-prlccd stocks was tho
weakness In Hocking Valley nnd Sugar, In
which the losses equal to tho-e In
the leaders woro established. Loudon
housos woro sellers nt tho opening, but
bought stocks lator In the day nt the con
cessions made. Tho stocks which het re
sisted tho dny's pressure wore Luko Shore,
Wheeling and Luko Krio preferred, Bui
llngtoii und a few specialties.
The market closed active nnd weak nt tho
closo to the lowest of tho day. Tluiflnni
losses of note Include: Missouri Pacific, 2J4;
Sugar, 2; Union Pacific and Now England,
lJi; Bock Island, 2; Atchison, lii: Burling
ton and Northern ruclllo piefcneil, 1J. and
others smaller amounts.
Unllroad bonds wero less actlvo than usual
of Into, but tho business was widely dis
tributed and only Atchison Incomes and
Chicago aim Northern Pacific 5i showed
any particular animation. The market
sympathized to some degree with tho weak
ness In the share list, und tho moro actlvo
Issues show losses liom their Inst pules
ns a rule. Thero were many advances,

Country Produce (Jobbing Prices)
At Elgin last week's creamery butter prices
were reaffirmed on Monday, so that there
will be no change in rates this week. It is
much more difficult to raise prices, of
creamery, since oleo has been brought to
the front. The vegetable market is
dull and slow with the situation in favor of
the buyer all nlong the line. Sweet pota
toes are heavy stock at the decline noted
yesterday. Grapes continue in plentiful
supply with markets weak. Choice peaches
are scarce and firm, and it is evident that
their end is near for this season. California
fruits are on gain as domestic peaches are
on wane.
Demand for the former has increased the
the past few days and prices are a shade
higher. Lemons, oranges and uannnns are
also in better demand. Mnlnga lemons nro
expected on the market in the next two
weeks.

of a Itnnaway Boy.
At the meeting of the Board of Managers
of the Humane Society, yesterday, Secre
tary Davidson reported that a letter had
been received from the parents of Delmcr
A. "Weir, the 14-year-old boy who was
recently sent to his home at 918 Madison
avenue, Chicago, by, the society. The boy
had ran off from home, stealing rides on
freight cars as far east as Boston and then
back to Harrisbu'g. At the latter place he
was picked np by the Humane Society and
sent to Pittsburg, when the Humane Society
took charge of him and secured him passage
home. The parents were overjoyed to see
their boy get back safe and go to a great
amount of trouble to praise the Humane
Society for its good work.
The following contributions have been re
ceived during the week: Mrs. George "Wil

A few hasty words before breakfast
sjpoils the entire day.
It may be you can see in the above
a decided misunderstanding between
the twain that should be as one.
Do you ever arise with an extremely
bad taste in your mouth ? It maybe
you are severely constipated, troubled
with indigestion.
No appetite for breakfast. Feel
hot and flushed. You feel either low
spirited, or you display a nasty tem
per. Destroys the good feeling of
your home.
These aie different ways that Na
ture has to tell you that she has been
outraged.
Nature gives you fair notice that
she requires assistance.
Read what the renowned Chemist,
Baron von Liebig, says:
"It is more than probabje that tho
main specific and most important ac
tion of Carlsbad Spiudel Salts, the
so-called solvent and liquifying action
is dependent upon the alkaline con
stituent We know the bile to be a
saponaceous, that is an alkaline, com
bination; and that the physiological
use of the bile is to free the system
from its superfluous fats. Now, what
Nature accomplishes in its normal
state, we produce artificially by the
use of Carlsbad Sprudel Salts."
This remedy is sovereign. It has
been used in its original shape by
emperors, kings, statesmen, poets,
etc., for 500 years. Every drugstore
has them. The genuine has the sig
nature of "Eisner & Mendelson Co.,
Sole Agents, New York," on the bot
tle. Begin to use them to-day.
Pleasant to take.
