They Cansc Nnmerons and Bather Violent Fluctuations in the Wheat Pit, but the Chilly Winds or November Give the Dears the Advantage at last. CHICAGO The wheat market to-day was characterized by two diametrically oppos ing influences, which were at work from the opening to close, and one of which was re sponsible for everv fluctuation. The bull in fluence was the cold and snowy weather in tho Northwest, and the bear influence was lower cables and generally depressing re ports from European markets. Encli of these predominating influences controlled the market in turn, but the cool breezes that whistled through the exchange were nearer home, and in the end domestic influences prevailed and advances ruled. A ccneral breeze Just at this time would be destruc tion to the sprouting crop in the wheat belt, and Government weather reports indicated that this freeze might come. Receipts continue quite large, and stocks are incieasinr: both in this country and abroad. Jiradstrceft reported an incretse in the visible supply of 3,883,000 bushels on both coasts, and on this the market sold off a fraction. The openinsr was unsettled, and prices soon advanced 5flo, then eased off sonic but held quite Ann and closed about Jfg7c higher than yesterday. The opening price lor November corn was from 5SC33iCt the lower quotation being universally bid and little sold under the higher of tl ese two points. There was a quiet decline to 51Jjc a little later, after whlc'i the pric-5 incl ned to advance, al thouch having several sharp reactions, to near the open'-.-g figures. Near tho close it weakened neai.i and closed at S3Vc after selling at 54Vc. Tear opened at 46vc, sold as high as 46jo for n moment and closed at 4GJ.c: May, irora 43Je. nnd 43Ko near the opening, advanced to 43Jc and closed at !3c.

CITY REAL ESTATE. Improvement in the Demand for High-Class Residence Property. W SPECULATION IN THE MAEKET. A Pittsburg Capitalist Makes a Handsome Investment at Latrooe. HIGHER VALUES ON CARSON STREET "WTnle nothing especially new in the real estate market has occurred so far this week, it may be noted as an interesting fact that a good demand hos sprung up within the past month or two for high-class residence property. Men who can afford to pay fancy prices for ground upon which to build homes are multiplying in Pittsburg. This is a feature of the situation that is too often overlooked in forecasting the trend of values. With this kind of backing it is im possible for the market to react. The pros pect is that this demand will increase as plethoric pocketbooks become more numer ous. Another fact worthy of notice is that there is practically no speculation in the market, buying being almost entirely for investment and use. These are solid fea tures, with which no one cau fairly find fault. A New Man at the Helm. Quite an important event with the Bridgewater Gas Company occurred at the recent meeting of the company at the office of "Whitney & Stevenson, of which this is the first announcement to the public Hon. Henry Hiee, who had long and efficiently served the company as their President, re signed,anu3Icrritt Greene was unanimously selected in his place. Mr. Greene is secre tary and general mannger of the Pittsburg Company, the concern which owns the various water works plants of the Beaver Valley, and is identified with various enter prises" connected with the new town of Ell wood. His business experience will make him a valuable acquisition to the Bridge water company. Carson Street Owners Bullish. The quantity of West Carson street prop erty on the market is limited. Owners are holding back with the expectation of an advance to follow the introduction of rapid transit. Occasionally, however, a transac tion occurs James "W. Drape & Co. sold No. 144 on that part of the great Southside artery, lot 25x250, with two dwellings and outbuildings for $10,000. This is at the rate of S400 a foot front not a fancy figure when the depth of the lot is considered. Railroads In Clover. Big railroad earnings more than counter balance the "small afflictions of the passing hour." In the first week of October the roads reporting made a 6.20 per cent better showing this vear than la6t; in the second week this had increased to 6.82 per cent, in tne tniru weelc to lU.Sb and in the last week: the improvement shown was represented by the figures 10.67 per cent. In the last mentioned period only 47 roads reported, while the reports of the previous weeks ex hibited the earnings of from 82 to 85 roads, yet the 47 roads make a better showing than the 88 roads bv ?1,500,000. These gains show that the railroads are beginning to ob tain their share ot the rewards of the har vest. Pittsburg Capital 1 Latrobe. Latrobe has caught the spirit of improve ment, and progress is the order of the day. Two or three manufacturing concerns have plants under way and others are talked of. The streets are being giaded preparatory to paving. Mr. E. H. Watkins went up there about two weeks ago and purchased 26 ncres, paying 81,000 an acre. He has since sold between ?8,000 and 510,000 worth of lots. This property will be extensively improved next year. Business News and Gossip, An addition to Kno'xville borough will be laid out next spring. The growth of that place is rapid and steady. Stone houses have become a feature of the East End. Plans are under way for a large number next year. They are also popular on Perrysville avenue. Official estimates have it that the increase in the value of the year's agricultural products over last year's will not be less than 5700,000,000. One of the novelties in the new Ferguson building will be a barber shop on the eighth floor. From its elevation this will necessar ily be a high-class place. The dividend declared last week by the Enterprise Mining Company will amount to $250,000. Comptroller Lacey thinks the Maverick Bank will pay depositors about 85 per cent. The Investigator says: "In Southwestern Pennsylvania the aim of the petroleum producers would seem to be to rob the earth as quickly as possible. The McDonald pool has furnished wells lhat challange the supremacy of the mighty 'fountains' of the Baku field. It dwarfs Cherry Grove almost to insignificance." There is some tall talk of a dividend on People's Pipeage. There is probably something in it. At thelast call yesterday 16f was bid for Birmingham Traction. It was offered at K'A. Ilea Bros & Co. yesterday sold 510,000 Dnquesne Traction bonds at 90. In regard to the statement that the Splnne property is too small for hotel purposes, in vestigation shows that it has a frontage of 120 feet on Fifth avenue and a triangular depth of 120, with 45 feet on Smithfield street. The frontage on this street could be increased by the purchase of the Murdoch and Mellpn'properties, about 60 feet. This would afford sufficient room for a first-class hotel, and overcomes the objection that the site is too restricted for this purpose. The annual meeting of the Fidelity Title and Trust Company will be held to-day. A counterfeit on the 510 United States note, Webster head, series of 1880, has been detected at the United States Sub-Treasury at San Francisco. Eight permits were taken out yesterday for the same number of improvements,all ot small value, ranging from ?1,400 to 150, the total being estimated at ?5,300. Stove rents in Realty. John IC. Ewing & Co. sold for Miss S. Mc Intyre to Benjamin Knam a vacant lot, 3jx 120, on Mclntyre street, Tenth ward, Alle gheny, for$350. Black & Baird sold to John Moriarlty lot No. 40 in tho Adam Rowplan.Twenty-second wnrd, fronting 40 feet on Forbes avenue and extending back 91 feet, for $574 75. W. A. Hcvron & Sons sold a downtown rcs'dence on Locust street, near Miltenber gor, a modern brick house of nine rooms, lot 26 feet front, to a prominent business man for $5,700. Tho Burrell Improvement Company report the following sale of lots at. Kensington: Thomas Home. Natrona, Pa., lots 32 and 33, block 9, for $977 50; Philip Murphy, Pitts hunr.

A Good Demand for Choice Goods, but Holders Unwilling to Accept the Figures A Number of Good Features and No Bad Ones. There were no marked features in the stock market yesterday, hero or elsewhere. The feeling was bullish, but trading was light. Snles were bunched, all being made at the second call. Thero were 15 shares of Pleas ant Vallev at 2 10 Philadelphia Gas at IVi and 35 at 11. There was a good dis position to buy at the other calls, but goods were beyond tlie scope of orders. Of the narural gusse's Philadelphia was steady and Wheeling liigher. Citizens' Tract ion was bid up a fraction. Pleasant Valley wus also a little firmer. Pittsburg was a shade weaker. Duqnesne manifested an im proving tendency. Electric improved its position somes hat on report of sales in Bos ton. An offer was made to buy or sell 100 shares at 11. Airbrake closeda point bet tor than the opening. There was scarcely any change in the rest of the list. Bids and asking prices at each call are given in the following table: first second third,, exchange call. call. call, stock.

THE VIGOR OF TUESDAY IN STOCKS LACKING YESTERDAY. Prices Hold Their Own and a Few Small Gains Made Northern Pacific Preferred the Only Weak Point Advances In Chicago Gas, Reading nnd Sugar. NkwYoiut, Nov. 11 The stock market to day lacked the vigor and snap of that) of yes terday, and there was not only less business, but the movements, aside from those in a very few stocks, were devoid of Interest and were confined within the narrowest limits. The general tone was hardly more than firm, nnd while a few material gains were made, they were the exception and not the rule. Tho foreign situation remains practically unchanged. Domestic affairs were uniformly favorable to liigher figuies and the crop re port was very favorably received. The buy ing power, however, incked the very efll cent support of the shorts, and while there was still a great deal of that kind of buying it had ceased to have tho effect it had yes terday. Western operators were most prom inent in the buying" lino, and Chicago Gas and Union Pacific showed the sido taken by this interest. There was only one really weak point in tho list, Noithern Pacific preferred, but the efforts to get that stock down were most ap parent, and with the cessation of the pressure it recovered handsomely. Tbe market as n lule, was unsettled and showed a nariowing tendency, although the trans actions reached fully as large a number of stocks as on any day recently. The general list, however, failed to show any life and the interest in the market was entirely monopo lized by a few shares. The foreigners disappointed the bulls in that they wero sellers for a time in the fore noon, and London prices wero lower this morning, encouraging renewed sales by the bears, while some selling to realize made a feverish and irregular market foil some time after the opening. The strength of the gen eral list then became apparent, but the ad vances were all small aside from those in Chicago Gas, Reading. Sugar andsome of tho low priced and inactive stocks. After the first half hour the 'activity died away, and with the cessation of tho early demand a drooping tendency appeared, which, how ever, mnde losses only in one or two impor tant cases. The afternoon saw a renewal of the cover ing movement, and especially in the late dealings marked strength was shown, Mis souri Pacific becoming one of the features at this time, but its flnnl improvement was fractional only. The market filially closed quiet but generally firm at small gains for the day, but tbe only advantages of note were 1J each in Union Pacific and Chicago Gas. Railroad bonds, even more than stocks, showed the falling off of interest trom tho evening up of contracts during the last two days, and business fell away to $1,049,000. The decrease was naturally chiefly among the speculative issues, and Atchison in comes was the oi.lv really netive bond, though at one time Texas Pacific 2nds were largely traded in. Tho same lack of move ment as in the General stock list was notice able, and the final changes arc in all cases for fractional amounts only, both the active issues fluctuating within a rango of only percent. The market was barely firm, and remained without feature.

Wilson Cooley, Blackstone Block, Phconlx Building, Hartford, Conn. From Whom Prospectuses and Blank The 10,000 shares of Common Stock offered for subscription are fully paid and non assessable. During the past two years divi dends of 17K per cent per annum have been paid upoi the stock, and for the last fiscal year, ending July 31, 1801, 'over 35 per cent could have been paid had tho directors not called in and canceled $306,000 worth of tho debentures of the Company. The Common Stock is entitled to the en tire profits of the business each year after the debenture interest nnd 8 per cent divi dend on the preferred stock have been paid. These fixed charges amount to$lC2,860, while tho average yearly profit for tbelpast nine years has never been less than lour times this nmount, and for the last two years has been nearly five. The following facts may bo mentioned among the many favorable features con nected with tho business of II. II. Warner & Co., Limited. It Is tne largest house of its kind in the world, its pi eparations being sold by nearly 1,000,000 druggists, chemists, grocers, and feneral store dealers in almost every civil zed country on the globe. The widespread popularity of these preparations is the best eviuence 01 ineirmcms. The business of the Company is virtually a monopoly, consisting as it does of the manu facture of specialties, tbe trade names and marks of which are secured and registered in ail the principal countries of the world, und are the property of the Company for ever. The Company has no liability beyond Us Debentures, originally amounting to $727,000, but reduced during the past year to $421,500, and the current debt incident to all large concerns. The enterprise is not a "one-man busi ness." Although still under the manage ment of the man who started and made it such a wonderful success, there is plenty of material in the employ 01 the Company to continue the business successfully should any unrorseen accident; cnange mat man agement. As the business is "a going concern," pay ing enormous dividends, shareholders will receive an almost immediate return from their investments. The Company has returned to its common shareholders during the last two years 35 per cent, of their invested capital, that is to say, for everv $100 invested they have re ceived $35 in "dividend", besides having tho value of their shares increased by the can cellation of nearly one-half the Company's Debentures, and the accumulation of a re serve. TheSiatement of profits, both before and since capitalization, as given elsewhere in this prospectus, shows that the business is a progressive one; and it is believed that the luture will show even largely increased profits from tbe fact that the European busi ness is growing rapidly. The future earning power of the business is assured by the face that the majority of the Common Stock is held by the men who originated it, and under whose carefnl man agement it has been so successful in the past. NATURE OF THE BUSINESS. The business of H. II. Warner & Co., Lim ited, consists of the manufacture of proprie tary medicines ana preparations. Known as Warner's "Safe" Remedies and Warner's "Safe" Yeast, and was started by the lion. II. II. Warner at Rochester, N. Y., in 1S79. unices and Laboratories aro established in Rochester, N. Y., Toronto, Canada, London, England, Frank fort-on-the-Main, Germany, Kreuziingen, Switzerland, Melbourne, Aus tralia, nnd Duncdin, New Zealand. The es tablishment of the offices nnd laboratories outside of Rochester, N. Y.. was rendered necessary owing to tbe enormous increase 01 the business und the widespread demand for the preparations. PROPERTY CONVEYED. The prico paid by the Company for tbe entire business as on July 31, 1839, including the good will, trade 'marks in all principal countries nnd which are perpetual, prescrip tions and recipes, real estate and leasehold properties and buildings in America and elsewhere, fixed ana movable plant and ina chineryatKocliesterandthediirercnt branch houses, cash in hands and at banks, thestocks in trade (consisting ot wholly and partly manufactured stock), raw material and ad vertising matter, furniture and all property used in connection with tho business in ail parts of the world, together with the benefits or all current contracts entered into by Mr. Warner in relation theroto, was $3,395,000. Since that time the increase of business and enlarged earning capacity of the concern have added largely to tho value ot the prop erty. EARNINGS BEFORE CAPITALIZATION. Prior to its capitalization and organiza tion as an English Company in November, 18S9, the business was thoroughly exam ined by English accountants. The real es tate and plant were valued by competent nppiaisers, and the past history of the busi ness, especially in tho way of profits, was subjected to the most rigid scrutiny. Ac cording to the certified s atement made by these accountants, the average yearly profit Of tbe UNITED SI ATE IlUslNKSS ALONE for the seven years prior to its capitaliza tion was sufficient to pay 6 per cent in- afiBI y3s:tf S&$3?S? sMsl s-jjfi mmmm&si!: piirifvtTe !-S f ftVWi (.- ?.tii.3JETHfr;?3x vf S?

During this period the lowest annual net profit made in any one year was $272,742 74, while the profit of the last two years prior to the capitalization of the busi ness were the largest in its history, with the exception of those for ono year. The total net profits for the seven years oxceeded THREE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS. PROFITS SINCE CAPITALIZATION. The successor the business since its capi talization has been enormous. Tbe first year's trading of the English Company, af ter providing for the "6 per cent interest on the Debentures, resulted in a return to the shareholders of a dividend of 8 per cent on the Preferred Stock and 17J per cent on tho Common Stock, besides placing to reserve $218,250 and carrying forward to next year's account $62,419. For the second fiscal year (ending July 31, 1891,) 6 per cent interest was paid on the Debentures and dividends or 8 per cent on the Preferred Stock and 17j per cent on the Common Stock, besides the cancellation of $306,000 of Debentures and the carrying for ward to next year or $100,000 as undivided profit. Had the Directors not thought it wise to cancel this large number of Debentures, a dividend of 33 por ceht conld have been paid on the Common Stock, besides carrying lorward the $100,000 as undivided profits. The summarization of the foregoing shows that the profits of the business, during the past two years; have been sufficient to enable tbe Directors to pay back to tho shareholders $749,325, pay the Interest on its Debentures (amonn ting to $63,937), re tire and cancel over $300,000 worth of the same, and carry to the reserve fund over $100,003 a showing withunt parallel in tho history of industrial enterprises. FRC-lrECTS. The business of the Company at present is) in a most prosperous condition, and is steadily improving. This Is especially so in Great Britain and the Continent. During tho past year a branch was opened in Switzer land, which has already given a satisfactory retnrn tor the money invested. Tho Ger man and English branches show a large in crease in profit and a reduction in working expenses over previous years, and as an evi dence or the prosperity or all branches it may be stated that theavcrageyearlyproflts of the Australian bouse alone, since tho capitalization or the business, has been suf ficient to pay the whole of the Debenture Interest, as well as 8 per cent, uer annum on the Preferred Stock. The profits of tho other branches, including the United States, consequently, can be applied to paving divi dends on the Common Stock. "Arrange ments are now being perfected to introduce these preparations into France, Belgium, and other Continental countries, where the field is equally as promising; and while the business in Europe is slower in developing than in this country, it is at the same time far more crofltablc and permanent when es-, tablished. The reduced cost of production and cheap ndvertisiugratesmake the profits greater, while the conservatism ot tha people, although difficult to overcome at the outset, soon develops into a confidence which makes their patronage constant and' durable. PREFERRED STOCK. The 8 per cent Cumulative. Preferred Stock of thl Company, of which 2,000 shares only are oirered lor subscription, is a safe, high-class security, affording an assured rate of Interest, worthy tha attention of tho most conservative investor.
