THE DRIFT OF TRADE. Activity Expected Until After Approaching Holidays. the KO PROSPECT OF A HARD COAL WAR An Airy Boom Etrikas the Tractions Which Maj Prove Enduring. OFFICE AKD STREET XEWS AND GOSSIP Business Is moving along so quietly tnd smoothly that some think it is dull. This is a mistake. The Clearing ITouso ex changes throughout the country are only slightly behind those of the same period last year, and are ahead of 1889. The effects of the Maverick Bank failure seem to have reached their widest limits and but one ob scure institution has been driven to the wall. All existing troubles and none of them ore serious are of a temporary nature. The outlook is undimmed by a single cloud. An improvement in nearly all lines of trade is confidently expected from this time until after the holidays. "o Coal 'War In Sight. Report of an impending hard coal war appear to be without foundation. The trade is said to be in better condition than for several years past. The only trouble is that the demand is greater than the supply. It is reported that the Heading Company will meet this difficulty by increasing its output. This company "owns 102,000 acres of hard coal lands, with 2,450,000,000 tons of marketable coal still in the bowels of the earth. The approaching completion of the Port Beading extension of the Heading Railroad and of the new line which it is building to enable it to carry out its con tract with Coxe Brothers & Co., both of uhioh will add largely to its facilities for transporting and handling coal, is likely to be followed by Important changes in the anthracite coal "true. A Scramble for Commission. Real estate brokers in Chicago must be "hard up" for business, to judge from the following statement of a business man of that city. They had better come to Titts bure where realty is an active commodity: "In cases where a single firm has a piece of propertv for sale it would be satisfactory to all parties to have a single sign giving" in formation as to the control oi the lot. The wholesale covering of lots along prominent drives is a mistaki, both from the stand point of expense ana from an esthetic standpoint. It is ridiculous to see a single 25-foot lot with five or six signs on it direct ing the attention of the public to its sale by as many real estate firms. This is con futing to buyers, besides leading outsiders to the belief that a desperate effort is being made to sell the property indicated. Signs undoubtedly attract attention to property oriered for sale, but do not seem to attract the class of people who buy. A the sys tem of placing signs is now carried on I think it is detrimental rather than beneficial to the real estate business." Business News and Gossip. The sale of a fine residence propert the other day was brought about hy a moder ate concession by the owner. This works well every time. There is good prospect that a first-class stone residence ill be erected near the railroad, on Penn avenue, "Wilkinsburg.

The news of the day was all favorable. There was not in any nart of the day am important pressure to sell, although con siderable selling by the foreigners and trad ers gave the opening a weak appearance, and the suspicion was uttered that the bears were up to the old trick of employing arbi trage brokers to sell stocks in order to buy in under cover. The ruinors of trouble in the anthracite coal trade v. ere still circulated, but a short interest of some magnitude was developed in tho Coil slnrc and further selling was fiightencd off, resulting In the development of a considerable demand for those shares at adtnncing prices, and as their losses have been vcrv material In the last few days their gains to-day at ere proportionate.

North ern Pacific preferred, nlso, displayed marked strength after its early weakness. The market opened lower but rallied im mediately, and prices rose slowly but steadily throughout the session, no set-back ot any kind occurring, and the upward movement hecaino more pionounccd In the last hour tthen tho smiillcr shorts came in to cover in earnest.

Domestic Emits Nearly Over Game and Oysters to the Front. At tho Diamond Market fruit and vege table stalls, the uniform testimony is that markets have been unusually quiet for the week past. Prices are practically as thoy were a week ago. With the exceptions of grapes and ijpples, domestic fruits are things of tho past, and the grapes coming In of lato suffer from the effects of November frosts, and are In small demand. Bananas are mostly in the condition of grapes, a largo propor tion of the late arrivals being frosted. Fall vegetables are a shade lower than last week in a jobbing way. but the reduction lias not been sufficient to make any im pression on retail marxets. r-oiatoes nave not been so low for years as at the present time. The difference in price between now and a year ago is equivalent to Jl a bushel. Poultry and dairy products are the same in price as last Saturday. Fresh eggs area shade higher, the supply in this line being very short of late. Eastern fish are not in supply equal to demand owing to heavy storms on the Atlantic the past few days. Select oysters are also in limited supply. Demand for oysters shows improvement, bnt prices are unchanged. Florists report a better trade this weelc than last.

The hope of commission men is that a cold snap will soon appear, and as a result more active markets. The supply of potatoes again exceeds demand, and prices are a shade lower. Top price on track is 40c per bushel, and most of sales tho past day or two have been 4c to 5c be low this figure. From store the top price is 45c per bushel. Sweet potatoes, turnips and cabbage are in the same boat, the-move-ment being slow and situation in favor of buyers. Live poultry is still plenty and markets are barely steady. Fresh nearby egtjs are in scant supply, and outside prices are easily had. Cold storage stock is not so actite. Dairy products are moving slowly at former prices. BrTTZB Creamery.

CHICAGO The wbeat market was un usually settled to-dav, clue, however, not so much to external influences and reports as to blunders of one of the posting clerks. After the various bull and bear reports Had been coming; in for some time and exerting their contradictory influences, somo Russian crop flijures, purporting to come from nn English journal, tvore posted. To the sur prise of all these figures showed the Kussian crop of wheat, with other cereals, to be ljreely in excess of last year's crops. For afew minutes everybody seemed to want to sell at once, and, of course, a sharp break in nrices followed, the market declining- 11c, or to the lowest point in tlio day. A second calculation showed that tlio flguics at first presented were wrong, making; tho vlclds smaller all around than lat vear, and a partial recovery of the early decline followed. English cables were stronger, Liverpool beinjr quoted 54d higher and London unchanged. Continental markets were weaker, Berlin being; Vi.

Tho market struck bottom at SOJc for December, and 3!31c for May. The opening prices were Bo4o and 32gC re spectively. There was a reaction from tho low point to SOJc for December und 3232c for May. caused by the postinsr of the cor rected Russian ieport and omc of tho early sellers buying in. The market closed steady at 30JJc for December, and 3132o for May. Trading was without particular feature in the provision pit, and prices were without much change. The market was easier in sympathy with the decline in wheat and com, but recovered somo toward tbo end and left off at 11 slight improvement in yes terday's final quotations.

The Common Stock U entitled to the en tire profits of tho business ench year after the debenture Interest and 8 per cent divi dend on the preferred stock havo been paid. These fixed charges amount to $102,860, while the average yearly profit for the past nine years has never been less than four times this amount, and for the last two years has been nearly five. The following facts may be mentioned among the 'many favorable features con nected with the business of H. II. Warner & Co., Limited. It is the largest house of its kind in the .world, its preparations being sold by nearly 1,000,000 druggists, chemists, grocers, and general store dealers in almost every civil ized country on the globe. The widespread popularity of these preparations is the best evidence of their merits. Tho business of the Company is virtually a monopoly, consisting as it does of the manu facture of specialties, the trade names nnd marks of which nre secured and registered in all the principal countries of the world, and are tho property of the Company for ever. The Company has no liability beyordits Debentures, originally amounting to $727,000, but reduced during the post year to $121,500, nnd the current debt Incident to all large concerns. The enterprise Is not a "one-man busi ness." Although still under the manage ment of tb& man who started and madolt such a wonderful success, there is plenty of material la the cmpldy oi the Company to continue tho business successfully should any unforseen accident change that man agement. As the business is "agoing concern," par ing enormous dividends, shareholders will receive an almost immediate return from their investment. Tho Company has returned to its common shareholders during the last two years 35 per cent, of their Invested capital, that is to say, for every $100 invested they have re( ceived$35in dividends, besides having tho value of their shares increased by the can cellation of nearly one-half tho Company's Debentures, and the accumulation of a re serve. The Statement of profits, both before and since capitalization, as given elsewhere in this prospectus, shows that the business is a E regressive one; and It is believed that tho IUlUre WILL aillfw eveu n,j;j mvjwiavu profits from tho fact that tho European busi ness is growing rapidly. The future earning power of the business is assured by the fact that the majority of the Common Stock is held by tho men who originated it, and under whose careful man agement It hus been so successful in tho past. NATURE OF THE BUSINESS. The business of II. H. Warner & Co., Lim ited, consists of the manufacture of proprie tary medicine and preparations, known as Warner's "Safe" Remedies and Warner's "Safe" Yeast, and was started Dy tue lion. H. II. Warner at Rochester, N. Y in IfcTO. Offices and Laboratories aro established in Rochester, N. It., Toionto, Canada, London, England, Frankfort-on-the-Main, Germany, Kreuzllngcn. Switzerland, Melbourne, Aus tralia, and Dunedin, New Zealand. The es tablishment of the offices and laboratories outside of Rochester, N. Y was rendered necessary owing to the enormous Increase or the business and the widesptead demand for tho preparations. PROPERTY CONVEYED. Tho price paid by the Company for tho entire business as on July 31, 1889, including the good will, trado marks in all principal countries nd which are perpetual, piescrip tions nnd recipes, real estate and leasehold properties and buildings in America and elsewhere, fixed ana movable plant and ma chinery at Rochestcrand the different brunch houses, cashin hands and at banks, tlio stocks in trade (consisting ot wholly and partly manufactured stock), raw mnterlal and ad vertising matter, furniture and all property used in connection with tho business in all parts of tho world, together with the benefits of all cnrient contracts entered into by Mr. Warner in relation thereto, was $3,335,000. Since that time the increase of business and enlarged earning capacity of the concern havo added largely to the value ol tho prop erty. EARNINGS BEFORE CAPITALIZATION.

During this period the lowest annual net profit mada in any one year was $272,712 74, while the profits of the last two; years prior to the capitalization of the busM ness were the largest in its history, with tho exception of those for one year. The total net profits for the seven years exceeded THREE JUL LIONS OF DOLLARS. PRO FITS SINCE CAPITALIZATION. Tho success of the business since itscapf tallzation has been enormous. The first year's trading of the English Company, af ter providing for the 6 per cent Interest or the Debentures, resulted in a return to tbe shareholders of a dividend of 8 per cent on the Preferred Stock and 17 per cent on tho Common Stock, besides placing to reserve: $218,230 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 tha Debentures and dividends of 8 per cent on tho Preferred Stock and 17 per cent on tho Common Stock, besides tho cancellation of $306,000 of Debentures and the carrying for--ward to next year of $100,000 as undivided profit. Had the Director- not thought itwbo to cancel this large nnmber of Debentures, a dividend of 33 per cent could have been, paid on the Common Stock, besides carrying lorward the $100,000 as undivided profits. The summarization of the foregoing snows that the profits of the business, during the past two years, have been sufficient to enable the Directors to pay back to tho shareholders $749 323, pay the interest on its Debentures (amounting to $63,937), retire and cancel over fCOO.OOO worth of tho same, and carry to the reserve fund over $1C0,000 a showing -without parallel In the history of industrial enterprises. PROSPECT. The business of the Companv at present 1 In a lr.ost prosperous condition, and 1$ steadily improving. This is especially so irt ' Great Britain and the Continent. Daring tha I last year a branch wns opened in Switzer and, which has already given a satisfactory return for the monev invested. The Ger man and English branches show a large in crease in profit and a reduction in working expenses oyer previous years, and as an evu dence of the prosperity of all branches its may be stated that thcaverage yearly profits of the Australian honso alone, since the; capitalization of the business, has been suf ficient to pay the whole of the Debentura interest, as well as 8 per cent, per annum on, the Preferred Stock. The profits of tho other branches, Including tho United States, consequently, can be applied to paying divl dends on the Common Stock. Arrange ments are now being perfected to introduce these preparations into France, Belgium, and other Continental countries, where tbo field Is equally as promising; and while tha business in Europe Is slower in. developing1 than In this country, it is nt the same tlmo far more profitable and permanent when es-. tablished. The reduced cost of production and cheap advertising rates make the profits greater, whilo the conservatism ot tho people, although difficult to overcome at tha outset, soon develops into a confidenca' which makes their patronage constant and j durable. j PREFERRED STOCK. The 8 per cent Cumulative, Preferred, Stock of this Company, of which 2,000 share! ! onlv are offered lor subscription, Is a safe, high-class security, affording an assured rate of Interest, worthy tho attention of tha I most conservative investor.
