The Market Said to lie !n the Hanil or a Strong Cliqn Al.argo Grist of Bullish Ncws-Otay Goes Up to 9.c Other Grains Qniet. . CHICAGO The wheat pit was the center of interest on the Board of Trade to-day. In fact, it nearly monopolized trading for a considerable part of the session. An influ ential factor was the published statement that the market was in tho control of a bull clique, with Standard Oil, the nitrate beds and the bonanza billions at its command. There were other causes for strength, how ever. Cables were strong and higher. XradstreeVs showed a decline of all available stocks of 2,250,000 bushels on both coasts. The weathor, too, was threatening. Then there was the Cincinnati Puce Current'! gloomy ciopsummarj. May wln-at closed yesterday at 914c On the cmb this morninic it sold as high asMJgc. Tho opening on the Boatd was somewhat ragged, with sales at !34c to 9lc. The ad vance was met b- a flood"of sales of long w heat, w lifch was held at a proflt.and of sales against calls" and, though many shoits were scaled into covering, the offer ings were so heavy that the market sagged off steadilv to aid Then there wasaieac tion toS3Jc; another let-ession to93ifc, fol lowed by a little moie firmness till noon. During the last hour the market continued unett'el. May sold off to 93c: reacted to 93c; held lor some time around that figuie, thenneir the close shot up to and closed firm at Xz.

CRITICISM OF AN EASTERN MAN. Fqnirrel Hill Values Two Tears Affo and 3 hose Lately Realized. s" FEATURES OF JI0NET AXD SPECULATION It was reported on the street yesterday that D. H. Hosletter had purchased the property on the southeast corner ot Fourth avenue and Grant street on which to erect a larce office building. On inquiry at the office of W. A. Herrdn & Sons, the agents, they had no information to give other than that JIf. Hostetter had made an ofier lor the place, which was under consideration by the heirs, who live in Philadelphia. The result will not be known for several days. Squirrel Hill Tahies. The sale oi the Edward House tract of 19 acres in the Twenty-second ward, Squirrel Hill, at abont 52,o00 an acre naturally leads to a comparison of present values in that quarter and those prevailing two years ago when the first important sales were made. At that time Senator Flinn and two or three others, one of whom was a Philadel phia man, went into the market with both leet, to use a common phrase, and quietly picked up, through the agency of Ira JL Bnrchfield, nearly 200 acres. The highest price these gentlemen paid was ?2,000 an acre; the lowest 1,600. Outsiders, in dis cussing these transactions at the time, re garded these values little less than exorbi tant for land so isolated and without any apparent prospect of improved transporta tion. The park existed only on paper. Events have shown that the purchasers had a correct conception of the outcome of the district. It has been transformed from a wilderness into a fashionable residence quarter. Values have kept pace with im provements, as show n by recent sales, but they have not yet reached an extravagant altitude. That they will go still higher is as certain as anything can be. Several large tracts have been marked up.within the last few days. This advance is based on the prospect of the introduction of rapid transit and water the present year. How Others See IJs. The representative of a New York notion store'was in the cify yesterday looking fora stand in which to establish a branch houBe. In a short interview he said: "I hate seen enough to conince me that Pittsburg is a great place. Your people are hustlers. But there is one drawback. There is no in ducement for outsiders to embark infbusi ness owing to the impossibility of seeming suitable rooms. I have been looking around all day without finding anything to suit the business I wish to start, I think business is too much concentrated here. It should push out more toyard the East End, where the bulk of the buyers live. I would be glad to. get a place ou almost any of the prominent avenues, but there is nothing there to suit requirements. I was over in Allegheny and found it about as destitute of business stands as Pittsburg. Your moneyed men must take steps to remedy this defect in order to enable the city to re alize the most from its opportunities: "This criticism, which is half a .eulogy, is sub mitted for the consideration of owners and capitalists. Business News and Gossip. , The scarcity of business houses is a per ennial cause for complaint. High rents is another. Black & Baird yesterday closed a lease with Lee S. Smith & Sons, for three years, of a part of the Inh block, on Sixth street, at an advance oi && per cent over the lonner rate. ,., It is reported that L. IE Green, manager of the Mill Creek distilleij- of Cincinnati, the biggist property in the trust, will be made 1'iesident of the Distillers and Cattle Feed ers' Company. Pnnxsntawney and Clavville are to be brought into closer lelntions by an electric railroad. James IC North Is Piesident of a company just formed for that puipose.

Coalers Quite Neglected, Except Reading, in Which a Small Business Is Done A Re ported Agreement With Sliners Boosts Tennessee Coal Bonds Quiet. New York, Feb. 18. Tho stock market to daj continued to diminish in volume, but a flim temper prevailed, with slight, and In most cases insignificant, fluctuations in the genual list, while the important movements were confined to about half a dozen stocks moved by special causes. There was less heard about gold shipments, and the appar ent buying for foreign account stimulated a somewhat better feeling among tho profes sionals, and the market, despite its dullness, presented duiing most of the day a strong fiont. Western Union was one of tho most promi nent features of the day, and with the re iteration of the rumors that the stock will be placed upon a G per cent basis soon, it rose steadilj", though slowly, and retained most of its improvement at tho close. Rich mond and West Point sank into oblivion, and the Coalers, except Beading, which showed only an oidinary amount of busi ness, were quite neglepted. N'orthem Pacific pteferred was the only Shaie which was subjected to pressure, and the declaration ot the usual 1 per cent dividend tailed to elicit any response other than the recovery of the early fractional loss. New England lailed to show any of its late strength. Giangers were quiet throughout, except St. Paul. There were a fewmatelial advances among the low-piiced shares, the most conspicuous being tlie Lake Erie and Western, which responded to the rumors of a dividend on theprofeired, tho latter using 3i per cent. Tennessee Coal was, also, especially conspicuous in the forenoon by a rise or-2per cent on tho leported settlement of difficulties with the miners. Another feature was Hocking Valley, which ioso nearly 2 per cent on what was considered in side buying: but a stop order of 500 shares broke Edison 1, only a portion of which was recovered. Tlie general market opened fairly active and strong at advances extending to fi pel cent; but the subsequent dealings lailed to increase this advantage much, and while a larger number "of stocks were tiaded in, the transactions weie of the hand to mouth order, and fluctuations weie ou a strict parity with, the business. Sonio change in temper "occurred duiing the day, but the close w as quiot and firm, generally at small li actional gains over last night's" figures.
