Pittslurg ow Seventh in Clearing IIonsB Eeturns, a Good Omen. EETIEWS COYERIXG ALL TUG FIELD JTPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TITS DISrATCIM Xew York, Jan. 22. Special telegrams to Sradstrat's point to a few evidences of improvement in general trade. At the West cold, and at times stormy, weather served to stimulate further demand for stocks of winter goods, and some were cleared out. In other respects the storm's influence was not favorable, it serving to check trade, notably at Baltimore, Cincin nati and Pittsburg. Inability of Southern planters to make the customary financial arrangements at this season iith the usual facility, is re ported a a factor ia the state of trade in several directions, although Galveston an nounces some improvement in business, notwithstanding the low price of cotton and slow collections. At Omaha, Chicago, St. Joseph and Kansas City reports are of an improving demand, notably for boots and shoes and staple drysoods, with hard ware not showing as much interest as ex pected at this time. o Gnln In Coal, Iron and Steel. Leather is firmer at Boston, but dull else where. Lumber, tobacco, petroleum, an thracite coal, iron and steel drag along as for weeks past with no tangible gain in the demand. Business failures in the United States this week number 405, against 379 last week and 357 in the third veek of January, 1891. More failures took place in the United Slates in 1S91, primarily because of lack of capital and financial stringency, than in 1890, and ihe number traceable to irnud was more than doubled. Only one-half as many tailed from outside speculation as in 1890. For 11 months of 1891 the net earnings of Itading railroads throughout the country increased G.4 per cent as contrasted wtlta like pctiod in 1S90, while the gain in sross earnings for the like r.ortiun of 1891 was only 4 per cent. The Grangers, Pacifies and" Southern railways led in the order named with the creator percentages of in crease of net earnings. The total of hank clearings reported to Jiradstreet' for 57 cities this 'noek, is ?1,290, 169,82.', or 12.3 per cent more than in the like week last year. Vfco!, Cotton aad Drjooils. "Wool is quiet, users waiting for the next London rale to fix prices. It looks as if America ould not be as fully supplied with ioreijjn wools in 1S9J as last year.

At the fame time the warlike rumors produced early in the week caused more or less liquidation, which was accelerated by the alleged dan ger of the withdrawal of the Missouri Pa cific lroui the Western Traffic Association. Hears Active in Stocks. Bearish pressure accompanied and aggra vated the movement, though it vr-n notice able that fairly large buyingpppearedat the lower leel of prices, and the market, though still lacking a decided tendency, is firm. The Anthracite Coal stocks have been the subject of much activity, and dis play strength based on the probable settle ment of the allotment of production and on alleged "deals" involving the control of the Poughkecpsic bridge The bond msreet is firm t ith a brsk de mand. The Xew York money market is oversupplied with loanable funds, and rates have yielded stiil further. Foreign ex change, however, continues abnorna!ly firm, notwithstanding a reduction of the Bauk of Bnsrland rate and a fair supply of commercial dralts against grain and provi sion shipments. Eiports of wheat this week, including flour as whcat,from both coasts of the United States.as reported by mail and wire to Mrad slreel'x, equal 4.522.219 bushels, an increase of about 230,000 bushels as compared with last week. Indian corn exports remain the feature, villi shipments aggregating over 2,800,000 bushels within six davs as com pared with 3,321.000 bushels the week be fore. Exports of oats and rjc remain ct unimportant porportions after their brief prominence a month ago. XI. V.. Dun Jt Co.s Optimistic Review. B. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review says: ltcr-orts from every part or the country exprcr-s even preatcr confidence tlian beforo in the piospects for trade, while in some lines definite, though gradual, improvement is already seen. Humors or coming war ha c dm ing tho ji-t week not had sub stance enough to affect money markets or trade in the least. The markets lor staple products have been undisturbed by speculation, which is heldin check by enormous supplies. Wheat ad vanced i cents, and receipts nt tho West have been lighter, on ing to severe weather, but exports continue large. Corn is coming iorwaiderv fiecly and has. declined lQ cents and exports, lor the week 111 proba bly be verv h-nw. Oats are J cent lower. but pork nioJucts a i-li-tde stronircr. Oil has declined cent and coffee ad vanced Ji cent. In other market no im portHiit chance in prices is noticed, though increasing i-trcngth is in pro-peel in the TOAifeets for iron and steel products. Specu lations in cotton bus taken courage from the fact that icceipts h.ive recently de clined, and the improving market caused a bettor tone at many Southern points. The State ofTrade In the East Itcports from cities indicate some real in crease in trade, as ell as great confidence in the future. More activity is seen at 1109 ton in d-goodu and in shoes, though often at lo er prices. At Philadelphia increasing sales are seen in rtrvgoods, the Xorthwcst leading iu purchases, anil better orders for iron have caused additional furnaces to be gin lilast. Cincinnati reports general business open ing brisk. At Cleveland rolled Iron Is In active demand, and sow- advance is seen In ore with large sales. ij,kc n-elghts are con tracted for at some advance over last year. At Detroit countiy ordcr-are moie free, and eoine manufacturers w orking overtime. At Chicago general trade is larger than a 5 ear ago and collections easier, and an in crease of a third is seen in floi': and corn receipts; hut receipts oi Ttheatsnd lard are double, of rje three times :Uid of dressed beet four times last year's, r hllo a decrease i noted only in oat, barley and cured mtats. At Milwaukee cold Heather has n good ef fect, and the demand tor money in the lum ber and live stock trade is active. At Min neapolis extreme cold causes a slight de crease in trad-, but flour Is In better de . mand, the output being 173,009 barrels, against 113,000 btrrels last year, lortho week. At St. Paul prospects of trade are excellent and money easy, and at Omaha very easy, with trade improving. In tlicritlea ot the Southwest.

The output of precious metals In 1691 has been surpassed in only two years, according to YVclls-Farco's statement, nmounttne to $31,975,991 gold. $00 611,101 silver, $1S,26I.6G3 copper and $12,"5,7S0 lead. The Mexican output or silver was $i3,OC0,O00. . Annual reports of many other Industries show that the production in 1S91 has rarely, if ever, uccn equaled, and the new year be gins with no prospects of decrease In any important industry. Even the wool manu facturers appear to have used more wool last year tlian in any previous year, imports having been the largest on record. J'ittsbnrg Seventh In Bank Clearings.

HAPPENINGS IN THE WORLD OF LABOE 2Jo serious disturbances occurred yester day in connection with the Manchester Btreet railway strike beyond the stoning of cars in a few instances. A large lorce of police was required, however, to keep the crowds from becoming riotous, and had it not been for them there would probably have been some ugly work. Most of the disturbance has been raised by mill men and boys, not strikers. No cars were sent out on the 'Woods' Run branch as all attempts have failed. Both the management and the strikers are entering suits against each other on the least provocation. Chief Dispatcher Irwin was held in 1,000 bail for court on a charge of assault and battery, preferred by Will iam G. Gist Thomas Howard, who stoned a Woods' Kun car, was fined 510 and costs. J. C. Shoemaker, charged with inciting to riot, was held in f 1,000 bail for court. Mayor TFymsn Will Act. The committee appointed at the citizens' meeting yesterday called on Mayor "Wyman. The Mayor expressed his willingness to bring the matter before the management if it were possible. Mavor Gourlev was asked for his assistance, but declined, saving the strike was placed in the hands of the Alle gheny officials. After dark the attempt to run cars proved rather unpleasant. All the cars that passed "Washington and Beaver avenues were stoned. One of motormen on a "Western avenue car was cut slightly in the face by glass broken by a brick thrown by the nioh. The crowd at the "Washington avenne cross ing numbered about 300. The crowd was rather noisy and jeered all the passing motormen and conductors. About 10 o'clock a brick was thrown through the window of a "Western avenue car. Superintendent Mnth was on the car and went on to the barns. Here he collected 15 officers and marched on the mob. Ko violence was given or received, the crowd quietly dispersing. Crowds collected at Pennsylvania aDd Beaver avenues and Rebecca and Beaver, hut no violence was indulged iu further than hooting. During the day 23 cars were running, but after dark the number was re ilnced to seven one on the Rebecca line, four on the "Western and ttro on the Troy Hill branch. Striken Were Not There. The strikers were in secret session last evenirg and took no part in the violence. No attempt was made to operate the "Woods' Run cars during the day oi evening. The cars were kept running until 11 o'clock to accommodate the theater-goers. The man agement deniea the report that the new men were compelled to go armed. The company will endeavor to run a lull force of cars to day. The Troy Hill branch, where the first violence occurred, was the most- orderly last night, no extra police being necessary. Michael Roth was arrested on a charge of inciting riot, preferred by General Mana ger Greenwood. Svhile the patrol wagon was answering the call a car ran into it, injuring one ot the horses so badly that it will probably have to be shot. About id motors have been burned out in tho last two days by the inexperienced men. About 9 o'clock Julius Kaye, Samuel Steck and Frank Lobeck wers"arrested,for trjisg to make trouble at tho Washington avenue crossing. AFTER TREASURER FRAZIER. An Officer of Union "N'o. 10, Painters and Decorators, in JfctI for Embe7zlimp nt Accnsrd of Being Short at'Least S500 In His Areoants. Thocixi J. Frazier, Treasurer of Local Union No. 10, Brotherhood of Painters and Decorators of America, was sued before Al derman McMastcrs yesterday by D. E. Alexander for .keeping fraudulent accounts and embezzlement Frazier lives in Wil- kinsbor; and is well known there, and also among labor circles in this city. For some time, it is said, the trustees of the union baVe been suspicious of Frazier and feared that he was not quite straight in his accounts. An investigation was made and sufficient evidence was found to seri ously compromise him. A meeting was called and it was decided to have him put under arrest pending a thorough investiga tion. D. E. Alexander, on behalf of the trus tees, appeared before Alderman McMasters Thursday and swore out a warrant against him, alleging that lie had embezzled $500 from the union and had made false entries in his bank book to support his assertion that he had deposited the money in the Odd Fellows' Bank. Frazier got informa tion in some mauncr that the suit had been made and fled. A warrant was placed in the hands of Dctcctie Al Hirner, who failed to locate him in AVilkinsburg, but finally found him yesterday at the house of L. E. Haid, No. 1121 Pcnn avenue. Fra zier was remanded to jail to await a hearing Monday. Mr. I). E. Alexander was seen last night and saidthat Frazier had been purloining for the last four years. The amount, he said, might probably be from ?SO0 to 1,000. All the union asks is that Frazier makes repar ation, as he has considerable property. Another Signer an the Printers' Scale. The striking printers were made jubilant yesterday by the signing of their scale by the Peck, Phillips, "Wallace Company. They claim that they will have another sign'er for Monday. The officers of the or der are dividing the extra work that the union houses have among the men. DLL SAKTE in New York by Charles Theodore Murray in THE DISPATCH to morrow.
