THE PITTSBURG- DISPATCH, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1891. 11 HEATYKUS OF CATTLE At East Liberty Yards and Prices are Generally Lower. HALF PATTED STEERS VERY DULL. Light Butcher Beeves and Smooth Feeders Slill Steady. SHEEP ANP SWINE AREOXTHE DECLINE Office of PiTTsucna DisrATon. 1 Wednesday, Oct. 21. j Markets opened at East Liberty yards on 3Ionday morning with 140 car loads of cattle on sale, an excess of 20 cars over the pre vious Jlonday. On Tuesday the supplies were reinforced by large additional receipt?, eo that the total number of cattle on sale this week has been above 1G5 car loads, making the run the largest of the season. About one-half of the offerings were from Chicago and Indianapolis, in about equal number from each place. Quality of cattle on sale was a fair average. There were no prime heavy beeves on Kile, as there is no longer a market here for this grade. The week's trade has been very unsatis factory both to shippers and commission men. Buyers were present in fair force, but made the most of their opportunity from iki heavy run, nnd all common and low grade stock had to be sold at a decline of 15 to 30c from last week's prices. Half-fattened coarse steers, weighing from 1,000 to 1,200 lbs., were very hard to sell at the rednoed prices. Good feeders and smooth, tidy butcher beeves of light weight held up close to lat week's prices. Smooth stockera were alf-o in demand at last week's prices. As a result of the heavy run over 20 carloads of eattle were sent on in first hands for want of tatisfactorv offers. Fresh cows and good veal calves were fairly steady at last week's Sheep and Lambs There were close. to SO loads on saie ims wees, or nearly double the number on talc last week and the week before Choice sheep were in light supply and sold readily at about last week's prices. The market for lambs wrs thoroughly demoralized and prices were in general O0c per cwt., below l.T-t week's range. A few loads were thipped on in first hands. The top price of sheep was 55 10 and lambs So 25 and only a few fancy reached these figures. Hogs lleceipts for the week so far have been close to 70 carloads against the same number last week. Markets have declined not less than 75c per cwt. in the last week. Top price this morning was c4 5U(4 jj. Iteceipts at Chicago to-day were 22,000 head, and top urice there was Si 40 per cwt- "With a decline in prices comes a de cided improvement in quality of offerings showing the good effect of the corn crop. A Live Stock Firm's Review. Followiue is the report of the week's work and prices at Libertv by Holme, IJowlen, Briggs & Co.: 'We re port 170 loads of cattle on sale Monday and Tuesdav, which graded in qualitv about same as for oast two months. 1'lentv of common rough grades and but few good quality butchering cattle and good feeders, which are in most demand. The season has advanced too far now for stock steers to bring good prices, and they are sure to meet with low prices the remainder of this fall nnd winter. There were no prime cattle offered, and as we had light export orders, the demand wai very light and prices were generally conceded a strong quarter lower on all grades except good smooth feeders, which were not over 1013c lower.

REPORTS FROM RUSSIA Again Favorably Affect the Trices of All Grains After Several Fluctuations "Wheat Closes at Xearly the Top Price Some Excitement in Oate. CHICAGO Wheat weak and lower early, but the demand proved quite sharp and a reaction soon set in carrying the price up nearly a cent and a quarter from the low point, but all the advance was not bold. There was little in the way of news. Cables opened easier.New York and other domestio markets were lower and line weather was reported in the Xorthwest. The weakness yesterday brought a good deal of long wheat on the market at the start, and the pressure sent prices off fully J.c below tbo c lose lastnight; but the crowd oversold itself, and corn, oats and pork .all developing unusual strength, and good buy ing orders coming in from Xew York arid tlie Xorthwest, wheat strengthened and made a decided rally. The advance, how ever, brought out short sellers, and under free offerings the market weakened and de clined. Then during the last hour a report was circulated that Russia, having alread pro hibited the exportation of rye and" oats, would next extend the prohibition to wheat. On this there was a sharp rally in tho high est point of the day. The market weakened a little on realizing sales after that, but closed at the top. Jiradstreet't report, show ing a decrease of 4,000,000 bushels in the available supply, helped the late advance. December which closed yesterday at94Jc opened at 93,7c. advanced gradu ally to 95c: eased off to P3Jic; spurted up tojjc; reactea ro d;4c, out raineu ana closed strong at 93c. Corn was.a;rain nervously strong, especially tho near-by futures, and pcored an advance of more than lc, nearly nil or whicn it held till the close. Continued light receipts made the shorts nervous and caused a brisk covering demand, while the offerings were limited. The old 'bull clique helped the advance and there was a fair shipping de mand. November started at 49c, sold up to 50c, eased off to 49Jc, became firm and ad vanced to 495fe, at which it closed. Oats showed a great deal of strength due partly to sympathy with corn, but mostly to the confirmation of the report received somo days aso that Russia had prohibited tho fur ther exportation of oats from that countrv. November, which closed j-esterday at 2Si cents, advauced to 29 cents, and closed at 23Ji cents. Hog products, which opened lower, grew strorii: and advanced in sympathy with corn and because of anew ruling by the Board of Pirectors which makes old pork a mer chantable commodity after January 1, as a second grade, though It is not to be deliv erable on contracts unless so specified. The market weakened some during the last half of the session, but the close shows an advan tage over yesterday of 1522 cents on pork; 5g7 cents on lard, and 5i0 cents on ribs.

Banks Said to Be Receiving More Than They Can Disburse. Local funds continue in good supply, with a moderate but steady demand for loans and discounts. Owing to the large proportion of cash sales and close collections thoro Is less pressure on the banks that usual at this sea sou ot the year, and some of them, if not all, are taking in more than they are paying out. A stringent market, therefore, Is about the last thing to be expected. Yesterday's bank clearings were $2,623,244 66 and balances, (507,857 13.

Pittsburg. TEADE OF THE CITY. Information Which Visitors Should Read and Inwardly Digest. THE FEMALE COLLEGE LOCATED. Forecast of What Pittsburg Will Be at the End of Twenty-Five Years. ANOTHER IMPORTANT DEAL IN ACREAGE The report that the Female College peo ple had decided to build on the church lot recently purchased in the Banm plan, was confirmed yesterday by a gentleman having inside information on the subject. Tho ne cessity of having church and college close together, as formerly, has been recognized ali along, but it was not until a few days ago that a majority of the trustees of the former could be brought to give their con sent to dividing their lot for that purpose. The arrangement having been completed, is said to be entirely satisfactory to all con cerned. It will save the college people considerable ready cash, and enable them to begin building operations at once. Ground will soon be broken for the church. A Big Sale of Acretge. Executors of the Louisa G. Kankin estate have sold to S. J. JIcFarren 28 acres, with improvements, in Lower St. Clair township forS45,000. This property adjoins Knox ville borough, with which it is probable it will be incorporated. An Interesting Forecast. Practically all the buildings in this coun try have been erected within 100 years. The few which stand that are more than 100 years old are not enough to ofiset what has been lost of the buildings within that time by fire and other causes of destruction. The buildings in sight, then, represent what is necessary for the comfort and con venience of 65,000,000 people nnd the aggre gate of the building business for 100 years. Assuming that the number "of buildings doubles every 25 years, It is claimed by a leading nuthority on the subject that at least 12,000,000 houses will be erected in this country within the next quarter of a century. The calculation is based on the ratio of increase during the century, and is worthy of acceptance. Should the estimate hold good, Pittsburg will have at the end of the next 25 years 100,000 dwellings and a population of at least 500,000. With such a prospect it is no wonder that owners of real estate, both city and suburban, have exalted views of values. They should not, however, anticipate all ennancement lor the period in question, Dut give buyers a chance to make something on the turn. Movement at Greenaburs;. Greensburg is putting on city airs. The electric street railway is in successlul oper ation, and a contract will soon be let for a complete system of electric lighting. Build ing is active and the houses are of a high class. To enlarge the choice residence dis trict Dr. Townsend's property has been purchased by a syndicate through the agency of Gay, Bair & Lane, plotted and put on the market. It has been named Kenneth Place. Lots are sold with the proviso that no building shall be erected costing less than S2,500, shall be at least 15 feet from the street line, and that all build ing material tliall be brought in from the rear. Plans are being prepared for several handsome dwellings to be erected on this property next year. Paying Off Farm Mortgages. "Western farmers are in better condition, financially, than ever before. From com parative poverty they have risen to afflu ence as a result of large crops and high prices. This will enable them to liquidate or reduce the mortgage indebtedness on their farms. There is no exaggeration in the reports that this year's cash value of the product of many a "Western farm is much greater than the owners would have been glad to sell the farm for a year ago. The disbursement of large sums in the settlement of mortgage indebtedness will react upon all the industries of the country and insnrc a long period of activity. Bnsiness News and Gossip. It is expected that the improvement of Perrysville avenue will begin as soon as the weather settles next spring. The Homestake Mining Company has de clared its usual dividend of $12,500 for Sep tember. Tho most, progressive ward on the North side Is the Tenth. Almost every citizen has some sort of a real estate or building scheme on hand. People living out Second avenue are still clamoring for all-niglit street ear service. It might not pay at first, but would in the long run. The Pacific Mnil Steamship Company has decided to issue $3,000,00.) in bonds to pay for tho construction of new steamer3 for tlie China trade. California avenne is open from Woods' Run to Jack's Run. and street car tracks are down about"half way. Visiting street railway men should not neglect to take in the suburbs. In no other way can they acquire a correct impression of the cityorformanideaoflts rapid transit possibilities. Julius F.

Considerable business was transacted yes terday at the first and third calls, but the second was productive of nothing except quotations. New York wns on a hotter basis and gave clearer indications of a rise than at any previous timo this month. Price changes were too small for extended mention, being, with but one exception, confined to small fractions. The exception was Third National Bank, which was bid up $1 00.

In regard to Philadelphia Gas a broker said: "Acoepting the assurance of the com pany of a supply for some years I think tho stook is a safe purchase at the present price, and that others think tho same thing is shown by the demand." Another broker aired his opinion of street railway consolidation talk in this fashion: "I think Mr. Magee tells the truth when he says there is nothing in It so far as the Duquesne is concerned. That company would hardly have gone to tho heavy ex pense of getting smaller cars if they wero not in tho fight to stay."

The Vanderbllts and the Pittsburg, St. Lonis and Chicago aro tho - Features Among Shares Only One ExceitIo;i, Sngar, to the General Advance. New York, Oct. 21. The stock market to day was again more active and displayed a more decided strong tone than for many days past, the result of the day's opera tions being the lifting of quotations all along the line, while a few stocks show marked gains. Tho chief features of the dealings were the strength in the Vander bllts and the unusual activity and strength In Pittsburg, St. Louis nnd Chicago. The buying of tho Vanderbilts was most aggressive, and New York Central was lilted to 115. or nearly 3 per oent, and while-It did not retain all of its gaiu, only a small per cent was lost. The business dono in the general list was" not of fin unusual character, out it was more evenly aisiriDuieu tiinn usual of late, and the upward movement reached everything, making the final gains verv uniform. Atchison, Erie and St. Paul led in the dealings, but the trading was ex tended toalaiger number of both stocks and bonds than for months, or at least since tho Missouri Pacific dividend trouble first began to have Its influence upon tho market. The opening gains were generally for small fractions, but further advances were made right from the first sales, and while the resistence of the bearish traders com pe led a halt after the first demand from the foreigners was satisfied, the only effect of the hammering was comparative dullness without material concessions from the best figures reached. The purchasing of the Vanderbilts began before tho forenoon was out, and soon after that time the buying of the entire list became most pronounced, everything traded in reaching figures which have not been seen for somo time. The Grangers naturally took tho lead in tho general list, but a few specialties made marked progress, while nothing except Sugar betrayed any weakness whatever. There was some realizing in tho last few minutes, and New York Central retired frac tionally, but the market as a whole closed quiet and strong at or near the best prices of the day. The final advances of note in clude Now Y'ork Central, 2; Pittsburg, St. Louis and Chicago, 1, ana Atchison, Hock Island, St. Paul, Union Pacific and Buffalo, Rochester and Pittsburg, each 1 per cont. The broadening of the market for railroad bonds more than kept pace with tho share list, and this fact was one of the induce ments for many operators to come again Into the market. The number of issues traded in was very large, and among these Atchison incomes was prominent tor activity. The upward movement was also quite uniform, but tho speculative bonds, while monopoliz ing tho activity, failed toadvance with those of a more fcubstnntial character, and among these bonds the upward movement was not so pronounced. The marked gains are few, but the Reading issues were most conspicu ous. The total transactions reached $2,658, 000.

A GLUT OP POTATOES. PRICES IN THIS LINE ISEACHTHELOW ST POINT FOR YEAKS PAST. Choice Butter Scarce and Finn Shell Corn and Choice Hay Are Higher, and Wheat Declining Sugar Quiet and Coffee Steady. OmcE op Pittsbtoo Dispatch, W EDSKSDAT, OCt. 21. J Country Produce Jobbing Prices The supply of potatoes far exceeds demand, and markets are weak. There were not less than 100 carloads in the various rail yards of the city this morning, an equivalent of 60,000 bushels. It is not probable that prices will be again as low this season as right now. For weeks past supply here was not equal to demand, and prices were rela tively higher than at other trade centers. Now" there is a glut and a drop, which will be followed by a reaction and an advance. Grapes arc still in bountiful supply, but prices are well maintained.
